...Burton's the Nightmare Before Christmas Every Burton film is Halloween scary and candy-cane sweet. So it's appropriate that the fevered imagineer (Beetlejuice, the Batman films, Edward Scissorhands) dreamed up this stop-motion fable about a Halloween ghoul who wants to play Santa Claus. Directed by Henry Selick, Nightmare is Disney's weirdest cartoon ever: chilly, rollicking, endlessly inventive. And it's animated by Danny Elfman's magical-spookical score.

...irrepressible Junie B. Jones, America's most famous first grader, has been on the New York Times children's bestsellers list for more than a year. Jingle Bells, Batman Smells! (P.S.

...Oprah acrobatics. Her Scientology dabbling. Their dueling summer films. After a two-month courtship with all the requisite A-lister ups and downs, TOM CRUISE, 42, proposed to Batman Begins starlet KATIE HOLMES, 26. To make it official, they held a joint press conference, which fortified romantics and skeptics alike. "It was early this morning at the Eiffel Tower, so I haven't slept at all," said Cruise, who has deflected speculation that the relationship is a publicity stunt. The future Mrs. Cruise the Third, who had posters of her fianc on her wall as a girl, simply blushed...
