Nightmare Before Christmas - Short Review

[TaskForceSixTwoSix]

I remember my mother taking me to this film when I was super young. At that age, I couldn't really appreciate its artistic value. It was just too dark and twisted for me to really like back then. I was really surprised to see that this film developed a cult following. Especially amongst girls who seem to have a crush on the lead character. One of my ex-girlfriends said she grew up sleeping with a doll of that character in her bed. I thought she was crazy.

[SeekerTheFox]

i love this movie! one of my favorites!

[MastahAjSanchez]

wtf 

[SuperMarioandluigi12]

[MsMariosonic]

[MarksmanFromTheMoon]

"But come on, kids love this stuff."

Oh, James, you have NO idea how it has taken over dA.

[arby299]

i dont care if im 15 i still love this movie

[oblivexx]

Does tim Burten still work with stop-animation?

[2anime4ever]

@oblivexx Yes, this time a film called Frankenweenie. It's based on another one of Burton's short films that he did on 1984, two years right after Vincent. I don't believe there's a trailer for it yet, but it is said that it's coming out on October 5th of this year. And so far, no Johnny Depp.

[J5MARLON]

@oblivexx I guess you didnt see the Corpes Bride and he is releasing a new Frankenweenie in stop-motion and in 3D.

[Stormeris]

ahhh, i loved this movie :)

[shannoncleveland]

love this movie!

[SirPreyasThe619]

[0djunder0]

@SirPreyasThe619

ahhhhhh...

[sywtp]

im baaatttttman



[almightykenshin]

One of my all-time favorites.

[Psychstix]

Jack = Curious Genius

Jack ≠ Emo Representative

[AnonimusQualquer]

When I was little I always found this movie scary. Okay, I still think it is scary nowadays, but it is good.

[CrazyBoyStudios]

this review = nostalgic, 'nuff said.

[DeeEll1]

best movie ever

[the3questionmarkguys]

he forgot oogie boogies death dam it was awesome

[NinuFulMetal]

I usually freak out easy, but this was AWESOME to me!

[EvilOutbreak18]

It came out in 93 so a trailer in 00? Don't think so unless maybe a Disney channel one

[QuietIndigo]

favorite movie

[0111Daniel]

I always wanted to see this movie since I saw a trailer of it, somewhere in 1998-1999 I believe? Maybe 2000?

I will see it some day!

[KeithLovesLordJesus7]

Awesome James! I Love Your Work AND The Nightmare Before Christmas Brother! Good luck With The Angry Video Game Nerd Movie Too! Blessings ALWAYS! :-)! <3.

[MewFoxe]

Nightmare Before Christmas came out the day I was born.

[wildcat2087]

still on of my favorit movies

[TevanaZelta]

I think this is the only movie that I know of that uses Christmas and Halloween together and made it work

[PAC0SANCHEZ]

They made so much fucking movie off of the merchandise from this fucking movie.

[cHeEzZo187]

Kinda remind me of corpse Bride.

[crcoghill]

my favorite movie of all time!!!

[jetfoxproductions]

i never watched this but i hate this world in kingdom hearts, the first is a bitch to get around, and the second has the most annoying boss fight in the game. not to mention sora turns ugly in that world.

but that is the only impression i have of it. it's cool to see the story in kingdom hearts is legit.

but even i have to admit i can watch this and see the amount of work put into this, as an artist i have to respect that.

[ToxicDevil93]

I love this movie.

[Lightemupstudios]

Missnewvegas wearing stuff with him on it? Never saw anything with him on it but this movie used to scare the sit out of me

[missNewVegas]

@Lightemupstudios I mean all the merchandise that is sold from this movie..there is a lot. And I agree with you, this movie scared me a lot when I was little but I loved it lol

[missNewVegas]

I grew up with this movie, I love it..I bet most of the kids wearing shit with Jack Skellington on it don't know a damn thing about the movie..or that it is a movie. Long live the good ol' 90's

[missNewVegas]

@AlecRocksTV Well than you just keep watching the shit outta that movie and make it clear you're a real fan..:D

[GxAccountsxSucks]

@missNewVegas What, you ask every kid with that shirt on what it is of? How is it that only people who 'grew up in the 90's' and who weren't little kids in the 90's get to know what this awesome movie is?

