The Nightmare Before Easter
The Nightmare Before Christmas was a great movie. I’ve always loved claymation, I watched Wallace and Grommit back on PBS back before they were really all that popular in the states. I even dabbled in some claymation movies as a kid. I wasn’t allowed to watch The Nightmare Before Christmas as a kid because my religously motivated parents were afraid it would melt my brain or some nonsense (I still love them though, and they’ve relaxed since then), but I watched it later in life and now I have to say I’m better for it.
I’d have to say that 95% of Tim Burton’s movies are pure gold (although I thought Corpse Bride missed the mark). I have yet to see Sweeny Todd but ive heard good things…

I liked Sweeny Todd a lot. Good story, pretty decent acting, and the singing was nice. The only parts that I didn’t like about it was the fact that it was sometimes hard to hear some of the songs, and Helena Bonham Carter’s breasts looked like they could have been their own supporting actor. Kinda distracting.
