Last year was the 15th anniversary to one of the coolest and most unique animated movies around! still is awesome after all these years on Blu-Ray and in theatrical 3D. I remembered seeing this when was 12 back in 1993 and was blown away by the amazing animation, memorable songs, and storyline done by story-writer and producer Tim Burton. Sure over the last 12 years this has been merchandised by Goths at Hot-Topic and kind of ruined that but don't let that fool you, it's one of the finest and most original animated movies ever and one of Disney's best.

I even rode on the Nightmare Before Xmas edition Haunted Mansion ride at Disneyland last month during the Halloween season.

COMBAT HERO GREEN GOBLIN!

Who else hated that those buttwipes at Hot-Topic turned this into some goth or emo fad over those 12 years?

I'm sure the goths and emos had no part in asking for this stuff

KUNGFU GRIP GREEN GOBLIN!

Who else rode on the Nightmare before Xmas edition of The Haunted Mansion this year at Disneyland?

If they could think for themselves that much, they wouldn't be shopping at Hot Topic.

and we don't buy red and blue trucks a lot lol

I heartly agree, now that's a great avatar you got. I use to play that Rescue Rangers game all the time when i was 10 back in 1991.

Well that's why we are TF fans, DUH! we've all been buying them since 1984.

I'm pretty sure Greengoblin's a spam bot. He never responds to people's criticism about him and when he does repsond it's about their avatar and he's always accurately saying his age in what year he was playing/watching whatever he's aspiesizing about at that current moment. His posts read like a computer program.

So, for the good of the Allspark I must ask you Greengoblin...

Are you Skynet?

I'm no friggin' spambot.

Considering it's a property that consists of, what, the one movie, some spinoff movie, and 2 cameos in the Kingdom Hearts franchise, it has really kept itself in the limelight pretty well over the years. It's hard to believe it's still as popular as it is fifteen years later.

It's a good movie, but with the attention span of the public when it comes to entertainment being equivalent to that of an epileptic goldfish...

always thought it was overrated, oh well

But how would you pronounce WTCHGG?

Also, this thread's title confuses me. Why is it punctuated? And why the year? Is there another Nightmare Before Xmas movie that I don't know about?

On topic, Nightmare is a movie that I've always tried reeeeeally hard to like, but every time I watch it I fall asleep. It's like NyQuill on DVD.

Mostly agree! spin-off movie? you mean "Corpse Bride"?

Spin-off movie?

It had a spin-off video game, "Oogi Boogie's Revenge" or something like that, in addition to the Kingdom Hearts crossovers, but I don't think there was a spin-off movie.


As for "Nightmare Before Christmas", I watch it every October out of tradition and will always like it. Didn't like "Corpse Bride" nearly as much (thought it was pretty average). I think it suffered from the lack of Henry Selick's direction, personally. Burton isn't too good at directing stop-motion where-as that's Selick's specialty ("Coraline" was fantastic).

yeah i'm out after 'this is Halloween" repeats for the 30th time

That's exactly the sort of response I'd expect from a spambot.

and phonetically mickey its

WhTeQuGg ... vowels all having soft sound

I never did see it, though I took part in a marching band show with the movie as the theme in high school.

Really? when was this? was it a Thanksgivin or Christmas eve parade?

My daughter keeps bugging me to get the DVD cause she loves the movie but I've been waiting for it to drop in price......

.....I'm still waiting.

Don't worry, at Wal-Mart it's only 14 bucks.

Is it finally? I just looked a couple weeks ago and it was still $24.99 or so.

Aw, awesome, I totally get another cookie for guessing it was a Greengoblin thread! *nom nom*

It was our halftime/competition show for the whole fall season. 2002-03, I -think-.

Folks -

There's nothing wrong with the topic of this thread.

Please don't turn this thread into a personal discussion about the individual poster or any other poster. This is a bout a movie.

A movie I hope to finally buy this holiday season

Stormrave is a modbot, I think.

I find it interesting that while most of these threads are completly random, they do have some of the most interesting of conversations going on.

You're right, it's the video game. For some reason I though that was a movie. Probably because Disney has a habit of unnecessary sequels, and I thought that was one of them.

I agree. Not the worst form of spam I think.


A friend of mine was a huge fan of the movie, and bought all the merchandise long before it was popular. He had to stop wearing the stuff when he went to rock shows, because everybody was wearing that stuff and would want to talk to him, which he didn't like.

I think it is a really cool movie. It is strange how it has become so popular. There is even a "Jack & Sally" wedding theme. Weird.

I posted this in the Random Image thread not too long ago, but its relevant to this thread, so I repost the horror.

Terrifying. D:

Oh my.

Nice costumes, but they're not into the characters at all. They look bored.

I used to have a copy of the movie, as well as Corps Bride, but I think my sis took them when she moved away, or they're packed up and put away some place. :/ I need to watch them again.

I watch this movie every Xmas eve. Somehow, it feels more appropriate at Xmas than Halloween.



I just ordered the 2-disc Blu-ray from Amazon.com for $15.

All her responses ARE off a list of ten options, after all.

Edit: Twelve. Twelve responses. D'oh.

That's just in Ask the Staff. I'm a little more creative here.
