The Enchanted joke was really clever.
Actually, the thing that Danny Elfman had common with Jack Skellington is that they both were tired of doing the thing they do all the time and long to do something else. For Jack is wanting to become Santa, yes, but for Danny he used to be in a New Wave Band called Oingo Boingo and he was a great singer and played a number of instruments including guitar and percussion but was longing for doing something else and became a film composer instead hence he wrote the music for most of Tim Burtons movies and did the themes for many TV-series including Batman the Animated Series and The Simpsons.
Danny Elfman is the John Williams to Burton's Spielberg.
Oh lord, a "Nightmare before Christmas" sequel would quite literally be a nightmare! Good thing Burton stopped it from being created.
I agree
It would be like one of those really bad fan-ficy direct to DVD (Vhs at the time) sequels with little to no effort put into it.
+Kristie Kat NO,he stopped it from being CGI but he and Henry selick are still thinking about it.
+Kristie Kat Just be glad there's that acceptable sequel which happens to be that PS2 game mentioned.

Doesn't anyone want to know what jack skellington did after he kissed sally?
Hank you for not saying Charlie and the chocolate factory doesn't suck! I love that movie! In fact I'm doing a play at the moment of willy wonka! With me as mike Teavee.
Tim Burton's Nightmare Before Christmas and Corpse Bride are masterpieces
Frankenweenie is wonderful too.
Also, Burton used a couple stop-motion effects in his first two live-action feature films: Pee-Wee's Big Adventure (Large Marge and the dinosaur nightmare) and Beetlejuice (Adam and Barbara's face morphing and Delia's sculptures moving).
And snake Beetlejuice
the sand worm looks close to the snake from nightmare before Christmas
Can I just say that Big Fish is so damn underrated? I don't know anyone who's watched it in real life or...on the net? It's my favorite movie ever and it always brings on dem feels. Hell it helped me cope with the worst of my PTSD/BPD/Depression. Everytime it tries to kill me, that movie, Edward Bloom...the scenery, the writing, the music, all of it, just...makes me want to keep on going. I can't explain it or give it justice but dammit I love that movie.
I'll always find it funny that Disney fired Tim Burton for his dark style, only to rehire him after his success letting him go loose with his dark style.
A few years back I had the opportunity to see Tim Burton's art exhibition at LACMA. I still say it was the most amazing experiences I've ever had at an art show. Getting to see Burton's early work from his teen years, all the way to sketches made for Corpse Bride was a thrill. I'll always have respect for the man, even if he's made movies like Dark Shadows and CATCF. Great lookback Animat!
i love Tim Burton's style. he can make creepy characters, but still give them a personality and can make them relatable. and unlike other claymation like Gumby or Wallace and Gromit, i don't see lumps of clay or lifeless puppets, the characters he create seem real. they have personality, motives to their actions, and flaws, whereas other films just make their characters stereotypes or cookie cutter characters. giving characters flaws and motives, makes the characters likable and relatable. and even though his art seems dark and scary, it also feels friendly and welcoming. and i've always loved stop motion. it takes a crazy amount of time and patients, because not only is it tedious to constantly go back and forth moving each puppet inch by inch (i heard it takes over an hour just to make one frame of a claymation movie, which is just nuts!) but you also have to make the sets and puppets, and if you want the puppets to be more expressive, sometimes you have to make multiple puppets for one character, that means they have to look identical and you constantly have to switch out puppets, which probably takes a long time. it must take years to make a claymation movie but it's always worth it. and Tim Burton takes time and effort to make sure his movies are perfect, and not just slaps it all together carelessly. Tim Burton is crazy because of all the effort in his art and i adore him for that.
Why is corpse bride not as famous as nightmare before christmas
I love Corpse Bride and feel like part of it may be due to merchandising. NBC has tons of it, even to this day, whereas Corpse Bride didn't
Corpse bride is the best Tim burton film
Cuz disney
Dove Nightingale i liked the LEGO movies from Warner animation group especially the LEGO ninjago movie because it’s very underrated. Sure, it has some flaws, but I enjoy the humor and my favorite part was when cole was all covered in mud and when he had mud on his face because the detail of the mud on him was amazing and I have a head canon that he loves to roll and play in the mud.
