And the Award Goes To...

Okay, I know I said that my next blogs would be focusing on particular films that Tim has been involved with, but I decided that I wanted to do a little information about all of Tim Burton's awards (both ones that he has won, and ones he has been nominated for) because even being nominated is a honor.
