Championing Lowbrow Humor and Movies Since 1973
Something about this image pinged my pedantry. i was born in February of 1973, so i was there for December 1973. So, i Googled December 1973 and… HO! LIES! DECEPTION! This calendar is off by two days! Shame.
It’s Christmas in Piedmont, New Mexico. Wait a tick. No it’s not. The Andromeda Strain made the non-Christmas Christmas movie list this year because Eric Christmas plays “Senator Phillips from Vermont.”
This movie completely lost me. About halfway through, Hermione (Emma Watson) is leaving for holiday and tells Harry (Daniel Radcliffe) and Ron (Rupert Grint), “Happy Christmas”. What the hell does Happy Christmas mean?
i must’ve been watching the version that wasn’t translated into proper ’Murican English.
The lady sitting next to Holly (Bonnie Bedelia) is reading a magazine with an ad for Lethal Weapon, another Chistmas movie that isn’t a Christmas movie.
Holly (Bonnie Bedelia) tells Ellis (Hart Bochner), “Tell that to Takagi.” Ellis is befuddled by this because Takagi is dead.
Damnable Humbuggery
