Stop-motion animator and director Henry Selick has had a pretty momentous past few months with two of his biggest movies, Coraline and The Nightmare Before Christmas, reaching major milestones. As the creator looks back on these films, he expresses what it means to him to have two movies that are so widely celebrated today, but says they probably won't be receiving sequels anytime soon.
"You know, it's fantastic to work very hard on something that kind of comes and goes and then turns out to have a longer life in it," Selick tells GamesRadar+ in an exclusive interview. "The films find new fans, especially in The Nightmare case that has made it to the children of original fans, second generation, it'll be a third generation before long. It's incredibly rewarding and just feels like, yeah, that worked out pretty nicely."
