Metal Floss is the best. The best.
The Wonder Years was inspired by A Christmas Story. In fact, in one of the last few episodes, Peter Billingsley appeared as one of Kevin Arnold’s roommates.
As a kid we all watched horrible Christmas movies. But we were kids, so we were oblivious to their horribleness. Also, it was Christmastime and they were about Christmas presents, so we definitely didn’t care.
One of my favorite movies was The Christmas Toy. One day Dad came home, needed to record something on the VHS (“something” usually involved Remington Steele or Cheers), recorded over my program, and that was that.
Whilst browsing the Netflix the other night, there it was.
Katherine Heigl made the lowest grossing movie of all time, which grossed $30.00 it’s opening weekend. $10 of that was refunded.

Watch – if you haven’t already – their 2009 movie Under Great White Northern Lights.
If you like the Stripes, you’ll love them more. If you don’t care for the Stripes or find yourself indifferent (like me, before the film) there’s something intriguing about their lives that only the movie gives you insight into.
The Bishop’s Wife*
White Christmas*
Miracle on 34th Street (1947)
Santa Claus: The Movie
Prancer
*This was the first time I have watched either of these movies. Yes, that’s sad.
The Town Christmas Forgot
The Santa Suit
Santa Jr.
This preview (limited release this weekend, thank God) bothers me so much, I’ll just let Gawker tell you more:
This completely not insane and totally normal movie from not-at-all weird country Finland is about an earthquake that releases the real Santa Claus, a monster that punishes bad people. Then some Finnish people capture the Santa monster and try to sell it. So, just a regular movie for regular people in these regular times.
