Read MoreA Chaotic, Cozy, Creature-Filled Look Back at Gremlins (1984) There are Christmas movies that fill you with warm fuzzy feelings… and then there’s Gremlins (1984)—the holiday film that taught an entire generation three extremely important life rules: don’t feed after midnight, don’t get them wet, and absolutely never assume a Christmas gift is safe just because it’s cute. This movie is festive, funny, horrifying, adorable, and completely unhinged in the most perfect ’80s way. And yes—it is 100% a Christmas movie, even if it comes with jump scares and small-scale…

Read MoreEvery December, like clockwork, the same argument erupts across living rooms, group chats, and comment sections everywhere: Is Die Hard really a Christmas movie? And every year, I sit back, sip whatever warm drink is nearby, and confidently say: yes. Yes, it absolutely is. No amount of carols, claymation specials, or Hallmark snowfall is going to convince me otherwise. Die Hard (1988) just happens to celebrate Christmas with machine guns, glass-filled feet, and explosive shrapnel—and honestly, that’s part of the charm. At the center of all this beautiful chaos is…
Read MoreStory by Mitchell Smith Welcome to The Outpost. Today I’m taking a look at 1990 G.I. Joe Stretcher. Stretcher was a bit past my prime, but he was one of the first 1990 figures that stood out to me when I got into collecting. He just has a unique uniform and came with cool accessories. Stretcher was the main medic in the cartoon during this time so he was a character that wasn’t just a background character. Stretcher is probably not a first choice for a 90’s GI Joe Classified…
Read MoreA Heavenly, Heartfelt Look Back at The Bishop’s Wife (1947) Some Christmas movies hit you with big spectacle, wild plots, and over-the-top sentiment. And then there are the ones that sneak in quietly, sit down beside you, pour a warm cup of tea, and gently rearrange your heart. The Bishop’s Wife (1947) is absolutely that second kind of movie. It’s soft, romantic, thoughtful, and somehow magical without ever needing fireworks, flying reindeer chases, or exploding candy canes. Instead, it gives us something even more powerful: an angel, a struggling marriage,…
Read MoreA Big, Flashy, Wonderfully Strange Look Back at Santa Claus: The Movie (1985) Every decade has its own flavor of Christmas movies. The ’60s had whimsy. The ’90s had heartwarming hijinks. But the 1980s? Oh, the ’80s gave us spectacle—big, shiny, neon-tinted holiday adventures that swung for the fences whether or not they actually hit them. And nothing embodies that ambitious, slightly bonkers, totally endearing vibe more than Santa Claus: The Movie (1985). It’s the kind of Christmas film you might barely remember… until a single image pops into your…

Read MoreA Colorful, Quirky Look Back at Babes in Toyland (1961) There are Christmas movies that make perfect sense… and then there’s Babes in Toyland (1961), a film that proudly refuses to behave, conform, or even pretend to live in the same corner of logic as any other holiday classic. And that’s exactly why I love revisiting it. You don’t watch Babes in Toyland because you’re craving traditional Christmas comfort. You watch it because you want to take a Technicolor tumble down the peppermint-scented rabbit hole that only early-’60s Disney could…
Read MoreThere’s something special about slipping into an old black-and-white Christmas movie—like stepping through a time portal where everything is a little softer, a little slower, and a whole lot more charming. And if you’re in the mood for pure old-Hollywood warmth, you really can’t get much better than Holiday Inn (1942). This is the movie that not only teamed up Bing Crosby and Fred Astaire in a vintage showbiz showdown, but also gifted the world one of the most iconic holiday songs ever written: “White Christmas.” Yes—this film debuted it…

Read MoreIf you’ve ever tried to watch every film adaptation of A Christmas Carol, you know there are a lot of Ebenezers out there—grumpy ones, goofy ones, musical ones, Muppet-compatible ones. But if we’re talking the Ebenezer, the one who feels like he stepped right off Dickens’ pages, dusted off his nightcap, and glared at you—well, that honor goes to Alastair Sim in Scrooge (1951). For me, this is the version that defines the entire story. Whenever I think of Scrooge, it’s Sim’s crinkled frown and sharp eyes I picture. And…

Read MoreThere are Christmas movies that announce themselves loudly—filled with jingles, slapstick, and glitter explosions—and then there’s Prancer (1989), a film that tiptoes into your holiday season with all the quiet sincerity of a small-town winter morning. It’s one of those movies you might not think about for years and then suddenly remember one snowy afternoon and think, “Oh wow… that one really stuck with me, didn’t it?” And it did. Prancer doesn’t just sneak up on your feelings; it practically ambushes them. The heart of the movie is Jessica Riggs,…
