Monster House or Corpse Bride?

Corpse Bride.

Corpse Bride here too. Keep waiting on an announcement for Nightmare Before Christmas. Going to see the 3D version as soon as it comes out here.

I have seen them both and enjoy Monster House a lot better. Both look stunning but I liked Monster House movie a lot better (just my opinion)..

Mee Too

Not even close. Corpse Bride is brilliant. Superb animation. Superb characterization. And the music and sound effects are fantastic. While Monster House is OK, it looks amateurish compared to Corpse Bride.

Put me down for Monster House. Corpse Bride is a musical so I don't really care for it.

Corpse Bride....A must have

The Movie Itself: I prefer the Corpse Bride

Picture Quality: Corpse Bride is a much more impressive demo as Monster House has some intentional digital processing that subdues the picture. Also a factor for those of us that don't have constant height projectors, Corpse Bride is 1.78:1 and Monster House is 2.4:1.

+1 for Corpse Bride.

Monster House....

Both great movies; But I'd opt for Corpse Bride. Can't go wrong with Depp and Elfman.

I only wish The Nightmare Before Christmas was out on BD as well.

Corpse Bride

Monster House

Depends on your taste in movies.

Corpse Bride is more suitable for adults as there is no real horror in that movie, it's more of a neat halloween flick with a great ending. The minus here is that you've already seen it. The plus is that it is still suitable for kids, even if it has skeletons and zombies, the horror factor is still quite low.

Monster House, I actually do enjoy as much as Corpse Bride, but in a different way. Although teenagers might enjoy this movie, be warned that if you really think about it, this is a true horror movie once you get past the animation facade and think about what the story is really about. If this was acted with real people, it would be a pretty scary ghost story. This movie might scare younger kids very easily. So this movie is strange in that it has kids in it, yet it is not really suitable for kids. The biggest plus for you is you haven't seen it.

Elfman + Burton + Depp= duh

While I love Tim Burton (Edward Scissorhands and Nightmare before christmas are two of my favorite movies), Corpse Bride is my least favorite movies of his -- I thought it lacked the love the rest of his movies seem to have.

I thought Monster House was much better... I was actually quite surprised how much I liked it (bought it at a b1g1 sale a while back).

Movie wise I prefer Monster House... Picture wise the Corpse bride is better. Monster House is pretty good PQ wise though -- it has a fake grain on it, so it isn't nearly as clean as a lot of animation, but it still looks good.

ALL EQUAL CORPSE BRIDE.

MH is a great movie, but no where near as good as CB.

Visually - Corpse Bride
Sound - Moster House
More Enjoyable - Corpse Bride (plus a huge difference from DVD to HD)

Couldn't put it any better mysefl.

Wow, can't believe you'd even compare these two films.

Corpse Bride is a must own.

...I wouldn't buy Monster House even if it was only $1 and came with a free bowl of soup.

My kids (10, 11, and 12) all liked Monster House more than Corpse Bride.

Monster House!!!

No contest here. Monster house wasn't remotely scary and it lacked the kind of atmosphere that horror movies need to have. In fact I didn't like it on any level. The house in question wasn't even scary.

...Minister of Finance! LMAO!! Love that one my wife might not tho.

But yea, Corpse Bride is outstanding. I would get it first then Monster House which is also good.

I have both.

I own both on Blu but I would say...

Corpse Bride.
