Blu Christmas Holiday Movie Asplosion 2022! ⛄ Chapter 46: Hogfather 🦌 I mentioned the profound effect the previous film had on young me, well I think it's safe to say that Terry Pratchett has had the greatest effect on me of any author (he is my favorite author of all time, without doubt). To say I was excited when I learned a live action movie was being made of one of the Discworld novels would be an understatement. And it was one of my favorites, Hogfather! As soon as I was able to find a way to watch it here (in the U.S.) I did, and bought the DVD as soon as it was available, then went on to try and acquire any/every version of it I could find on blu-ray as I discovered they were available. It still makes me sad that Sir Pratchett is no longer with us these several years later, but there is such of wealth of his creation to enjoy that I think I'll get by. Anyways, I like this TV movie-- it has its flaws, as anything does (editing is a bit off in places, and a couple moments seem forced off camera presumably due to what the effects would've cost), but it more than makes up for it in humor, charm, and entertainment. I absolutely adore it, and highly recommend it (and the novel). 🌲 ❄️ 🎄 🎅 #Hogfather #2006 (#TerryPratchettsHogfather ) #TerryPratchett #Discworld #MichelleDockery #IanRichardson #DavidWarner #JossAckland #DavidJason #MarcWarren #NigelPlaner #HappyHogswatch #BluChristmasHolidayMovieAsplosion2022 #iLoveMovies #christmasmovies #holidaymovies #xmas #christmasspecials #holidayfilms #holidays #movies #christmas #iLoveChristmas #blurays #bluray #MovieNerd #abluchristmas #christmasfilms #christmasmoviemarathon . https://www.instagram.com/p/Cm7T-6pvSi_f61tqrhUeJpgtrZ9zdj_Qg_WT3I0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Bill & Ted’s Bogus Journey (1991)

In Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure, our heroes use a time machine to gather the material they need to ace their history class project. What could the sequel do to raise the stakes? It'll be hard but as long as it isn't merely a rehash of the first, things should be ok. The good news is this follow-up is quite different while still keeping everything that was fun about the first chapter intact.

In the far future, Chuck De Nomolos (Joss Ackland) cooks up a scheme to erase the utopia inspired by the music of Wyld Stallyn. With his stolen time machine, he sends robot duplicates of Bill S. Preston (Alex Winter) and Ted Logan (Keanu Reeves) to kill the originals and prevent them from winning a critical Battle of the Bands.

Like the first adventure, this one's delightfully silly and ridiculous. This bogus journey our heroes embark upon takes them not through time, but through all kinds of exotic locations, including Hell itself! A bigger budget means you won’t see comically incompetent versions of the Devil or God, but that’s ok, different types of laughs are offered. There’s a nice blend of moments that are so goofy and (for lack of a better word) dumb, and others with subtle intelligence behind them.

The best thing about this sequel is that it is an original film. If you liked the first one, you’ll enjoy this sequel too. It’s a bit of let down that the duo's girlfriends - a pair of time-displaced princesses - don't get much to do but it’s a treat to see more Bill & Ted and the biggest new character introduced, Death (William Sadler), is hilarious. There are plenty of laughs and nearly as much good-natured fun to be found in Bill & Ted’s Bogus Journey as in their first adventure. (On DVD, March 17, 2017)

Blu Christmas Holiday Movie Asplosion 2022! ⛄ Chapter 34: Miracle on 34th Street [1994] 🦌 This is a rather enjoyable remake, though still barely holds a candle to the original (though why people keep holding candles to things they love I'll never understand...). The highlight has to be Richard Attenborough's Santa. Certainly not as well remembered as his John Hammond, but quite good nonetheless. Also worth nothing, the always enjoyable (and for some reason uncredited here) Joss Ackland as the slightly villainous head of the competing store, Shoppers Express [Not sure what to make of the later behavior in life I have heard of through friends (who knew them) of one young performer in the film, but also don't have direct experience, so will say no more.] Anyways, it's pretty good for a remake I imagine very few thought should be made. 🌲 ❄️ 🎄 🎅 #MiracleOn34thStreet #1994 (#MiracleOn34thStreet1994 ) #RichardAttenborough (a pretty good #SantaClaus ) #ElizabethPerkins #DylanMcDermott #JossAckland #RobertProsky #AllisonJanney #ThatOtherOne #JohnHughes #BluChristmasHolidayMovieAsplosion2022 #iLoveMovies #christmasmovies #holidaymovies #xmas #christmasspecials #holidayfilms #holidays #movies #christmas #iLoveChristmas #blurays #bluray #MovieNerd #abluchristmas #christmasfilms #christmasmoviemarathon . https://www.instagram.com/p/CmvOztnOVz25LmS9kdAHyqBI1bpz6eETDn80hI0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

