Zack and Miri and Disney

Ya know, one of my favourite things that I loved about watching the Disney TV show when I was a kid was when they'd do episodes about Disneyland...you know, have a whole show dedicated to one ride and they'd show you how it works and all that. Yeah...I miss those. The last one I remember was on in 1998 or so when Disney's Animal Kingdom first opened, and Disney had a big TV special where Drew Carey took us on a tour of the Animal Kingdom.

So, one of my favourite bonus features on the brand-new, 2-disc super-special edition of The Nightmare Before Christmas has to do with The Haunted Mansion. For those who don't care, every year at Disneyland, starting at around mid-October and going to the start of January, Disney completely redoes the Haunted Mansion in a Nightmare Before Christmas-theme, and they call the end result Haunted Mansion Holidays. They started doing it in 2001, and it's become one of Disneyland's most popular seasonal attractions.

So, the new Nightmare Before Christmas DVD has an extensive featurette all about Haunted Mansion Holidays, it's genesis, how they do the makeover, and stuff like that. It's really cool, and I wish Disney still did documentaries like it.


And now, we move onto my hero, Kevin Smith! His next movie, Zack and Miri Make a Porno, is less than 2 months away, and today, we finally get our first trailer!

Please, enjoy, the Zack and Miri trailer!

I'll warn you now, it's full of naughty language and NSFW.
