Setting the record straight, was this a Tim Burton film or a Henry Selick film?

G.S.: It was quite literally both. Tim created the world and Henry brought it to life. Tim would have gone mad with the slowness of directing stop-motion animation.

Henry has more patient for that sort of process. It is very much Tim's creation and Henry did a magnificent job executing and contributing to Tim's original concept. S.F.: Here's the inevitable sequel question: will there be one?

G.S.: Not that I know about. There's been talk, of course. There's always talk about sequels when a film is a success.

I think it's all there. Why do another, really? I mean, there are so many projects for Tim to tackle.

I think Jack Skellington hijacking Thanksgiving would be a real turkey sorry, I couldn't help myself! But, seriously, it's like Beetlejuice as far as I'm concerned. Each is complete without additional chapters created just to rake in bucks.

S.F.: Are you saying you wouldn't do a sequel? GS: Heavens no, I'm not saying that! Laughter Should Tim want me to reprise ANY character I ... more.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
