This Halloween, please remember to take a moment to be thankful that we have never been subjected to a remake of The Nightmare Before Christmas starring Johnny Depp as a quirky, off-beat, more fuckable Jack Skellington

Since remakes of this kind were, for a good few years, the substantial bulk of Johnny Depp's acting portfolio, with the assistance of Nightmare Before Christmas producer Tim Burton, it's actually pretty surprising that this hasn't happened yet.

I know that the Hot Topic-ification of the movie has ruined it for some people, but having just rewatched it for the spooky season I must reiterate that it is a great movie. Some of Danny Elfman's finest musical work. It has just enough bizarrely-out-of-place anti-aircraft fire to not feel too much like a kid's movie.
