Corpse Bride Trailer

Check out the Corpse Bride trailer. What a beautiful piece of work. I'm excited to see the film. But, is it just me or is this thing look almost exactly like Nightmare Before Christmas? I know the same guy is directing it and that is his style. But man, it just irks me that it is so similar in so many ways.

Not the same director. Henry Selick directed 'Nightmare.' Mike Johnson, who was an animator on 'Nightmare' is directing "Corpse Bride." Henry Selick is now working for Vinton Studios, in Portland Oregon, directing his next stop motion film. ** An interesting side not: Vinton is now owned by Phil Knight, founder and owner of Nike. So hopefully Henry will now have the revenue and room to create. Woo Hoo!**

my apologies. I had a brain fart and thought Selick was directing Corpse Bridge. I guess the similarity is coming from Burton? I wish I knew more about this project.

..nice trailer, nice look,..the style similarities don't bother me...
But I can't tell if it's stop-motion or CG, or both...
