    Branden you haven’t seen Lethal Weapon or Die Hard? Please deposit your man card here. And Brendan, you left off the action-comedy triple threat by not including Kiss Kiss Bang Bang. It too is a Christmas movie.

    • Branden

      Ha! You can ask anyone, I lost my Man Card years ago. I’m fine with that. But, I will be watching both soon. He ranted and raved to me about Kiss Kiss Bang Bang before. That’s another one that I’ll be watching along with those two.

  • Brendan

    Ah Travis, you are correct! I’ve meant to watch Kiss, Kiss, Bang, Bang again for quite some time! It’s so high on my top ten of the past decade for a reason! One of my favs…but I completely forgot about the Christmas aspect of it. Not sure how, of course, with Michelle Monaghan in that holiday outfit and all.

    That’s definitely changing things up…that would land at #3 easily. So, so good.

    A talking monkey?!
