Speaker 3 (00:07):
We missed you guys
last week.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
Yeah, we did.
We were unorganized, and nowwe're back.
Speaker 3 (00:14):
We had a wild like I
was out of town and then it was
my birthday weekend and thenMeredith was out of town and
you're like you know what we'regoing to have to leave people
hanging with no notice for aweek.
So thank you, guys, for selfcare.
Yes, self care queen, like theshirt, oh my gosh, the shirt
(00:36):
that we got from Walmart.
Remember what did that say Selfcare club, not queen Self care
club.
But then we like wore them fora self care weekend, me,
meredith, and our friend Ben,and we didn't watch them first.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
Two out of three of
us broke out and rashes all over
our backs from the chemicals wethink on the shirts on the self
care shirts, which was didn't.
I was the one that didn't breakout and I don't know what that
says about my body, that it'salready accustomed to Walmart
chemicals, or I don't know whatthat was about.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
Ben and I's backs
were like covered in itchy red
bumps for days, and we didn'teven tell each other about it
until later.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
Man good time Good
times, good times.
Speaker 3 (01:22):
Okay, I wanted to
open really fast.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
Oh.
Speaker 3 (01:26):
Before we jump into
the awful kittens of Christmas.
Speaker 2 (01:31):
Oh Mark movie yes.
Speaker 3 (01:33):
I saw something on
Instagram today.
I think I might have alreadysent it to you which I should
have waited but I was worriedyou'd see it Was the little kid
that was singing a Christmassong, really like Macy's or
something.
No, Wait, I don't think I sentthis to you.
Speaker 2 (01:49):
Oh, okay.
Speaker 3 (01:50):
Yay, okay, did you
see that there is a gorilla?
Speaker 2 (01:57):
You did send this to
me.
Oh, shoot and I we do need todiscuss this.
Okay, give some tell, describeit.
Speaker 3 (02:04):
Okay, so there's a
viral gorilla who is apparently
attractive at a zoo in Japan andapparently it's like increasing
female attendance at a zoo.
Speaker 2 (02:20):
Cause he's so
handsome.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
His name is oh gosh,
wait, I gotta find what his name
is Shabani.
He's a global sensation.
He apparently like gives asmolder.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
They said.
They said he's like the gorillaGeorge Clooney.
Speaker 3 (02:38):
Yeah, and I'm like,
okay, our whole Johnny theory
from sing to yeah, isn't asweird, feels, validated it feels
I feel validated.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (02:51):
Not that I'm going to
go to a zoo.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
I feel weirded out.
Speaker 3 (02:54):
Well, yeah, obviously
I'm not going to be attracted
to an actual gorilla, okay, butI'm like, okay, the fact that I
thought a cartoon one was hotdoesn't feel that far off.
Yeah, oh yeah.
For sure Johnny's hotter thanShabani.
Still, I mean, there's a Johnnycan play the piano.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
There's more than one
hot cartoon animal For sure.
Like I think that's less weirdthan like a hot actual animal,
because they're animated bypeople and they're like
expressions or are, like,designed and created after human
expression.
So it like makes sense thatthey read like humans.
Speaker 3 (03:32):
Shabani apparently
has human expression on his own.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
It's, but the that's
not his fault.
I'm not blaming him, but thevictim blaming him.
I'm not blaming Shabani, butthey had to put up signs around
the zoo I did not watch thewhole.
Thing.
No, I just saw and I mean no,they had to put up signs around
his exhibit that said like donot yell at him because
(03:57):
apparently girls would go up tohis cage and be like Shabani,
look at me.
Speaker 3 (04:02):
Ew, also this poor
gorilla is just living his life
at the zoo.
He doesn't want any of y'all.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
I know, and so they
had to like, they've had to like
.
Do some take some measures tolike lower the like attraction
at that zoo?
It's just a joke though, Likeour girls just like eh and take
pictures with the hot gorilla,but they also apparently he has
made it into like you can goaround town and his face is on
(04:32):
like posters and stuff liketeeny bopper posters.
