In the film Victor was Given the Choice of a Boring Colorless Life In the land of the Living Merried to Victoria..Or a life In the Very much Lively and Colorfull Land of the Dead With The Corpse Bride Emily.
Which Bride were you Rooting for?
Which Life do you think Victor should have Chosen?
And are you understanding of Victor's Choice?
Give your opinion or What you would have done in a situation like this...

I was torn rooting between the two, could see either way. I truly believed he was best suited with The Corpse Bride, I think she would have made him happiest. She had a wonderful flare about her. Though she was dead, she was so much more alive than Victoria I believe the maggot/spider song to be true. But Victoria was just a sweet all around girl that didn't deserve to be with the Lord that was trying to kill... And dying to be with someone you haven't known or don't know very well is a tough choice to make especially when you aren't sure, and it didn't seem like he was, definitely torn. Of course I am understanding of Victor's choice, and I thought The Corpse was beautiful and understanding about it herself.

Totally rooting for Victoria! She was just aching to get out from under her parents, and went through quite a bit to try and help Victor. I adored their first scene together where he's playing the piano, and she comes down the stairs. They were absolutely meant for each other. As bad as I feel for Emily, as sweet and lovely as she is, I couldn't root for the dead woman. She needs a nice dead husband, lol.

Though I was kinda rooting for both, I have to go with CC on Victoria for the most part: I adored their first scene together where he's playing the piano, and she comes down the stairs. They were absolutely meant for each other. As bad as I feel for Emily, as sweet and lovely as she is, I couldn't root for the dead woman. She needs a nice dead husband, lol. That scene was awesome, and Emily was awesome, yet dead.

That scene really was sweet what with all that tender affection... but quiet. Too quiet... at least from my POV. And the Corpse Bride was completely my pick, from the beginning! Emily seemed so happy and at ease with Victor, and I was convinced that they were a match up until that very, very last wedding scene. After Victor and Victoria ended up together, I saw that they were the perfect match. They've both got nerve-issues after all. ;D

Yeah, that's my problem. I could root for a dead woman But I agree with what she said, that she couldn't take someone's dreams from them. I think Victor seemed more at ease with Victoria but had a liking for Emily as well.

Really..I wanted him to end up with Emily. I just liked her so much..and her and Victor seem so cute together. I think Victoria was a little too boring for Victor. She seemed kind of dull to me.
But yeh I suppose Victor truley loved Victoria..

I think Victoria was the perfect match, but who want's a perfect match anyway? Emily added a little spazz into Victor's life, if you know what I mean, and with her being sympathetic towards Victoria showed she was kind too, although I couldn't say Victoria was a bad choice. Either way, it's nice, but I liked Emily better

yeh..I know exactley what you mean HF..I think if Victor went with Emily he could have learned to be more comfortable wiht himself..and come out of his shell..and also by him marrying Victoria..now her dumb parents are gonna milk him for all hes worth..thats sad to think about...

Oh, I was totally rooting for Victoria! Emily was wonderful but she didn't suit poor, nervy Victor. I was really surprised when he agreed to marry Emily, although I put it down to the fact he had just heard Victoria was getting married and the shock was too much At the end, when Victor and Victoria were standing together....*happy sighs* How can claymation make me feel all warm and happy inside?

But yeh I suppose Victor truley loved Victoria.. I have to agree! I had a huge soft spot for Emily when he was going to marry her i felt sorry for him but as soon as he got back with Victoria i felt soooooooooo sorry for the dear Corpse Bride so hard one but i thnk he should have married the Corpse!

A very novel idea of the hereafter & one that warms the cockels of my heart certainly seemed a happier prospect than the one Victor had before him in real life , well relatively real.
