Remember that bad ass contest we posted where B-D readers had a chance to create their own character from Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas and win some cool prizes? Well, two of B-D's very own regulars won second prize! Read on to see the creations and then compliment their beauty below. Nightmare will return to theaters in 3-D once again next October...
Thanks to all of you that participated in the fan art contest for Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas in Disney Digital 3-D. We were lucky enough to receive an overwhelming amount of amazing entries for the contest, proving that Nightmare fans are some of the most loyal and artistically talented movie lovers out there. The Nightmare Before Christmas filmmakers have selected the following first place winner and four second place winners for the contest. Thanks again to all of you Nightmare fans that submitted your original designs. Merry Christmas, and Happy Halloween!
1st Place -- The Tragic Couple
Forbidden love ends in tragedy, but not even death could stop a love like this! How did they die? Betrayal and poison, of course; but on the surface you might think a knife and a spider.
2nd Place -- Marianne (B-D Reader Whitney Saurer)
Marianne died when she was only sixteen years old. Marianne was a bright, lively, young woman, but a bit overly romantic. Alive, she fell deeply in love with a young man. In a passionate gesture, she offered her heart to him, only to have him not accept it and hand it back. In a deep state of melancholy, she tried to put her heart back where it belonged but it just wouldn't fit anymore. Without her heart or her love, she pined and wasted away. Now she walks about, toting her heart around on a ribbon tied around her waist in hopes that someday she can put it back.
2nd Place -- The Tinman
"I'll build a tinwoodsman" Dr. Finkelstein said, "to cut down the forest trees when they're all dead." But a gear soon got stuck. The machine ran amock, and it cut down poor Finkel instead.
2nd Place -- The Tooth Fairy
She goes bump in the night and picks up teeth because her own are so ugly. She has a wrench to help out those hard to lose teeth. Sometimes when she is in a bad mood she is known as the Root Canal Fairy.
