- It's Christmas Eve and the spirit is high! If you like identity crises resulting from a repetitious lifestyle then you'll love this full movie reaction to Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas!
*Excuse the heavy copyright editing; Disney came for my throat with this one. - Розваги
Santa must’ve gotten my list, cuz all I wanted for Christmas was Alanda THEE Parker 💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻
Period!!!
ZZAAAAVVVIDDDDD!!!!
Omg u guys literally the only 2 reactors I subbed to LOL My 2 worlds collide! Spiderman who?!?!
I too was waitin'
Love your vids too. My mind in blown. Reactor universes colliding, lol.
"He's got voodoo, he's got hoodoo, he's got things he ain't even tried" LOVE the Princess and the Frog reference, lol! :D
Literally you’re the best reactor. You’re so real and Unedited and funny af! 👌👍
this man speaks truth!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥👊🏻❤️🙏
Facts. She is amazing
I watch a few reactors and the rest can’t hold a candle to her. I’d watch her all day every day!
I know that’s right🙌🙌🙌🙌
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I crack up seeing all the reactor’s when they hear “bone daddy” in this movie. It’s obviously taken on a much different content today 🤣🤣🤣
Can we all give love to the actual director of this movie "Henry Selick". He always gets lost when people talk about Nightmare before Christmas. Yes it was Tim Burtons short story and some characters, but the direction was actually Henry Selick 🎃🎃🎃
And she mentioned Coraline after saying more Tim Burton, haha. Another Henry Selick! I adore HS.
Sally is voiced by the iconic Catherine O'Hara!
I KNEW THAT VOICE WAS HELLA FAMILIAR!!!!
@@AlandaParker You should look up the live version of the actors singing the songs.. So fun to watch. They show the movie behind them while they sing live..
You would absolutely LOVE Edward Scissorhands! It's a bittersweet and beautiful story that is also very aware of itself. That makes for a really cool combination in my opinion. I think it's peak Tim Burton!
This movie always warms my heart so, so much. It was the movie that (weirdly) my grandma and I bonded over when I was a little boy. She and I would watch it, multiple times a week, my entire childhood when she was raising me. I'm missing her this year, but this is like a little connection with her. Happy holidays!!
So sweet, so beautiful!! Happy Holidays!!!
🥺🥰🙏🏾
Sleepy Hollow is probably my favorite Tim Burton movie. Visually stunning horror. Merry Christmas Alanda. You have added so much joy to my year.
Girl your roasts against Finklestein are the best things I've ever heard 😭
One of my favorite movies. I was 7 when it released in '93. I do want to clarify something though. This was actually NOT Disney. It was Touchstone pictures, Touchstone pictures was bought by Disney a few years later, and with it they got the rights to Nightmare Before Christmas. This movie was made before the buy out. It was also made by the same studio that did James and the Giant Peach. The music is by Danny Elfman who does most of Tim Burton's music as well as the music for James and the Giant Peach.
Touchstone was always Disney; it was a separate distribution company they created to put out more mature movies, like _Pulp Fiction_
This got put out as a Touchstone movie because Disney was nervous about this weird thing, and were quite surprised when it turned into a huge marketing machine.
Oh my god 🙂 its a Christmas miracle . Canr believe you managed to fit this one in .
Thank you for brightening up a pretty miserable Xmas eve for me
Hope you have a great Christmas and I can't wait for whatever you've got for us in the new year Xx sending good vibes and festive cheer to you gurl 😘
🥰🥰🥰 I hate that your Christmas Eve is miserable but I sure as hell understand it. Happy to toss a lil happy your way!!!
And thank you so much, Love! Hoping your new year is a lot brighter 💛
The Nightmare before Christmas is a classic 🥰 I watched it a lot as a kid, the animation was truly something special, especially when you learn that it was all done with hand-made stop-motion. One fun fact though to keep in mind the with the movie is that Tim Burton actually didn't make the film, he mainly came up with the concept for it as it was based on one of his poems he wrote and his drawings of Jack Skellington & Zero and eventually went on to draw the rest of the cast for the movie in pencil sketches while giving short bios of the characters. He entrusted everything else (the character figures and the stop motion animation process) to Henry Selick who was the overall director of the film. It's funny you mentioned James and the Giant Peach and Coraline because those are films that Henry Selick directed as well, The Nightmare Before Christmas was his big break that got him into the industry. The main reason why they put Tim Burton's name on the project was because at the time Disney thought his name would attract more attention since he already had some notoriety thanks to his films like Edward Scissorhands and Beetlejuice.