And why wasn’t it disney
Tim Burton's films are way better than any other film including hotel Transylvania
yeah and even disney movies
@E . A yes especially not beauty and the beast
tim burton holds a dear place in my heart. my mom was going through her goth phase in the late 90's and had me in 2001. she raised me on beetle juice & the nightmare before christmas & edward scissorhands (she also told me we were vampires and i had a sign over my bed that said rip ariya but that's a story for a different time). i saw corpse bride in theaters when i was four & forced my mom to buy it on dvd. been obsessed even since
3:23 Seriously Disney?
You made a movie talking about a queen who try to poison a young girl because she was more beautiful than her, that crazy episode where Pluto was experiment by a mad scientist and Mickey had to go and save him while almost died from being cut in half, and making THAT creepy scene 3:30
Not to mention a whole animated short about a headless ghost trying to kill a man so he can have his head
Nightmare Before Christmas, Corpse Bride, FrankenWinee, Edward Scissorhands, Beetlejuice, and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory are my favorites!!!
Can't you focus on his animated work, and only animated for now?
+KidSnivy69 What's wrong with my comment, get lost. Please.
The Lost Pearl Nothing, I just find it pointless bring Burton's live-action work into this unless it effects his animated movies
Tim Burton also worked as an inbetween animator for Ralph Bakshi’s 1978 animated feature “Lord of the Rings”. He was uncredited though
I would've love to see, in an alternate universe, where Tim Burton's The Black Cauldron was made and actually seeing it. You'd better believe it.
Some people get to work for Disney. And I'm all over here eating Ramen. :/
I'm not really complaining though. Ramen is good.
I love Tim Burrton's style.
If I had to make one critique, it would be that all of his main male characters are kind of Gary Stu's, or characters that are blatantly him in cartoon form. But the stories are usually so great I can overlook that.
Fantastic and in-depth review! Subscribed :)
These aren't really reviews as retrospectives
He did miss one though. Burton had a web series called The World of Stainboy.
Is it a sin that I like Corpse Bride over Nightmare Before Christmas?
Yeah, Nightmare was still pretty good and it's definitely a must watch around the Holiday Season, but I just like the concept of Corpse Bride better
Not at all. I'm fine with that.
It called opinions, not surprising at all
I like Corpse Bride better, though in general Frankenweenie is the best of all, i just love the mix of a suburbia with classical horror (the pet cementery is both funny and amazing on how you go from a stale suburbian place to a dark and twisted Burtonian cementery)
Don’t worry man, that’s an opinion nobody will hate you for having
@@supersebac320 I love Frankenweenie the best! I mostly love the setting but I can relate to young Victor Frankenstein on losing your beloved pet. It makes me think on if it's possible would I do the same thing?
My first Tim Burton movie was The Corpse Bride, anyone else?
Mine was Batman Returns.
Mine was The Nightmare Before Christmas.
Big Fish.
Sonimations Batman
It was by accident when i was 8 lol
I really don’t get why people don’t understand the morale of NBC, it’s one that a lot of people need to learn and be reminded of, beware of burn out, do something new and exciting even if it doesn’t work out, because in the end you’ll be better off emotionally than when you started
22:00 Yeah, that pretty much sums up someone watching any bad animated movie.
I'm currently attending the Art Institute of Chicago to become a filmmaker, and my biggest inspiration was Tim Burton. I love his movies, despite how his remake of Alice was a bit lackluster.
fun fact, danny elfmen isn't the only composer tim worked with, on that Hansel and Gretel movie he made, the composer for the music was the same guy who did the Mr Rogers theme
I was about to mention that he also did the designs for Brad Bird's Family Dog, but you did that anyway when talking about the inspiration for Sparky's design.
Either way, I love a lot of Tim Burton's works and it makes me wish he'd do more cartoons and animation. The Nightmare Before Christmas is one of my favorite stop-motion films and the other two aren't half-bad either, though I might want to re-watch them again at some point.
Personally, I wish you'd gone a little more into his live action films, like Edward scissorhands and sweeney Todd
Spyder Soup actually, he does like live action films too, but he specifically talks about animation only, so occasionally he has reviews of some live action films
Tim Burton is my favorite director and his film The Nightmare Before Christmas is one of my favorite Disney animated movies.
