I'm a big fan of watching love actually around Christmas time, great film!

A recent addition to my list: Violent Night.

I've heard a lot of good things about Violent Night.

We did our annual rewatch of Home Alone 1 and 2. I don't know why this never occurred to me before, but the McAllister family, on top of being awful human beings, are VERY rich. Like, obnoxiously rich. It has bothered me since last week.

I don't think they are *all* awful, but Uncle Frank sure is.  

It's funny you mention that about their wealth, @Zaine, because this interview with Chris Columbus just came out, and I was reading it this morning: https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/home-alone-parents-jobs-chevy-chase-meeting-chris-columbus-1236093423/

Uncle Frank is definitely always out of line. If my siblings acted that way to my child, we would have a problem. They definitely wouldn't be staying in my house!

My wife and I were just discussing the potential jobs of the McCallisters. We landed on Kate being a fashion designer, and funnily enough we speculated, as the article touches on, that Peter might be involved in organized crime. Interesting that they also had they thought and strayed away from it. I also hadn't realized that he is the director of the new movie Nosferatu, which my wife and I are going to see this Saturday. What a difference in tone!

Wow! Amazing guess!

I enjoy this one, too.  I enjoy David Harbour.