But yeah it was super fun to see your reaction to the film, your commentary is very lively. If I could recommend a future Tim Burton, definitely check out Corpse Bride, that's personally one of my most favorites but biases aside, it has a really nice story and a nice continuation of beautiful stop motion ☺
Great movie + adorable reactor = fantastic time.
Merry Christmas and have a great New year everyone...
🥰🥰🥰
So, like a lot of animated movie characters, Jack's singing and talking voices are different guys. Originally, Danny Elfman had intended to play Jack in the dialogue sections as well as the songs, but he didn't deliver a satisfactory performance so Chris Sarandon ( _Fright Night_ , _The Princess Bride_ ) was called in to do all of Jack's dialogue. In the video game sequel to this movie, Sarandon does both Jack's dialog and singing.
And I'm not surprised this gave you _James and the Giant Peach_ vibes; same guy directed both movies, Henry Selick. (If you go back and watch the latter movie, Jack has a cameo as a pirate skeleton)
Love this one. The claymation is and will forever be iconic. Tim Burton has such a distinctive style and I love it.
I really did like the scene at the end where Santa comes back to bring snow to halloween town
just the sight if the two holidays/their icons saluting each other was a great touch.
"We love a tear away. Give us drama!" 😂
I've just come across your vids this week but I am OB.SESSED! Your commentary is prob the best out of any reactor on UA-cam, huge fan of your Scream vids especially
Couldn't have said it better.
Thank you so much 😊💛!!
@@AlandaParker he’s telling the truth 💕
I remember being being 8 yrs old when this came out but watching this a year later when my neighbor lending our fam the VHS .. we loved everything about it… Great review girly Hope you had a great Holiday 🏳️🌈❤️
Hope you did as well Love! 💛
Man, I love your outfit!! Absolutely gorgeous! So glad you reacted to one of my favourite childhood movies.
just have to comment about how much I looove that shirt!! the whole outfit is everything, beautiful as always
PS it's all claymation which makes it even more badass
Its always a fun time when Alanda uploads 🥳🥳
perfect way to start this morning, love your videos sm 😭🖤
I love this movie, but I think my favorite Tim Burton directed movies are Edwar Scissorhands (which you mentioned was on your list) and Big Fish. Both are such beautiful stories and were shot amazingly. If you haven't seen Big Fish I would highly recommend you add that to the list.
Thanks I def will!! And Edward Scissorhands is coming soon!
The Nightmare Before Christmas is my favorite movie of all time. I'm so glad you watched and enjoyed it! 🎃🎄
I recommend you watch Frankenweenie! It's another stop-motion animation film so I'd also recommend watching behind the scenes on how they film them. It's amazing to watch and you have such a huge appreciation of the work that goes into making them!
I always look forward to new videos from you! Happy Holidays!
Thanks for the rec!! Happy holidays 😊💛
I was a freshman in college when this came out. My roommate and I wore out the cassette tape of the soundtrack twice.
I am so glad you finally watched The Nightmare before Christmas. It has been my favorite movie since I first watched it. It came out when I was 11 but I was probably 12 when I saw it. We didn't go to the theater often. That was a rare treat. My Dad took my Brother and I to Walmart and we bought The Nightmare before Christmas on VHS. We wore that tape out. Lol. It never scared me or my Brother who was 3 years younger than me. We both have a strange sense of humor. So this movie was awesome to us. Still my favorite and every now and then I will paint a Nightmare before Christmas scene for my Brother Zach. Thanks for watching it and I am so happy you enjoyed it.
I adore your reactions ( your wit is incomparable👌🏽) but can you drop a hair tutorial?🙏🏽🥰
Your blow outs are top tier I need deets!