[missNewVegas]

@GxAccountsxSucks No definitely not every kid, but one in particular kid was wearing a jack skellington weird fashion hat, and I asked if he thought that movie was awesome or what and he was confused as ever. I said The Nightmare before Christmas clear the confusion, and he said I've never heard of it but it sounds retarded..*facepalm* BUT I'm happy to hear that there are people who appreciate this movie and didn't grow up with it, thats all that matters to me really :)

[soilder5272]

@missNewV

[MegaBbones]

@missNewVegas dude, im only 10 and i wear jack stuff and oogie stuff. i know every character in the movie, wat bugs r in oogie, and all the names

[missNewVegas]

@MegaBbones That's great!

[MrLarsiboi]

Tim Burton is the best!



[ThePatinho2]

dudes this movie is a masterpeace

[thebadindo]

My name is Vincent ha!

[APERCUPETO]

Pumpkin Child!!!

[TheCaelanator]

@pistolplz1

I concur!

All hail Jack Skellington!

[pistolpz1]

awesome movie!

[SammEater]

This movie is perfect for both holidays, I love watching this with my family and friends on Halloween and Christmas. :D

[KittyfantasticoFTW]

@LadyBludgeon is there anything that you're a fan of? Because I bet you fans of that are more obsessive than most TNBC fans.

[Remi8193K]

Jack Skellington kicks ass in Kingdom Hearts

[CheshireCatGrins]

I still love it till this day.

[iiJoshbromley]

and what an amazing film it is

[MrHossCartwright]

I like his reviews where he's talking normal and not purposely cussing in every sentence.

[pennjersey83]

what a great movie

[sonicdude624]

Red: IM BATMAN!

[BikiniKillBlondie]

I still love this movie!

[MSteniente77]

dosent Jack Skeleton look like Slenderman?

[WeatlyTheMoron]

I totally agree with everything you said about the movie and the nightmare before christmas is one of my all time favourite movies, its original, different and in that classical tim Burton style

[mozzmanau]

This movie lost me with all the dribbly bullshit musical crap

[KatsDoppelganger]

Watch it on Christmas or Halloween? Shiiiit! I'll watch this movie all day erryday! XD

[humanconvertile]

The definitive christmas movie for emos... for some reason.

[GayIndianTrollSciety]

@humanconvertile

typical new generation of faggots you are.

Just because emo used this, this movie is not emo.

[shrek740]

@GLaDOSabc but he said that everyone is some kind of monster. They're just normal kids.

[shrek740]

That "witch" was a trick-or-treater, not a witch.

[GLaDOSabc]

@shrek740 there were 2 witches though

[ilikemartialarts]

one of the best animated movies ever made!

[bentony12]

my brother loved this movie he was 5

[cokokolamuffin97]

I love this movie but my friend hates it. I cant see why...

[ProtoSnake]

Let's hope "NBC" will be in KH3.

[EeveeSpirit]

@ProtoSnake It was in the other two, so I'm guessing. I want Tarzan back! xD

[dabomb1111]

@ProtoSnake That is if kh3 EVER GETS ANNOUNCED

[SandyToesSantos]

@ProtoSnake Lets hope KH3 is out some time before we all die of old age -___-

[crcoghill]

@ProtoSnake i heard and saw it is. and sora gets a new look for christmas town.

[DocKing236]

@ProtoSnake Are you kidding me it's in 2 fckin games i think being in the games period was dumb to start with i mean it's such a shitty movie .

[FrOoOstBite]

@ProtoSnake that's my favorite world in KH franchise :D

[n543576]

@ProtoSnake humph lets hope we GET a kh3

[Vleesball]

i hate this film

[kometgraffone]

@Vleesball fuck you asshole

[MrDinocks]

@Spanky989 She hates all animation, because she thinks that it's only for kids.

[OddSqodd]

Coooool. Check out our sketch comedy group!

[TheAusom]

well this movie when i was a kid i liked this movie but later at an older age i could appreciate the visuals, songs,plot more in depth and made it the only christmas/halloween movie i ever liked because i hate christmas/halloween movies they all suck except the grinch the animated one

[7Somerset]

What does the nerd think of Coraline??

