First Look: A Christmas Story 2

Remember how we talked about the fact that a sequel to A Christmas Story was coming direct to video? And remember how we were all disgusted? Well here's the trailer from the studio. And it's... wow.



Why on EARTH are they billing this as the "official sequel" anyway? Do they realize that because it's just so horribly bad that people will pass on it automatically and hope those words somehow make it suck less? Because they don't. They really, really don't. Let's help re-title this for them.

A Christmas Story... TWO?!

A Christmas Story is one of my all time favorite films because, well, it's genius. From the FRAGILE leg lamp to the frozen tongue on the fly pole, it's a holiday film with a little something for everyone.

So I was incredibly saddened to hear that Warner Brothers is about to release a direct-to-DVD sequel.

Seriously. Featuring Daniel Stern as the father. Remember him? You likely last saw him getting smashed in the face by Macaulay Culkin and his wily house traps.

One a list of terrible movie ideas, I think this is worse than the ALF reboot, the Total Recall reboot, and the Red Dawn reboot COMBINED.
