Episode #63: Trading Places / A Charlie Brown Christmas / Best & Worst Christmas Movies

Published: Dec. 17, 2017, 10:11 p.m.

This week on the show, we had to double up on our Christmas choices, due to severe lack of time this month!

 

For part one, we took on John Landis' 1983 holiday classic, "Trading Places". Aside from a joke or two which have dated quite badly and some confusion over the ending, it's fair to say we all enjoyed the movie immensely. 

 

For part 2, we bent the rules slightly by watching a Christmas T.V. special - the seminal 1965 "A Charlie Brown Christmas". There was talk on bullying as well as the bravery of the makers of the special. This kind of thing would most likely not be made today - it may be hilarious and heartwarming, but it's also dark as hell!

 

For part 3, we asked:

 

"What are the best and worst Christmas movies?"