Thank you Babe! I’ll see what I can do 😄💛
I really love your videos ! If you want other Tim Burton movies I recommend Sleepy Hollow and Dark Shadows (of course Edward Scissorhands but you mentioned it) can’t wait til your next reaction, merry Christmas queen !
Glad you seen it. Its a shame when folks dont see the classics during their own childhood to the full appreciation of such works that require those youthful qualities and inclination toward wonder which make for the full enjoyment of such works. But again, glad you have seen it finally.
I remember watching this movie as a kid and many of my friends were afraid of it 🤣 I never understood why, it’s so jolly and high spirited. And you can watch both on Halloween and Christmas. Win win situation. Happy Christmas everyone 🎄🎉🥂
Alanda, your facial expression at 6:57 is to die for. I asked Jack Skeleton and he agrees you can visit Christmas Halloween town any time you wish. You were so excited to discover this twisted version of the Christmas cheer. Your reaction was simply flawless.
It's a joy to watch someone watch this for the first time and still enjoy it. It's timeless! I'm such a sucker for stop motion pics, this and James and the Giant Peach included. For the longest time, I had a crush on Jack; who doesn't love an energetic Bone Daddy? LOL
Fun fact, the director, Henry Selick, is doing another one for Netflix in 2022 starring and written by Key & Peele! It's called Wendell and Wild
It is so beautifully done! I’ll def be there for this new film, sounds 🤌🏾!!!
"Who gonna check me boo?" LOL!!!! That is why I watch all your videos. :)
BEST reactor of all time continues to deliver! Your commentary is so perfect, I just love your mind and how you think, you’re so quick and witty! Love love love you! Have a happy holiday, a merry Christmas and a blessed Kwanzaa Alanda!
Little fun trivia.
Tim Burton worked for Disney as an animator (for instance on Fox and the hound. He tried to make this movie during those years but Disney wasn't having it (back then).
After he left Disney and made in his own movies and after the smash hit of Batman, Disney came crawling and asked him to make it then.
But by then he was too busy making Batman Returns, so he asked Henry Selick to make it in his stead. (The same Henry Selick that made James and the giant peach and Coraline.)
Disney still found this movie too dark for their wholesome image so at first, they released it under Touchstone Pictures.
I would really recommend Edward Scissorhands and Sleepy Hollow as well.
Happy Holidays and a happy new year from Sweden.
Hi Alanda Parker. First of all, absolutely loved the jewelry...flawless! I'm glad you enjoyed Nightmare Before Christmas. You cracked me up when you advised the character to get moisturizer for her hair. Tim Burton also did the the first serious (semi serious) film treatment of Batman in 1989. Hope you review it soon. Merry (belated) Christmas and Happy New Year!
Why is so calming 🤎🤎🤎🤎
My hubby and I have a lightshow for Christmas at our house. As we set it up and make new attractions we sing "making Christmas". 😂
You know what I appreciate the most from you, is not necessarily the reactions in general, but that your responses such a great vocabulary. You got such a large education of words that we don't use regularly, and words that I've been used in a long time, and it's consistent and every video. The I understand that it's just who you are as a person, but it's so wonderful to hear and listen to. 👍 have you ever considered doing an audiobook?!
As far as Tim Burton goes please PLEASE watch Big Fish. By far my favorite of his long career. That I can promise you’ll love.
Lots of recs for this! Def on the list now! 😊 thank you
The speaking voice for Jack is Chris Sarandon, who is also the main in Fright Night. I think you'd like it too
Well this just made my Christmas! When I was growing up, my sister and I would watch this movie every year 🌟🎄🌟
6:31 “he was grabbed by the winds of change”
Mmmmm, nice methaphor.
fun fact: kidnap mr sandy claws is sung by danny elfman (who did the music for this and a lot of other burton movies), paul reubens, and catherine o’hara!
This is the first reaction video I’ve seen from you and it won’t be last. We would be great friends!