I just love Tim Burton! :) He's such a creative genius. I love most of his movies, but my favorite from him is The Nightmare Before Christmas. I love the art of that movie, and I'm a fan of it. I'm so lucky that I only live five hours away from Disneyland, I always love to spend my time over there, especially the holidays. I love the Haunted Mansion Holiday, I think it's better than the actual Haunted Mansion, and I love getting all of my Nightmare merchandise over at Disneyland. On October 31, 2013, I got to go to LA, and they were showing The Nightmare Before Christmas at the El Capitan theater for it's 20th anniversary. But they didn't show it in 3D, they showed it in 4D! :D They had in the theater: Christmas lights, pyrotechnics, real snow, and you can interact in movie like singing the songs. Downstairs in the theater, they also have the actual sets from the movie like: Halloween town hall center with the fountain, storyboards, and my favorite the spiral mountain. :) I really enjoyed myself and I'm happy for being a fan of Tim Burton. :D:D:D
the night mare before Christmas is not a tim burton movie it's a Henry selick film
Great job with the review. I've been watching Tim Burton films since I could remember and a lot of people who try to do a review on Tim Burton only focus films like; The Nightmare Before Christmas, The Corpse Bride, and Frankieweenie. Sometimes beetle juice and batman but very rare and not very in-depth. So thank you for trying to put in all the films he did.
I understand it is not the best film but Hotel Transylvania is not crap. It is just as good as Frankenweenie. That aside, I love your series about animation. Keep up the good work.
Raise your hand if you sang along to "This is Halloween" and didn't fully pay attention to what Mat was saying. (raises his own hand)
Tim Burton and Henry Selick, a hell of a team!
"Playing in a cemetery" That explains a lot actually
Haunted Mansion Holiday is my favorite Disney overlay ride .
21:16 Sad thing is... there are people who really DO think that Tarzan is the long-lost brother of Anna and Elsa (though I think the theory just makes no sense)
The theory is debunked by both the era and the geography.
I do think that Frozen, Tangled, and The Little Mermaid are all connected to each other but not Tarzan because that theory is not true, but the director of Tarzan and Frozen said they are both connected in some way, so that is my theory on all these Disney movies and really love all of the movies
The fuck?! Wow, bitches be crazy these days... I guess they also liked HT too XD
Big Z Hammer They're connected in two ways.
They were both made by Walt Disney Animation Studios.
They both share a co-director, Chris Buck.
That's it.
Its just as if I´d say:
The boy from The Rescuers Down Under is really Kristoff Who married Anna.Their daughter is princess Elena (The Black Cauldronand) her grandgrandson grew to become Louis (Meeet the Robbinsons) who built the future from Big Hero 6.
Are just dumb things fangirls invent.
However Jennifer Lee confirmed that Tangled and Frozen (only) are in the same Universe and time line. But that doesnt mean they are best friends and that stuff like Krstunzel or Flinsa can happen.
Despite liking hand-drawn animation better than any other animation type, I will say I like the story of Frankenweenie. Although I dislike the decision to make everything black and white, that does not stop me from liking the heart in that movie. When Victor is in a sad mood, it is somewhat had for me to hold back tears. Ultimately, all I want is for Victor to live a happy life again. It also helps that there are child actors voicing the children instead of adult impersonators. Needless to say, Frankenweenie is my favorite of Tim Burton's movies. I do appreciate The Nightmare Before Christmas for what it did for both the name of Stop Motion and Tim Burton's fame, but I can't enjoy it as a movie like I can Frankenweenie. Also, I have only seen Batman Begins and the Dark Knight, I have not seen any of Tim Burton's Batman movies or Corpse Bride. I may decide to someday, but I already know I am going to like Frankenweenie more.
Diego Diaz It's black and white cause it's homage to classic films.
he actually felt isolated most of his childhood and that kept him in his room drawing
Actually, Igor from "Frankenweenie" always more resembled Fritz as played by Dwight Frye in the original "Frankenstein" movie to me. He's got the dark hair and the big, expressive eyes.
Now this is what I call a great look back to a famous filmmaker's work. I loved Nightmare Before Christmas, great facts on it.
I loved that game theory reference. Awesome job I love your stuff :)
I like this review, but that jab at Hotel Transylvania was...uncalled for :P
I liked that one, it's one of Sandler's best roles in YEARS.
+Woodenfan I'll admit that you are right that Hotel Transylvania was Sandler's best film in YEARS...but then again, you can make almost any more look good in comparison to Jack & Jill, Pixels, That's My Boy, Blended, both Grown Ups films and more.
However, when you compare it to the other animated films at that time like ParaNorman and Frankenweenie, suddenly it doesn't look all that good, does it?
