This is going to be an interesting LP for me. Nightmare before christmas was one of my favorite movies growing up, and I too even have all the lyrics ingrained into my brain. I had never played this game, thinking it would be an awful cash-in of the movie, but I'm seeing that may not be the case, because that boss battle was wonderful.

Good god. They managed to take a song I ALREADY thought was kinda annoying, and made it worse. That takes some talent in being awful at music.

Sally's song is one of my favorites from the movie but it REALLY doesn't fit as a boss theme. I mean, I guess thematically it works, but it's too wistful? I think that's the word I want.

To make a long story short, it's a major game mechanic that comes from a 20 second segment in the movie. To be fair, they probably didn't have much else to go on.

That song was almost as annoying to listen to as Oogies boys' for completely different reasons. That one was just annoying in general, but this one is nearly as bad because almost none of the lyrics fit properly with the music.

So, does the boss have less health, or are you just expected to do the same fight but minus the DDR segments that actually do good damage?

Ah. I see the game is continuing with it's theme of "Take a song I didn't even really like in the movie and then make it much, much worse" Kinda impressive how bad these get sometimes.

"Fa La La Wah-Ha" is kind of the best name that song could possibly be. I'm still just wondering what the next boss song could possibly be. We've gone through most of them, with the few remaining being less fitting for a boss than Sally's song. What's gonna happen?

I have to say, that was probably one of the better songs even. Well, partly because it IS only a minute long, but for the most part the words didn't feel like they were crammed in willy nilly (With a few exceptions. The beginning, and one of Jack's lines) And some of the rhymes I thought were clever for this game at least.

Oh god. That butchering of that song. Jesus. That's one of my favorites too and it almost hurt to hear it there. There are so many ways the song could flow better, and it doesn't flow in any way here.

I like how they pretty much ripped the going through the door scene directly from the movie. Just "Yeah. That's iconic. Do that. Exactly that. No, don't change it at all. That would be effort"

On the bright side, it's mid september, that means most retailers are starting to get halloween stuff in again, that means the jack hunt is back!

Wow. That final boss was...so drat anti-climatic. The first phase was so drat boring. It was either impossible to take damage, or impossible to give it. And then the second phase was...alright I guess? The song didn't sound too terrible. Plus I'm slightly surprised that they used the cut verse. I didn't expect them to actually take the time to do any sort of research.
