What is your complaint? that you made an incorrect assumption and didnt DVR the correct show?

He is wrong anyways. During the show in the 2nd picture they flashback to the first picture. So technically DDD is right the first screen cap is shown during the second screen cap episode.

I just finished watching via Netflix-streaming Hollywood Christmas, a TV special from the '90s hosted by Jane Seymour that provides clips from lots of Christmas movies starting with the first, a two-minute offering from 1898 that was a technological marvel at the time and immensely popular, even though the production values approximate those of a hastily assembled ward road show.

The program includes clips from several of the films featured in this contest (and has a few answers to the related questions), although DDD will deplore the lack of Rankin Bass offerings. If you like Christmas movies and nostalgia, it's worth a look.

Warning: this movie deserves its R rating.

Um, yeah. I just finished watching this (the extended director's cut was all that was available on the pirate...er...netflix) and it was easily the most profane movie I've ever seen, although I haven't seen the Big Lebowski or anything by Tarantino.

Through Day 19

1. PAC
2. CougJunkie
3. Rickomatic
4. The King of Halloween

I know for a fact that a few of you are sandbagging until the final hours, so I would anticipate some wild swings in the standings down the home stretch.

And now.....back to our program....

We (my sister and I--Mrs. PAC eschews such vulgarity) got the Netflix DVD and chose the director's cut (unrated!) and it was worse than the original. It left out several great scenes, including the boxing ring where the kid is being taught to fight and all three (the kids, Santa and the elf) all end up on the floor kicking each other. It also left out the candy corn advent calendar and a couple of other gems, while changing the final scene to show the kid cleaning blood off of the sidewalk, rather than the theatrical (and more audience-pleasing) version with the kid kicking the bully in the nads and riding off on his bike. Santa's letter to the kid at the end of the movie remains a holiday pleasure for me, albeit a perverse one.