Speaker 1 (04:35):
Wait, wait, wait.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
You got to watch the
whole video, girl.
You sent that to me.
Speaker 3 (04:39):
He's on teeny bobber.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
They've got his head
like his portrait with like
hearts and like it looks like helooks like he's like a boy,
little like singer.
Speaker 3 (04:49):
Like a Justin Bieber.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
Yeah, but it's a
gorilla, it's a gorilla, that
actually exists.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
It weirds me out.
It's very weird yeah that's odd.
Mm-hmm.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
What is this?
It must be.
I think it must be like forthat, the awe factor, you know.
Speaker 3 (05:02):
Yeah, and I'm like
think about how lions used to be
portrayed at the zoo.
Not in like a way of likegetting too into it, but not in
a way that people thought thatthey were hot.
But I feel like everyone like acelebrity.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
They're like I'm
thinking about the gas car.
This is not real life.
Speaker 3 (05:25):
But, like also the
otters at our zoo, everyone
knows that their sisters,everyone is obsessed with them
because they're sisters.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
There's a difference
between a narrative and like
like going through theattraction because you're
attracted, because we thinkthey're hot.
Yeah, no one's going to want tosee the hot otter sisters at
the zoo.
Speaker 3 (05:45):
And guess what boys?
They're sisters.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
Oh my gosh, oh fun
times, but yeah, worth the watch
.
We should repost that on ourInstagram.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
Are like honestly
blossoming and so well managed
Instagram it's just popping offFor those of you that are still
around.
Thank you for sticking with it,because we're both clearly
really good at social media.
I know.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
I just hate that it
can't just be one medium.
I'm like I just want to talkinto a microphone.
I don't want to do the otherthing too.
Speaker 3 (06:22):
I mean, that's what
we were talking about with
Brooke, about how she was justlike when, before we started
recording with Brooke, when wehad her on our show.
And she was just saying likethe content.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (06:34):
Really I don't know.
I go through phases of like,okay, let's produce some content
.
And then like I just don't wantto do any of it yeah, yeah.
So if we're in a phase wherewe're just sharing other
people's shit, bear with us, andthat might all be all it ever
is, anyway.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
So glad you're here,
we are in our sixth month of
podcast recording and over 20episodes, and for our second to
last episode of 2023, we aregoing to be chronic, not
chronicling.
We are going to be reviewingand discussing the film the
cinematic masterpiece the ninekittens of Christmas.
(07:23):
We hope you guys watched it.
If you didn't, let's get abrief synopsis.
Okay, would you like to give it, or me, or are you going to
read it?
Speaker 3 (07:34):
Oh, I was going to,
but you got it off the top of
your head.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
I mean I can, I mean
there's not much to sum up.
Speaker 3 (07:39):
Okay, you just go
ahead Okay.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
The nine kittens of
Christmas is about a person.
A vet in Miami goes home to hertown in Bend, colorado, oregon.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
Bend Oregon.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
Bend Oregon.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
That's right.
St strategy.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
She is in love.
Her partner does not come withher.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
Her partner is a boy.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
Her partner is really
fine.
He's a very seriousveterinarian.
He's all about the business.
He cannot come home with her.
She brings her cat Duchess withher.
Speaker 3 (08:14):
She and they mention
that they're partners.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
Yes, they're dating,
oh, they're dating, and they
share a business together, whichis a bad idea.
So she brings Dutchess with her.
Dutchess is her cat Uponarrival.
Everyone is talking about herlast cat who died queenie, who
died four years ago, and she'stalking about this cat as if it
was her child.
Speaker 3 (08:38):
The thing is, it's
like we get it.
We've all got animals.
We love our animals.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
But the thing is it
would be one thing if it was
just her talking about the catin this way.
It's like I can't believe it'sbeen four years.
I still want over it.
But like every single personshe comes into contact with is
like we loved queenie.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
How you holding up
after queenie died four years
and four months ago.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
Yeah, so that's the
plot of the movie.
