A Nightmare Before Lateralus?
Filed under: Animation, Music & Musicals, Disney, Fandom, Distribution, Family Films
Have you ever watched the Wizard of Oz while listening to Pink
Flyod's Dark Side of the Moon? Me neither, but everyone tells me
it's a special experience. Coming from a video editing background, I've come to
understand that things you didn't necessarily plan, tend to just
somehow work out when you add music to video. But some people think it's magic, and no matter what I say those people will believe what they
will. Today someone pointed me to the newest craze, a torrent copy of Tim Burton's A Nightmare Before Christmas synced up to Tool's Lateralus.. The uploader calls it "trippy" and says it's worth the download. I however cannot recommend that you download illegal copies of movies (Ha, take that MGM! I didn't recommend they download the illegal torrent linked in the news story! You can't get us with your Grokster-like tactics.) Instead, purchase the album on iTunes and blast the music while your year-old DVD copy of Tim Burton's animated masterpiece plays on the television.
And after that, please tell us how freaky it is, as we're a little low on the iTunes funds at the moment. That, and we don't care enough to waste an hour and a half of our lives. But we know you do ... right?

I just learned about it this weekend, and I tried it. It's absolutely amazing. To synchronize the music with the movie, start the CD right when "touchstone pictures" is fully illuminated in the opening credits. An easy way to check to make sure it syncs up is in the beginning of the movie, right when the ghosts pop up on the screen and begin singing, the vocals come in for the album. And it doesn't end there. There are just too many coincidences for this not to be real. I would highly recommend trying it.
