There would be NO movie - NO videogames, no before-christmas books, no videogame sequel or merchandise, NONE of it: Without burton and his work he fine tuned for most of his life.

It's annoying that Disney wanted no association with this movie. But when it went from being just a movie with a cult following, to a very successful IP years later, and they saw the potential to milk this every Halloween for the rest of eternity, Disney was more than willing to slap their name on it. Especially considering Disney didn't really have a trademark Halloween IP to oversaturate the market with. And in the 90's, Halloween was quickly becoming the #2 commercial holiday. It's like how Shaq's biological father was never in his life. But once he became a successful NBA player, he wanted back into his life.

I think theirs a difference between “directing” a live action film vs a stop motion film. The latter being a lot more tedious, technical and workman like. NBC was Burton’s vision and his fingerprints are all over the thing. Selick came in oversaw the tedious technical part of bringing it to life. He deserves credit for the job he did, but this was always Tim Burtons thing. It’s similar to George Lucas and his role with the Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi - he didn’t do the actual directing of either of those films. He was a very hands on producer and wrote the plots/stories for them. No one thinks of those as Irvin Kershner or Richard Marquand’s films, even though they are the respective directors of Empire and Jedi. That’s because Lucas’ influence is all over those movies. So despite Henry Selick “directing” the NBC - I think it’s really obvious how integral Burtons influence is to the movie. I also think given the strength of the music/songs that Danny Elfman is another contributor that’s equally important to the movie. Much like this video, I tend to agree that all three- Burton, Selick and Elfman should be credited with the creation of the Nightmare Before Christmas. But I do think it all starts with Burton - it simply doesn’t exist without him.

The idea for A Nightmare Before Christmas may have come from Tim Burton's mind but with that movie it was a big collaboration, between Tim Burton, Henry Selick and the stop-motion artists, and the music and lyrics of Danny Elfman. Tim Burton gets the highest credit because he was the originator of the idea, so if Henry Selick can't handle that then he needs to never collaborate on another adaptation again and only go with what he comes up with himself, that way the ideas are creator-owned and he receives all of the accolades.

Years later Burton wanted to revisit it so he produced the film, and came up with the art, Sellick had the team who did the leg work and he was in charge of them. Burton was the producer so he was in charge of Sellick. So it’s Burton’s story told by another guy. I thi k they deserve equal praise since they couldn’t make this by themselves.

We all know what it looks like when Tim Burton directs a stop-motion musical - and Corpse Bride sucks balls!!

For YEARS I disparaged Burton and those that insisted Nightmare was his film. This dive has made me recant my opinion. Now, Selick definitely deserves all the credit for the legwork and the direction, but it certainly seems like it was Burton’s vision. That said, I don’t think it’s fair to credit anyone the way you would in a live action film. So, to say it’s all of theirs seems the most fitting.

Was Tim's short story and co producer, Jorgans final character design which was heavily influenced on Tim's initial artwork, Caroline wrote the script and helped set the story boards and Selick was director/producer.. They all had a hand in creating this world. As if who truly owns it legally it would be Burton..

Fascinating story! Thank you for going over clickbait titles calmly and fairly and explaining everyone's contribution. My fave part of the movie is definitely the soundtrack and Danny surely deserves more light on him every time the movie comes up! But everyone did an amazing job to bring the story to life and Disney can go choke on a candy cane for it's treatment of creators.

They all get their own credits. Thats why credits like "composer", "producer", "director", "story by", and "writer" all exist. The question "who gets "the credit" for it" is too nebulous, and "Tim Burton's" was obviously more for marketing than a credit. It's the film, in earnest, belongs to Disney.

Tim Burton created the world and characters, developed the songs with Danny Elfman and produced the movie. In Hollywood a director is often just a work-for-hire job to bring the producer's ideas to life, and a creative producer is as much, if not more, creatively in charge. In this case, Henry Selick was hired to handle the day job of bringing Tim Burton's ideas to life.

I've always had the opinion that it's Tim Burton production by design but the one truly responsible behind the overall direction and who really made the film what it is was Henry Selick. There are two sides of the same coin and in many ways are equally as important but I think Henry's contribution is far more significant.

Tim Burton drew the characters, wrote the story, did all of the design details, drew the sets, and is responsible for all of the production techniques to be used. Tim Burton made The Nightmare Before Christmas. The confusion comes from the fact that stop motion animation takes such a long time that Burton did other projects while photography was being done. It is similar to Irvin Kershner or Richard Marquand are credited as directors of Empire and Jedi. Lucas was filming the special effects, creating all of the design elements, editing and basically helping the "directors" who were directing the actors while Lucas was working on everything else. So Sellick was a hired gun to film Burton's vision. Lucas was generous with crediting their contributions - but it's his film.

They should have just released it as Disney's Touchstone Pictures Presents Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas: A Henry Selik film.

Whether he was there to hover and look over everyones shoulder or do something else because he trusts the team isn't of the question. The movie was his brain-child and his leadership style doesn't put into question whether the story or character designs would ever exist without him directly coming up with them himself. I dont think Henry would be happy with your answer that all of them made the movie.

It works like the Marvel movies. Marvel owns the characters, world, IP, all that. It's not "Joss Whedon's The Avengers" because Joss Whedon only directed it, he didn't have a hand in conceptualising The Avengers. It's nothing personal against Henry Sellek, but the fact is, Tim Burton was a bit of a name in the early 90s, not a household name, but someone with a few projects under his belt that families would be familiar with. Sellek didn't, doesn't exactly have that popularity, and when trying to market an incredibly niche movie, when trying to sell people on making a movie, you might need to give the audience a bit of a nudge by using a name people know. Henry Sellek wants credit for having directed this, while aping off Tim Burton's style, to the point where it's indistinguishable from Burton. It's Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas because he created the world, the characters, the look, the style guide, and knew the guy who would do the music for it. It's his thing, he just didn't direct it.

I grew up in the 80's (born 1974) and lots of movies had Steven Spielberg presents above the title (back to the future, gremlins, goonies, just to name a few) and as a kid I always thought he made those movies...

Based on Tim Burton's concepts, drawings and general direction WITH Danny Elfmans's songs AND Caroline Thompson's efforts to string it together into a coherent story makes TNBC story even possible. Yeah Henry directed it and HIS team made the models and shot it all but its not like Henry created anything him and his team were shooting. Remember Henry was hired BY Tim Burton for this film. Remember a key detail here is that TNBC tanked when it opened, meaning Tim Burton's name was on it when it tanked. I think it was only when the film gained traction after, before Disney wanted it back, Henry realized that he wouldn't get the recognition for it and then began complaining. Henry has had a great career before and since, he hasn't recognized he was only a part of the bigger picture. Its Tim's.

I do agree that Henry Selick's name should be more well known for this movie, but whenever a youtuber or Podcaster makes it sound like Tim Burton had nothing to do with the movie, it does get under my skin.
