Nightmare before Christmas an Halloween movie or Christmas movie


The nightmare before Christmas i often describled as a Halloween movie or an Christmas movie but personally i find it to be both or whatever that some people describle it as to be. 

It's a Tim Burton movie which it's a stop motion movie so what can you expected from his dark goth film that he does like with Batman (1989) and Batman Returns even his other films anyways. The film does have some halloween themes like it's colors in the film and the scenes of the movie is often feel like Halloween only set in Christmas well it came out in October 13 1993 for a limited release and later on the 29, 1993. Depending on how it's like i thnk it's scenes that makes it feel like a Halloween and Christmas. The opening of the movie This is Halloween song. What's this it's a christmas song Where jack enters a town and sees snow and christmas lights.

As the movie continue on and on, than when came to the ending and Jack as Santa Claus but re-deliver some presents to make things right with Santa Claus, the town makes toys for Christmas and Jack while as Santa and starts to ruin christmas. 


I Find the stop motion style to be cool and i do like Jack's design. But the opening had incredible visuals the scene with the bed where the monster is hiding with teeths give me some chills. There are scenes that feel like either Halloween or Christmas i don't have much to say but i find it an Dark Christmas movie in Halloween Season i can watch in October or December.

Dark

*Note this is just fiction* 

In the lonely streets of a neighborhood walking alone not realizing of what's happening around as you walk in the middle of the night and you would hear someone follow you, as you are doing so suddenly you think to turn back and see no one and continue onwards before trying to reach home. 

But elsewhere not away from the person walking away the watcher who sees the person down below making sure she's walking home safety and not attack from any muggers and someone carrying a knife to hurt her. 

The hooded figure covered in black while behind him is the moon as he is on top of a building. No one knows who he is some say it's not a man maybe a child somehow no one never ask perhaps none of the people around don't know of the dark hooded figure one day they will discover him. 

Tales of the hooded figure is that he once saved a child from certrain death and punch down some muggers in a dark alleyway saving a elder couple prevent a burgler of stealing jewelry and money. Once his actions were known across the neighborhood they think it's a ghost or a unknown figure maybe a victim of a tragic accident. They try to find the dark hooded figure in the neighborhood but some say he's in a building or train station alone no one never see his face as he always covers his face. 

Years go by and the figure alone gone, try to wonder who he was no one knows

The Spirts of the Tay Bridge Disaster

*Note this is just a story based on the disaster and fiction*  


On the 28 of December 1879 an passenger train on Edinburgh-Dundee Line a violent storm between 10-11 on the beaufort scale. The engine taken 5 passenger vans an a luggage van. The engine left and on it's way to the bridge little did anyone know the bridge would soon fall down. The bridge was designed by Sir Thomas Bouch but it was poorly designed and the bridge's collapse was cause by lattice piers cast iron columns and wrought iron cross-bracing.


After the bridge's collapse and it's rebuilt years would go by and but drivers and firemans refused to drive the engine that was recovered. One night around midnight a signalman alone was alone on duty patrol. Believe to be some time ago after the disaster and would hear voices and the sound of the engine coming by and hearing the sounds of the bridge come crashing down and the voices of the passengers screaming for their lives and the wave violent smashing. The signalman confused by all of this would tell his co-workers of the spirits tells him that the bridge possessed the spirts and maybe are to reach the other side but never have.

How Transformers Aligned Continuity was screw up from the start



In 2010 came upon Transformers Prime and later on Transformers Cybertron games such as War for Cybertron and Fall of Cybertron yet when the aligned continuity was name War and Fall of Cybertron were part of the timeline which cause a lot of confusion in the universe. Before than there would have been RID Rescue Bots and a bad tie in game for the fourth Transformers movie. 

Now I'm going to try to paraphrase some of the details on this blog post from TFWiki and this one here was hard to make cause of the changes made and researching of how their take of the Aligned Continuity was due to Clashing egos of creative teams' purpose plans continuity errors poor explanations of the characters and universes. 

This would happen when Aaron Archer and Rik Alvarez wanted it to be separated earlier than the rest of the multiverse and previous universes. Hasbro stated that the universe anything you know from past generations of the brand may or may not be factual in the new continuity. But according to Rik Alvarez, while High Moon Studios were on board with the idea, the Prime creators didn't want to be tied to previous material instead High Moon Studios wanted to retold of the G1 Cartoon maybe do a third and final game that sets around earth and had previously stated a desire to move away from the Binder of Revelation and do their own thing. Between HMS and Prime Creators this resulted of bad blood between the creators when Transformers Prime Ended in 2013 another game material was coming too which was a tie-in tie in video game that was promoting Age of Extinction, call Rise of the dark spark resulted of creative teams that even further the Aligned Universe to not go as plan, this conceit would be quietly dropped, later in 2015 The Complete AllSpark Almanac and Ask Vector Prime confirmed that Aligned occupied the "Uniend" universal cluster in the "normal" multiverse. Speaking of which that Sentinel Prime" from the novels and "Zeta Prime" from the War for Cybertron video game as the same guy, "Sentinel Zeta Prime yet despite the fact that Sentinel wasn't really named as Sentinel before in the games too only Zeta Prime. High Moon Studios would be laid off from Activision and their plan game was never made. 