Speaker 3 (09:07):
It's like because,
like our parents had a Chihuahua
that we all still talk about.
But it would be weird if, like,anyone else, was talking about
it outside of our family, right.
I don't know, maybe not he wasa legend, I don't know, probably
people if people are talkingabout him, they're probably
talking shit about him becausehe smelled so bad.
That's true.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
Okay, so she shows up
.
The thing is, this whole movie,the plot is barely there, but
they do not let a second go bywithout you reminding us that
this movie is about cats.
Speaker 3 (09:37):
Yes, so the entire
first scene is like a cat, just
like running around a fire house.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
What was his name?
Again Ambrose.
Speaker 3 (09:46):
Ambrose, how could
you forget?
They say it like not kidding 12times in the first three
minutes.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
Yeah.
And the cat's like meow, meow,like it just so, okay, I feel
like, okay, I'm trying to wrapup the synopsis.
So her ex-boyfriend's afirefighter.
She let like we don't know whythey broke up, but she's like
very tender also about thatbreakup.
He.
Speaker 3 (10:12):
At this point, we
don't know why they broke up.
Speaker 2 (10:14):
Yes, she's home
visiting family.
He's never left.
He's supposed to be going on avacation for Christmas and she's
like her sister's, like don'tworry, he's on vacation.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
He goes on a ski trip
every year.
Speaker 2 (10:27):
Or you won't see him
and she's like phew.
And then they see each otherand it's like the sparks are
still there.
He's about to leave for a skitrip and then he finds nine cats
, nine kittens in a box, droppedon the stoop of the fire
department.
And he drops fucking everythingfor these cats.
He doesn't go on a ski trip.
Speaker 3 (10:48):
He literally doesn't
go on his ski trip because he is
so stressed about this catsituation.
The nine kittens, the ninekittens.
Speaker 2 (10:57):
Of Christmas, yeah.
So he's like oh my gosh, Igotta bring him to a vet.
Oh blah, I gotta get the shots,blah blah.
Speaker 3 (11:04):
he's walking down the
road and he's like he runs into
the ex-girlfriend again.
Speaker 2 (11:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (11:11):
And let me just say,
the town is just sprinkled with
fakes now.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
Which is actually
like spider webs from Halloween
bundled up into fake snow.
That's definitely the materialit was.
Speaker 3 (11:23):
Yes.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
Like the plastic-y
spider webs.
Yes, it was bad, it'severywhere.
Speaker 3 (11:30):
They're like running
to each other on the sidewalk
and he's like I don't know whatI'm gonna do.
Our only vet in town retiredand this is where it begins or I
guess it began before this, butthis is where you start to
realize the trend that she isgoing to tell you Every chance
she can get that she is a vet.
(11:53):
She's a vet.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
There are multiple
monologues about how she's a vet
.
Speaker 3 (11:57):
Yes.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
That's all we know
about her.
Speaker 3 (12:00):
Do you remember?
She's a vet and she's a deadmom.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
I do not know her
name.
Speaker 3 (12:03):
She's a dead mom.
Oh yeah, yes, both the parentsdied.
Because the freaking CharmBracelet and there's an advent
calendar with the CharmBracelets.
Speaker 2 (12:11):
I mean it's just,
it's really bad.
And she's like I'm a vet.
I like, hello, look at me, I'ma vet.
And he's like oh yeah.
And then they're like okay, Iguess together we will take,
we'll like find homes for allthese kittens, and so then the
whole movie is them findinghomes for all these kittens.
Speaker 3 (12:28):
That's the entire
movie.
Oh, but then there's the sidestory of the dead mom's advent
calendar, charm Bracelet.
And then there's the other sidestory of the fire chief
retiring and they are rebuildinghim a fire truck, and then
there's and the sexual tensionbetween him and his wife is like
hotter than anything I've everseen on it's way more chemistry
(12:50):
than the main characters.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
Yeah, I mean it was
like a little too much for
Hallmark Channel it was, I thinkhe says three times like give
me a kiss.