and the other that I own 3 different blu-rays, and 1 DVD of (and a copy or two of the original book, and a digital copy, a screenplay with pictures...). This one is adapted from one of my favorite books by my favorite author of all time. ❄️ 🎄I'll Have a Blu Christmas Holiday Movie 'Asplosion 2021!🎄 💿 Chapter 56: Hogfather 🎞️ Though certainly less known than the others at this point in the countdown, this is nevertheless an absolute classic as far as I'm concerned. I wish more people were familiar with it, but those who are tend to love it, I find. Sure, it has some editing, pacing, and directing issues, but, it's just so fun and charming and funny. And of course it is, it's the Discworld's answer to Christmas. ⛄ • • • • • #Hogfather #2006 #TerryPratchettsHogfather #TerryPratchett #MichelleDockery #IanRichardson #MarcWarren #DavidWarner #DavidJason #JossAckland #DEATH #Hogswatch #HappyHogswatch #illHaveABluChristmasHolidayMovieAsplosion2021 #iLoveMovies #christmasmovies #holidaymovies #xmas #christmasspecials #holidayfilms #holidays #movies #christmas #iLoveChristmas #blurays #bluray #MovieNerd #abluchristmas #christmasfilms #christmasmoviemarathon (at Jersey City, New Jersey) https://www.instagram.com/p/CXp5d-tubJt/?utm_medium=tumblr

Next up was a remake from the 90s. ❄️ 🎄I'll Have a Blu Christmas Holiday Movie 'Asplosion 2021!🎄 💿 Chapter 44: Miracle on 34th Street [1994] 🎞️ Richard Attenborough was great, Elizabeth Perkins was quite good, Dylan McDermott was very Dylan McDermotty, and Robert Prosky and Joss Ackland are always wonderful. It definitely isn't up there with the original, but this John Hughes production is still pretty good. ⛄ • • • • • #MiracleOn34thStreet1994 #1994 (#MiracleOn34thStreet ) #RichardAttenborough #ElizabethPerkins #DylanMcDermott #RobertProsky #JossAckland #AllisonJanney #SomeAnnoyingChild #JohnHughes #LesMayfield #remake #illHaveABluChristmasHolidayMovieAsplosion2021 #iLoveMovies #christmasmovies #holidaymovies #xmas #christmasspecials #holidayfilms #holidays #movies #christmas #iLoveChristmas #blurays #bluray #MovieNerd #abluchristmas #christmasfilms #christmasmoviemarathon (at Jersey City, New Jersey) https://www.instagram.com/p/CXXFjbeL9_N/?utm_medium=tumblr

🎄Holiday Movie Asplosion 2020!🎄 ❄️Chapter 33: Miracle on 34th Street [1994]❄️ ☃️ [Comparing to the original is both necessary and a little unfair, but in any case, while this John Hughes produced 1994 one doesn’t hold a candle to the classic, it is nevertheless, pretty good. And I think Dr. Hammond–I mean Richard Attenborough, makes a fine Santa Claus. Spared no expense.] 🎅 • • • • • • #HolidayMovieAsplosion2020 #iLoveMovies #christmasmovies #holidaymovies #xmas #christmasspecials #holidayfilms #holidays #movies #christmas #blurays (& some #4Ks ) #bluray #abluchristmas #christmasfilms #christmasmoviemarathon #MiracleOn34thStreet1994 (#miracleon34thstreet ) #richardattenborough (#sparednoexpense ) #santaclaus #elizabethperkins #dylanmcdermott #robertprosky #jossackland #allisonjanney #thatmisguidedexchildstar #johnhughes #santa #1994 (at Jersey City, New Jersey) https://www.instagram.com/p/CIU15KVjMNz/?igshid=dhv5yyr141qy

One remains in my Christmas Carol block, but I am continuing my step away for now, onto a movie that I for one, consider a classic, and a treasure. • Holiday Movie Spectaculár!
