I just watched the Nightmare Before Christmas last night for like the millionth time. The film, as simple as it may seem, never ceases to amaze me. So much thought and detail, man I love it. I wish Tim Burton would do more films for Disney. Anywho just wanted to see if anyone else loves it as much as I do.
Oh and on a side note, new Tim Burton film coming out on Christmas Day. Totally excited to see it!

Stop-motion animation is one of those sadly dying artforms that never ceases to impress me. It requires fantastic attention to the smallest details and agonizingly long amounts of time. In the same vein, claymation things like Aardman Animations (Wallace and Gromit) are big to me also.
I saw the signs up for the Haunted Mansion Holiday but I didn't have time to go ...

*nods* agreed its a totally lost art. Wallace and Gromit is hysterical, so was Chicken Run.

Rome...just a note...might wanna check the thread title before you post...just some friendly advice.
Anyways.
Haunted mansion holiday is hilarious...and they did new music for it. The charachter models are awesome and the changes are really cool.
The music is a bunch of rewritten christmas songs.
For example:
Deck the Halls=Wreck the Halls
Theres a song called Scary bells too.
But the really neat part of the music is the music on the ride, which is NMBC morphed with christmas music and the Haunted mansion music.
...and Shooraijin...its still there...up through Christmas and New Years.
I went to disney world...didnt get to go in that haunted mansion...I got too busy.
Alita star and me and some other people are probably going back next year cuz we love disney and want to explore certain parks more.

I have this movie on VHS, and I have seen it about 10 times. The movie is awesome. Yeah, the animation is classic, and almost better than what we do now. The movie was rereleased on DVD not to long ago, I think. ::scratches head::
But yeah, I loved this movie, and I suggest all of you see it.

Yeah it was, I need to buy it to replace my old warped up VHS. I really think Disney's traditional animation wouldn't be suffering as much if they still wrote stories and created worlds like this one. That's just my opnion anyway. I don't want to get started on my "what's wrong with Disney" rant.

The Nightmare Before Christmas is one of my all time favorite movies and has some of the best songs in a Disney movie! I haven't gotten around to buying it on dvd either though. I always liked to sing along with the music and I remember when I was like 11 and the movie had just come out on video, me and one of my friends would just watch it over and over....lol ^_^ I always thought Jack made a better Santa Claus than that big jolly guy anyway. ^_-

Definately a classic, the characters looked awesome( I like the two faced mayor and Oogi Boogie myself) Stop motion is definately a dying art as the profit of a endevor becomes the bottom line. Remeber the California Raisns and thier assorted commercials and special? Places don't want to invest the time and money anymore.
