Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas (Part III)

[TheCaelanator]

I am a Jack-o-Lantern headed scarecrow with sticks for hands with my clothes, but torn and ravaged, except my shoes are OK.

[NimhShambler]

Good ol' Jean Luc Picard.

[toolworks]

basically the same story without sally or oogie boogie! Tim Burton is a good story developer and poet!!

[Chambers4181]

jack was'nt hurt

[Chambers4181]

i want a gumby and pokey from the grave a baby doll possesed by a demon a monsterus train with tentcale tracks a ghoulish puppet wheelding and ax

a man eating plant disgusied as a reef and a vampire teddy bear with very sharp teeth for christmas

[Bobzeaux]

@Chambers4181

Seriously, Disney needs to get on track and start manufacturing THOSE toys. *lol*

[Jonnykproductions]

Nothing beats This Story. We watch every Halloween and Christmas. Well at least I do.

[invaderpink]

jack skellington.....bringing a new meaning to holiday spirit since 1993

[Bobzeaux]

I know MY holiday spirit was forever changed since then. ;D *lol*

[arandomperson3]

@invaderpink I know! I mean all these years I thought Halloween didn't have an official mascot like Santa, Cupid, or the easter Bunny, but then after years and years I finnally watche Nightmare and I'm like Oh yeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaa!

[woollybully100]

i think patrick stewart captures a lot of the humor and whimsy with his reading, so perfect as the narrator. he should have done the opening narrations.

[HistoryOfHoles]

If gluttony is one of the christian sins,why's Santa fat?

[Bobzeaux]

Maybe it's genetic.

[HistoryOfHoles]

Hehehe, good point. :)

[invaderpink]

@HistoryOfHoles its a glandular problem! lol

[arandomperson3]

@HistoryOfHoles The actual St.Nicolis wasn't fat. Coca Cola just mutated santa in the early 20's and created this jolly old fat man in a red suit who gave presents to children to put in their advertisements.

[VamJirachi]

The Santa looks scary XD

[MoonlightSkelet0n]

I've always wanted a crypt! Thanks Santa Jack!

[littlenatnatz101]

I can't believe there's no Sally OR Oogie Boogie in the book, but its still totally awesome!!

and why did they call Jack "ugly and sick"? it doesnt matter if it rhymes or not haha, he's neither ;) i love jack he's the best ever yayy

[Waiting4Shalom]

He's not ugly and sick! O.o

According to Tim, The Nightmare Before Christmas was inspired by a display window in the mall.

The employees were taking down the halloween decorations down and replacing them with holiday decor. So, the window was half halloween and halfway christmas. Thus, equaling NBC ten years later!

[Bobzeaux]

Funny how so many people object to the "ugly and sick" line. *lol*

[AndieTiggerPyro]

@Bobzeaux I have to object too. Jack isn't ugly and sick! He's epic!

[arandomperson3]

@Bobzeaux Well yea because jack is a long, pale, handsome gentleman as well as the non-malevolent ruler of all darkness and fear. He's not sick he's a freakin SKELETON! Skeleton's don't have organs or blood that can get infected!

[cesarjimenezanimator]

@arandomperson3 He was ugly and sick to the real world people who saw a whole "NEW" Santa Claus.

[brand1818]

man i heart me tim burton!!!

love

brand!(huuuge TB FAN!!!!)

[buciok]

this to who think this is sad, do not worry you know this isnt bad, after all its the first design, not the movie thats purely sublime though this is not so jolly and sweet, it sure is a wonderful treat.

[MoonlightSkelet0n]

Jack isn't ugly and sick! -_-

[jemimajellicle]

Sure! All the girls from my school think that he is sexy and hot, but I think he is just a cutie!!!! LOL!!!

[cesarjimenezanimator]

@MoonlightSkelet0n That's what he was to the real world people who saw a whole "NEW" Santa Claus.

[AnimeFreakKatie]

was the movie made after a book?? Who did the drawings?

[Bobzeaux]

I think the book (written and illustrated by Tim Burton) was published after the movie, but the original poem was around for 10 years before the movie's release.

[madnessguru]

Yey jack :)

[iloveanime7]

I feel like a little kid again. :D Patrick Stewart is an awesome choice for a narrator. I loved every minute of it. And great idea about having only pictures. If it was a cartoon, it would've taken the focus off the words.

[DumbyDumbProductions]

Love it. But where was Sally? I never knew there was a book. Jack has such a warm nature to him. :)

[Bobzeaux]

In its infancy as a poem, Sally never existed (Jack, Santa and Zero were the only real characters). They only created her for the movie.

