Rock it, man.

I liked the first one, although at this point I’ve seen it enough times that I think I’m good for a few Christmases. The second one had some high points - mainly Elizabeth Mitchell’s Mrs. Claus (who was kind of two-dimensional, but I was probably still crushing on her since Lost anyway) - but the “plastic Santa” and…

He looks fine despite the shaken nerves and rattled brain.

I’ve always loved the first F/X - the script is pretty contrived I suppose but it’s a great practical effects showcase, and both Brown and Dennehy are such naturalistic actors. A terrific little late-night movie - plus Jerry Orbach as the mob boss!

Fred Astaire already answered all this crap about Santa’s backstory.

Pickman’s Model was an H.P. Lovecraft short story previously adapted for Rod Serling’s Night Gallery. Curious to see that one.

Great Expect2tions

Well the Duffer Brothers were also quoted as saying she is “braindead and blind and all of her bones are broken”.

Next he’ll get serious and political: Supreme Court Clerks

That’s the first thing I thought of - he’s one of the least likely actors I could visualize playing Zeus.

Some right-wing public figure labels Ewan McGregor as “woke” in 5... 4... 3...

“Oh, and we may also squeeze in some football.”

Maybe he’s trying to put out the Ring of Fire.

What a shame. This was the first book - Stephen King or otherwise - that I literally could not put down during the last few chapters (I was in 8th grade I think), but my high hopes were dashed with the 1984 version. Like a lot of King adaptations, it sure sounds like it should be a no-brainer to make the source…
