Merry Christmas and Happy New Year everyone I hope all is well with you and your families. May you all be safe and well in the new year!
So what's been happening, well I have not made a video in quite some time and was intending to do so for awhile, however a thought came to me, what would you guy's rather see, me talk about 'look at what i just got off ebay!'(which is pretty amazing, yet it can wait' or A christmas classic which was and is still listed as one of the WORST films of all time, haha. Since it's release in 1964 it has gained quite the cult following.
I remember seeing this film late one night before christmas years ago, it was on Channel 31(a low budget, local television station). I remember thinking to myself WOW! a christmas movie is on Channel 31! i came in about half way and didn't really understand what was going on, which led to me getting bored quite quickly and turning it off. I forgot about this film and that night until a few years later when i saw it again while channel surfing and landing on Channel 31. Being a few years older i was smart enough to check the tv listing's and found out the title of the film and the year it was made, making it very easy to find a copy of it for myself. Ever since then i try and remind myself every year to watch this film for old times sake, i decided to upload this so that you guys might be able to remember what was once lost to your childhood, or if you have not seen or heard of this before, a chance to look at what once was.
NIck (remember i'm 21 born 1989, i wasn't around in1964)
ps. it's not a comedy but you wont stop laughing, or you will... depends how into it you are. :D
Synopsis - Wikipedia The story involves the people of Mars, including Momar ("Mom Martian") and Kimar ("King Martian"), They're worried that their children Girmar ("Girl Martian") and Bomar ("Boy Martian") are watching too much Earth television, most notably station KID-TV's interview with Santa Claus in his workshop at the North Pole. Consulting the ancient 800-year old Martian sage Chochem (a Yiddish word meaning "genius"), they are advised that the children of Mars are growing distracted due to the society's overly rigid structure; from infancy, all their education is fed into their brains through machines and they are not allowed individuality or freedom of thought.
Chochem notes that he had seen this coming "for centuries", and says the only way to help the children is to allow them their freedom and be allowed to have fun. To do this, they need a Santa Claus figure, like on Earth. Leaving the Chochem's cave, the Martian leaders decide to abduct Santa Claus from Earth and bring him to Mars. One Martian, Voldar, strongly disagrees with the idea and tries to repeatedly kill Santa Claus along with two kidnapped Earth children. He believes that Santa is corrupting the children of Mars and turning them away from the race's original glory.
When they arrive on Mars, Santa and the children build a factory to make toys for the children. However, Voldar and his assistants, Stobo and Shim, sabotage the factory and change the programming so that it makes the toys incorrectly. Meanwhile, Dropo, Kimar's assistant has taken a great liking to Santa Claus and Christmas, puts on one of Santa's spare suits and starts acting like Santa Claus. He goes to the toy factory to make toys, but Voldar mistakes him for Santa and kidnaps him.
When Santa and the children come back to the factory to make more toys, they discover the machines has been tampered with. Voldar and Stobo come back to the factory to make a deal with Kimar, but when they see the real Santa Claus they realize that their plan has been foiled. Dropo, held hostage in a cave, tricks his guard Shim and escapes. Kimar then arrests Voldar, Stobo and Shim. Santa notices Dropo acts like him, and says that Dropo would make a good Martian Santa. Kimar agrees to let Dropo be the Martian Santa Claus and sends Santa and the children back to Earth.
