What was the last movie you've seen?

[Michi]

Oh yes, Ack. I think you'd most definitely get a kick out of it.

Edit
It’s available on Amazon Prime, for those with a subscription.

*hint hint*

A few days ago, my wife and I watched Christmas Evil (1980). It is about a deranged man who dresses as Santa Claus and goes around both giving out presents and murdering a few people. It features light eye trauma, and Jon Waters called it the greatest Christmas movie of all time. Recommended?

Ah, yes. Also known as You Better Watch Out. I like that one ^

Last night, while wrapping more presents for my niblings, I rewatched A Diva's Christmas Carol.

In this 2000 made-for-TV retelling of the Dickens classic, an R&B artist named Ebony, formerly of a pop trio named Desire, is visited by the ghost of Marley Jacobs, former friend and bandmate, who warns of a forthcoming visit of three spirits, the last of which takes the form of an episode of Behind the Music.

My partner and I watched that new Christopher Nolan movie Tenet. From the movies he directed, I've seen Memento, The Dark Knight, and Dunkirk, so I wasn't sure what to expect but I ended up enjoying it. My only issue with the movie is that I felt like it's a bit long, I think about a half hour could've been cut.

It was also cool to see Denzel's son John David in a starring role. I think this will be his breakout performance, and we'll begin to see more of him in Hollywood action flicks.

When I thought about it, I saw a Tenet trailer before seeing Avengers: Endgame, which was one of the last movies I saw in the before times. Anyway, I think it's worth checking out if you have a chance.

Since last week, my wife and I have been watching made-for-TV Christmas movies on Amazon Prime. It’s our 12 Days of Shitty Christmas Movies marathon. So far, Christmas Cupcakes (2018) has been the best -it’s genuinely funny! - and A Christmas Princess (2019) has been the worst. And, by “worst,” I mean, the very best. We are still laughing at it’s unbelievable ineptitude. It’s almost as bad as Birdemic, and I really do think a lot of you would enjoy it. (We basically spent the film’s entire 88 minute runtime tearing into it. So much fun.)

We took a break tonight, though, and watched Gremlins with our children. A Christmas classic!

EDIT: We couldn’t resist. We fired up Christmas Town (2008). It f*cking sucks, and we are having a great time laying into it!

Another one of my favorite versions of A Christmas Carol.

Carol Kane is hilarious AF as the Ghost of Christmas Present.

The bitch hit me with a toaster!

A Christmas Princess looks glorious. I wanna marathon through a bunch of Hallmark Christmas films one day.

I'd say the best Christmas movie is The Shop Around the Corner. Ernst Lubitsch is the master in writing.

A Christmas Princess IS a glorious disaster-piece. The prince with an Australian accent; the queen who sounds like a cross between Marlon Brando and Scarlet O’Hara; the cheap computer-animated snow; the royal assistant whose suits are two sizes too large; the “royal banquet” hosted, during the day, with a buffet dinner in a Hampton Inn conference room and attended by a bunch of people who look like your elderly relatives dressed up for a wedding rehearsal; the romantic “date” at a crappy Christmas store; the stilted dialogue; the cliched plot...I love it!

Bittersweet because it'll be my one and only credit, but if you watch Soul and leave it on for the credits, you'll see my name after about 7 minutes and 20 seconds lol. So five stars for that.

The rest of the movie's pretty good too, I guess.
