Saw it with the wife and kid yesterday. I thought it was pretty good. My wife didn't like the songs as much as she did those of Nightmare Before Christmas, but since I usually don't pay attention to singing... It also held my son's attention most of the time, and considering he's almost 3...
I thought the plot was decent. There were a couple predictable elements, but the movie never treated them like they were crucial, so that was alright. I kept wondering how they were going to find a resolution, and when they did, I was satisfied with it.
The animation, of course, was amazing.

Yeah, that'd be nice. I don't know if I'll have time to see Corpse in the theatres, but will definately see it on DVD. Since I love Nightmare, but don't own it, the double pack would be perfect! Of course, that'd be too convenient wouldn't it?

Sounds like a "must-see" for me, either now or later.

Glad to be of service. Hmm. Wonder if they would get that double pack out before x-mas?
"It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past. Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.”
