    Home Alone is the greatest Christmas movie of all, Lock thread, argument over.

    die hard, the great escape and then home alone

    A belief in gender identity involves a level of faith as there is nothing tangible to prove its existence which, as something divorced from the physical body, is similar to the idea of a soul. - Colette Colfer

    Bad Santa Is some cranky b@stard that likes large women's back doors and dislikes children. Maybe that's why he uses the back door.

    Em, while we all of course know that the, em, real Santa lives in the north pole etc, the er...representation of Santa does occur in a variety of forms across different media.

    Bad Santa is unfunny sh1te. Home alone and Die Hard are movies set at Christmas but not Christmas movies.

    I've never seen Bad Santa but I'm just going to watch the YouTube snippets posted here, and put it together in my head. I'm sure that'll be more fun than the real thing.

    I don't think that I've ever seen Billy Bob Thornton in anything, but many years ago, he helped me win 2 TV/video combis from Dave Fanning's The Movie Show. And yeah, they were TV/video combis, not TV/DVD. And yeah, I got 2 of them.

    Billy Bob Thornton was sublime in Fargo, only thing I've ever liked him in really.

    Forget Bad Santa, Dan Ackroyd's pathetic Santa was a far funnier sight.
