Beetlejuice and Nightmare Before Christmas director Tim Burton gets a ‘weird, scary feeling’ from ‘disturbing’ AI technology, and finds modern tech 'depressing'
The Hollywood filmmaker, known for his morbid style, says AI and advanced technology give him the heebie-jeebies.
“I hope these things are used for good and not for evil,” he continued. “I believe, and I hope, that the human part of it is important and will always be there,” he added, optimistically. “I could be wrong but that’s what you hope for.” The exhibition, which will run until April 21 2025, has already sold more than 32,000 tickets ahead of Tim officially inaugurating the display. It comes after Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice broke records with its opening Box Office weekend. He described looking at the pieces as “like walking through kind of a fun house”.
“But they did it in a way that shows a journey and a process that, although I can’t look at things really specifically, it has a good vibe and a good feeling to me. The whole layout is beautifully done, the lighting and the sound and the vibe of it.” The studio where Burton works has been recreated to offer a “rare private glimpse into his creative process”. The exhibition’s finale will be a new specially created cinema experience, showing a newly commissioned film, which will give voice to some of Burton’s key collaborators and will be shown in a bespoke art-deco space reminiscent of the cinemas Burton would visit as a child growing up in Hollywood.
