A new post

I'm posting this purely because I don't want the first thing people see when they visit my blog to be a "terrible mistake" (referring to the previous blog post). Since I'm pretty bored now I shall share my obsession with the Tim Burton movie--"The Nightmare Before Christmas" and dark but non-disturbing things.

To be honest I have not watched the film at all. But as people around me may know I always have obsessions with things I don't know (or half knowing). Firstly, completely unrelated I came across this video that my friend shared on facebook:

Although dark and a bit creepy I really love the story, and I don't find the vampires scary at all. It is a story of love, though in a creepy setting.

And so started my love for dark things. I have always loved black cats, vampires and bats, and witches too (not that kind of old ugly grumpy witches but more of girls in long black dresses with magical powers). I think being a vampire is not bad, you get to fly and hang upside down which is quite awesome and even teleport (can vampires teleport?).

I vaguely remembered hearing of a movie (the nightmare before christmas) so I did a search of it. Quite a lot of searches actually. And now I really want to watch it.

The graphic, firstly, is fantastic. Everything is so beautiful and curly, and the characters are so well designed. The music is wonderful too, the words rhyming so perfectly. Overall, I really love the style of the film.

Here's the intro:
(and I love the theme song so much)

And then I came across this awesome minecraft the nightmare before christmas train ride which is unrelated to my post whatsoever but so great that I'm putting it down.

This is the original trailer:

Oh just look at how nice the graphic is:

And then I realised that the same director/producer Tim Burton also directed many nice films, such as Frankenweenie. Of course there are many epic ones like batman too. But I like Frankenweenie and haven't really watched his other films. Should watch some day.

And I also came across this short video on youtube.

Oh isn't it lovely.

The dark side seems nice. I don't know why I seem to be drawn to those dark and mysterious things. As long as it doesn't involve blood and death, I'm fine.