Yeah, and like a he's like I'mgonna retire, so we can just
like he was like really tryingto Just give me a kiss.
Give me a kiss.
Speaker 1 (13:08):
Oh my gosh.
Speaker 3 (13:10):
But she's really mean
, I was gonna say she is a
downright bitch, she is she isso mean, the whole movie, and I
know you shouldn't say thatabout people, but she, I could
not be her friend.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
She's so fucking mean
, I know.
Speaker 3 (13:27):
Everything her sister
says she's like well, I wasn't
really like planning on doingthat or like anything.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
the boy says what do
you think they were going for
when they wrote her character?
Speaker 3 (13:37):
I think like she's a
serious she's supposed to look
like she knows what she wantsand she's serious because she's
a vet, but like she really isjust mean, okay, there's this
one line Also not to downplayvets.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
But like she acts,
like she is, like she's like I'm
just so tired and like my job,my job, my job.
And it's like, girl, don't youwork nine to five.
Like she acts, like it is justlike the hardest thing ever to
like run a vet clinic.
Speaker 3 (14:06):
Yeah, I don't know I
mean-.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
Like you'd think she
was working like night shifts at
the emergency room.
Speaker 3 (14:12):
I know you would
think she's working night shifts
.
That by the way that she acts,I mean.
I'm sure her job is hard.
I considered being a vet forthree seconds.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
Did you?
Speaker 3 (14:22):
One, not serious.
I considered so many things andI literally thought I am not up
for euthanasia.
Oh yeah, I can't be doing thatshit, and I also can't be having
dogs pooping all over the placeand biting me when I try to
clean their teeth.
Speaker 2 (14:39):
I'd imagine most pets
are like not the pets you want
to be spending your day with.
Speaker 3 (14:43):
Jay worked at a dog
boarding place one time and we
went in there the next morning.
He had morning duty on aweekend, so you have to like go
in there, let all the dogs outthey have to get playtime and
then you like clean all theirkennels.
One of the old dogs had to havehorrible diarrhea and Jay and I
had drank so much the night.
(15:05):
Oh, no, and we were so hungovercleaning up dog diarrhea.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
Oh, Caroline.
Speaker 3 (15:12):
I was a really sweet
wife, that I was helping him do
that because that was his job.
I was not getting paid for thatshit, I just happened to be
along for the ride and I think Iknew before that.
But that confirmed yeah, Iwasn't meant to be mad, so maybe
she is really tired, so she istired.
She's doing a lot.
It's a hard job.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
Okay, I'm sorry.
Speaker 3 (15:31):
She's doing a lot,
but she doesn't have to be so
mean yeah okay, yeah.
Speaker 2 (15:34):
Back to the mean.
What was the part?
Okay, okay, yeah.
Speaker 3 (15:38):
The fire chief says
they show them a picture of the
cats because they're like tryingto re-home the cats, and the
wife is like, oh, look, how cutethey are.
And the fire chief is like,yeah, but anything looks cute in
a wicker basket.
And the girl goes actually no,they don't.
That's actually not true, butoh yeah, that's what she says
(15:59):
that's actually not true, andthen it just ends that's when we
realized she was a bitch, yeah.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
And then the whole
rest of the movie and damn, she
really is.
Speaker 3 (16:08):
So that was fun.
It's such a bummer and the guys.
Speaker 2 (16:12):
The whole time we
were watching were like dude,
you don't want this.
Do you want this?
Like, don't fight for this girl.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
She's mean.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
She's mean, she's
like the main character.
Speaker 3 (16:23):
She was not.
There was negative amounts ofchemistry.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
Yeah, I don't know
how she booked that role.
Oh my gosh.
Speaker 3 (16:28):
And then at the end,
he proposed it.
Speaker 1 (16:31):
Which was like not
necessary, not necessary.
Speaker 3 (16:35):
Like they barely
acted like they liked each other
.
Speaker 2 (16:38):
He asked her if she
wanted to adopt the last cat
with him, and then he proposedit was like no, we could have
just ended the movie with youguys adopting the cat.
