The Nightmare Before Christmas

My favorite movie around Christmas time is "The Nightmare before Christmas". It combines Halloween with Christmas. The movie starts off showing all these doorways in the form of trees to different holidays forest; Valentines Day, Saint Patrick's Day, Easter, Christmas, Thanksgiving, and finally Halloween which the camera proceeds to enter. I would love if they did a movie of all those holidays twisted with Halloween. At the beginning of the movie, after the trees, it plays a song. The song is called This is Halloween. I would have uploaded the song, but this site doesn't allow uploading songs like that for some reason. I have this song twice on my i-pod. I don't remember how the second copy got on my i-pod. I've seen a house that has all these lights on it and plays that song on a short range radio station. It was really cool. I wish I had videoed it with my phone and I would have upload it. In a way, that song and I go way back. At one point it is mentioned that there are only 364 days left till Halloween. (Actually there are 146 days till Halloween). That would be me. That's because all the best movies are on around Halloween. Although I did see "The Nightmare before Christmas" on the other day though, as I was skimming the TV guide. I actually ended up watched 5 minutes of it since there was nothing else on. In the song it mentions the moon a few times and, as it so happens, when I watched it in October of last year there was a big bright full moon. I'm sometimes surprised at how much light that moon can give off lighting up the whole outside. I'm sure sooner or later the full moon will be on Halloween, but it wasn't last year and it won't be this year either (I checked!).

Here is a picture I took of the moon. Unfortunately this picture the moon is half hidden, but the rest of the pictures I have were out of focus, so I used this one because it was clear.

When he's flying over Christmas Town, it's almost hard to believe that Jack got himself being shot at confused with them celebrating. Just saying. Though I imagine they wouldn't exactly be shooting at him in Halloween Town, right? Not that he can really die... I wonder how many years Jack had been doing this up to this year. As far as what is pulling him over Christmas Town, I find it funny to compare his dog with it's shiny red nose to Rudolph, which I believe is supposed to be comparable. I imagine the Oogie Boogie as one of the highest players in Halloween Town and he could easily defeat anyone he fought. However, in a fight, as Jack practically owns the town, he wins the  fight and manages to defeat the Oogie Boogie. Though, being in that specific town, I would seriously doubt he would be dead. I like the Oogie Boogie's dice, with the "snake eyes". All in all, I like to think it was a great movie. Anyone for a The Nightmare Before Christmas 2?
