Watching this movie is both one of my Halloween and Christmas traditions.

This movie was on the Disney Channel this morning. I'm glad I got to see it again. It's one of my favorites .

I used to like it as a kid, but I hate it now.

I got a tattoo of Jack Skellington on my forearm a few days ago.

I've liked this movie ever since I was a small child. My dad enjoys it too. There isn't a single song on the soundtrack that I dislike. I think Jack and Sally are adorable, both as individuals and as a couple.

I know 3-D has become an epithet these days, and I usually hate it myself, but this is one of the few movies I really enjoy in that medium. I saw it in the theater in a special Christmas release a few years ago with the nice 3-D... the kind with the grayish glasses. It's not a high-color film as a rule, anyway, and the effect was really cool.

Of course, it's a good film no matter how you see it... and of course, the Christmas scene does lose color with the 3-D, but still. I really think 3-D should only be used for deliberately silly films and dark films.

Bun-ny!! !

I hate the way this movie messes with my mind. Is it a Halloween movie OR a Christmas movie? Drives me nuts.

You should see how many heads they had to make so Jack Skeleton could talk and show facial expressions there were like hundreds of them.

It paid off big. That's my favorite thing in there. I might play it while doing other things but I have to look up when Jack grins and when he takes a bite of snow...

I thought it was a class movie. Very disturbing in a stylish way.

I used to watch this film over and over again when I was young until the VHS finally became too worn to work. I bought the DVD a month or so ago and have watched it at least a dozen times since then! One of my favourite childhood movies.
