Maybe the mate of the woman below? Corpse Bride is very much like The Nightmare Before Christmas. The songs aren't as good and the stop-motion animation is far better. The improvements in the animation makes me wonder if stop motion animation can get a any better than this. I'm not sure. This films seems technically perfect. If you enjoy Tim Burton's dark vision, this is it in its purest form. He co-directed and designed the characters. I quite enjoyed it! Oldboy is a Korean film that I saw last night due to insomnia. Yet another fresh film from asia. It seems as if there are no rules in asian cinema, and the sushi restaurant scene seems to prove that. A great revenge film. Another nice trend lately is Hollywood is making some overtly political movies again. After years of cowardice, our polpular films are starting to reflect the times we live in. With the war, corruption, and deceipt we are exposed to nightly on the news, it is about time that a few films addressed these issues. Syriana, Good Night and Good Luck, The Constant Gardener, and possibly Lord of War (I haven't finished it yet) are a sign of more challenging films coming out of Hollywood. I've seen The Constant Gardener and it doesn't have a happy ending. Films with happy endings rarely reflect reality, and hardly ever cause one to think beyond the credits.
