He’s scary yet educational!
Expect a video from me on Sunday. This will be my last post before Christmas, as we’ll be heading out to enjoy the holidays with our families.
I did not have a weigh-in this week, as the Weight Watchers group I go to is a workplace one, so we won’t weigh-in again until January 4th. Tina and I also just got back from a short vacation in Gatlinburg, Tennessee. I’ll be posting all about that shortly on my travel blog, The Window Seat.
So this post is to serve only two functions. Here is the first.
If you are a horror movie fan, (I’m specifically looking at you, Craig), then there is a movie you MUST watch before Christmas night. (Oh, and a quick FYI – not really scary at all.)
Santa’s Slay.
It is the most amazing holiday movie ever, starring Bill Goldberg as Santa, the evil spawn of Satan and the Virgin Erica. One thousand years ago, he lost a bet with an angel that he had to be good, stop killing people, and even deliver toys to children for the next millennium. And this year, the 1,000 year bet is over.
Freaking awesome. It does not take itself seriously at all, and it had what may be my favorite movie line from any movie ever.
The two protagonists are waiting for 7 p.m. to arrive, as that is when midnight will occur at Greenwich, which they theorize will also mean Christmas is over at the North Pole. But seven o’clock hits, and the male protagonist says, “The clock just struck midnight at the pole. Christmas is officially over for you, Santa!”
To this, Santa replies, “You know, most people make the same mistake. The correct time at the pole is completely discretionary, because the poles are where all the time zones actually converge.”
And then my favorite line ever, given the female lead: “He’s scary yet educational.”
Here’s the trailer, and it does contain my favorite line. (Which happens to be spoken by Claire from Lost.)
Greatest holiday movie ever.
And this post’s other function: Merry Christmas. Have a joyous and wonderful holiday and enjoy your loved one’s company.
