Tim Burton draws attention to any of his work - people tend to love him or hate him... but with the Nightmare Before Christmas, Tim Burton has created a visually stunning masterpiece. The Nightmare before Christmas is a stop-motion animated movie following Pumpkin King Jack Skellington (Love the name!!) who chases what he thinks will be the finer life in Santa Claus's land. But Jack Skellington struggles to leave his world - Halloween!
The beauty of The Nightmare Before Christmas is that its beautifuly created and assembled. In fact, it was nominated for an Academy Award. This is the predecessor to Tim Burton's 2005 release the Corpse Bride. The Nightmare Before Christmas is a must have DVD as, with each watch, you will find new and special scenes and moments.
I was surprised I liked this film as much as I do. I never tire of watching, Jack is my favorite character of the film. Good music. Because of this film I do want to see Corpse Bride.
My girlfriend wanted Tim Burtons Nightmare Before Chrstmas. It's a very hard DVD to find. If you were to go to your local Movie store or various websites to look for it they would tell you it's not going to be released until Christmas 2009, or they would want $40 because of it's limited availibility. I went on Ebay and found the movie for a very reasonable price. It was brand new and was a collectors edition. I purchased the movie and it was shipped super quick. My girlfriend is happy and so I am happy!
I`m very unhappy with the few purchases that I made on ebay. it was either used (when it said that it was new condition) or in this case. the seller was stripped of there abillities to sell on ebay because of lack of merch. ebay should pay closer attention to the sellers merch. and abillities to be adequate.
i decided to buy this movie cause my daughter (in college) loves this movie alot....so when i thought i would surprise her and send it to her.....you sent it fast to me so i could send it to her and yes she was very surprised and glad to get it!!!!!!! thank you
Whether you're a fan of animated film or not, The Nightmare Before Christmas is a wonderful, magical movie. The animation is superb and displays Tim Burton's unique directing style, and the story is completely engaging. Danny Elfman delivers a captivating performance as Jack Skellington, with vocal skills to rival any polished broadway actor. This is definitely a movie for any age.
The quality of the dvd is good. This a a great movie. I'm not sure that is a genuine copy though. The movie itself is a very entertaining musical. A little on the creepy side. The animation is great. My one year old and seven year old sons both love it. As well as my husband and myself.
Two thumbs up! I loved this movie when it came out years ago and now my kids love it. It's a little dark, but my kids love the songs and sing them all the time - together! There is a morel to this movie- sometimes good intentions are not always what's best.
The DVD itself does not appear to be be genuine Disney, but it works very well. I have a toddler who cannot do without this movie! The DVD itself works great and the picture is awesome. The sound quality is also very good. I would buy another movie from the seller if it has this same quality - for sure!
I bought this dvd for my daughter, who loves the movie. I chose to look on E-bay because the dvd is out of circulation in retail stores. I chose this particular trader because he/she had an excellent rating and the price was more than reasonable.
I purchased the item since more were available than bidding. The description was unclear that the DVD was already opened and used. There were a few scratches but it works fine.
I hated that it took forever to recieve my stuff, when I paid for express delivery!! I ordered it for a Valentines present and I didn't recieve it til' late March. And it was suppose to be 2 day delivery.
Even though it is an import it was still of perfect quality and the shipping was supper fast I would do buisness with them again anytime I need anything feel confident to bid and purchase threw this ebay seller they wont let you down.
My son decided he wanted this for his birthday & since it wasn't at Christmas time, many stores didn't have it in stock, so we started looking on eBay! Found it & now my son is happy with his new DVD!

We love this movie at our house. We loved it on VHS and felt it was time to upgrade to DVD. The NightMare Before Christmas is a masterpiece. Love the characters, dialogue and animation. It's just an all around great movie.
I bought this for my daughter for Christmas. She absolutely LOVES this movie. I personally love the music, not so much the movie itself. I think the characters are sort of creepy.
It is a cute little love story about Jack and Sally and how they finally are able to overcome the elements that keep them apart.
The musical score is brilliant. The vocals for Jack are simply astounding. I believe it is Danny Elfman doing the singing, but I'm not sure. (My daughter is away at college and I don't have the information in front of me.)
I would recommend this movie. We did have the opportunity to see it at the movies last October during it's re-release with 3-D glasses. Really cool.
We so loved the movie and talked about it often. My daughter bought this DVD for a present for a friend. She wanted to share the love story. It was wonderful to find it on Ebay, it's out of print and can't be bought in any store.
The movie is excellent (maybe Tim Burton's best). The DVD quality is 50/50. There is the possibility it's my machine, however I have never experienced the problem before.
My decision to purchase was a birthday gift (a must have) for my daughter.
