About this item
While The Nightmare Before Christmas, from the same filmmaking team, received an exhaustive special edition DVD, James and the Giant Peach gets shortchanged. There are only a couple dozen character drawings (compared to over 450 for Nightmare) , a music video, and a publicity-fluff featurette. Better is the excellent transfer that makes the images pop off the screen. Best of all, James continues the welcome trend of putting both DTS and Dolby Digital soundtracks on the same disc. --Doug Thomas
