Who saw Corpse Bride tonight? Wasn't it AMAZING? Tim Burton is a genius. I won't say anything about it here for fear of spoilers, but I will say that the claymation was amazing and Danny Elfman's score was excellent. I swear he (Elfy) sounds like Tom Waits...at least in this one (listen hard to the singing skeleton).
no not nearly as good as I had hoped it has shitloads of funny puns, but the story doesn't go into anything enough, way too short, I wouldn't mind the length but it's not just short it's short because it's rushed Danny Elfman seems like he was trying too hard and not just makin the music, I was suprised, I mean it was good and all, but could have been better I say wait for it to come to TV
i wanna go see it soooooooo bad! i haven't gone yet, plus i have to watch cops tonite, so i probably won't check it out till next weekend.
needed more story line. but tim burton is amazing as always. great animation/special effects. whats up with all of his movies having swirls? i think thats so cool. nightmare before christmas edward sissorhands beatlejuice all swirls in it. i havent seen charlie and the chocolate factory yet . ill probably find swirls in that too.
Saw it, now I must own it! Life goalswn all Depp and Burton movies! any one heard of a Burton movie called Ed Wood or something, it was like the 5th movie he worked w/ Johnny on. Just want 2 know what's up w/ it.
Oh yes! Ed Wood! I own that movie! It is very very very good. Johnny Depp plays the lead role, Ed Wood, who was voted the worst director of all time. His most famous work was Plan 9 From Outer Space, and he wore women's clothing. It's a very good movie. I saw the Corpse Bride on Wednesday with my boyfriend and I was a tad bit disappointed. It was a beautiful movie, but it seemed like it was entirely too short, like something was missing. Though I really did enjoy the story line and maybe the fact it seemed to end so quickly meant it was so good I didn't even realize that much time went by. I really did like it, though, and do plan on buying it when it comes to video. I'm a huge fan of both Johnny Depp and Tim Burton and I especially love their collaborations.
hooray, a movie to make me respect tim burton again, between planet of the apes and charlie and the chocolate factory I thought he was lost to me
it wasn't what i'd expected.. but it was pretty good! i thought it was cute and sweet.. but i suppose i held higher expectations for the music..
Honestly, I was disappointed with the movie. I couldn't even compare with The Nightmare Before Christmas. But I suppose comparing the two isn't really fair. On it's own without comparison, I would say it was decent.
well, its not easy to do claymation........... it is probably short for a reason....... just think of how many painstaking hours they had to do, just to get a few scenes done
it could have been worse. I thought the remake was pretty good and charlton hesston as an ape?? I didnt see that comin...... the story line was different, and the ending was quite different....... it just raised even more questions...
I didn't enjoy this movie as much as I felt I should have. In reply to the main post, I really do enjoy Danny Elfmans singing. I think my favorite part about this whole movie (besides the plot, which was cute) was the butler. He walks as though he is a bee or something. Overall, the movie wasn't bad, but nothing to celebrate.
