The Ultimate Movie-Related Holiday Gift Guide
Filed under: Fandom, Home Entertainment, Movie Marketing
Here in the states, the day after Thanksgiving is known as Black Friday and it's supposed to officially kick off the holiday shopping season. Stores opened at the crack of dawn, while people camped out in front of places like Circuit City in order to save a few bucks on a big-screen TV. Sales were everywhere, the mall was a zoo and I came close to offing myself in front of Gap Kids on at least three separate occasions. It wasn't pretty. Because of the crowds, chaos and corruption, I usually like to do a lot of my shopping online. Thus, I must point you toward Moviefone's annual movie-related holiday gift guide, featuring the most random gifts that would be perfect for the movie lover in your family.
Myself? I already own the leg lamp from A Christmas Story (though it took me awhile to convince the wife to buy it for me), but I'll definitely be asking for the book 1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die. Additionally, the Princess Leia dog costume is a must-have (and fitting since my dog is named after the Princess), and how can you resist those Big Lebowski and Office Space bobble heads. Apart from all that, you can also own a Dumbledore Gay Pride t-shirt, movie props, a Marilyn Monroe lava lamp, movie board games, a sweet ass Batman alarm clock and cool James Bond spy gadgets, among other things. Seriously, I think I just found everything I want for Christmas in one sitting. So head on over to Moviefone, check out the gift guide, then let us know what you'll be getting from Santa (or Chanukah Harry) this year.

What I'm about to say is probably gonna go over like a lead balloon but oh well: If J.K. Rowling really wanted to make a statement for homosexuality, then shouldn't have Harry Potter been the gay one? The whole thing seems rather incongruous to me. I think the Dumbledore is gay statement is just something she spouted off to anger the religious right. Not that I mind Dumbledore being gay, mind you. Any more than it would bother me if my boss was gay or the guy who cooked my food at Outback was gay. But you see my point.

Whatever you get off of that lousy Christmas idea list, don't get the Borat book. It's horrible. It retains none of the humor from the movie, and wasn't even worth wasting a rental from the library.
I do like the Oscars with your name on it, I'd like one of them.
