I didn't see it (because I don't wake up at 6am on the Sunday after Christmas)....Highlights? YouTube? Was it on Ashleigh, or the new Reactor trend in general?

Eric Janssen

And Beans was able to get some airtime πŸ˜‹

Danika Silva

I was happy to see how prominently they showcased the channel for her.

Zomg just saw the interview with you on CBS πŸ€­πŸ˜³πŸ’―πŸ’―πŸ’―πŸ’―πŸ’―πŸ«‚β€β€β€πŸ‘‹πŸ‘‹πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ₯²πŸ˜‘πŸ˜πŸ˜ΌπŸŒΊπŸŒΊπŸŒΊπŸŒΊ

When the movie came out, one critic echoed Ash’s point that a lot of 90’s comedies had to fall back on β€œMrs. Doubtfire syndrome”, ie. comic premises where the divorced dad had to prove he was more β€œfun” than Mom, if he wanted to win his kids back from both her and her new boring achiever boyfriend. Marvel’s Ant-Man floats dangerously into those waters too, but they had bigger agendas on their mind.

Eric Janssen

I like this movie a lot more than you did. Definitely more than I like Christmas Vacation or Jingle All the Way. But, I understand the β€œmeh” feeling. It was a very cool unique storyline when it came out, and had clever humour. But humour now is much more in-your-face or biting these days. Like Elf. So compared to that, this is a little saccharine.

Well, the funny thing about whether or not she needs to see Trek before Galaxy Quest, to me anyway, is that the movie arguably spends more time riffing on behind-the-scenes and/or real-world attitudes of the actors than Trek itself. Watching the show or the movies isn't necessarily going to set her up for that many of the jokes.

Tyler Foster

Although it helps. Especially to have at least seen a little of Star Trek: Next Generation, or enough of William Shatner to TRULY appreciate Tim’s virtuoso imitation.

Eric Janssen

I don't hate all the kid actors in JATW. Just the son. Lol. I didn't mind the movie itself, I loved Sinbad, but hated the kid. Hell, Ashleigh didn't even like Macaulay's acting in the first Hone Alone. But she liked the movie enough.

Jacob Colson

You hated the KID actors in Jingle All the Way? I gave up early on a movie with the warmth of Home Alone 2, the humanity of Christmas Vacation, and the subtlety of Elf. πŸ˜› I used to joke that every Christmas, studios feel compelled to give us one β€œTrepak comedy”, ie. a slapstick Yuletide comedy where the ads can show the characters bumping, spilling and pratfalling to the Russian Trepak dance from The Nutcracker. Points to Jingle for going that extra half-mile and actually PUTTING Tschaikovsky’s Trepak on the soundtrack.

Eric Janssen

And, as if a generation needed it spelled out more clearly, it’s right there in the script: β€œNot Claus the man, the CLAUSE in the contract!” There is no E officially at the end of Santa’s name, and before the late 90’s, there never was. Disney just thought their own title/concept was clever. It’s one of those play-on-words whatchacallits, a β€œpun”. πŸ™„. And no, it’s not β€œprobably okay to spell it both ways now”, you’re STILL plugging a 90’s Tim Allen Disney comedy, that just happened to get more love than β€œJungle 2 Jungle” or that Shaggy Dog remake.

Eric Janssen

That's interesting. I just watched Jingle All the Way for the first time yesterday ( actually I skipped the middle of the film because the beginning was so bad, but the ending was kinda interesting) and your post inspired me to look Jake Lloyd up on IMBD. The kid from Jingle All the Way also played a certain young Jedi knight in Star Wars: The Phantom Menace. I wasn't inspired enough to look up this kid in this movie, I hope he went on to do something better. Actually I quite liked The Santa Clause, I always have, and found the end quite touching.

Mike LL

This movie along with Jingle All the Way I just hated the two kid actors in each part. God they were so annoying, bratty and selfish.

Jacob Colson

On the first night at the North Pole, Bernard is telling Scott that by putting on the suit. he accepted the contract and is now Santa whether he likes it or not. However, the clause says "until the wearer is unable to do so, either by accident or design.". "Design" implies that if he didn't want to be Santa, he didn't have to be.

David Patterson

Haha...I can remember getting at least one K-tel album every Christmas throughout the 70's...then I got a tape recorder one year and used those albums to make tapes of me making like a top 40 radio DJ...ah nostalgia!

Paul Johnson

An enjoyable reaction I also am kinda "meh" with this movie I feel like someone made a Santa "clause" pun and said "Hey let's write a movie around that!" lol...I must concur with the other commenters and say "Galaxy Quest" is Tim Allen's best film and that you would absolutely love it...I can remember 1st seeing Allen on an HBO "Rodney Dangerfield's Young Comedians Special" and that the "manly grunting" shtick was always in his act...also my Grandma Vi used to read a lot of stuff to me when I was little...because of her I knew how to read by the time I was 4!

Paul Johnson

If you think salt and pepper haired santa Tim Allen could get it, you really need to see him as Commander Taggert in Galaxy Quest. No, you don't have to watch Star Trek to enjoy it. But it is in my opinion, Tim's best film ever and one of my top 10 fav films. Please put up a poll with Galaxy Quest on it. Many of your fans will love it. Plus it has Ripley-Sigourny Weaver in it as well as Hans Grubber-Alan Rickman. Great cast and story.

Echo Moon

You are thinking too hard about it

Rickie Muth

This kinda movie always reminds me of the old K-tel commercials. I remembered the little bits of good buried in the looong scenes of slooow. Just like those old commercials that played just the catchy parts of the songs. You forgot how bad the rest of the song stunk until you bought it. (and hopefully you didn't buy it because of Muskrat Love, that's just embarrassing)
