13.11: Merry Christmas Movies!
Manage episode 390670046 series 3449158
Can you believe it’s the 20th anniversary of “Elf” and the 35th anniversary of “Die Hard”?? This week, we’re talking about those Christmas movies (the official homework), plus not just a few others. You know, viewer’s choice!
We all know and 100% agree that “Die Hard” is a Christmas movie. Duh. But we learned this year that it is also a Hanukkah movie! You can read an article on that here.
Two short gems that we watched this year are a couple of super-short pre-“South Park” bits made by Trey Parker and Matt Stone called “The Spirit of Christmas: Jesus vs Frosty” and “The Spirit of Christmas: Jesus vs Santa.” Oh, my lord, amazing!! You can watch them here:
