"...”Die Hard” is the perfect Christmas movie...for understanding how Americans view international politics."

I decided it's okay to add this to the the Xmas Movie list, thanks to the final scene. The opening scene still cracks me up every time.
It’s just ticked over to Giftmas day here in Oz.
Hans has fallen, I repeat, Hans has fallen!
“The Thing” (1982) is a xmas movie. Change my mind.

Had to watch my childhood fav #emmetotter Emmet Otter’s Jug Band Christmas. Never gets old. Their little feet when they walk kill me every time. #muppets #xmasmovie #xmas #movies #christmasmovies

Watching Die Hard because all Hans on deck. #xmasmovie
“Data, where are we?”
“It would appear that Q has placed us inside a standard narrative of Earth’s 21st Century.”
“Which one?”
“Well, Captain, it looks like we are inside a Hallmark Christmas movie, and we must play the role of the antagonist that wants to level the quaint small village to build a distribution center for unspecified merchandise.”

#xmasmovie Just watched Bernard And The Genie for the first time in about 28 years. I loved that film as a kid, but was worried it might be dated today. It's not. It's great. It really shines when it lets Lenny Henry do his thing. A missing link in Richard Curtis' career, I don't know why I can never find anyone else who remembers it.
“No, mother. There won’t be a wedding after all. Yes. She went back to her ridiculously picturesque hometown to help save the family farm. Yes, the background check didn’t show the property, but how I was to know it was her foster family? No, it was the single, never married large animal vet this time. What? Don’t lose hope, mom. I am sure the next one will take. Well, gotta go, I have a partner meeting in a few.”

Chuffed that our studies of #XmasMovie|s arrived in time for upcoming Glühwein-Xmas movie nights 🤶
The book is stuffed with insightful chapters on #BridgetJones by @annieteaperky , Drei Haselnüsse für Aschenbrödel by @RelevanteLiteraturwissenschaft and many more. I wrote about how It's a Wonderful Life and #Gremlins construct and deconstruct Xmas #sentimentality.
Gremlins might be my favourite Xmas film - what's yours?

“Spirited” has been watched.
I really liked it a lot.
Some notes:
• Enjoyed the twist on the story
• Liked the commentary on today’s society in one of the songs
• One of the songs reminded me of “Thank You Very Much” from the Scrooge movie
• The dancing reminded me of The Greatest Showman
I won’t say more, but if you have access to it, you definitely should watch it.

Finally managing to get a 4 year old and an 18 month old into a good sleep schedule so I can work through my large catalogue of #PS5 games... before the nightly #Xmasmovie binges begin!
Cool stuff my friends have made -- The trailer is out for the new #Aussie Christmas movie my friends at Every Cloud Productions have produced for #Stan. As an American in Oz, summer Christmas is still quite weird to me, but glad there are now Aussie Christmas movies to fit the season. #australia #filmmaking #xmasmovie