[flamesdemon19]

Kingdom Hearts ROCKS!lol

[cureformee]

jack looks like slenderman, the way he is in black and hes tall

[Loudmouth0398]

This actually believe it or not my favorite movie and was my ex girlfriends to (booschipmunk)

[funkymonkeysofdoom]

Trough growing up, I'd always have mixed feelings about this movie. When I was about 4 and 5 I loved it! Then after not seeing it a while I watched it again, and it scared the shit out of me. Then, when I was 8, I watched it again and i liked it again. weird

[ChaosSolider1]

Why does he look like...*gulp* Slenderman?

[Caleb1upman]

Review Toy Story by Pixar in 1995.

[joepassive]

i love this reivew, i was totally ready for him to hate on this movie, but it's all good. good movie !

[Riesenpuller]

maybe the reason this movie is good and the batman movie sucks is because this movie wasnt directed by tim burton, but batman was.

[baycrum267]

I used to be scared of this movie but now I love it. Why are you always bashing CG?

[jasonluu2]

Is how long justin biebers dick is.

[jasonluu2]

@jasonluu2 Or even smaller.

[MrDinocks]

@jasonluu2 80 minutes?

[MrDinocks]

A girl and I were talking about this movie. She said that she hated it because it's for kids. I asked her "how?" and she replied "because it's animated"

I have never facepalmed harder.

[SOSspecialdlover]

@MrDinocks facepalm! id floor her!

[MrDinocks]

@SOSspecialdlover I should have floored her!

[DarkestDion]

@MrDinocks You should tell her about Robot Chicken lmao

[linuslillen01]

@MrDinocksstill thought... isn't it... for kids who likes being scared? i mean... just enjoy the film.

[MrDinocks]

@linuslillen01 It's for the whole family. That's why I facepalmed. Also due to the fact that there are TONS of animated movies and series that aren't made exclusively for kids.

[linuslillen01]

@MrDinocks show her Drawn Together. if she says it's for kids...

She is a douche that dosen't deserve to be talked about. say hello from "Little Linus" when you do that :3

[MrDinocks]

@linuslillen01 HA! The first minute of the series is enough to prove her wrong.

[LadyBludgeon]

I dislike the fans of this film. They need to step down and bring their fascination of this film down a notch. They're just as annoying or worse than the freaks of Japanese animation.

I love your take and review of this film. BTW, Jack Skeleton had over eight hundred different types of heads to be exact. :)

[Rullaruntisanden]

@MrDinocks

Show her some hentai :)

[Stenare21]

@MrDinocks Sounds like my girlfriend, I myself love animated movies. But she doesnt because "it's for kids".... I facepalm so much, so hard each time I try to convince her it's not

[MrDinocks]

@Stenare21 Just tell her that just because something's child FRIENDLY doesn't mean that it's JUST for kids. Movies are an art form too.

[LadyBludgeon]

@Stenare21 If you facepalm so hard why are you still with her? Seriously,It sounds like that relationship isn't going to last long. Stop trying to change your girlfriends' interests and find one that has yours. Whiny little boys... why is youtube crawling with them? *now that's something to facepalm about*

[MrDinocks]

@LadyBludgeon Wait, seriously, are you dissing everyone who's replied to my comment? Yet you're complaining about whiny little boys on Youtube? Grow up.

[dabomb1111]

@LadyBludgeon Did he even say it was his girlfriend...? Stfu until you know what you're talking about.

[Stenare21]

@LadyBludgeon What one should really facepalm about, is how everyone takes everything one say too serious.

[GodofTheForge]

@MrDinocks she seems like the kind of person whose head would do a complete 360 if you showed her the first Ghost in the Shell movie. see if she still says it's for kids

[MrDinocks]

@GodofTheForge I know right. She wouldn't have the patience to watch it anyway.

[GodofTheForge]

@MrDinocks shame. she's missing out on some damn good stuff

[MrDinocks]

@GodofTheForge You sound like a drug dealer :)

But I agree with you definitely.

[LadyBludgeon]

@MrDinocks Really? Are you like 10 or something? If the bitch doesn't like something she doesn't like it. Gesh. No need to beat up a dead horse till it's entrails spews out of its orifices.

[LadyBludgeon]

@GodofTheForge Ghost in the Shell is boring. Yea lets show her an adult themed animation that will cause her to fall asleep. If you're going to convert, do it right! Try Death Note, Ninja Scrolls something that has excitement to it.

[stlouisrocker100]

@MrDinocks Well then she should watch Adult Swim. Lot's of animation there, but none of it for kids.

