SteamFirst: Allow me to posit a theory: Tim Burton has access to time travel. You see, after doing his two Batman movies, he was done with the franchise. That said, he still has some reverence for it. So, when he traveled into the future, he was mortified to learn that Ben Affleck would be playing The Dark Knight in the Superman Vs. Batman flick. So mortified that he went back in time and directed Mars Attacks!; the aliens doing nothing but complaining of this fact through the entire movie. (Affleck! Batman! Bahbahbeh AFFLECK!) This hypothesis falls apart once one takes into account the existence of Batman Forever and Batman & Robin. Yes, my friends, you have just read a preemptive digression. Take that as you will.

Cows. Save the cows! Listen to a man whom you never see. Place barbecues and hydrants that shoot fire to protect your herd. Fend off wave after wave of alien invaders.

From the outset it just seemed to be a Plants vs Zombies clone, albeit with a few twists and a singular winding path. Scepticism remained with me for about two levels and soon I was whooping and laughing, or at least mildly excited to see what the next level would unveil.
