A Filmmaker's Guide to: 5 Films by Tim Burton
Tim Burton is probably best known for his incredibly strange animation style, but even before his animated films Burton was a huge success having directed the 80s/90s Batman films before Nolan but not the first of their kind. Tim Burton's use of a regular cast during the 90s and the 2000s made it easier for audiences to identify what they wanted to see on the screen as he was constantly trying methods which really did appear on screen as oddities in the world of film. His attempts as shaping actors like Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter were a massive success with both actors creating some of their best work under the guidance of Tim Burton.

A Filmmaker's Guide to: 5 Films by Quentin Tarantino
Quentin Tarantino is one of this generation's most recognisable directors with his style of jazz music and brutal violence, stereotypes of racial, gender and occupational qualities have often been admired and criticised by many people who work in and out of the film industry - especially those upset with his over-usage of the derogatory term for African American people. Throughout his film career, he has been adamant with his attempt to convey stories that are normally subversive from the main key genres, historically and both contemporary.

Best Horror Movies Based on Real Life and True Crime Stories
In actuality, this might be better titled, best true crime horror movies that I can actually stomach. Not that the ones dissected aren’t deserving and universally acknowledged. But the horror movies listed afterwards are just too startlingly real for me and would inflict permanent damage to determine if they measure up.

As we move in to the 1990s, we see that film's budget is seriously starting to expand. We also see that everyone is trying to make the next great epic in whatever style that may be.

Everyone is all about making the next classic film to be remembered as we approach the end of a millennia.

A Filmmaker's Guide to: 20 Films of the 1980s
During the 1980s, we get more of a mixture of film, genres begin to collide and characters are multi-faceted experiences of light and dark in human nature. From extreme levels of Sci-Fi to the High Drama Renaissance, this era is one of the most fascinating for film historians because it is in this era where film expands beyond our wildest imaginations. It comes with epics, horror movies, biopics, adaptations, teen drama, comedies, action and adventure, romance and so much more. It is truly one of the most diverse decades in the history of American film.

Ten Doctor Who Ranges From Big Finish That Are Worth A Try
But First: The Worlds of Doctor Who & The Worlds of Big Finish These two box sets make a good jumping off point for the main Big Finish ranges (from when they were released in 2014 and 2015 respectively). They're big crossover events hat have the feel of a, good old fashioned, aniversary specail. They arent big, ambitious free for alls though. Like many Big Finish box sets they have a handfull of mostly self contained episodes with an overarching storyline and many of the characters from different ranges (and episodes) don't actually meet. For anyone who prefers to dive into things, stop reading here and go listen to these two to get you started.
