  • The Polar Express
    Dec 24 2024

    Twenty years ago, Robert Zemeckis brought one of the most beloved Christmas books to the big screen via motion capture and Tom Hanks playing multiple characters. Adored by some and loathed by others, The Polar Express was a perfect choice for our Christmas episode. Guest Nathan Perry is back to express his belief in this film.

  • Jingle All the Way
    Dec 18 2024

    Jingle All the Way is a Christmas favorite for Millennials. It also curiously disliked by a lot of others. But why? Who wouldn't want to see Arnold Schwarzenegger square off against Sinbad in a battle for a Turbo-Man doll for the kid who played Anakin Skywalker? Guest Ryan Moran returns to the podcast to defend this film's honor.

  • Die Hard 2
    Dec 11 2024

    We choose to believe this is a Christmas movie. Die Hard 2 is sometimes seen as the black sheep of the original trilogy. It's easy to forget that it made twice as much money as the first one. Is it a worthy sequel or should it have been better? Guest Ben Hill returns to discuss.
