nightmare before christmas


Even though the movie isn't directed by Tim Burton, should it still be called a Tim Burton movie? On the one hand, it was his original story idea and has some of the same elements as other Burton movies, but on the other hand, his involvement in the day-to-day decisions and work was limited if not in fact nonexistent

It should be considered a Tim Burton movie because not only is it in Tim Burton “format” but also the original Idea was Tim Burtons and he’s the one that introduced it to the movie makers and they helped him complete it. If I have an idea and I don’t have the means to make it come to life, I’m going to take my idea to somebody and have them help me so it can come to life. As a result I would want credit for this since it was originally my idea. The argument that Tim Burton took all the credit is flawed because if Tim Burton took all the credit it would only have his name in place of all the credits and it doesn’t, does it?
