This episode we are breaking down a duet of Hallmark Christmas movies: Sister Swap: A Hometown Holiday & Sister Swap: Christmas in the City (AKA Christmas at the Madison), two movies that star real life sisters (who don’t share any screentime), take place in different worlds (that look the same), separated by a great distance (sometimes), revolve around a dead uncle (who we know nothing about), and feature invisible tears, red velvet cake, volunteering, and combining forces.

I Love This You Should Too is hosted by Samantha and Indy Randhawa

We have some quick reviews of a few holiday movies like the disappointing A Merry Little Ex-Mas, the mediocre I Believe in Santa, the surprisingly charming A Very Jonas Christmas Movie, the disturbing animated special The Christmas Tree, & more! Then Samantha pitches her 2Hallmark Sister Swap movies for next week.

Wicked (Part I) is a 2024 American musical fantasy film directed by Jon M. Chu and written by Winnie Holzman and Dana Fox. It adapts the first act of the 2003 stage musical by Stephen Schwartz and Holzman, which was loosely based on Gregory Maguire's 1995 novel, a reimagining of L. Frank Baum's 1900 novel The Wonderful Wizard of Oz and its 1939 film adaptation. The film stars Cynthia Erivo as Elphaba Thropp and Ariana Grande as Glinda Upland, with Jonathan Bailey, Ethan Slater, Bowen Yang, Marissa Bode (in her film debut), Peter Dinklage, Michelle Yeoh, and Jeff Goldblum in supporting roles. Set in the Land of Oz before the events of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, the film explores the early relationship between Elphaba, the future Wicked Witch of the West, and her dormitory roommate Galinda, who becomes Glinda the Good.

Indy reviews all of Michael Crichton's novels including; Jurassic park, Sphere, The Andromeda Strain… and the rest. It takes a while. Then Samantha previews her favourite movie in recent memory: Wicked, just in time for the sequel's release.