Luv this Reaction, Had Fun Watching it. Luv the Songs, This Is Halloween & Kidnap The Sandy Claw... Also Luv Marilyn Manson's Cover of "This Is Halloween & Korn's Cover Of "Kidnap The Sandy Claw", Great Reaction Keep It Up 🤘😎 Merry Christmas 🎄🎅
My husband and I used that last verse between Molly and Jack about being meant to be on our wedding announcements. We love this movie so much--it's such a surprisingly affecting love story.
Vincent is a sweet little short animation stop motion movie that is one of my favorites. Happy holiday. Got to head on out to work.
I would highly recommend the two Burton Batman movies - 'Batman' is still great; 'Batman Returns' is one of my absolute favorite films. They're not, perhaps, for everyone (though they certainly were popular enough back in the day), but they are classics, regardless, and there's an awful lot of current movies that would simply never have been made if it hadn't been for their influence. (Also, Danny Elfman - who scored most Tim Burton-related projects - scored both, and if you listen closely to the 'Batman Returns' score, you'll hear hints of a few of 'Nightmare's songs. It's well-worth listening to, anyway, 'cause it is GORGEOUS.)
She sings so nicely 18:08
I genuinely watch your reactions repeatedly. Maybe because it seems we grew up around the same time, , but you are a joy to watch.
Thank you so much 😊 💛
Eating breakfast while watching this :) Have a Merry Christmas!!
Merry Christmas to you too 🥰
Jack Skellington makes a cameo in the movie James And The Giant Peach. 🎃 ❤ 🎄
Tim Burton actually repeatedly confirmed that he was not involved with Coraline. Which explains how horrifying it was.
That was all Neil Gaiman.
I saw this in theaters in 1993, and it's been one of my all-time favorite movies ever since!
"Pasty duck-lipped fool" is how I will always think of him now.
Lol dude in wheelchair scared me when I was little 😂
Thanks for your great reactions. Hope you had a wonderful Christmas Alanda & best wishes to you & your family for a Happy New Year. 🥳
Merry Christmas and Happy holidays ! You look great !
Thank you!! Happy holidays to you too!! 😊
Patchwork Princess😆 Asking if Sally sewed her knees wrong lolz omg all my life, I always thought Sally's legs looked so weird when she was walking up those steps
This movie is timeless. It could come out today and still be a hit
Your ability to crack me up is unmatched 🤣🙏🏻 Legit the best reactor!
Thanks 😄💛!!
This is one of my top five favorite Disney movies. And it can be a little triggering for some kids. My son was an emotional wreck when they kidnapped Santa. I felt so bad, I had to ensure him it was going to turn out o.k.
you rocking the holiday fabulousness
🥰🥰🥰
Happy holidays Alanda! You're one of the best UA-camrs i've found this yearrr 😭💖💖
Thank you so much, love! Happy Holidays!!!
💛🙏🏾😊
Fun fact: There's actually a sequel in the form of the canon videogame "Oogie's Revenge".
I recommend a Tim Burton movie called Ed Wood. The story is about a not so great movie director, Ed Wood, and his efforts to make, in the end, terrible movies. Drama/Comedy. It stars Johnny Depp, Sarah Jessica Parker, Martin Landau and Bill Murray. I also recommend another Tim Burton movie called Pee-wee's Big Adventure. The story is about Pee-wee Herman (Paul Ruebens) traveling across the US in search of his stolen bicycle that he cherishes. Comedy/Family. Thanks for the upload. Nightmare is one of my favorite movies. I saw it as a kid when it came out and loved it. I've always liked dark stuff and with Danny Elfman doing the music and singing as Jack it was a hit for me and my family. Glad you enjoyed it. Merry Christmas!
Thanks for the recs!! And Merry Christmas!! 💛
Love the title lol. This has been a favorite of mine for pretty much my whole life. 🖤💀🎄
My favorite Christmas movie. Great choice again 👏🏻
The kids were terrified of the HallowChristmas gifts from Jack Skellington, but years later when it costs $70.00 ON AMAZON they're gonna wish they kept it!
