My favorite part about this movie was that sinbad's backstory was that when he was a kid, he wanted a gun for christmas, and someone else got the gun and they grew up successful, while sinbad got stuck being the mailman, so he doesn't want that to happen to his kid.

This movie features what is surely one of Arnold's most impressive on-screen feats. His car runs out of gas on the Hennepin Avenue bridge, and he's able to push it all the way to Mickey's Diner in downtown Saint Paul twelve miles away. The movie implies that this did not take him very much time at all - perhaps 15 or 20 minutes. We cannot rule out the possibility that Arnie's character is another Terminator sent back in time to either protect or kill young Anakin Skywalker.

You have quickly become one of my favorite channels on KZbin. Your editing is absolutely top notch and your commentary is surprisingly insightful.

In my head cannon, Arnold’s character was officially cast as Turbo-Man, and is the longest running actor to play the character. Sinbad is cast as that brain guy, and the guy in the pink suit thing is kept on. They go on to make the most successful super hero trilogy of all time, being praised by critics and audiences alike.

Everyone hated on a child rather than accept that Big Papa Lucas just couldn’t write

I am not lying. I am NOT lying. This is my favorite Christmas movie of all time. I LOVE YOU FOR COVERING THIS

[@aracelyvazquez5087]

What a coincidence, I rewatched this last night. One of Arnold's best.

Christmas movies are a sad reminder that there's no Christmas love for all of us in the southern hemisphere :')

I know of at least one: "I'm Mister Green Christmas, I'm Mister Sun. I'm Mister Heat Blister, I'm Mister One Hundred and One..."

The 3 times as of now in my entire time I've been on this earth where I've seen snow in the Carolinas are like treasured memories that rival actual accomplishments

God I love this movie. I still scream "put that cookie down! Now!" At my friends and family.

I suddenly and desperately want to see an Avenger's Endgame style clash between all my childhood Christmas movies. A grand, jolly, and very bloody dash to retrieve the most powerful weapon in the Christmas multiverse: the cotter pin that sheared off the Polar Express's throttle.

This movie is unironically a masterpiece. A true American classic. This is easily in my top 100 movies.

I forgot how this movie was basically a live action cartoon. I remembered it being a goofy comedy, but dang it’s like Looney Tunes levels of nuttiness.

My god this channel is criminally underrated

3:52 This film taking place in the same universe as The Santa Clause is now officially my headcanon.
