You'll Shoot Your Eye Out! (Not A School Shooting Thread)

How has no one talked about this yet?!

Here's a trailer for HBO Max's A Christmas Story Christmas

 

That shit was run into the ground 20 years ago.

 

Christmas Story sequels?

 

Christmas Story, period.

Seeing my kids watch it for the first time was kind of cool, though.

 

You should watch the trailer. Everyone's back except Darren McGavin (dead) and Melinda Dillon (retired 15 years ago). It looks cute, actually.

 

We'll keep that between us, because I hate to see my wife throw down against guys.

 

Looks perfectly fine.

 

It really does! I might even be able to wrangle a whole-family watching event!

 

Just watched it. I guess it’s fine.

I just wish they’d give us a chance to miss it before hitting us with the nostalgia.

 

A sequel already came out in 1994.

of course, having no one from the original cat probably killed it more than anything.

Looks pretty cute. I'm sure I'll see it on my own at some point. My wife has an irrational hatred of the first movie. She can't really explain it.

I wonder if they recast the mother role with Julie Hagerty, or if she's playing an aunt or something. (The original movie character is listed as Mother Parker, this one is listed as Mrs. Parker).

 

Says she is Mrs Parker on her imdb page.
just saw you said that, would have to think it's the same role
