Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas: The Full Film Script

After reading this book, there is no doubt in my mind that Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas had a lot of work put into it with many complex layers. Seeing the long process blows my mind because the final product is flawless. (Too bad they probably won’t make the sequel as a movie.) I’ve always cherished the movie’s storyline, characters, and theme. Seeing all the stages it took to create the masterpiece is intriguing. Jack and Sally’s relationship has been the driving force for me. I am fond of the cover between them. Tim Burton’s artwork is unique, dark, and romantic. I believe this film caused Tim Burton to skyrocket in popularity. Perhaps one of the most shocking parts is the initial design of Sally’s figure. I am pleased they decided to change her looks to the present. I am delighted with this book’s condition and its contents. It’s a great read. Anyone who is a Tim Burton fan or likes The Nightmare Before Christmas should purchase this volume to get an in-depth understanding of the tedious process.