Speaker 3 (16:48):
We did not need to
see y'all's future unfold.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
I don't think it's
gonna be good.
She's very mean to him.
Speaker 3 (16:55):
Yeah, I don't.
It's not gonna be a happymarriage.
They've got now three catsAmbrose oh my gosh.
We forgot to mention the factthat at the end, all of a sudden
, the cats have personalitiesthey like didn't before.
Speaker 2 (17:10):
Wait, what are you
talking about?
Speaker 3 (17:12):
Oh my gosh.
Yes, she's like crying in herbed and her cat throws her phone
at her and is like call himBasically the cat doesn't say
that, but the cat throws thephone.
Yeah, you see the cat, and thenso she calls him and then, all
of a sudden, his cat, ambrose,answers the phone for him and,
(17:34):
like throughout the whole movie,you don't see them do anything
like that.
Why wasn't there a side storywith the cats?
I don't know, because you wereMeredith said like at the last
10 minutes.
She's like I'm making a betright now.
It's gonna end with their twocats snuggling with each other.
And there was none of them.
We don't see the broken familymend at all.
Speaker 2 (17:56):
They don't they were
broken family.
No, they come from two brokenfamilies and the cats would
become step siblings, it doesn'teven happen.
Man, that was a bad one.
Speaker 3 (18:07):
That I like.
I could have rewritten thatmovie in five different ways.
That would have been betterthan what it was.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
That was the first
movie, that Paul Martin movie
that Keith had watched all theway through and he was like gosh
, are they all this bad?
And I was like no, no, no, no.
And I was like I guess theykind of all are.
Speaker 3 (18:23):
We started one that
Meredith.
We forgot about it and I waslike, mayor, this is about on
par with the puppeteer moviethat we watched.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
Forgot about that one
completely.
Speaker 3 (18:32):
We couldn't finish it
.
Speaker 2 (18:33):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (18:34):
We got 20 minutes in
and homegirls sobbing over her
missed puppeteer opportunity.
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (18:41):
Yeah, that one I wish
I could remember what it was
called.
I know A puppet for ChristmasProbably, if you could rewrite
the cat movie to be better.
Speaker 3 (18:54):
What would you have
done?
I don't know, you go first,first of all, I would have had
way more cat food.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
There were a lot of
cat bleep b-roll, but I just
want to see an airbud.
But cats at Christmas.
I want us to the mouth moving.
Speaker 3 (19:08):
Yes, me too.
Speaker 2 (19:09):
Yeah, I don't.
Speaker 3 (19:11):
I was going to say,
the thing I would have changed
was that it would be aboutQueenie and Ambrose instead of
boring ass, bitch and homeboy.
Speaker 2 (19:20):
Yeah, queenie and
Ambrose are breeding cats to go
on the black market.
They're like they're likecriminals overpopulating the
small town with kittens.
Speaker 3 (19:32):
And then Santa has to
give everyone a kitten for
Christmas because there's somany, yeah oh my gosh.
Speaker 2 (19:38):
And actually so their
plot.
It turns out to be a happyChristmas story, because they're
trying to like take over theworld with kittens, but then
Santa's like making all thesekids really happy.
Speaker 3 (19:46):
Yes, Then they're
like wait, we're like we all
want to do this for good and setit for bad.
Yeah, so they just keep, sothey team up with Santa and they
move to the North Pole and theybecome the kitten department
for kids that want kittens forChristmas.
Speaker 2 (20:06):
Yeah, it's beautiful.
Yeah, already better.
I would watch that 10 timesover than nine kittens for
Christmas.
Speaker 3 (20:15):
Also, why nine?
Speaker 2 (20:17):
They were all named
after a reindeer.
I know it should have been 12.
Yeah, there was a lot there wasalso one single line where she
was like there's nothing hotterthan a cat when a oh my, she's
like trying to sell that cat,like trying to get this guy to
adopt a cat.
Speaker 3 (20:36):
There's nothing
hotter than a man holding a cat.
