Has anyone else seen this and if so what did you think of it? When I first saw it, I was frightened so much that it gave me nightmares. Quite pathetic really but I think it had to do with the vampires and not Oogie Boogie. I'm still trying to understand why though. But after the inital nightmares, I have re-watched this film and whilst it is not a favourite I do see that in a way it was a improvement on the direction of animation. Especially an animation direction that was used to create another Tim Burton's films: Corpse Bride. I actually like Corpse Bride. |

It was an interesting story.. I first saw in in theathers and it reminded me of the puppets used in the rankin Bass films and specials in the 60s and 70s.. Corpse bride is very similar, almost a sequel.. |

Are they puppets? I don't think they are, I thought that they were made out of clay like the Wallace and Gromit characters. |

All I've been able to find are:
Yet, when I researched Corpse Bride because since they were made by the same people I presumed that they used the same to create Corpse Bride, so:
So Nick, you were correct and I was wrong. |

Did you see the theatrical release Kor or did you (like me) see it when the VHS was released? |

I didn't see it at the theater. I think I first saw it when I checked it out from the library or maybe rented it from a video rental place. |

I'd have to either say Jack Skellington (I think is name is), or the patchwork girl who liked or loved him. Though many of the other chars could be funny at times also. |

Jack was my favorite as well.. I'm surprised they didn't make a sequel to it, was a pretty big hit at the box office |

Maybe the director or producer doesn't like doing sequels. I think it had a GBA game also. |

Burton made a sequel to Batman, so he was not afraid of doing sequels.. |

I wonder why he didnt to this one. And Jack did seem to be a multi dimensional character. Now that I remember some bits that I can recall. |

I think Burton had other projects going on at the time that prevented him from making a sequel.. |

& to late now I guess. I wonder what he would have done, and if it would have been good, bad, or just ok. |
