What Defines A Christmas Movie And What Films Classify

Ryan — Sun, 24 Dec 2017 20:00:09 +0000

When it comes to Christmas films, there is an adequate amount of subjectivity in regards to the which movies can be considered a holiday tradition. Movies like “Elf” or “A Christmas Story” are apparently influenced by the holiday while other films like “Die Hard” or “Gremlins” are constantly debated. So how is a film categorized as a Christmas movie?

Home Alone: Why Kevin’s Dad DEFINITELY Did NOT Pay For Their Paris Vacation

Ryan — Tue, 27 Dec 2016 06:42:31 +0000

There’s been a popular Home Alone meme going around questioning the financial status of Kevin’s father Peter McCallister and how he was able to afford such a large house in the Chicago suburbs and a family trip to Paris, France. Well as it turns out there is a fallacy in this meme as we should not be focusing on Kevin’s father but instead Kevin’s uncle Rob.

Eric’s Top 3 Emotional Christmas Specials

Eric — Sun, 27 Dec 2015 22:31:11 +0000

We all know the Chuck Jones' “How the Grinch Stole Christmas," or “The Charlie Brown Christmas,” or any of the million versions of “A Christmas Carol” specials that are loved by all for how they get us right in the feels, but what about the ones no one talks about? It's staggering to think about how many specials have been made for this holiday. Some are terrible and we rightly forget about them but then there are those that deserve some love but fell through the cracks. I had more to talk about but, couldn't unify them under a good theme that made sense for all of them so I took the ones I most wanted to talk about and figured out the common link of them. I'm fine with going for quality over quantity. Oh and SPOILERS, lot's of SPOILERS.

Review: ‘Krampus’ Lots Of Potential; Too Much Disappointment

Matt — Fri, 04 Dec 2015 17:57:48 +0000

Krampus had lots of potential to start off with, but the lackluster characters, cliché dialogue, and inconsistencies keep me from recommending you to go out and spend money to see. It tries to have fun with its PG-13 rating and dysfunctional family, but it all comes off like they were trying too hard, resulting in some disappointing dramatic and action sequences. There's genius somewhere in this film and this script, but overall I'd wait for it to premiere on HBO or another television station after its video release.