Stroking a cat, unless it's akitten.
Ooh, which is so sexual.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
Oh my God.
Speaker 3 (20:48):
I didn't really think
about it being sexual?
Yes, I thought she was justtrying to be like clever.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (20:55):
And then he makes a
line about some kind of like I
don't have to pay for atherapist because I just talked
to my cat, I talked to my catinstead.
And then he like asks, he tellsher like oh yeah, I was making
small talk with the therapistabout my cat being my therapist
and she was like well, sheprobably didn't like that, since
she's a therapist Like, thatwas really dumb to do that Like
(21:19):
she's so mean, she's so mean.
Speaker 2 (21:22):
Oh my gosh, I forgot
about that.
Literally anything he did, shewas just like that was dumb,
she'd shit on him the entiremovie, I know and then he
proposed to her.
She literally broke up with himthe first time because he like
didn't have enough, because hedidn't want to be fire chief or
something.
She was like you're just toostagnant and I want to be a
(21:43):
veterinarian, so I'm going tomove on to Miami so I can do
that.
Speaker 3 (21:47):
Also hot boy.
Original boyfriend comes backin the last like 10 minutes of
the movie I'm like bitch, Iforgot about you.
You did not need to reappear.
Speaker 2 (21:58):
And the drama you
talk about, how you get stressed
in like the littlest bit ofdrama.
Were you stressed in that movie?
Speaker 3 (22:03):
No, because I was
more stressed about baking the
cookie that you left me to do onmy own.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
I just like the drama
wasn't even that good because,
like, the boyfriend shows up forMiami and she was like I'm
breaking up with you and he waslike okay.
Speaker 3 (22:18):
I know.
Speaker 2 (22:19):
He was like no
investment in anything.
I know, man.
Speaker 3 (22:24):
And she jumps his
freaking bones, the fire chiefs.
She jumps his bones making outwith him and then all of a
sudden she's pissed off thatthey kissed and then cries to
her sister about it.
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
Her sister had the
personality of a box of hair.
Speaker 1 (22:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (22:40):
She gave nothing.
Speaker 3 (22:43):
I don't know, she had
good highlights, that's it.
Speaker 2 (22:45):
And her hair was gray
.
Her hair was gray, yeah, herhair was good.
Speaker 3 (22:49):
Her hair looked great
.
Speaker 2 (22:50):
But she their
conversation.
That was Keith Lee's fair part.
Every time those two interactedshe was like this is so dumb
Also her, the sister's husbandcreepy.
Very creepy.
I think he was supposed to belike a great dad character, but
it came off in a bad way, like alittle too involved.
Yeah, too involved, it wasweird, it was weird.
Speaker 3 (23:14):
Also his weird line
about the breeze.
That was like I just can't.
I couldn't.
Most of the movie wasunnecessary conversation.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
Well, yeah.
Speaker 3 (23:23):
Like it gave me the
whole movie was unnecessary.
Speaker 2 (23:26):
Wait, what line about
the breeze?
Speaker 3 (23:28):
Or he's like I
brought you a breeze at the
party in like the last 10minutes of the movie, and she's
like, and he's like, I want youto recreate the recipe, as if
we're supposed to know thatshe's like a good baker or
something with this like thefirst time they even talk about
that.
And then she's like, well, canyou go get me like three more?
Speaker 2 (23:46):
Yeah, she's like well
, if you're gonna, am I gonna
recreate I'm gonna need threemore.
Yeah, that was totallyunnecessary.
Why do we need that to happen?
Speaker 3 (23:52):
I don't know this is
so boring.
I know Because the movie was soboring.
I hope people watched it.
Speaker 2 (23:57):

I think we talked
about that.
He's chaotic.
Speaker 3 (24:57):
He's chaotic.
I also don't really like which.
This feels really controversial, controversial.
I've never seen this movie allthe way through and I think mom
like poisoned me about thismovie but it's Christmas story.
I've never seen it all the waythrough either I haven't seen it
all the way through and momwouldn't really let us watch it
(25:18):
because she said it stressed herout.