Meanwhile Hasbro continued their take on the Aligned Continuity which was an ambitious take. Hasbro wanted IDW Publishing to do a New 52 Style reset on their current ongoing Transformers Continuity to have Prime and War for Cybertron games IDW were against that and had too much groundwork for their comic books. With changes Hasbro had plans for Transformers teaming up with GI Joe MASK and Candyland which was canceled and the creative team going to different directions Hasbro fail to explain of the confusion the reason for Haslab shutting down was due to Battleship released back in 2012 and bombing at the box office grossing of $303 million worldwide against it's $209-220 million. Prime's reason of cancellation was due to it's overbudget and Beast Hunters causing the creative to throw away their proposed Season 3 plan for a space pirate and set on Cybertron which have to restart for Season 3 and cause of Bad Blood Mutual misunderstandings and financial woes. 

 

Previous Tie-In Endeavors developed similar problems with Jagex's Tie in MMORPG feel apart due to team changes and Prime Ended the creators stated that it was no longer a direct prequel to Prime as it originally intended before the show's premiere maybe to explain the styles and how come they look different from their game counterparts maybe if High Moon Studios plan the third game as a direct continuation of the cybetron games and reimagine of the G1 Cartoon. Rescue bots was never planned to be part of the continuity before Sideswipe Bumblebee and Prime show up and Hasbro confirmed it, Alvarez had to rewrite the final draft of Transformers: Exiles that revolved around the search for the Star Saber, which was slated to appear in Prime the following year, the book features a haphazard final battle t instead referring to the artifacts Optimus had gathered as pieces of the "Cyber Caliber". Andrew Hall has confirmed that this lined up with what he'd heard from other people and that much of this is part of the big ball o' fun that comes from working for large corporations. A Prequel game to Prime call Transformers Universe developed by Jagex but was cancelled after years of trouble development and team changes after it's beta testing three years late and never got off the ground but it would have been a different tf game than being connected.



Following the end of the Prime show, and departure of Archer and Alvarex from Hasbro's Transformers Division future writers have abandoned the Binder of Revelation altogether, forging a radically different direction for the continuity timeline than originally intended and less pressure to draw directly from Binder of Revelation and cause of more freedom to introduce new characters but Robots in Disguise chose to disregard auxiliary works of fiction such as the War for Cybertron games in favor of a new narrative based entirely on continuing forward from the Prime cartoon. Most prominently, this led to the introduction of a Grimlock whose appearance and personality varied wildly from the Grimlock introduced in the video games, an irreconcilable discrepancy that carried over to other characters who reused names such as Sideswipe and Kickback. This change of narrative cause fans to be confused with Two Grimlocks and Two Sideswipe(s) that were wondering of the old ones too and even a decepticon dinobot and no mentions of Shockwaves ever making one too and this made the continuity as a less consistent universe. After RID 2015 Ended in 2017 new shows like Cyberverse Siege toyline with Cybertron Shows and many starts and stops before making a new one. Hasbro has made disastrous attempts to make a universe of their own like Marvel and DC had done with their own universes whether it be on Cartoons or Live Action or Video Games. Looking back at it now it makes feel rather not happy with Hasbro making these bad choices and decisions and not have a single experience member on either group to make sure their on the right track and focus on telling their own stories and maybe would have let High Moon Studios to make their own takes of the G1 Cartoon as a Video Game than their ambitious takes of it and causing a lot of continuity errors and so on and so fourth looks like they didn't thought this through.

What was High Moon Studio's Cancelled Transformers game

Since i written about how Hasbro completely screw things up with Transformers Aligned Continuity with bad decisions and choices with taking the cybertron games in the Aligned Continuity that never plan to be in cause High Moon Studios wanted to show a Reimagined of the G1 Cartoon and taken concepts from the g1 itself exploring that in War of Cybertron and Fall of Cybertron. If a Third game happen it would have reimagined of the G1 Cartoon and the final part of the FOC was when both the Autobots and Deceptions were rushing to get back home much like the cartoon show and later crash landing on Earth. Both games were developed by High Moon Studios that were involved with Infinity Ward Treyarch and Sledgehammer on Cod Games and due of their fail efforts of folding the g1 story and not closing the chapter, Had things come out differently and plan it all out for High Moon Studios their promise of a G1 Transformers game fail to our expectations. And cause of Hasbro's rush effort of sabotaging and making their plan yet Ambitious take continuity.

Yet that's not the case as i do plan to talk of more of it on the next post.

Halloween is coming

So i realized that Halloween is coming soon later today and i plan to perhaps talk about Halloween who knows maybe one of those movies that i plan to talk of or maybe the classic movies too. Or maybe Shows and Games too. As the season change than comes autumn season as we get ready for the coldness set the fireplaces get the firewood bring in some warn drinks and watch whatever entertainment that can entertain us all. Not sure of what i can talk about Halloween so who knows maybe some regular posts and that kind of stuff too. Or Maybe some Halloween Stories, Like a dark night in the streets of England. Halloween dance party before something very unexpected happen along the way, being stranded in the middle of the dark forest where the beast awakens and wants to hunt his meal. An hooded individual is to survived a werewolf in the woods, rescue a girl from a witch where she is held at a tower. Or maybe a spirit from the bridge that was a disaster taking some many lives from a story. An engine that now haunts the underground railway system was designed from an experiment fireless engine. 


These stories could come.
