Miserable people who actively seek out something to complain about. I feel sorry for them.

This reminds of a movie review of Dunkirk where the critic lamented the absence of people of color

I've watched a couple of these this year. Basically the same plot line in each of them. I started working on a screenplay for one set in South Louisiana. OT Baller, hot wife with Gonzales haircut, White Ford, a trip to Elmer's Island, magical time at Arties etc. etc.....Just need a good name.

"The Christmas-down-your-throat bombast, holly-jolly sexism, the characters’ zaniness and unyielding impulsiveness—it’s all very Trumpian behavior," the Slate writer said.


What in the frick did I just read?

So we've found a way to make fricking HALLMARK CHRISTMAS MOVIES racist/sexist now?

I think they are right in that there should be more diversity.


Wouldn't mind this.

Not a dealbreaker for me, though.

I mean, this is the type of tv you turn on in the background and turn your brain off. Or watch with your girl to rack up brownie points.

And someone, somewhere found a way to be mad about it. Amazing

People complaining about the lack of Muslims in CHRISTMAS movies! Movies about Jesus, who Muslims don’t believe in. Movies about a religion that Muslims want to destroy!

Can you imagine the freak out if they sprinkled a few Jews into a Hallmark Ramadan move?
