slo’s MONDAY 10/16 poll - The Nightmare Before Christmas Movie 💀

[AppleDumpling]

I’m another who hasn’t seen it and has no interest. Doesn’t appeal to me at all. LOL, didn’t know that it’s a musical.

 

[luvnwdwgal]

I don’t think I’ve ever seen it all the way through. What I did watch was just ok. Really don’t care if I watch it again or not. My granddaughters like it though.

 

[Mysterian]

I'm a fan. I saw it when it first came out in theaters. The animation, music, design, all of it appeals to me.

I almost expected this poll to be "Is NBX a Christmas movie or a Halloween movie?". I didn't realize we had so many Anti-Nightmare folks here, you buncha Oogie Boogies.

 

[TippyThomas]

I've never seen it.

I like the movie. I do think the art style is more popular than the actual movie, which is why you see Jack Skellington merch everywhere.

This made me laugh - LOL!

 

[MamaMermaid]

Don't like it at all. It's scary and gross (just a personal opinion!!).

 

[BlueStarryHat]

I have never seen it. It just doesn't appeal to me. Forgive me Ray Harryhausen for I have sinned, but I don't like stop motion animation.

It's my DDIL's favorite movie. I even had their wedding photo turned into a NBC picture -- she loved it. I was able to find a Sally onesie for DG.

DH loves the movie. I voted that I don't like it, but if he wants to see it, I'll watch if I have to. I don't get the allure of it.

I LOVE Nightmare Before Christmas, it's a classic! It's both a great Halloween AND Christmas movie. The music, the story, the characters, the srop motion animation is all so good. My entire family loves it.

Love the movie and love the soundtrack!

The Nightmare Before Christmas overlay at the Disneyland, CA Haunted Mansion this year was really good. I was impressed.

I did my morning @slo poll voting and was out on a few errands awhile ago. Saw this at somebody's house near a stop light I was at. No idea which character it is, but do know it is from TNBC. Tall guy.

That there is Jack Skellington.

 

[LuvOrlando]

I have a photo DH took of me in front of a movie model back when there were artists at MGM Studios so it has a soft spot in my heart but do I love it, no, not really. Have I watched it more than once when it came out and once with my kids, no. I like cute Halloween, this was a bit dark for Disney animation, story felt like it couldn't decide what it wanted to be.

 

[Skywalker3]

Watched it once, many years ago. Never felt the desire to watch again, but it was fine/good.

 

[fla4fun]

I am not a fan of Tim Burton movies in general, and that includes TNBC.

 

[tvguy]

Never seen it. My wife loves movies but has no interest in seeing it for some reason. We found the references to it at Disneyland odd, but just us I guess.

 

[tasha99]

I like it, but am a little sick of the Tim Burton asthetic. I love the soundrack by Danny Elfman (from Oingo
Boingo) though!

 

[design_mom]

I have seen it a few times. It's somewhere between "it's OK" and "I'll watch if I have to." It's not one that I really feel the need to see again, but I didn't hate it.

I thought the character design of the little dog, Zero, was cute... but as a whole, stop-motion movies kind of creep me out. My husband loves all the old Ray Harryhausen stuff and I find it all creepy (creepier than it's intended to be, I think.