And so now when I watch it Ijust get stressed and I've never
seen it all the way through andI feel like you can't say that
out loud.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
Yeah, I didn't watch
it.
I've never seen it.
Speaker 3 (25:29):
People love it.
Jay like cannot believe that Ihaven't seen it.
But it was like a no-no in ourfamily.
Speaker 2 (25:35):
Yeah, we never
watched it.
Speaker 3 (25:37):
Our mom was like it
stresses me out the family's
fights too much, but then likeChristmas vacation was okay.
Speaker 2 (25:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (25:46):
I was allowed to
watch that starting in like the
third grade, but not Christmasstory.
Speaker 2 (25:51):
Yeah, Weird, that's
so yeah, christmas vacation

Speaker 3 (26:00):
But they're like I
don't know, I guess, jolly about
it.
What are your favorites?
Speaker 2 (26:07):
I love White
Christmas and we didn't grow up
watching that.
I like watched it two years agofor the first time, or maybe a
couple more than that, but likeas an adult with my own kids for
the first time and was like howhave I never seen this movie?
It's so good Like I love it andI don't know my least favorite.
I don't love Four Christmases.
Speaker 3 (26:29):
Oh gosh, I don't

Our dad loves that movie.
Talk about chaos, like I neverwant to watch that one.
No, I also don't ever want towatch.
Speaker 2 (26:38):

it Cause I loved the song.
Yeah, snowmizer, heatmizer.
Great movie Plot not good.
Speaker 2 (27:18):

Speaker 1 (27:18):
I didn't realize that
until this year, heartthrob
Anderson.
Speaker 3 (27:22):
Yeah, he like breaks
it down.
Speaker 2 (27:24):
It's so funny and
it's such a bad movie.
Lots of plot holes.
Speaker 3 (27:27):
Lots of plot holes,
but classic.
Speaker 2 (27:32):
I know we haven't
kept like I think because
they're not easy to find, likeon digital streaming services.
But like I, we haven't watchedthose religiously with the kids
every year.
Like we'll watch.
We always watch the Grinch, butthat's the.
Speaker 3 (27:44):
We don't watch the
claymations every year, which
makes me kind of sad.
We do year without a SantaClaus.
Speaker 2 (27:48):
We still need to
watch.
We still need to watch CharlieBrown.
I love that one.
Speaker 3 (27:53):
I love Charlie Brown
too.
Jay's favorite movie Christmasmovie is Arthur Christmas.
Speaker 2 (27:59):
That one's cute.
Speaker 3 (28:00):
He loves it,
literally so much.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
Actually, I always
get that one in Klaus mixed up.
He likes Klaus too, but Arthur.
Speaker 3 (28:07):
Christmas is pretty
cute.
He's like.
It's like all the Santas, likethe Grandpa Santa, the dad and
then the two brothers.
And like the really likeoutspoken go getter brother
thinks he's gonna like becomethe next Santa, but then like
Arthur Christmas.
Speaker 2 (28:25):
Maybe I have seen it.
Speaker 3 (28:26):
It's like he it's
very cute.
Speaker 2 (28:29):
You know what Leigh's
hair Christmas movie polar
express.
Speaker 3 (28:32):
Holy shit, I hate
that movie.
Speaker 2 (28:33):
I just watched that
for the first time since I was a
kid.
Speaker 3 (28:37):
You're right, that's
the worst one.
Speaker 2 (28:39):
And it's.
The entire movie is pale, it'sreally stressful.
It's like the kids are inconstant danger.
Speaker 3 (28:47):
Yes, it is so
stressful.
Speaker 2 (28:49):
The spirit of
Christmas is so weird.
Speaker 3 (28:52):
And like really
confusing and really confusing
and also the CGI, the North Poleis the ugliest city.
Speaker 2 (28:58):
It is like the most
unmagical city they could have
possibly imagined.
Speaker 3 (29:03):
I completely agree.
I completely agree Like it islike it.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
I hate it.
