The best movie in the world, starring Jack and Sally the Ragdoll. Based on the poem by Tim Burton, which only actaully has 3 characters. (Jack, Santa, and Zero, Jack's ghost dog.)
My dearest friend,
if you don't mind
I'd like to join you by your side
Where we could gaze into the stars
and sit together, now and forever
for it is plain, as anyone can see,
We're simply meant to be
^ Jack and Sally's duet.

Get the man before his time mug.A more complete rule is:
"i" before "e" except
- after "c",
- in words where it sounds like long "a", or
- in words that are weird or foreign,
- and scientific words often do not follow the rules.
"i" goes before "e" in words like the following: believe, chief, field, niece, relief, sieve, and yield.
Some exceptions containing the long "a" are the usually-noted neighbor and weigh. Some more are: freight, vein, veil, geisha, sheik, and dreidel. The last three fall under the "foreign" clause even if you like to pronounce them with a long "e" sound.
The word weird is weird. 'nuff said.
The word foreign is, well, foreign. So are recent arrivals to the language, such as leisure and its ilk, from French*, and sheila, an Aussie slang word for "girl".
The word science doesn't follow the original "except after-c" rule. And caffeine, codeine, protein, and other words with the "-eine" or "-ein" ending and a long "e" sound are other scientific exceptions in the other direction.
* TheFreeDictionary notes that leisure comes from Middle English, from Norman French leisour, from Old French leisir meaning "to be permitted", from Latin licre. In terms of language, this is recent. At least, it is recent enough that the spelling has not changed to match the rule. Of course, you might be rightfully getting the impression that this rule is not much of a rule, given the hefty list of exceptions.
But then again, this is the English language. 'nuff said.

Get the i before e mug.A film that has been marketed to death at commercial alternative clothing stores such as Hottopic, The Alley, Spencer's, etc.
Clearly ruined by mallgawths.
Are Sally Lipgloss Mirrors for $10 necessary?
Do you really think that hoodie makes you cool? What about the rest of 98% of the other kids who shop at hottopic and are seen running around malls in them?! Are they cool too?
Films are meant to inspire not to be marketed to idiotic masses.
The Corpse Bride is another prime example.

Made his fortune raising tobacco and selling slaves.
