The Nightmare Before Christmas (2-Disc Collector's Edition + Digital Copy)
Description:
Now digitally restored and remastered with state-of-the-art technology, THE NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS is deeper, darker and more brilliant than ever just as Tim Burton originally envisioned it. Can Christmas be saved? Bored with the same old scare-and-scream routine, Jack Skellington, the Pumpkin King of Halloween Town, longs to spread the joy of Christmas. But his merry mission puts Santa in jeopardy and creates a nightmare for good little boys and girls everywhere! Bonus Features THE NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS is the first full-length stop-motion animated film ever created. The movie contains more than 227 animated characters. Santa Claus' head has more than 50 different working parts, and Jack has more than 400 separate interchangeable heads, each handcrafted with a different facial expression. The smallest working puppet in the movie is a doll from the "real world" Jack visits that is only one inch long. Sally is wearing a real miniature dress laid on top of foam latex so that the fabric doesn't move too much on screen. At the height of production, the animators produced only 70 seconds of finished film per week. To create Halloweentown's twisted look, the design artists often made their sketches using their nondrawing hand. What's This?

Oustanding Movie, Outstanding DVD!!!Feb 26, 2010 The Nightmare Before Christmas is one of my favorite movies and definetely my favorite stop-motion. Although recent efforts are quiet outstanding (Corpse Bride, Coraline) none of this has suprassed this masterpiece. The characters, the settings, the music, everything is beautiful and makes this film a pleasant experience. This Collector's edition DVD is a gem. The restoration is fantastic and the film looks gorgeous (for the ones that have BD I recommmed that one). The picture is clean and perfect and the sound is crisp and clear. The bonus features are also really good. The making of documentary, the new audio comentary, deleted scenes, the shorts Vincent and Frankenweenie (both fantastic), the ride at disneyland, the art galleries and the trailers enhances the experience. I totally recommend this film because is a masterpiece and this edition makes TNBC a must own title.

Nightmare Before Christmas-Blu-Ray!Feb 03, 2010 Even though this is a subtle release of this movie on Blu-Ray the imagery and vivid look of this movie makes it all new once you watch this in HD. If you love Tim Burton, and appreciate the dark comdey and witt, definatley get this movie on Blu-Ray. It also includes the Haunted Mansion ride which we were able to experinece all over again through this disc!! Great stuff.
