Is it just me, or is there a new “collector’s edition” of The Nightmare Before Christmas released every year? I’ve done no research to back this up, but it seems like I get word of a new one about this time every year.

Members of the Screen Actors Guild (SAG) met at the Sportsmen’s Lodge in Studio City today. Leaders had one message for them: we’re still negotiating.
