    Seriously, Fred Cluas is on now on TV3.

    A movie about Christmas, in May.....

    Has the one in charge of scheduling in TV3 lost the plot?

    WTF

    Fred Claus, like Jingle All The Way, is a cinematic masterpiece of our time. It's not on TV enough in my opinion.

    Funny you should say that, as Iron Man 3 (showing in May) is set at Christmas time..

    Well, it is set at Christmas, and it does have a lot of Christmas stuff in it. ;)

    But it's not actually about Christmas - indeed, it was released in the States in July of '88. :D;)

    This is worth checking out:

    I'm too lazy to cleanup my phone music playlists, so every third song it plays is a Christmas song.

    The only decent Christmas song is Chris Rea's Driving Home for Christmas :P

    I watch Die Hard anytime the mood strikes me myself.
