All I want for Christmas is for the crew of the enterprise to see Picard as the leading man in the TNT 1999 version of A Christmas Carol.

I mean the production values are amazing and everyone is acting their face off and it’s the gloomiest most Victorian version since that 1953 one that gave me nightmares.

1701/10 do recommend!

Klaus is a new origin story for Santa Claus, about a postman that gets sent to the remote town of Smeerensburg and befriends a reclusive toy maker. Sergio Pablos, the director, used mostly traditional 2D hand-drawn animation, while animated film nowadays use 3D animation and CGI. Pablos wanted it to give the movie a nostalgic component, but he overcame some of the limitations of 2D using lighting to give volume to the characters.

“One of the early inspirations that we had for this film was ‘Batman Begins,’” said Pablos, whose version of Santa is taciturn, has dealt with loss and has a toy shop that could be seen as a sort of Batcave. “You can definitely say people have described it as 'Santa Begins.’

Klaus è una nuova storia sulle origini di Babbo Natale, che parla di un postino che viene mandato nella remota città di Smeerensburg e fa amicizia con un giocattolaio solitario. Sergio Pablos, il regista, ha usato principalmente animazione tradizionale, in 2D e disegnata a mano, mentre al giorno d’oggi i film d’animazione usano 3D e CGI. Pablos voleva dare un tono nostalgico al film, ma è riuscito a superare alcune limitazione del 2D usando l’illuminazione per dare spessore ai personaggi.

"Una delle prime fonti di ispirazioni che abbiamo avuto per il film è 'Batman Begins” ha detto Pablos, la cui versione di Babbo Natale è taciturna, ha sofferto una perdita, e ha un negozio che ricorda una sorta di Batcave. “Si può decisamente dire che il film è stato descritto come ‘Santa Begins’”

Seasonal bimbo crush

It is around this time of year when I am reminded of my huge crush on Anna Kendrick as as Noelle Kringle in Disney’s Noelle. In my personal opinion, based on my own personal preferences she has the perfect level of ditzy bimbo.

Now hear me out. Sure it’s a Disney movie and there is no sex in the movie, although Anna Kendrick can’t help being stunningly beautiful. The bimbo part comes from the fact that Noelle is so consumed with the Christmas spirit and being jolly and making other people jolly she is often oblivious to practical matters of the real world. She is reasonably functional, not completely out of it, but she does better when there is someone looking out for her. Which is exactly the level of delightful ditziness that I like to see in my bimbos. Not brain dead, or dumb to the point of being handicapped, but so focused on being happy and making others happy that she comes across as ditzy.