I know I hate it.
It's so bad.
It's so bad.
The elves are so creepy.
Speaker 3 (29:14):
The CGI.
The kids are creepy.
Yeah, the kids are so weirdlooking and all of I just think
about the little girl who'ssupposed to be adorable.
Her little braids stickstraight out of her head and the
little poor boy.
Speaker 2 (29:28):
What's that term?
Uncanny valley?
I feel like it was like kind ofuncanny valley when it came out
.
Now it's just weird.
Like uncanny valley is likewhen something I can't ever
describe it well, but it's likewhen something like looks wait,
look it up.
It's like when something lookstoo realistic but it's like not.
It like leaves you feelingunsettled or something like that
.
But anyway, yeah, I watchedthat the night before we went to
(29:52):
the experience with the girlsand they liked and enjoy it.
Speaker 3 (29:56):
Oh, it says, an eerie
sensation one feels when they
encounter a robot withhuman-like characteristics.
Speaker 2 (30:02):
Oh, okay, but yes,
that is how I feel about the
Polar Express kids, yeah, butyeah, I don't know, like they
didn't really enjoy it.
Speaker 3 (30:13):
Oh my gosh, this came
up.
Speaker 2 (30:14):
I was like yeah,
you're right, this is weird,
yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3 (30:17):
Ew and the kid's like
kind of a brat.
Speaker 2 (30:20):
Is he the main
character, not a brat I?
Speaker 3 (30:23):
don't know, I don't
know.
Speaker 2 (30:24):
Anyway, I just don't
like it Not good.
Our dad loves that movie.
Speaker 3 (30:28):
The one kid that's
like wait, sorry, the toy scene
on the train.
Speaker 2 (30:34):
Oh, very creepy yeah.
Speaker 3 (30:36):
That scared me so bad
and I was like too old to be
scared by a kid movie?
Speaker 2 (30:41):
Yeah, I don't.
I didn't enjoy any of it.
Speaker 3 (30:45):
No, I always want to
rewatch it and I'm like hell, no
, it's not worth it.
Speaker 2 (30:48):
It's a lot of now
that, like the CGI is an
impressive, it's like not worthwatching.
Speaker 3 (30:53):
No, Okay but we can
end on this, okay, jay makes us
watch a movie every year when wedecorate our tree.
It is not a Christmas movie, inmy opinion.
Speaker 1 (31:08):
Frozen.
Speaker 3 (31:09):
Yes, he thinks it's a
Christmas movie.
It's based in the summer.
Speaker 2 (31:13):
I don't think he's
alone in that, but I don't think
it's a Christmas movie.
Speaker 3 (31:16):
Like it's based in
the summer and the only reason
it's snowing is because Elsacan't control herself.
Speaker 1 (31:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (31:23):
It has nothing to do
with Christmas.
Speaker 2 (31:26):
Yeah, there's another
movie that's like that too, and
I can't think of what it is.
Speaker 3 (31:31):
I mean, everyone says
die hard, but I've never seen
die hard.
Speaker 2 (31:34):
I haven't either.
I suck at movies.
I should watch it Pretty way.
Speaker 3 (31:40):
I just always fall
asleep in the first 15 minutes
of everything.
Speaker 2 (31:42):
Yeah, you really do.
Speaker 3 (31:43):
You really get me
like nine kittens of Christmas.
Speaker 2 (31:46):
Yeah, I mean, maybe
we just watched that the middle
of the day so you couldn't fallasleep and I drank a coffee
while watching it.

Speaker 2 (32:01):
And all the nine
kittens, but no human names.
Speaker 3 (32:04):

single human name, All right

So definitely watch it.
Speaker 2 (32:09):
Yeah, it's wild.
Speaker 3 (32:11):
It is wild and it's
not actually.
Speaker 2 (32:14):
It's really really
boring.
Speaker 3 (32:16):
Yeah, the whole time

just like bored, but I also likehad to finish it, like I needed
to know how it ended.
Speaker 1 (32:24):