I was 10 when this movie came out 😅 I even remember the trailer on tv , it showed the boy opening the gift with the head 😂😂 now I’m grown with two girls of my own who love the movie 💓 when we went to Disney in 2019 we all met Jack and sally 💗 we are hoping to visit Disney world again next year and we wanna meet them again , my youngest even wants to be zero for Halloween and dress up for the Disney event , she said I have to dress as Jack since zero is his dog 😂😂 I don’t mind since I adore Jack , I own so much nightmare before Christmas stuff 😆
When I’m told to put my stuff away after Halloween im like fine and then bring out all the Christmas theme Jack .. so I still win 😂😂
This was always a great movie for both Halloween AND Christmas!😂👍🏿
Yaaasss Miss Alanda!! One of my childhood faves!!!
Merry Christmas! The bobbles were perfect 😁
🥰🥰🥰Merry Christmas!
Halloween is coming up soon and I saw this video. :) The Oogie Boogie definitely freaked me out as a kid, lol. Cut open an evil sack only to find a bunch of bugs. 😨
Fun fact: The head in the bass is none other than Danny Elfman. He wrote the music for the film.
Speaking of Coraline and James & The Giant Peach, this movie was directed by the same guy who made those movies, Henry Sellick. Though this movie is more of a Tim Burton-movie because he created, written and produced this movie. He was supposed to direct this one also, but he couldn't because of busy schedule.
Actually the director is Henry Selick. It was just based on Tim Burton's poem and he was one of the producers.
Yessss!!!! I LOVE THIS MOVIE (I’m wearing a shirt with Jack on it right now actually!!😂😂😂) AND YOU LOOK ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL!!!👏🏼👏🏼
This is my favourite festive movie ! Love your reactions, girl xx
This is a Danny Elfman movie in my opinion...I adore the stop motion art for sure but the music is everything in this classic ❤ fantastic reaction as always..
Looking great love the Choker and the reactions. Merry Christmas and Happy new Year.
Thanks 😊! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you too hon!!
*I GOT TO SEE THIS MOVIE WITH A LIVE ORCHESTRA! AND IT WAS AWESOME!*

Hi Alanda The nightmare before christmas was one of my favorite movies for the holidays I can't wait for the next video 🤗
I never watched reaction videos on a regular.. Then there was You ☺️ You are so entertaining and funny 🥰 Keep the videos coming
😊💛 thank you
Batman Returns! That’s my fav Tim Burton movie, and it’s basically a Christmas movie lol 🦇 🐈⬛ 🐧 🎄 ❄️
Lotta people clarifying that Burton had nothing to do with Coraline: let me give you some background. When it came out back in 2009, Neil Gaiman wasn't as big a name as he is now. He was know in the comics community for Sandman and in the fantasy community for his novels, but he wasn't really mainstream, so the studio didn't have confidence in using his name to market it. What they did know was that it was stop--motion, directed by Henry Selick, and was kiddie-creepy. So they HEAVILY marketed it as, "From the director of The Nightmare Before Christmas'. However since Nightmare was heavily marketed with Tim Burton's name, most people assume he directed it. That, combined with the similar tone is why people associate Burton with Coraline.
Patchwork princess. What a great name. You definitely have to join the Tim Burton writing team.
Alanda a truely unique look - spiked wrist bands with jewels.
Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and Happy New Year, Alanda!
One of my favorite movies Merry Christmas 🎅
One of my favorite movies. I watch it every October and December! Two things:
1) If you liked the music in this film (because it is objectively excellent), there's an album called Nightmare Revisited where artists cover all the different songs. Amy Lee from Evanescence does Sally's Song, Rodrigo y Gabriela cover Oogie Boogie's song, I think Rise Against, Marilyn Manson, and RJD2 are on there too. Highly recommend.
2) As far as Tim Burton recommendations, if you haven't seen Big Fish yet... please. You must. It's honestly my favorite Burton film ever, between the soundtrack, the acting, and the storytelling.
Happy holidays and thank you for putting your joy into the world, one snarky comment at a time! :)
i’ve never seen this movie either, i always love your reactions, happy holidays & omg you should definitely watch edward scissorhands, a visual masterpiece for sure!!
