DVD Reviews of Nightmare Before Christmas (Special Edition)
DVD Review: Horrible release
Summary: 1 Stars
Disney should be ashamed of releasing this film in such a manner. The master they used is outdated and not even anamorphic. The master, and all bonus materials were originally produced for a $100 Laserdisc release done over 8 years ago! The same is true for other Disney films like SISTER ACT, ARACHNOPHOBIA, THE BLACK CAULDRON, THE JOY LUCK CLUB
Other studios remaster often, expecially when doing a release in a new format. With these kind of choices being made by Disney I wonder what they are going to pull with Blu?
DVD Review: Absolutely Fantastic.!!
Summary: 5 Stars
One of the very best anime movies of all times, I love the music, the way how they show the holiday doors on the trees and Jack impersonates Santa Claus without realizing that Christmas and Halloween are total oposites.
Description of Nightmare Before Christmas (Special Edition)
For those who never thought Disney would release a film in which Santa Claus is kidnapped and tortured, well, here it is! The full title is Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas, which should give you an idea of the tone of this stop-action animated musical/fantasy/horror/comedy. It is based on characters created by Burton, the former Disney animator best known as the director of Pee-wee's Big Adventure, Beetlejuice, Edward Scissorhands, and the first two Batman movies. His benignly scary-funny sensibility dominates the story of Halloweentown resident Jack Skellington (voice by Danny Elfman, who also wrote the songs), who stumbles on a bizarre and fascinating alternative universe called ... Christmastown! Directed by Henry Selick (who later made the delightful James and the Giant Peach), this PG-rated picture has a reassuringly light touch. As Roger Ebert noted in his review, "some of the Halloween creatures might be a tad scary for smaller children, but this is the kind of movie older kids will eat up; it has the kind of offbeat, subversive energy that tells them wonderful things are likely to happen." --Jim EmersonGeneral DVDs
