The Christmas Chronicles 2 (25 November | NETFLIX)

[straightorbroken]

Goldie Hawn is coming, Goldie Hawn is coming

I'll never hear Melanie Thornton's soda pop classic the same again. I'll bet their kids never heard the end of it growing up. Anyway, really looking forward to this. I hope Goldie looks younger and younger with every scene. Siempre viva, Christmas forever!

This NETFLIX-produced film is on NETFLIX.

 

[straightorbroken]

It's now live on Netflix and I'm now watching it on Netflix right now.

 

[straightorbroken]

Yes Goldie's face is going downhill like an avalanche, but she's a visual treat as always.

 

[Ellie]

Do I need to see the first one to understand this?

 

[straightorbroken]

Had no idea Mrs. Claus is a witch.

 

[straightorbroken]

Do I need to see the first one to understand this?

I've not seen it either. If there are any references to the first I've certainly not picked up on them.

 

[straightorbroken]

If Kurt isn't wearing a wig, I'm impressed.

 

[straightorbroken]

Ah the good old Dan Connor lights out clap.

 

[straightorbroken]

Well the Christmas scenery is lovely, but it's rather on the flimsy side so far (40 minutes in).

 

[straightorbroken]

Evil elves with chainsaws. The kids are going to love this.

 

[straightorbroken]

Nice of them to use a star fragment from Animal Crossing as the town's tree-topper.

 

[straightorbroken]

Belsnickle is like the podgy son of Hook's Rufio.

 

[straightorbroken]

Oh Darlene Love has popped up, but will she pipe up?

 

[straightorbroken]

WHY YES SHE WILL.

 

[straightorbroken]

Oh just have her belt Baby Please Come Home, it's not as if she's not itching to, not this jaunty non-starter.

 

[straightorbroken]

Well she is 79 so I'll let her off the hook.

 

[straightorbroken]

Mrs Claus saving the day in the kitchen. Now if anyone should have had a musical number..

 

[straightorbroken]

So in conclusion, The Christmas Chronicles 2 on Netflix is a solid 5 and Goldie's face is an oldie and no longer a goodie.

 

[straightorbroken]

Oh I've just realised Kate's mom is Father of the Bride woman.

 

[straightorbroken]

Disappointed the beach sing along song chosen wasn't Happy Hawaii.

 

[Ellie]

Just finished. This was bad.

That’s all.

 

[rhythmbandit]

Netflix really have a glut of Christmas movies this year, this was the epitome of average, disappointing after how good* the first one was.

*for Netflix.

 

[straightorbroken]

All hopes hinge on Christine Baranski and Jenifer Lewis then.

 

[Berly]

I was saving this for Christmas Eve on account of how good the first one was.

Thankfully, I watched it the other day, because it’s the biggest steaming piece of shite disappointment I’ve seen.

It’s awful. Just watch the first one again.
