I want to wish everyone who celebrates a Happy Kwanzaa which lasts from today until Wednesday, Jan. 1. The celebration was inspired by the harvest festivals in Africa with the lighting of seven candles each day. One candle is black while another three are green and the other three are red. Thank you once againContinue reading “Happy Kwanzaa!”

‘Red One’ Isn’t So Fun
Red One is one of those movies that seemed better as a pitch idea for a studio executive rather than a movie. I equate to the atrociously bad The Santa Clause in which it all seemed like a good idea until they put it all together. Apparently, in this movie, Santa Claus and the HeadlessContinue reading “‘Red One’ Isn’t So Fun”
Please Help If You Can
I know the holidays can put a strain on your finances. But being sick can be worse. As someone whose family is undergoing chemo at this time, I always want to help others. I follow Cydney on social media and everyone needs help. So, if you can, please donate as she goes through this difficultContinue reading “Please Help If You Can”
Happy Hanukkah!
I want to wish each and everyone who celebrates a very Happy Hanukkah! As it seems anti-Semitic views have escalated in recent years, it’s a religion/faith that has been around for about 4,000 years and practiced by millions all over the world. Maybe we can learn a lesson this Christmas as the first night fallsContinue reading “Happy Hanukkah!”

The Awkward Darkness Of ‘The Life and Adventures Of Santa Claus’
All good things must come to an end sometimes. By the close of the 1970s, the Rankin/Bass Christmas holiday specials looked very atrocious in comparison to their earlier productions. In 1979, Rudolph and Frosty’s Christmas in July was released and it’s about as bad as it looks. Even at an hour and a half, it’sContinue reading “The Awkward Darkness Of ‘The Life and Adventures Of Santa Claus’”
A Golden Jubilee For ”Twas The Night Before Christmas’ At 50
Of all the Rankin/Bass Christmas specials, I think the 1974 ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas is one of their most underrated specials. While everyone likes Rudolph and Frosty and Ginger Santa and the Miser Brothers. The 25-minute special loosely inspired by Clement Clarke Moore’s A Visit from St. Nicholas is mostly centered around Junctionville, USA.Continue reading “A Golden Jubilee For ”Twas The Night Before Christmas’ At 50″
Merry Xmas, Motherf@$#ers! ‘Long Kiss Goodnight’ Explodes With A $h!tload Of Holiday Cheer
A movie like The Long Kiss Goodnight completes the unofficial decade-long trilogy of Christmas Action Thrillers that began with Lethal Weapon, unseasonably released in the spring of 1987 and continued with Die Hard in the summer of 1988. (Yeah, I know Die Hard 2 takes place on Christmas Eve too, but this is a farContinue reading “Merry Xmas, Motherf@$#ers! ‘Long Kiss Goodnight’ Explodes With A $h!tload Of Holiday Cheer”
Marlena Was Possessed 30 Years Ago
Just before Christmas weekend in 1994, viewers turned into The Days of Our Lives to watch their “stories” only to discover Marlena Evans (Deidre Hall) would actually be possessed by the Devil. What a festive way to begin the celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ! And I know some people can say that ChristmasContinue reading “Marlena Was Possessed 30 Years Ago”
