It’s the most wonderful time of the year: That's right we're telling you why the 4x Oscar Nominated Die Hard is indeed a Xmas movie. A thread.
Plot: NYC Policeman John McClane is visiting his estranged wife and children. At the Nakatomi Corporation’s holiday party (yes, on Xmas Eve, we digress) he’s met with a serious situation. Plot set up to be concluded with what could only be described as a Xmas miracle? Check.
When McClane arrives in Los Angeles, he requests Christmas music from his driver Argyle. We hear Run-DMC’s Christmas in Hollis play us out. Drop needle holiday spirit? Check.
The Wilds characters as holiday treats to remind you that calories stopped counting on December 1st.
Dot is one of those holiday tins with three flavors of popcorn, because they’re both reliable, would keep you company in the kitchen at a boring party, and are the people’s princess of their respective fields.
Fatin is your friend who never met an event she couldn’t overdress for. She’s definitely the kind of ostentatious gingerbread house that makes the whole competition set rules next year for how much each entry can spend.
It’s a Boys as fall candles thread, take a big sniff. First up: Homelander. Some hate him on sight. Some have their entire identities wrapped up in his brand. Either way, Homelander is “Pumpkin Spice.” 🧵
She’s got a powerful aura and she’s mysterious! But beneath that first layer of intrigue, our girl is a complicated night sky of passions, dreams, and doubts. Kimiko is “Dark Blue Night.”
After the road trip episode with Mother’s Milk, Hughie and Starlight, we couldn’t help but dream about MM driving us up the east coast on a leaf peeping trip. MM is “Woodland Road Trip,” but we’ll let him choose the playlist this time.
Strike a match and set that autumn mood with this thread of Adam Driver characters as candles from @TheYankeeCandle fall collection that nobody asked for but we think is very necessary:
In What If, Adam plays Daniel Radcliffe’s wacky, unpredictable friend. He’s the scent Haunted Hayride, because you never know what’s going to happen next, and it sort of feels like you’re putting your life at risk by being there.
In This is Where I Leave You, Adam is the family screw-up who is perpetually getting handsy with his older, wealthy fiancé. This guy is Kitchen Spice, because he’s not afraid to get saucy in any room of the house.
We partnered with @SXSW to bring you a limited collection of shorts, features, and docs (oh my!) from all over the world — free to view in the US starting Monday, 4/27 for the next 10 days. Here’s a list of everything you’ll be able to watch.
Le Choc du Futur (feature): In 1978 Paris, Ana struggles to make a mark in the male-dominated music industry. But she's about to discover a sound no one's ever heard before: a lil' thing called Electro Pop.
Director: Marc Collin
My Darling Vivian (documentary): The story of Vivian Liberto, Johnny Cash's first wife and mother of his four daughters. Includes footage and photographs of Johnny and Rosanne, as well as Reese Witherspoon, Joaquin Phoenix, Whoopi Goldberg, and more.
