The greatest xmas video game ever made is Blue Stinger for the dreamcast.
Wtf happened here with all the banned posts? Did you get some "fans" recently?
It's me, the unhinged wrecker has been going after me about my mom's passing.
Well obviously nobody loves them, that’s the only reason for spending time on hexbear according to them
Die Hard as a Christmas movie is the dumbest fucking meme since bacon.
It's not funny. You're not original. Looking at you, Facebook boomers and gen Xers
I never meant it as a joke or a meme :I-was-saying:
I never realized until twitter discourse that it had become such a huge trope/cliche.
I used to watch it with friends every year just because we love Bruce Willis and had antipathy toward the holiday season in general.
I'm just being a hexbear dick. It's ok to like stuff, but I'm just tired of everyone thinking they're so clever for sharing a ten year old meme
I was watching Die Hard on Christmas in the 90s. It's up there with Alice's Restaurant in terms of holiday traditions for me.
I like that movie. The Muppet Christmas Carol and Bill Murray Scrooge movies are decent, but I'd like to see a Christmas Carol adaptation that has the workers of Scrooge Enterprises unionize or something.
Now that I'm thinking about it, A Christmas Story is probably the worst and most racist/mysogynist Xmas movie. Or maybe all the Hallmark movies are worse, idk, I haven't listened to the Citations Needed they just released on this topic yet.
Edit: Has there been a techbro Scrooge movie yet? There will be, I just hope it gets made in Korea before Hollywood gets any ideas. That way it can at least have some anticapitalist themes.

I've tried really hard to imagine what this take on a Christmas Carol would be like and TBH, and as obvious as it seems, I've really struggled to form a coherent picture that even resembles christmas carol and/or has a coherent moral message that's relevant. Even in a Christmas Carol the message isn't that money or rich people are bad, but is if anything a cautionary tale about how hollow the accumulation of wealth for its own sake is. Scrooge isn't really bad or evil because he's rich, but because he lives a hollow pointless and isolated existence alone deprived of any meaning. His lesson is more about nobelesse oblige and not forgetting his personal/familial connection...because in the end nothing he has done in life has mattered and he will have been completely forgotten.
Techbro Scrooge wouldn't really be that though. Techbro scrooge would be going mountain skiing every weekend with friends and family or throwing wild parties for his workplace staff all the time and living life large and in charge. He'd have thousands of instagram followers and would generally be leading a pretty goddamn crazy existence. Its an existance based entirely on exploitation of course...but its going to be hard to do a techbro scrooge story without making it seem aspirational. I'm honestly not sure how you can really do a modern take on scrooge that has him as the protagonist and is also anticapitalist.
Yippie ki yay, motherfucker :speech-l::stalin-gun-1::stalin-gun-2:
Ok but what about the uncanny valley tom hanks movie AKA polar express?
