So for my History of Cinema class, I have to write a research paper on how German Expressionism has influenced Tim Burton’s films. I would just like to know some of the key points that I should include in my paper. And also, would it be okay to state that German Expressionism ‘branched’ into the horror genre? Tim Burton was greatly influenced by Universal 1930’s horror films. No BS answers, please.

I wrote a paper on German Expressionism for the film section of my local newspaper last year.. The main points you want to know are lighting, set, and acting. German Expressionist films tended to be dark (Robert Wiene’s "The Cabinet of Dr. Caligary", F.W. Murnau’s "Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde," "Faust," "The Last Laugh," "Sunrise," "Nosferatu", and Fritz Lang’s "Metropolis," and "Dr. Mabuse" series..) and the sets were pretty elaborate and bizzare.. Definitely the classic form of cinema, oppose to realism– which includes on location shooting, etc. The acting, self explanatory, very expressionistic because there was no sound yet in cinema (this was the 1920s and 30s), much like the films of Chaplin and Buster Keaton. Anyways– all these elements have somewhat influenced Tim Burton’s films.

As for "branching into horror," it’s a bit hard to say. Murnau seemed to be very much included supernatural elements into his films, and Nosferatu, Faust, Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde were all early horrors, but actually German Expressionism eventually branched into Film Noir (early Hollywood crime cinema) as some of the German directors– Fritz Lang, F.W. Murnau, etc. moved to America. Once again, many of these elements discussed you can find in Film Noir.

Hope that cleared some things up.

I’m planning to get maybe Relay E/Antidote bindings (Any ideas on which one to get?) and the F22W boots from Salomon, with the Burton Feather. I was just wondering if the bindings would fit with the board? And if say, size 7/8 boots with the Medium bindings?

My shoe size is about 8 and I really don’t have anywhere to go try on the boots or the bindings, so I’m kind of stuck on terms of knowing what size I need. I’m just starting out boarding and have only gone a couple times, but I’m getting a season pass up to one of the local mountains and planning on going lots later on.

Any additional info you need just ask. Thanks!

You should never buy snowboard boots without first trying them on. If you plan to buy them online then you should try them in a snowboard shop first. Having the boots fit properly is really important it’ll affect your riding and your feet will get tired and sore and you won’t have as much fun. So try to go to a snowboard shop and get someone to help you find a boot size that fits right.

With Snowboards and bindings there isn’t usually any problems with fit/compatibility so you won’t have a problem there.
edit: oh yeh, i forgot about the base plates, the bit that attaches the binding to the board. Burton do have a different hole arrangement on the board, but some bindings do come with replacement base plates to fit Burton boards, just ask the shop person when buying the board/bindings.

With boots and bindings it is best to try them together to see if they fit properly (you’ll have to go to a shop for this aswell). However, most of the time this shouldn’t be an issue, just make sure you get the right sized bindings for your boots.

If you really can’t get to any snowboard shops off the mountain, you could wait till you go to the ski mountain and buy your entire setup there, that way you’ll have the correct sizes and get some professional advice on your gear. However, i highly recommend you go to a snowboard shop off mountain before your trip that way you can take your time to think about which gear you really want. Also board shops off mountain tend to be cheaper then ones on mountain.

I would like to know the value of Burton stock, as well as their 52 week highs and lows if this information is available. Does anyone know, or know where to find, this information?

I am looking to get a new burton snowboard, but I was wondering if I could use the bindings of my old (off-brand) snowboard instead of buying new ones.
I don’t really want to pay the extra $100 for new bindings

If you’re referring to the new channel system (IST) of mounting your bindings you can still mount old style 3-hole type bindings on it. If you’re spending cash on new IST based board you might as well get EST bindings from Burton to get the best out of it

With the NEW EST infinite stance options are only the beginning. The real story lies beneath your boots. Standard baseplates mute board feel and flex, and limit cushioning. With EST you get it all. A smoother ride, a more sensitive connection and a truer flex pattern. React quicker, ride with more speed and control through rough terrain and butter das muffin with newfound precision. You and your board become one. NEW EST Baseplate Short-Glass Fiber/Nylon Composite Baseplates Air Frame Hi-Back B3 Gel Heel Cushioning Super Capstrap Stainless Steel, Dual Component Smooth Glide Buckles Response: E=MC2 Available in-store at Redding Sports Ltd or Online.