But you can see her in the background of Part 1 at 4:13.

[alexpuddin]

aww that sucks

i like sally

[picknick21]

love it ^^

[Fussino]

Kinda makes me sad... The movie didn't o.O

But I hate the name "Halloween Land" I like "Halloween Town" more... And Christmas Town sounds alright ^^"

Love the Nightmare before Christmas, I'd love Jack's gifts at Christmas =D

[fuckinmezie]

santa looks like a fat crack head

[danishsunshine]

ugly and...SICK!? NOONE MAY TALK LIKE THAT ABOUT JACK!

[Bobzeaux]

If Tim Burton can say that about him, it's open season. *lol*

[alljudgingbutterfly]

This was delightful, extremely well-made and directed. It made me feel like a little kid being read to from a story-book :)

[Bobzeaux]

Glad you enjoyed it. :)

[firstenigmaone]

i agree completely.

[zackarii]

Vampire teddy bear! XD

I love that!

[girfan811]

wow this is so difrunt then the movie thay dont even mention sally

[Bobzeaux]

punkXroxXprincess81:

"jack is number 1# so your video that i made a comment on that said don't make or i will kick your ass to chian town so your are a mother fucker"

..Yeah, whatever. I'm not making fun of Jack Skellington, nothing you can't joke about should be taken seriously, and if you want to try to kick my ass to China Town, at least learn proper grammar and spelling first.

[Adiprower94]

(part3)And he smiled like the old pumpkin king that I knew, then turned and asked softly of me, Wouldn't you?

That means Jack and Sally got married! YAY!

[Bobzeaux]

Doing the epilogue would have been cool (further tying in Patrick Stewart to the story), but this video was based on what artwork was available. Notice how Part 3 here has a lot of photos in it? While I embellished further on it to stand out as The Real World, it first came out as a result of there not being a whole lot of art for this particular part of the story. The film companion (where I got a LOT of the images) doesn't have a lot of Christmas Eve artwork. *lol*

[Adiprower94]

Yah, and in the original poem Sally wasnt even in it, she was only a side character. He did artwork of her, but no story behind it. I have the special edition vhs where it shows u how they amde it and they showed his original artwork.

[Bobzeaux]

Yeah, there aren't enough Tim Burton doodle galleries on the DVDs for his movies, are there? A new Beetlejuice DVD is coming out this fall, and what did they add to make it "special edition"? Just a couple of episodes from the cartoon. Not even a lame reflection/looking-back featurette, director commentary or anything. Come on, we need more than THAT! >:P

[Adiprower94]

Seriously

[Adiprower94]

(part2) With 4 or 5 skeleton children at hand playing strange little tunes in their xylophone band! And I asked old jack, do u remember the night, when the sky was so dark and the moon shone so bright. When a million small children pretending to sleep, didnt hav xmas at all so to speak? And would, if u could turn that mighty clock back to that long fateful night? Now, think carefully Jack. Would u do the whole thing all over again, knowing what u know now, knowing what u knew then?(part 3 above)

[Adiprower94]

Isnt there a 4th part called closing? or was that only in the soundtrack?(its narrated by santa)

Anyway it goes:

And finally, evrything worked out just fine. Christmas was saved, though there wasnt much time. But after that night, things were never the same. Each holiday now knew the other ones name! And though that one xmas things got outof hand, Im still rather fond of that skeleton man. So many years later, I though id drop in, and there was old jack still looking quite thin. (part 2 above)

[Adiprower94]

2:15 is in haunted amnsion holiday. Its in the stretching room. I LUV JACK!

[punkXroxXprincess81]

nightmare before chirstmas is the best movie ever in this world so since you make i will kick you ass to chain town bicht

[Bobzeaux]

Huh?

[ZJed1]

jack is not ugly or sick! great vid!

[rikoui]

did you make this? i know everything about nightmare before chirstmas and i've never see this.

[Bobzeaux]

Yep. Aside from the art, narration, and the music, this is ALL MINE. :)

[rikoui]

pretty good

[Bobzeaux]

Thanks. I don't suppose you know anyone at Disney or Touchstone, do you? Someone gave me the idea of trying to get this broadcast during the holidays. *l*

[Bobzeaux]

Nope. It's a slideshow made entirely by me. :)

[elkenwelt]

Great work.

