It’s interesting that you like this move and not It’s a Wonderful Life. This movie is truly soulless. Harbour’s good in it though.

It isn't trying to be anything other than a ridiculous cartoon violence joke, from the title to the end credits. No one would mistake it for a message.

The message of It's a Wonderful Life, on the other hand, permeates the whole film and is disgustingly toxic: you should sublimate all of your own dreams, plans, and desires for the happiness of others, and if you don't love doing that, there is something wrong with you. For example, George wants to be an architect. He wants to create, to build, to push boundaries of what people think in a way that improves lives. He has dreamed this since he was a child, and worked to that goal, to achieve that dream. He takes the right classes, works hard, and gets into college to achieve that. On the eve of going off to follow his bliss, he gives it all up to support the happiness of his brother, who, throwing away years of planning, took another job on a whim. But George doesn't see the worth of his own happiness, only the happiness of others. And this goes on and on and on.

I have had many "people pleasers" in my life and heart. I have watched them follow this same formula, not putting any weight on what they want or need, only sacrificing for others. It is agonizing to see people lose their identity this way. And that is what the film is promoting as "wonderful." It is damaging, it is toxic, and it is a whole lot more "soulless" than a violent parody film of "what if Die Hard had Santa instead?"

Since you asked.

Did I ask though? I very specifically did not include you because your personally happy memory of seeing it with your daughter is not something I need or wish to debate. The fact that it is about stealing $300 million from people who still $300 million from the government says that it is a movie that at least at some point in its development was trying to say something and just ended up being bad at it, does not detract from your experience of the movie.

Similarly, your reaction to It’s a Wonderful Life is valid, but it’s a very specific and interpretation of the movie driven by your own experience. Which doesn’t make it wrong but makes it very personal. And is a thing I knew. When I chose not to tag you in the reply.

Bry’s opinions are just curmudgeonly.
 
I just word-searched "Santa" on Pornhub, but I'm not sure if I want to actually link any of the "movies". 🤷‍♂️
 
Day 3: A holiday film with snowmen

A 1982 British-made short film and symphonic poem, The Snowman is beautiful, wistful, and powerful, spinning a magical story with no need for dialogue. Based on the picture book of the same name, the original version opened with the book's author, Raymond Briggs, but the version I owned opened with David Bowie. Both are lovely and fit well with the story. This should be part of everyone's holiday season.

The Snowman, 1982

This is the closest the film has to dialog, a song by young Peter Auty.

Oh I'm glad this was picked for today after my preemptive strike yesterday.
