but I just saw "Bad Santa." So f*cking great. The sheer amorality. I love me a loathesome lead character (cf. "Buffalo Bill"), and this is a good one. Can't wait to see the Director's Cut DVD, in which he's apparently even more irredeemable.
When my wife was on maternity leave, she used to take the baby to Mommy & Me movies, and this was one of them. Oh, the idea of a theater full of postpartum mothers and screaming infants watching this!
Also did my duty as an American and watched "It's a Wonderful Life." Again. Never fails to put a lump in my throat ... though my favorite part is when Nick has George and Clarence thrown into the snow on their faces and then starts dinging the register, "Look, angels are getting their wings! Haw haw!" And I also think that Potterville looks like a lot more fun than Bedford Falls, but I also spit every time I pass through what they've done to Times Square.