Just because I personally enjoyed it doesn't reflect on if a film/tv show is good or bad ;)
For example, I may not be the biggest Steven Universe fan, but I won't deny that the show is good, very good. :)
Overall, I'm going to keep watching, if I continue enjoying your content, I'll sub :D
:) I'll do a mini-marathon today :D
+Woodenfan I do agree with you that Sandler is brilliant in Hotel Transylvania. He really captures that role of the poor dad in denial, struggling to face the fact his darling little girl is her own person, and that he has to let go to some degree.
That said, an awesome performance from Sandler is not enough, in my eyes, to save Hotel Transylvania. It's not terrible, but, in my personal opinion, it was inferior to Frankenweenie.
Sort of watch his review and it will make sense to you,it's only good compared to the other stuff he made recently
my all time favorite director, thank you for this.
2:46 Agree
Im glad that Matt has slightly loosened his grip around Sony Animation's neck.
Shelly is also a reference to both Mary Shelly of Frankenstein and her husband Percy who was one of the great romantic poets of the age
Words can't describe how amazed I am at these beautiful movies. Love Tim Burton's work. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I love Tim burton's work💀👻💀👻💀👻💀👻💀👻
That theory about Frankenweenie, corpse bride, and TNBC all existing in the same universe has been debunked multiple times. However, awesome video! Very interesting and informative
I think you could at least talked somewhat more of Burton's non animated films like Pee-Wee and Beetlejuice for the stop motion history. But otherwise great look back Mat.
Corpse Bride is the only one of his films I've watched and it is one of my two favorite movies of all time (along with book of life).
Tim Burton was born in Burbank!? This explains so much... XD
i'm playing a weed game while i watch this serie: i hit the bong everytime you say "however". it's been a very informative trip my friend. keep up the good work!
What a fantastic and slick video man. Please make more.
Now looking at it, maybe it's time for Tim Burton give the same treatment to his once lost Hansel and Gretel film as he did with Frankenweenie.
I remember waiting out around the same week Frankenweenie and Hotel Transylvania was in theaters as a kid and seeing them both with my mother on the same day. I saw Frankenweenie first and then saw HT, only to think that Frankenweenie was better in comparison. I mean I laugh at HT but, liked Frankenweenie more as a kid and still do.
Mat:"But that's just a theory-"
Me:"oh ,.. I know where this is going "
The Nightmare Before Christmas is a stop-motion classic.
Franken weenie is a love letter to Burton’s Childhood and can be considered a semi autobiography. He had lost his childhood family dog when he was a boy and had always wanted to resurrect him back to life like in Frankenstein. Not only that but a lot of the characters in the film are based on his childhood friends or people from his childhood with of course Victor himself being based off of Tim Burton and Colin Clive’s take on the character of Victor Frankenstein. The setting for the film is based off of the suburbs of Burbank that surrounded Tim Burton’s childhood (It also inspired the neighborhood in Edward Scissorhands) and the daily life of Victor was also based off of Tim’s antics such as making home movies with his friends and showing it off to them and his parents.
Stopmotion makes me happy
I find it amazing that you never mention tim's wife sooner, she is in almost EVERY movie after they meet.
It's so weird to think about how old The Nightmare Before Christmas is. I saw it in the theater as a kid, yet it still doesn't seem "old" to me like Beetlejuice, Batman '89, etc.
Hotel Transylvania beat Frankenweenie?! "Um... I'm sorry, what?"
Lol Yes it grossed over 350 Million dollars and is getting a sequel later this year. The fact is that Frankenweenie had a lot going against the movie than Hotel did. 1st of it was black and white which a lot of people don't support anymore, & it was super dark. While Hotel was the exact opposite which connects with the wider audience. Opinions aside the fact is that the movie going audience Likes the big and colorful. the fact is in the money.
Yep, that is correct. Well, at least Frankenweenie got better reviews from the critics.
This movie came out in 1993,the same year of another acclaimed movie with groundbreaking effects:upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/e/e7/Jurassic_Park_poster.jpg

Your videos are soooo fun to watch!!!!!!!!
I love the Tim Burton version of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory!
That what you chose to focus on?
I focus on both live action and stop motion Tim Burton Films.
Bad news: We're alone
It's Connor Sherbondy
Well this video isn't about live action and is inconsequential to it
Same here; I find it very underrated.
Funny that Danny Elfman was in a band that made a song that included a music video with stop motion skeletons, and then years later worked on a movie involving a stop motion skeleton.
Also, "Animated Theories" should be a series.
How would the theory work? Did Victor go back in time to the Victorian Era?
That's why the theory doesn't work
Corpse bride is one of my FAVOURITE movies!
