Ever wonder how Santa does his job? Next year's ARTHUR CHRISTMAS has the answer! See the trailer!
Nordling here.
Actually, this is the new film from Aardman Animations, who always do great work - Wallace and Gromit, anyone? - and stars the voices of James MacAvoy, Hugh Laurie, Jim Broadbent, Bill "It's quite alright, I ran it under a cold tap!" Nighy, Imelda Staunton, and Ashley Jensen. This is also directed by Sarah Smith , who also worked on BRASS EYE and with director Armando Iannucci (IN THE LOOP), and Barry Cook, who's worked on many of the great Disney animated classics. Then you've got the script by Smith and Peter Baynham, who's brought the funny in such shows as BRASS EYE and I AM ALAN PARTRIDGE. So, yeah, this might be more than your average Christmas kids' fare.

Yet it comes out "Holiday 2011" Wtf is "Holiday"? You would think a film called 'Arthur Christmas' would come out around Christmas..right? When does Holiday start? Does Holiday have Santa Clause? Maybe he's called bullshit fucker or something. That sounds good. Hey kids..tomorrow is Holiday! Betcha can't wait for bullshit fucker to come down your chimney and rape your dreams because some agnostic fuck ruined Christmas! Maybe bullshit fucker will bring you that politically correct toy you wanted!! Or not... I feel better..:)

There was an old character actor named Eric Christmas
by openthepodbaydoorshal
I wonder if he had to check in to hotels as Eric Holiday?

I'm sorry. I'm not some Bill O'Reilly War-on-Christmas Fox News chucklehead but I am just sick and tired of 'so and so saved Christmas' movies thanks to helping Santa deliver the material goods... ugh. Enough already.
-
But I will join in. I am SO tired of this PC shit... SO VERY TIRED. Holiday 2011?!? Who REALLY gets offended when you say CHRISTMAS when talking about December 25?! I work on Thomas the Tank Engine, and we get episodes where they mention Christmas Trees, and they talk about Father Christmas, but in the end proclaim "Happy Winter Holidays!" "Happy Holidays is what a terrorist would say. Merry Christmas" - Jack Donaghy.

Could it be that Christmas is a specific day and "Holiday" can encompass the entire season? So they could be covering their bases in case it doesn't come out on Christmas Day. The only thing that is more annoying than the bullshit consumerism of Christmas is the bullshit complaining over the fact that people say Happy Holidays instead of Merry Christmas. Isn't it a little ironic that all the people who complain over that nonsense will also go out and buy a Christmas Tree or gifts for their kids and do a myriad of other things that have nothing to do with the actual meaning of Christmas. There are other religions besides your own, grow the fuck up and deal with it.

does it fucking matter? Please remove your heads from your asses. If someone wants to say holiday let them, it someone wants to say Christmas let them. Who gives a shit who gives a fuck! All this bitching is pointless, also Merry Christmas Assholes!
-
...that movie where Vince Vaughn was Santa's brother or something? Did that ever come out?
-
Yuck for that
-
http://smodcast.com/index.html Holy shit Kevin Smith became a film maker!!!
-
Did he start work on one and realise half way though it was the wrong one or summat?
-
just rednecks running around. KS is no filmmaker
-
Didn't show anything? How about just the fact that looks like no Kevin Smith before. I mean come on it look like something Ben Affleck Directed.
-
Bringing logic into it. (;
-
Someday I will beat Knights of the Old Republic.
-
Which holiday would that be, then? The August Bank Holiday? Whitsunday? The Queen's Jubilee? IT'S FUCKING CHRISTMAS!! And whoever invented the term "Chrismukkah" should be hanged by their smug, appeasing, cowardly balls.
-
its not that I care when people say "happy holidays" I care when people say you CAN'T say Merry Christmas
-
They've already got my $15.00.
-
That's what I was expecting - drunken Russell Brand rampaging in a Santa suit.
-
Bill Willingham explained how Santa Claus does it pretty well in a Christmas issue a few years ago. Santa in fact can be in more then one place at a time, in fact he can be everywhere at once, just only on Christmas Eve.
-
Wow...I saw this toward the beginning of the month on DarkHorizons. I thought this post must've been for a new trailer, but no. Regardless, the movie could be okay. The trailer doesn't really give out much sense of the plot.
-
Seriously, you must be kidding. It's called Fred Clause. Go to Walmart and pick it up for the family for $10.
-
I thought this was going to star a CGI-version of Dudley Moore drunkenly dropping presents out of a Gulfstream G550.
-
Looks pretty decent. And Aardman is the shit. WILL be seeing this.
