Welcome to another episode of Mental Health Multiverse: A podcast where we mindfully break down your pop culture favs and discuss them through the lens of self care, mental health, and personal development.
This week on MHM we are talking about Oogie Boogie from The Nightmare Before Christmas which is one of HB’s favorite movies. LB has only seen the movie a couple of times and doesn’t get the appeal, which leads to a fun and interesting conversation breaking down the main antagonist of the film.
Questions, themes, and topics we touch on include:
Heather’s 4 page dissertation on the film as a whole
Prequel and Sequel video games that add more insight to the characters
The REAL director, Henry Selick, and why Tim Burton’s name was slapped on
Sally is a hero
A breakdown of what Oogie Boogie’s lair says about him
Oogie’s Myers Briggs personality type
What to do if you have an Oogie Boogie in your life
The alternate ending idea
& so much more!
