Listen in as we think back on The Christmas Carol legacy, other holiday movies we love, and why Michael Caine is the coolest.

Movie Issues: Black Christmas

Happy Holidays!!! T’is the season once again here at Movie Issues HQ and we are just beginning to celebrate. We’re getting the lights out, the tree up, and the eggnog all liquored and ready to go! To start the season off we watched the 2006 remake of Black Christmas. This is a real piece of crap, what a terrible idea this movie was. Unlike the original from 1974, which is an amazing horror film, this is just one uninspiring film from to start to finish.  Like the gift of socks or a bad tie, you just want to leave this under the tree and hope it’s forgotten. So please download and join us as we try to get though this appalling movie.

Comic Issues #44 – Ride on Santa’s Sleigh

He’s making a list, he’s checkin’ it twice. He’s going to find out who’s naughty or nice.

That said, how does he do it in all just one night? The question takes on a new form, as our heroes try to determine what type of wizardry Jolly Old Saint Nick practices.

Does he utilize the latest in advanced technology, or is he just magically talented? We also asked you the listeners a very similar question: given the choice, would you prefer to have technology or magic? And last of all, we take a trip to the North Pole to separate the true Lore of Santa from the chaff.

Best Movies and TV for Christmas

Hey there guys! I hope this Christmas season is treating you well. I trust everyone is finding time to sit down with family and friends and enjoy some good food, drink, and some good movies. Just like with my Halloween movie and TV suggestions, I’m going to break down some awesome geeky Christmas movies and TV that should not be missed this holiday.

Of course everyone has their favorites, and they shouldn’t be missed either. “Christmas Story”, “ Nightmare Before Christmas” and “Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer” are always on some of the big ones this time of year, and they are all great.

But my family and I roll a little different. I hope some of these suggestions make it into your holiday this year.
