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

[Scootin'By]

I LOVE Nightmare Before Christmas, it's a classic!

Exactly! I think the best time to watch it is in between Halloween and Thanksgiving, it's like a gateway movie between the two holidays

While I do like the movie just fine, I actually really like the soundtrack. I'll find myself listening to the wonderful Danny Elfman songs way more often than watching the movie, which I actually rarely do.

The soundtrack is SO good. It's Danny Elfman, so you know it's going to be great and it doesn't disappointed. Definitely classic!

Our DD LOVES it. Says it's because of the neat stop-motion animation. I had to inform her that Ray Harryhausen was the expert in that technique in the 50s.

Remember the restaurant in Monsters, Inc. was named Harryhausen's in tribute.

Not a fan but I watch it once a year. I do admire the craftsmanship of the film making

I started it once and…..nope. No desire to try again.

While in DLR a few weeks ago, we were in line for Snow White with a family who had a 10 or 12 yr old boy. He had just gotten a Mayor's Car Popcorn Bucket and he was just fascinated with it.

I really like the movie. Saw it in the theater when it first came out. We watch it almost every year. Very creative. But DH & I usually like all of Tim Burton's creations...they all have similar elements - something poignant, something odd, something that pulls a little at your heart strings, something that makes you laugh, something that makes you go, "WTH?!"

I love it, but not to the point that a whole room in my house is themed.

The piano in The Corpse Bride is labeled "Harryhausen" as well.

Harryhausen himself had cameos in Disney's Mighty Joe Young, and in Not-Disney's Spies Like Us!

I only seen parts of it. kind of got bord each time. DW loves it for some reason.

I feel like I want to like it. I turn it on every year with the kids and end up browsing my phone about 10 minutes in. I do like some scenes and some songs but don’t really know the whole movie and get bored with it pretty easy.

I don't know how I can live with myself, seeing as I am such a big DISNEY fan. I have never seen this movie.
My interest is peaked though.
