This is one of the better commentaries I've heard for an animated film. Selick and the animators give good insights into the creation of the effects and the effort put into the animation - though they do tend to sound a little sorry for themselves at times. It would also have been nice to have heard from Tim Burton as to the origins of the characters and story, especially as the Special Edition DVD contains Burton's very first short film, "Vincent", which has a similarly dark theme. However, the commentary is informative and pretty entertaining overall.

I agree. It's all Tim Burton's idead for the film, I would also like to hear Danny Elfman's thought about the score and songs.