Could you may tell me which program you used, I want to do something like that, too, but I'm not really into computers and stuff, so it would be a help if you would answer. Again, great work!

[Bobzeaux]

If you're not really into computers, I suggest you use onetruemedia dot calm. It seems to be the youtuber's choice of slideshow software, and it looks easy enough to use. The program I used is Final Cut Pro, which is not only the leading program in the world of professional film editing, but also costs a pretty penny. Onetruemedia won't give you the special effects like this vid (and I don't know if you can sync pics to the music like I did), but it should suit you fine. Good luck. :)

[elkenwelt]

Thanks

[28880]

that was...a-amazing!

[Bobzeaux]

HA! I've inflicted e-stuttering! Sweet. *lol* XD

[megzillarocs]

This is fantastic ! but where oh where can i get the audio from i searched everywhere on the net would realy help get me through the day at work hehehe

[Bobzeaux]

The book comes with a read-along CD. It's JUST the narration though. No music or anything like I've added here. :P

[megzillarocs]

thank u ;) i almost got the book at the weekend but had no cash! for some reason all the nightmare stuff was on sale y wld no one want Jack!!!

[Bobzeaux]

Got me. Last time I checked, everything Nightmare-related cost a considerable bundle. O_O

[megzillarocs]

think the shop was closeing down quite abit of stuff was on sale dunno was in another town for the day. i used to work in a shop that sold loads of nightmare stuff and i got realy gd discount so i have loads of stuff already :)

[ludwigvan17]

Great vid, man. Hope your boy comes back soon.

[Menevea]

It's really great^^

Can you tell me were I can get the complete tune from the end of it? I love it so but I just can't find it in the full length :(

[Bobzeaux]

It's the track "Jack & Sally" on the movie soundtrack, which you can find just about anywhere (last I checked).

[SweeneyXskellington]

Just like the movie itself, this has brought tears to my eyes. I love it so much. Tim Burton is so briliant.

"back home Jack was sad,

but then like a dream, santa brought

christmas to the land of halloween!"

I get so happy and choked up when I try to recite that. :)

The Nightmare Before Christmas is outstanding on many levels and I don't know what the world would be without it.

[Bobzeaux]

"I don't know what the world would be without it."

Well, there might be a few less emo kids, but... *lol* J/K

I'm glad you like it. :) Nice to know that I can make a simple slideshow as potent as a $50,000,000 film.

[teamitalyfan1]

yep, not as potent, but close. very very close. ^_^

[NewMoonGoddess]

that was so cool lol!

[frodoforever56]

did they just call Jack ugly?!?!?

pardon me while i go grab my shot gun>:(

but it was really cute all together:)

[Bobzeaux]

A guy with no flesh dressed in a crudely-made Santa Claus costume? Sounds pretty ugly to me. :P *lol*

[frodoforever56]

that sound soooooooo hot!!!

heehee

lolx10

[KingTutKelly]

THANK YOU!!!

Jack is extremely cute!!!

[frodoforever56]

I know right!!!!!

In that one sceane at the end where he kisses Sally; i almost died!!!!!!!

[SweeneyXskellington]

hee hee hee isn't he? :)

[vidakitty2000]

How is Jack sexy, exactly? Cute, perhaps, in a puppy sort of way . . . but sexy? O.o  HOW?! Maybe people are confusing adoration for lust.

[HypotheticalMuffins]

That was extraordinary!

Beautiful!

[Mariosister1]

That was awesome. I seriously thought that was professional.

How cute. I'm going to favorite one part of it, so I can watch it fifty more times. :P

Thanks for putting this up.

[Bobzeaux]

Thanks. :) Someone else suggested that I should try to get this broadcasted. I don't suppose you know anyone who works for Disney or ABC, do you? *l*

[Mariosister1]

Unfortunately, I don't, sorry. I'm sure there's some way you can get a broadcasting network to see it.

[modestjuly]

They said Jack Was Ugly How dare They

[willowench]

Gumby and Pokey... FROM THE GRAVE!!!

That was so awesome. I liked the spinning doll face. ^_^ Too bad you couldn't find some art for the epilogue.

[AzumangaDaioh1fan]

Did you make the video yourself?

[Bobzeaux]

Absolutely. Took me about an entire week non-stop to get all of the right graphics and do the animation. You like? :)

[AzumangaDaioh1fan]

Yeah! It looked like a professional made it! That's why I asked.

