Richards Favorite Videos

I somehow missed this when it aired. I had thought Tiny Toons slipped into permanent reruns by 1993 when Nightmare was released and was no longer paying attention.

I’ve never played this game. It looks too awesome and overwhelming for me I’m afraid.

Another rendition:

My favorite Nightmare Before Christmas commercial and still the one that gives me those familiar tinglie feelings all over again. The unusual music (that never appears in the film) pumps you up, they do the exposed brain gag while saying it will “blow your mind”, you hear Jacks “I am the Pumpkin King” declaration, a world where night lasts forever? TAKE ME THERE NOW!

This particular clip is a UK version, but the same thing aired in the states.

It starts off… kind of promising (maybe?) but sort of colapses in the middle and gets saved only at the very end.

Oh ya, and its in Italian.

One of the rare times Disney marketed the movie as an innovation, but still doesn’t mention that it’s the first feature length stop motion film to be made. This was back when Disney trailers, especially on home video release, would promo upcoming events in a “let me tell you about this magical place” sort of way. This format slowly died to bring way for the now glossy and polished “hey! come buy a copy of this next thing we’re doing”.

Most of the music used here is from testing while doing demo’s of scene’s during filming and can be heard on the deleted storyboard and extended scenes on the special DVD

My second favorite commercial for the best movie ever made in the history of film.

You’re watching BKTV! It’s just like MTV but with less commercialized pandering and corporate whoring! From 1993
