  - I think it just refers to their budget, not their quality. -- nm - mara Aug 4, 11:06 2
    - B-movies, in Burton's case of the 1950's Sci Fi variety, have influenced today's filmmakers, so today we have a "B-movie aesthetic" - con_carne Aug 4, 11:13
    - Typically low budget, yes, though I think that's a bit too simplistic of a definition. It's kind of like "I know it when I see it" almost. -- nm - Don Homer Aug 4, 11:10
  - Nah, they're campy. Big difference. -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 4, 11:06 1
    - Speaking of B-movies, Parana 3D! Animals eating people + 3D = $$$$$? -- nm - Qale Aug 4, 11:07
