Nightmare Before Christmas 2?

One of the biggest pieces of entertainment news just sprung to my attention. Apparently, as if Hot Topic needs more merchandise with Jack Skellington's face, Tim Burton is planning on making a sequel to The Nightmare Before Christmas. I didn't see the film when it was released in theaters and enjoyed it when it was on TV, but do we really need a sequel? Wasn't Corpse Bride enough? That's right, it's considered to be the Dark Horse, excuse me, one of the few Dark Horses from the Burton Library; the second being Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. I can even add Sleepy Hollow to the mix but whatever. People are going to eat this film up.

I know that there are some people who are thinking to themselves: What's the story? So far, there haven't been any details. Plus, the fact that this came from the mouth of Pee-Wee Herman isn't really saying much. There has to be proof in writing or from Mr. Burton himself about this project. We already know Burton already has his wife, Christopher Lee, and one of his most overrated and overused stars Johnny Depp lined up to be a part of this cast, but what does anyone from the cast of the original film has to say about this? 'At least the production budget will be less than that of Tron: Legacy', that's what.

The sequel might be made on a $20-$30 million budget, give or take. Then again, I don't know if that will be enough. Why should I even be worried about this? I'm not working on this film. For the people who's against the idea, they're not working on this film either....if it's the real deal of course. If you want more proof, check out the link below.

UPDATE: December 31st, 2010, 1:26 AM: There WON'T, I repeat, won't be a sequel to The Nightmare Before Christmas. It's a relief to a lot of hardcore fans and to me since I had mentioned that the film would be made just to get more merchandise in Hot Topics all across the U.S. I think Paul Reubens should think about what to say before it becomes public news. The update can be found in the link below:

Moving away from this story, I want to inform everyone, whoever reads this blog, that I'm going to be a bit slow with getting some movie reviews up. It doesn't mean that I won't work on them, because I have, but it means that it'll take a while until this blog is updated. This will also be true when it comes to the new year depending on whatever I see. So far, I'm thinking of having something up for 'Sucker Punch', coming in March 2011, starring Emily Browning, Jamie Chung, and Vanessa Hudgens along with any film that catches my interest such as 'Thor', 'Green Lantern', and 'Cowboys and Aliens'.

I'll let everyone know about what's up on my Facebook and Twitter. You can also contact me on Skype but you'll have to ask me first.
