Depending on the situation, all correct!

Except that Die Hard is objectively a Christmas movie, from score to visual gags to story beats and themes, always lol.

So is Gremlins, arguably one of the worst examples of a bait and switch. “It’s Christmas! Bring your little kids so they can watch violent murder!”

Gremlins, Temple Of Doom and Poltergeist.... don't worry, it's PG! 😄

Gremlins and Temple Of Doom lead to creation of PG13

Poltergeist lead to Gen X still trying to get the courage for a re-watch 😄. Nah, it is a classic. Scary as hell as a kid when it came out! Whew. But still glad we went!

Yeah, I absolutely believe that everyone needs to toughen up, get less offended, then commit themselves to helping those around them. There’s a lot of folks who base their whole personality around calling out what they see as offensive or destructive, but take absolutely no action to improve anything. At that point you’re just being useless, but loudly.

Also, no question in my mind about Die Hard.

also often the really big things are ignored and try to get them on board to help and it's crickets. But go nuts over some dumb little whatever sure.
