Surprised no one's commented on this Burton face off yet. It's been years since I saw The Nightmare Before Christmas, but I recall adoring it when I saw it. Saw it in an art class in high school; in that same class, we watched Citizen Kane, The Curse of the Black Pearl, and Finding Nemo. And, when it doesn't disappoint alongside those movies, its quality is clear. Loved Corpse Bride, too, but it did fall just short of the perfection of The Nightmare Before Christmas.

Nightmare Before Christmas all the way.

Nightmare Before Christmas should never lose this. Sure Corpse Bride was great but Nightmare was a revolution

Corpse Bride missed the mark, I think. It was a mediocre Disney movie done a little more grim than usual. How's that so special? It's all about Nightmare Before Christmas - possibly because it was really directed by Henry Selick. If it weren't for the promise of some Johnny Depp, Corpse Bride would have been thrashed by the critics and auds.

Why has no one mentioned the fact that Oogie-Boogie is only in nightmare so that Jack isn't seen as the badguy of the story?

I enjoyed Corpse Bride; I'm a sucker for well made stop motion films. But Nightmare Before Christmas is not only the best stop motion film ever, it's probably the best Disney film ever. Truly memorable songs (thanks to Danny Elfman), characters I actually cared about, and a devious sense of humor all add up to a wonderful experience that far surpasses even the classic Walt Disney-era stuff. NIGHTMARE FTW.

Love both films but Nightmare is a classic.

Neither are good. Not quite the height of tedium, but still pretty testing.

Never been too fond of Nightmare before Christmas. I adore Corpse Bride, however. It needs some love in this discussion.
