Let's talk about Kirk Cameron's new movie SAVING CHRISTMAS

[Himu]

He's apparently now begging his fans on FB for positive reviews on RT.

Choice quotes:

“This movie turned me from bisexual to full lesbian.”

"It is The Room of Christmas movies. Actually, The Room is more enjoyable. But you get the idea."

"How do you prove a horse is an animal? Because I like Sweden. That's the style of absurd logic that happens in "Kirk Cameron's Saving Christmas""

"Hot cocoa is referenced no fewer than nine times. Cameron talks about the drink as though it were the trump card of his entire argument, as though dropping a microphone. "And COCOA!""

"Had "Saving Christmas" run any longer, Cameron would no doubt have found a way to find the divinity in Frosty, Rudolph, the Grinch, peppermint bark, the Elf on the Shelf, frosted cranberry hand soap and Mr. Hanky the Christmas Poo."

"Perhaps the only Christmas movie I can think of, especially of the religious-themed variety, that seems to flat-out endorse materialism, greed and outright gluttony."

[Joe Molotov]

I want to see this movie.

Can't wait to watch this in a couple years as part of a Rifftrax Christmas live show.

It's just another tired and sad attempt to make money off of a group of tired and sad people who constantly think their religion is under attack. It's the same as God's not dead heaven is real or whatever it's called.

This what I see when these movies come out:

it's amazing to see some Christians fully embrace the hyper materialism of Christmas now, in response/retaliation to perceived sleights on capitalism from godless leftists. Back when I was religious nearly all the churches I was familiar with didn't really like what Christmas had become because the materialism had superseded Christ. This film seems to be arguing that Christ is being pushed out of Christmas by...secularists who recognize that many holidays are celebrated in December.

Christmas is the dominant holiday in this country, it's not going anywhere. Nor does one have to say 'happy holidays." fucking distinguished mentally-challenged fellows, man...

lol is this movie really about turning buying shit into some measure of worship?  if so.

reminds me of pastors hitting that prosperity gospel so nobody side-eyes their lavish lifestyle

Incidentally I have a friend that looks exactly like Kirk Cameron. We once were eating downtown at Mortons and all these religious fanatic 50 year old divorcees (figure that out) were hovering around our table until he actually had to show them his work ID to prove he wasn't Cameron.

Everybody celebrates and/or tries to celebrate Christmas in the US. I celebrated Christmas as a kid when I lived in Texas, and when I lived in Virginia, it's fun.
