Sooooooo is it a Christmas movie or a Halloween movie?
>>146900272It came out in the summer.
>>146900285So its a summer movie then?
>>146900272the easter bunny is in it so
>>146900272The story is told from the halloween town's POV, so it's a halloween movie.
>>146900272Halloween takes up about 5 minutes of the RuntimeChristmas doesnt actually occur, it only gets to Christmas Eve. Maybe the last minute is past midnight and Christmas proper.The majority of the film takes place during November and December so if anything it's a "Getting Ready for Christmas Movie"
>>146900272I split the difference and say it's a Thanksgiving movie
>>146900272Does Halloween town effect curses. I was wondering about the werewolf. Is he a werewolf 24/7 and also if he goes to Christmas town does he turn human?
>>146901421its always full moon in halloween town
>>146900319But the main topic is still Christmas. It's not about Halloween. It's a christmas movie.
>>146900272It is a movie.
>>146900272It's a versus movie. So both.
>>146900272Better question, was The Nightmare Before Christmas banned in YOUR household?
>>146902618I never watched it at home growing up. I only watched it in school for some odd reason.
>>146900272Take the average, it's either a Thanksgiving movie or a Memorial Day movie.
It's a Hanukkah movie
>>146900272fat chicks with black hair get tattoos of me
>>146903152what the deuce?
>>146900272yes
>>146900272 No!!
>>146900272Halloween. I know some people like to say it's both Christmas and Halloween. And yeah technically both holidays are featured. But the main focus is on the Halloween esthetic and themes, like horror.
>>146902292What does undead pussy taste like, necrobros?
It's a Thanksgiving movie.
>>146900272yes.
>>146900272It's not the Nightmare Before Halloween, ergo, Christmas.
>>146900272more of a Christmas movie than Die Hard is.
>>146905418So would that make The Hymn Before Halloween a Christmas movie?
It's a midlife crisis movie.
>>146900272I'd say it's a christmas movie. It's Halloween folks experiencing Christmas for the first time and not really understanding it. The plot is very heavily Christmas related and Halloween is always a side thing in the plot.
>>146904220>and themes, like horrorYou can do horror outside of Halloween though. There are christmas horror movies that most people wouldn't consider Halloween movies.
>>146900272it's a Tim Burton move, it's its own thing
>>146904097oh
>>146900272What the fuck kind of snowflake stays intact when placed between one's fingers?
>>146900272The movie centers around a bunch of monsters discovering and trying to celebrate Christmas, so it makes more sense to watch during Christmas than any other time of year.
>>146906267*its it's own thing
>>146900272
>>146900285Correction: It's a Halloween movie because Disney moved it up to avoid its box office from being cannibalized by Hocus Pocus.>>146907048He's a skeleman who doesn't generate body heat.
>>146900272Sad that none of the spin-offs opened the other holiday doors
>>146900272If you can't take Christmas out of the story without the story falling apart then it's a Christmas movie.Which means Die Hard, Home Alone, Jingle All the Way and It's a Wonderful Life are NOT Christmas movies.
>>146900289That does make sense, it's like a hype up for the holidays at the other ever of the year while also not really being appropriate for either of them.
>>146906208Such as? I would consider things like Black Christmas to be Halloween movies.
>>146908658>>146909267I disagree. Though, Is say Die Hard was never a Christmas movie that was just something that people who don't like Christmas used to say because they hate Christmas.
>>146908658I'll give you the other three, but JAtW without Christmas requires NYC to collapse and be replaced with a toy-based society.
>>146900272It's both,OCT 31 == DEC 25
>>146909498no
>>146900326this is the correct answer. Straight from the beginning the movie's concept is >Halloween just ended. Now what?
>>146900285lol thats wild
>>146908462bullshit, you can't have it both ways little girl
>>146908552His skelly body would make for a sound explanation actually

>>146913257a classic
>>146900272its an experience
>>146900272>Tim BurtonIt's a bad movie. The sooner we all accept that immutable fact, the quicker we can move along to better things.
>>146900272It's everything
>>146900272both, are you stupid? mostly halloween though, at least aesthetic wise
>>146900272Its actually a thanksgiving movie
>>146915282Bait used to be believable.
>>146908658While the premise of "Kid gets left behind by family going on vacation" could easily be shifted to summer or something, you lose a lot of Home Alone's themes and traps taking Christmas out of the equation.
>>146909313Black christmas is a christmas movie
>>146906267>it's a Tim Burton movie WRONG
>>146900272It doesn't take place on either of the two holidays
>>146919665it doesnt?
>>146920306No
