Tim Burton didn’t direct The Nightmare Before Christmas. So how did director Henry Selick make The Nightmare Before Christmas look and feel like a Tim Burton movie? Let’s find out.

Ok
Best and worst Tim Burton movie, in your view?
Use capital letters you bucky beaver.
First
Shame about the copyright stuff on the music. It’s THESE types of videos—seeing and hearing some of the best parts while someone waxes on about them poetically and lovingly—that make people want to go out and buy a copy to experience it again… or even for the first time.
I never quite know how to feel about Tim Burton's movies, the few I've seen. Other than the fact they sometimes feel quite surreal, but that might be the point? I don't know. I enjoyed this nonetheless!
I'm a little late to the party, but congratulations on surpassing 100K subscribers! 😀
Glad I got to watch this video, unfortunately I don’t think YouTube has been notifying me when your recent vids were uploaded so I’ll have to check back!
Henry selick directed the nightmare on elm street?
I just finished Wednesday so a video about Tim Burton lore was exactly what I was looking for. Never noticed the parables between Burton's work and German expressionism, although now that you say it it's kind of obvious. Thanks for another great vid!
What a great analysis! I guess now I need to go watch a bunch of old German movies…?
i see you changed the title
Hello cinema Stix (im 16 years old), you're one of my favorite cinema channels. I want to make cinema channel aswell. How do u edit(editing software u use), write summaries, and find details the public can't see. Great video by the way
I can't get over that meme I saw a long time ago where the Grinch is actually jack and such. It really changes the thought about this movie and the Grinch
I never realized danny elfman worked on this, thats awesome
Why do you change names of videos?
Did you know that the original working title for The Nightmare Before Christmas was Blue Harvest? Oh, and Tim Burton is a hack.
Exactly
Could you make a video about the Titanic? It’s such an iconic film
At 1:00 when talking about the graveyard scene can someone tell me the song that’s playing in the background
Just had an idea: Wouldn‘t it be great to do a lovecraftian horror movie in an expresionistic/tim burtonesque style? I feel like those two would fit so well together.
this video deserves way more views bruv
Would love to see Tim Burton direct a remake of 'Metropolis' – yet, I wonder if the Tim Burton of today could even pull it off. While no doubt the Tim Burton from the 80's & 90's could've done a more than admiral job, I'm not sure if the Burton of today could. 😒 Seems these days he has more misses than hits when it comes to feature films.
Great visuals in this one
Your videos are well crafted and thoughtful, thank you.
It's a bummer that Tim Burton sucks up all of the credit for himself. I realize he wrote the story and was the inspiration for a lot of the visuals, but Henry Selick has come out recently to say that he feels he was cheated out of well-deserved credit. I guess he said the title was rebranded to "Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas" only weeks before release, which seems like an odd power move. Anyway, I love Tim Burton and his work, but also feel it's important to acknowledge people like Selick who actually do the work. I don't think it's fair to relegate him to being simply a student of Burton, but rather a force of his own with a distinct style.
