Just came back from seeing The Corpse Bride (which I will no more call Tim Burton's The Corpse Bride than I'll call a 1988 film John Carpenter's They Live, no matter what the credits or IMDB say*).
It was quite fun. Nothing overly spectacular (or overly long -- we were out of there in 90 minutes, counting previews and credits), but it was good cheesy fun. Great voicework (including Jane Horrocks!), some fun jokes, and a lot less dumbed-down than most animated movies. Worth a matinee, at least.
*I also refuse to call Fiona Apple's second album --When the Pawn Hits The Conflict He Thinks Like a King and Then He Hits the Goodies Table and Eats a Cupcake and Wanders Off to go To The Bathroom and Then He Forgets What the Fucking Point of This Title Is -- by its full title, either.
