Tim Burton's 1982 animated Short VINCENT now available online

excuse me if i'm wrong but isn't "vincent" available on the "nightmare before christmas" dvd? what makes this 'on line version' any different?

I think you're right Jason - I seem to remember it being on a DVD, though I'm not sure if it was "Nightmare" or a different one....

Well, there are those of us who - strangely enough - don't have the Nightmare DVD ...

It was included on the SE Region One Edition of the DVD.

that's funny todd (i'm being sarcastic). i really am sorry for your loss, though. the next time i have some money to spare i'll buy you a copy of nightmare to help rebuild your collection.

My bad...

I still haven't upgraded my VHS version of Nightmare Before Christmas to DVD. I've had the Vincent short dl'd off the file sharing programs for a while. I thought it was pretty cool that it's available at the tip of your fingers now.

And yes, there are those of us who occasionally watch VHS...believe it or not...!

Blasphemy!

i still have a shit load of old vhs movies that you can't find on dvd but i never watch them. all my vcr is good for is taping episodes of smallville and oc while i'm out. meh.

Yep, Still have to watch my copy of QUICK CHANGE on VHS...Despite Bill Murray's (deserved) current God-like status at the moment...I don't know what Warners is waiting on...Until then...it's Grainy VHS.

I have to watch VHS if I ever want to see my precious Star Wars movies in their original forms (just finished A New Hope - I love that part when the stormtrooper knocks his head)!

Tracey, if you hunt around on Ebay (or Bittorrent) someone has nicely encouded the Laserdisc version of the original (un-modified in any way) Trilogy to DVD...Better than VHS, but I'm sure miles worse in sound/video quality to the recent DVDs...but its tolerable as it is the films you remember, not the revisionist ones.

Thanks Kurt - that's a fine idea. I had quite a scare last night at the sounds Empire was making as it was rewinding.

VCR: *whirr* *click* *screeeeee* *whirrr*
Me: AAAAH!

Is it just me or does this Vincent story kind of remind u of the Corpse Bride? Part of the narraration from Vincent says "He saw Abarcrombie his zombie slave, and heard his wife from beyond the grave. She spoke from her coffin, and made ghoulish demands, While through cracking walls reached her skeleton hands." The name of the guy in Corpse Bride is Victor and this boy's name is Vincent talking about a dead wife (corpse bride) Idk maybe its just me but I thought I saw kinda of a resembalnce between the two films.

Well, Tim Burton has been doing this particular schtick for a while, it doesn't surprise me to see him coming back to his roots for this...

But it's not what you do, but how you do it. I'm really looking forward to Corpse Bride...people have been really mixed on the film with some loving it, some being just meh...Looking forward to deciding for myself on this one...

Well,i realize that alot of people have the nightmare before christmas dvd but i cant figure out how to watch vincent on it, all the bonus material does is mention it in the making!! where the hell is it? i tried the link for the downloadable site but it doesnt work for me.... someone help me out and send a link!!!

I've noticed people getting confused about the DVD material... why not take time to search all of the material... takes a while but it's worth it. Oh, and gabriela, I have both Frankenweenie and Vincent on my DVD version, but by no means will I destroy my VHS version!!!