[Bobzeaux]

Someone commented that I could probably get this broadcasted on TV. I don't suppose you know anyone who works for Disney or ABC, do you? *lol*

[AzumangaDaioh1fan]

No, I don't. Sorry! lol

[DemonicRemption]

You mean you made this, yourself?

[Bobzeaux]

Except for the narration, the art, and the music, absolutely. All this editing and animation; ALL ME, baby! :D What do you think?

[DemonicRemption]

I'm speechless.....

[skellington15]

Alot of this did not come that book I found in Disneyland Resort. So where did the rest come from.

[Bobzeaux]

The rest of the art came from the film companion.

[skellington15]

Where can you find that?

[DemonicRemption]

This is at the Disneyland Resort?!

[HPremembrance]

My heart jumps and i start crying every time it says "She got a doll.... POSSESSED BY A DEMON!" Its was so scary!! :'(

[Bobzeaux]

HA! Mission accomplished! :D

[mariais15]

GOOD JOB

[ShiroiHisui]

Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah xDDDDD Thx for the upload!!! thankyou thankyou thankyou xDDDD

[juniorbove]

i have this movie

[corpsebride1994]

this is awesome!

[skellington15]

'Twas the nightmare before Christmas, and all though the house,

Not a creature was peaceful, not even a mouse.

The stockings all hung by the chimney with care,

When opened that morning would cause quite a scare!

The children, all nestled so snug in their beds,

Would have nightmares of monsters and skeleton heads.

Ho Ho Ho Hee-Hee-Hee-Hee-Hee!!

[Arrowbid]

coolio

[spiderettes]

LOVED IT

[bl00d321]

i heart this sooooo much!!!! how did you get "fired from wanting to do your job too well"?

[dancechick86]

The first few lines on this part of the poem are used in the haunted mansion holiday at disneyland when you are decending in the elevator.

[Bobzeaux]

I know, don't you just love it? As if being based on the movie wasn't enough, they go ahead and open with lines directly from the poem itself. :)

[skellington15]

True, and some of the pictures came from the Disneyland ride.

[primarci]

THANK YOU! The finale is on the special edition!

[Bobzeaux]

The finale is on the special edition? What do you mean?

[giavale]

THIS IS AMAZING! I LOVE WATCHING IT! =)

[skellington15]

Some of these pictures came from the ride.

[joeevil]

great

[dingbat100]

i love the nightmare before chritmas!

it´s so cute

[DaphneLz]

it is awsome!If only jack was with sally... why there is no sally in this version???great job once more!

[Bobzeaux]

Only Jack, Santa, and Zero were characters in the original poem. Sally wasn't created until Burton suddenly had a reason for fleshing out his story into a full movie (and not until after he met super-hottie Lisa Marie ;)). She's kind of in this at 4:13 in Part I. :)

[DaphneLz]

thanx!!!

[piepartyzena]

by about the 2nd 1/2 of the 2nd part, it gets kinda cheesy

[Bobzeaux]

Can you show me better?

[Sallyskellington13]

I love what you did, it must of took ages.

And they really sale them dolls...well thats mental!

[Bobzeaux]

This actually took me about a week to make. How lucky for me that I had so much time on my hands since I got fired for wanting to do my job too well.... a week right before Christmas... My boss was a bitch...

[darkbeauty44]

is that what happend in the book?

[Bobzeaux]

Yup. Jack, Santa, and Zero were the only real characters (so there was no subplot of Oogie Boogie tormenting Santa or Sally coming to Santa's rescue), and Santa isn't anywhere near as pissed off at Jack for taking over Christmas. *lol*

[Guernicaman]

Excellent job.

[DNAlchemist]

Ohmigosh!! I have to get those Halloween toys. They would look great in meh bedroom with the old porcelain dolls. -^^-

[MorbidMarionette]

I so want though's toy's!!!

<3

[Internatube]

The baby doll demon is scary

[Bobzeaux]

And real! I just can't believe that some manufacturer actually makes those things. :P lol

[Chizpurfle52595]

Aww, why'd you have to use pictures of actual people?! But good job using the pictures from the Disneyland ride. As long as you used all the pictures from the book I guess it's okay.

Santa is much more forgiving to Jack in the book than in the movie. I wish he was a little more forgiving in the movie. Nice job using the movie music too, btw.

[Bobzeaux]

Real pictures... yes, this was the most difficult section to put together. THere were spots in the book where Burton illustrated each individual verse, but THIS little sequence is almost one full page with only one drawing. Had to improvise there. :P Plus I thought since Jack is now entering the Real World, why not use real world pics? lol