[bakugancollecterZ]

@MrDinocks Yeah, I was actually watching this movie when my friends came over, they said "what are you a kid?"...let's just say those kids are no longer...breathing...

[LadyBludgeon]

@bakugancollecterZ Forever alone. >_>

[LadyBludgeon]

@MrDinocks I dislike it's fans. Bunch of teeny popper shit heads, and yes I would say that to their faces too.

[MrDinocks]

My favourite Christmas film. Definitely a must-see.

[VictimofDarkness86]

one of my favorite movies....

i love tim burton...:)

[Pegashy123]

Favorite movie of all time <3

[supersonicmike1]

i hated this movie

[Setosson]

I fucking love this movie, I remeber when it came out in theaters for Disney 3d. I smoked the biggest bowl I have ever smoked in my life and drank a 40.

It was amazing...

[Someguy226X]

@Setosson so people hav to smoke to enjoy disney movies... thats sad

[NMCLPokemon725]

jack reminds me of the sender man

[YOSUP315]

@NMCLPokemon725 they say the more you know about him, the more he haunts you!

[macross25]

One of the most classic movies made, and its simply not Christmas or Halloween without this one!

[TheSuperMarioShow]

I watch it on November because nothing really happens on November and after Halloween you don't want it to end but right around the corner is Christmas so I think it a filler between mouths! :D

[PhantommenacePC]

@bassie52 I have it on ps2, pretty fun and certainly interesting to explore the worlds.

[NodDisciple1]

@PhantommenacePC Ooh!  Oogies Revenge or Kingdom Hearts? :?

[animals68]

The one film you can play at both Christmas and Haloween :P

[nintendude24]

@misternebojsa I'm a Banana

[nintendude24]

@patu8010 The same people who made Coraline are making one called Paranorman I think,it's probably also stop motion but I don't know,the trailer is out I didn't watch it though.

[angall3]

@nintendude24 ive seen the trailer and, its kinda hard to tell just from what they show you, but my guess would be animated, or a mix

[jrbaconcheez]

It's a Halloween movie, hence the release date of October 29th.

[ThatGuyWhoEdits]

I wonder how the movie would turn out if he went into the turkey door...

[Serpoo]

One of my favorite Holiday movies ever.

[Trueman666production]

holy shit my names vincent

[misternebojsa]

I'm Batman :)

[PichuSkywalker]

@misternebojsa you are?

[misternebojsa]

@PichuSkywalker it was in one scene he said about Batman then scene "I'm Batman" :)

[PichuSkywalker]

@misternebojsa iknow iknow (;

[After4th]

It's still a well known film and a cult classic in many parts of the world. This film seems to be big in Japan and explains why Halloween Town is featured in the Kingdom Hearts games.

[wisecritic2000]

i think if you want something to look real, blend into its live action enviroment, accurate to science by movement use stop motion & to look cartoonish use cgi

[DCJMS]

could you review the two games that were released in 2005 oogie's revenge for PS2 and the pumpkin king for gameboy advance



[bassie52]

@DCJMS You know Oogie's Revenge is one of the most rare games right?

[ObeyYourMaster123]

I find this movie creepy as fuck for some reason :) When I watch it I feel sick in my stomach because of the characters. I hate this kind of movies

[xXJGP04Xx]

@bananasqueek both lol

[bananasqueek]

i dont get it, should i watch this on halloween or christmas?

[johnsnake71]

Long legs and long arms = Endermen.

[iceman78772]

Hit 8 for (insert some stupid shit here)

[omalor]

@iceman78772 actually hitting 8 shows Jack Skelenton doing his scary face, so thanks!

[iceman78772]

@omalor My mistake: Hit 8 for (insert some stupid scary shit here)

[YacubCubby13579ZR]

@patu8010 true, but it was made by the same person. I don't know, to me that doesn't count

[GoMaster5]

Did anyone notice that the mountain "Mount Who" from the live action "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" seems to resemble the twisted hill top from this movie durring I believe Jack's Lamment. The scene which is at 3:17. I don't know if this is just a coincidence or a refference.

[Erwinator1000]

don't they make a new stop-motion movie called Frankenweenie?

[rafatheshit]

>>>---------->

[SOOMPiBABY]

Wow he reviewed one of my favorite movies of all time ^_^

[TheBansheeBomb]
