the curmudgeonly movie lover’s unpleasant Advent calendar: December 10

All humbug, all the time, for just a click:

(Buy The Nightmare Before Christmas at Amazon.) (Read my review.)

Coooool!

But what's with the clicking? Or more to the point, "What's This" with the clicking?

What do you mean? Are you not clicking on the DVDs? That's the whole point, to see what's inside. Haven't you ever had an Advent calendar?

I've clicked on the DVDs from two different computers and each time all I get is a blank space in return. Is this supposed to be some symbolic commentary on the Christmas experience or are I doing something wrong?

And yes, I'm familiar with the concept of an Advent calendar--my being Catholic and all--but oddly enough, I rarely have had occasion to employ an interactive Advent calendar.

And I find it odd to hear you of all people using that type of terminology.

But, hey, I have a lot of similar contradictions in my life too...

You should be getting an image of the inside of a DVD jewel case with a quote from the movie. I can't imagine why you aren't getting it. Perhaps you don't have javascript enabled?

And I find it odd to hear you of all people using that type of terminology.

I like counting down the days to the pagan welcoming of the winter solstice.

"I've clicked on the DVDs from two different computers and each time all I get is a blank space in return."

it may be your browser... i also get the blank space but if you right-click on your mouse, you'll get a direction that says "show picture." click that and the image comes up.
