Thanks for the video.

I've always wondered where the Burton on Burton book got those quotes of his explaining why he hired Keaton in the role instead of using a He-Man type actor like Stallone or Schwarzenegger. I don't think such inspiring casting has been repeated ever since.

I love the bit of where Burton said he tried to avoid using too much exposition as possible.

Excellent find! Burton got it, he just got the character and his motivations.
