Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays from a trio of filthy animals. This episode, the guys chose from a pool of Christmas comedies before watching that movie and recording the episode directly after. A movie that neither Mr Vozly nor KMax had seen before. It's The Night Before (2015).

Here are the talking points:

• Initial reactions
• Scene Perception
• Relation to Grief
• Cinematic tools
• Laughter

Mr Vozly, KMax, and the Tin Man come together to talk about movies that make them laugh and what makes them impactful. Talking points include the times they've laughed the hardest in a movie watching experience, what exactly makes them laugh in a movie, comedy now vs comedy 'then', our go-to comedies we watch to improve our mood, and laughter vs belonging- the battle of which is more comforting.

Movies discussed include but aren't limited to: Hot Rod, The Princess Bride, Superbad, American Pie, Cabin in the Woods, the Jackass movies, Megamind, Porky's, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas... the list goes on

Kmax and Mr Vozly dive into Big Hero 6 (2014), and how it explores several concepts. As always, they talk about initial reactions and favorite scenes. Grief, and isolation make a comeback. Of course, the idea of 'Belonging' is discussed. Theme is presented, and the guys see how color, technology, and the connections between Hiro and Callaghan help convey the theme.
