Synopsis
From the delightfully wicked minds of Henry Selick (director of The Nightmare Before Christmas and Coraline) and Jordan Peele (Nope, Us, Get Out) comes the story of Kat (Lyric Ross), a troubled teen haunted by her past, who must confront her personal demons, Wendell & Wild (played by Keegan-Michael Key and Jordan Peele) to start a new life in her old hometown.
Already watched it… IT WAS SO GOOD!
Hey babes the movie “Wendell & Wild” is out on Netflix now, how about you support a film with a mostly black cast, a canonically trans character, stop-motion animation which is incredibly hard to do and rare to find, a unique style and more important than all of that: an original story and idea. It’s a very fun family film for older kids/ preteens but it did so many things that will have so many groups boycott it. So give it a watchy-watch and then yell about it on twitter or tiktok or whatever you cool people use. Do it for me! <3
My one hope after Wendell & Wild is that Henry Selick finally starts getting the credit he deserves. Tim Burton did not make Nightmare Before Christmas and he didn’t make Coraline or any of those other movies, that was all Henry and it’s about time people say his name instead
Henry Selick and Tim Burton on "The Nightmare Before Christmas"
The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993)
maybe saying goodbye to my most oldest and beloved fandom.
I don't want to feel alone on this one
but who's been a nightmare before christmas fan since the 90's ?
Yeah I'm a fan of a movie since I was 5 years old (1999)
And before I felt alone to be the only one in my french town to know it actually existed (and loved it).
But now I feel alone because the fandom has grew (I still view it possitivally don't worry ^^) but I can't seem to connect with the artistic and movie fans.
Maybe I should quit it, because I feel like a drop in the ocean which is this fandom since it has grew from zero to hero, before it was easy, it was what made me, well me! But I can’t just give up on my all time favorite childhood movie! especially the one where I dare to defy my parents otherprotection by watching it over and over non stop while they were like “Stop watching it! You’ll have nightmares!”.
And oh! For some, the tears trigger in a disney licence were or bambi’s mom or mufasa’s deaths (or both) , to me both of them got a stupid “meh!” from my young simple minded 5 years old self, to me it was when an army guy blow up jack in the sky and when the werewolf howled while sheding a tear that got my breaking point (and I wouldn’t stop crying until Jack got back up with his confidence).
But I can’t seems to connect with no one of the fandom with that because online I don’t know what curse is upon me, or in the street and I see someone nearby in the fandom and we cross eyes, they don’t stop by to talk a little (even a tiny bit about it) (of course street talk is the most of the stranger danger happening in all the minds I understand that don’t worry^^) but ...... it seems that I can’t have a connection with the fandom. I like the lone wolf (if not the grizabella) of the fandom. So I kinda felt a tiny weedy bit pissed to not have connection with the large growing fandom, I’m like an unknown veteran, the “thanks for giving me your fan love but now I’m popular, bye!” rejected.
It’s sad............
this movie is so fucking creepy jesus fuck
LETS PLAY A GAME. It’s called: Who directed it TIM BURTON or HENRY SELICK
We’ll start with the 2009 Laika film Coraline based on the novel by Neil Gaiman. Do you know who directed it? Burton or Selick?
Did you guess yet?
If you guessed Henry Selick, you would be correct. Tim Burton actually had absolutely nothing to do with Coraline at all in anyway ever. Reminder: Tim Burton has NOTHING to do with Coraline. At all. But that was an easy one. Let’s go to the Walt Disney Pictures adaptation of Roald Dahl’s novel, James and the Giant Peach next.
Think you got it? Are you sure? Better double check…
Oh, look. It’s Henry Selick again! Tim Burton actually interacted with this project, though only as a producer. Bet that was tricky… Next one! Let’s go to the Disney/Touchstone Pictures film Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas.
Have you guessed it correctly? Have you really?
Yep that’s right. Even Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas was directed by Henry Selick. Though Burton wrote the poem and created the characters in which Nightmare was based he didn’t have much interaction with the project beyond that. At the time he had already signed off to direct the film Batman Returns and did not want to be involved with the “painstakingly slow process of stop-motion animation.”
Looks like it was a trick quiz. But now you know Henry Selick, whom people rarely know of is responsible for many of the most well known stop-motion animated films. The more you know!

Can I tell yall something?
I HATE THE IDEA OF A SEQUEL TO CORALINE AND SOME OF YALL’s “THEORIES”
It does not need a sequel at all, a sequel would ruin the Coraline name, and yall wouldn’t be satisfied if it didn’t answer one of your stupid questions that was easily explained in the first movie.
Some of Y’all’s“theories” don’t make sense at all, where are you pulling that the beldam is the actual good mother in the movie, that she is Coraline real mother? Did you even watch the actual movie? Or did you just watch a bunch of cut up clips on YouTube and tiktok.
And in addition remember that Tim Burton didn’t do shit for this movie, and that it was all created by Henry Selick, appreciate Henry more, instead of that other dude.
Hello, I am Noha Al-Habil. My father was martyred in the 2014 war. In this war, my older brother was martyred and my younger brother was injured. I became responsible for a family of 5 people and I am 22 years old. My mother is a woman who suffers from chronic diseases and needs special attention and care, and my little sister. She has a heart condition and needs special treatment. My brother, who is currently injured, is paralyzed and needs to travel for an operation so he can walk normally. Our house was bombed and destroyed, and we are currently living in a tent, which is an environment not suitable for living. Please help me to save my family and get out of Gaza.
