Leno special edition

The Chintastic 2-disc Special Edition of Leno is available on bluray and dvd and it's packed full of interesting special features.


Leno special features disc 1:
•DVD commentary by me and my brother.

•DVD Commentary by Jay (me in character as Jay Leno, it's kind of like "The King" commentary on the Bubba Ho-Tep DVD)

•Original theatrical trailer.

•Sing along track.

•Tonight Show Kids commercial

•Pop-Up Facts.



Leno special features disc 2:



•Behind the scenes documentaries.

•Deleted scenes.

•Outtakes.

•Storyboard to screen comparisons.

•Interactive Chinstar comic.

•Jay Leno playtime friend commercial.

•The Man Behind The Story.

•Roc's Workshop (a look inside the workshop of our special effects supervisor Rock Hemmerson)

•Little Jay and Friends short cartoons.

•Crazy character creation: A documentary about the makeup process I had to undergo to play Jay.

•Backstage Secrets.

•Me and my brother's tonight show appearance.

Those are all the dvd features. The dvd includes  never before seen musical numbers that weren't in the original version.   The bluray version also has these special features as well.

 In the film version of Leno the love song that plays in the background during the part where Jay and Mavis are having their romantic evening together is Take My Breath Away by Berlin.    This song is from the movie Top Gun and has been featured in commercials and tv shows including the trailer for Toy Story 3 that debuted last month (during the scene where Barbie meets Ken).

The reason we chose that song is because it is not only an awesome song but it is also powerful and a really lovely 80's song.     When we were picking a love song to use in that scene with Jay and Mavis we decided against using My Heart Will Go On from Titanic because these days it's been overdone -  and it's been played so many times it's become annoying.

Facts about Doizee

Here are some facts about Doizee.





Doizee facts:




  • Much like Josh Peck, Doizee used to be chubby. However, she's very self concious of her appearance so she decided to lose some weight, so she undertook liposuction. However, it turned out wrong and she came out rail thin.

  • Doizee has 4 kids, Doizee Jr, Doizee Jr 2, Countess, and Frankie.

  • She is married to Cid. A male ladybug who works in the movie buisness.

  • She has produced and starred in more than 10 Doizee Club films including 2 tv specials.

  • Unlike most ladyugs, Doizee eats flies instead of aphids- she also has a big appetite for almost anything. She'll eat almost anything. On ocassion she's been known to eat plates, bowls and homework. On occassion she will attempt to eat someone's hand.

  • Her favourite movie is The Fly by David Cronenberg. She actually liked seeing Jeff Goldlbum turn into a human/fly hybrid thing, as she thought that he would be edible. Unfortunately Doizee thought it was real and several weeks after that tried to eat him. Jeff Goldblum filled a restraining order against her.

  • She commuincates by squeeling or as she calls it.."skeeling". She'll "skeel' at just about anyone or anything.

  • She's good at many things but unfortunately cooking isn't one of them. The first accident ever caused by her lousy cooking was when she accidentally set the house on fire after attempting to make a mother's day breakfast for her mother. Her mother sadly passed away a couple of months later.

  • Her favourite Disney film is A Bug's Life. In fact, Francis the ladybug is her brother.

  • Her favourite colour is red.

  • She's not too bright unfortunately. She's a bit of a Ditz. But she's got some great ideas.

  • She is mostly famous for The Doizee Club tv show and movies. Most nobably for inventing the "Silly Dance".

  • Her first dramatic role was in the insect soap opera All My Offspring as the evil spoilt ladybug heiress.

  • Her husband Cid played the lead role in the all bug production of Robin Hood.

In case you're wondering why Doizee's mouth is open in this photo, she's yawning...she just woke up from a long nap.
