i love the deus ex machina joke. for those who don't know its a plot device where the hero is saved by a random object or person "just so happens" to pop up to solve the current problem. when i first saw it with my family i busted out laughing, but they couldn't figure out why lol.

@GermanConquistador08 Yeah, most Christmas- movie villains just hate Christmas because they're jerks, but the Postman actually has a rather valid reason. Plus, he's funny as hell and voiced by the same actor who plays Homer Simpson. So, yeah, he's definitely one of the best Christmas villains ever.

[Paycheck125]

So many people didn't want Christmas to be cancelled that even the PLOT tried to help Olive.

Clever girl.

[Alterego912]

Heh, watching this on the December 17th 2011.

And it aired December 17th 1999 sooo yay :D

I love the postman! He's probably the Christmas villian that has the BEST reason for wanting to ruin Christmas: He's the only postal worker in the city apperently so he has to do all of the Christmas deliveries. That would make anyone crazy after so many years.