Did you ever see the Tim Burton exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City? It was a dream come true for me, I made an odyssey to see it!
Tim Burton should do animated films more often.
you mean stop motion animation
20:59 Hits different after Matpat's retirement
Yes, kids playing in the cemetary is completley normal and not f*cked up at all :3
My older brother & I used to play "hide & seek" in a casket showroom when we were kids in the early 1960's, as sometimes our folks, who both owned an ambulance company, and were partners with a local mortuary, (this was normal back then, there weren't paramedics in those days & most mortuaries owned the local ambulance companies). And yes, that would seem to be a pretty messed up childhood to people now, but even in times that seems fairly modern to most in the 21st century, death was something that was just a part of our everyday world.
Ok, why is this channel so perfect? And why isn't as popular as Pewdiepie and JonTron?
i love tim burton!
1:17 I played around in cemeteries when I was a kid.
Star Shard yeah for you your like Tim Burton when he was a kid
Star Shard I know right I also f*ked around in cementeries.
its depressing that tim switched to CGI
Great video,thanks for putting that together.
I am enjoying making my way through your massive library of content. Well done.
scary for kids my ass.... i grew up on beetlejuice i was 3 or 4 years old when i saw that. i was in the 3rd grade when this was out. Still my fav movie. :) i own a few jack skellington plushie.
my nephew saw this movie at 2 years old and loved it. And is a BIG fan of Halloween in-general.
About Danny Elfman having things with common with Jack Skellington which made his job as composing and writing songs for The Nightmare Before Chrsitamas easy, on the audio comentary for the DVD/Blu-ray he were once a member of a band called Oingo-Boingo but got sick of it and wanted to compose film score instead which lead to his long career of making film music, not only for Nightmare but for other Tim Burton movies such as Batman, Beetlejuice, Pee-wee's Big Adventure, Batman Returns, Mars Attacks and other movies and tv-series themes such as Peter Jackson's The Frighteners, Spider-Man, Batman the Animated series, The Simpsons, to name a few.
P.S. If Animat mentions Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer here..........WHY DOES HE NOT HAVE A SEPARATE LOOKBACK ABOUT RANKIN BASS?
The funny thing is, growing up, I'v never really been a big Tim Burton fan. I'v never really liked his movies beacuse I'v always thought they would be too scary and would freak me out when I was younger. However, It wasn't until recently when I saw The Nightmare Before Christmas I'v loved him ever sense! XD Now The Nightmare Before Christmas is my fav movie of all time! I'v also loved Tim ever sense too! LOL
Tim Burton is a Genius with Animation.
... Not so much with Live Action.
Did you know that Danny Elfman did the songs for all 3 Tim Burton stop motion films. Yep, all ten for nightmare, all 4 for corpse bride, and the only one that is in the hole film in Frankenweenie.
haha this channel and Game Theory are like my two fav channels!!! xD that's awesome!!
Nightmare before Christmas. My childhood
“Where Eisner usually puts his movies that are aimed more for adults” Does that mean Roger Rabbit is for adults?
I LOVE TIM BURTON❤ SO I LOVED THIS VIDEO TOO😊👌
9 is (not) a Tim Burton movie. It may have some influence, like how Martin Lindau who plays a rather large role in Burton's movies voices 2, 8 looks like Oogie Boogie, 6 looks like Tim Burton, but it had only been produced by him.
The real Stitchpunk God is Shane Acker.
Just wanted to let you guys know.
Corpse bride is my favorite animated flim of all time
This is awesome! Thanks so much!
21:48-22:03 Ain't gonna lie, I rather wanted to watch that back in the day as well, I'm not proud of it. Lol
6:53-7:05 I assume what Elfman actually meant was that he wanted to write songs for a change. Lol
Frankenweenie is so outstanding.
Victor My Favorite Character From Movie Corpse Bride
Yeah that theory doesn't pan out. The timeline do not add up, you'd have to reverse Frankenweenie & Corpse bride, then compensate for the jump from the 19th century to the 1970s.
Actually, a Nightmare film with Jack Skellington in Easter land with killer eggs sounds like it would've had potential. IDK, I was just amused by the idea of killer Easter eggs.
Thanks for sharing this video the corpse bride is 1 of my favourites with A nightmare before Christmas tim burtons films are amazing such details that go into each of the characters the puppets, & the costumes are handmade Great work to the stage Artists the puppeteers etc.
Awesome video dude. Great info. Love the sarcasm.
David Kelly was an excellent choice for Grandpa Joe.
