The Christmas Chronicles is a 2018 film directed by Clay Kaytis, starring Kurt Russell as Santa Claus.
The project was announced in December 2017, when Kurt Russell, Judah Lewis and Darby Camp were chosen as the protagonists of the Netflix film.
Filming of the film began in January 2018 in Toronto and then continued in Chicago.
The Hollywood Reporter includes the film among the thirty-six best Christmas films of all time.
The sequel, also produced and distributed by Netflix, was released in 2020 and sees the return of Kurt Russell, Goldie Hawn, Darby Camp, Kimberly Williams-Paisley and Judah Lewis to the cast, while the new faces are Julian Dennison and Jahzir Bruno; Chris Columbus is directing, and is also co-writing the screenplay with Matt Lieberman.
everytime i see rhys darbys in that one pirate show i think do the fans know... do they know he was coran hieronymous wimbleton smythe in voltron (2016)
i genuinely wholeheartedly believe rhys darby does not remember voltron. i think if you pulled up his imdb page and showed him his voice actor credits he would bemusedly take the phone from you, spend a moment scrolling through the gallery, and then return the phone while genially remarking, "strange, isn't it?"
i have no proof of this. i just know it to be true.
Song When Jesse Becomes Fung-Irl For The First Time
Sung by Darby Camp as Jesse/Fung-Irl.
[JESSE]
It's so dark
Not a star in the sky
With no sound to be heard
And reality blurred
Dreams are gone with the light
Fading out
Till the world's far behind
I can't do this alone
I can't find my way home
With this doubt in my mind
Gotta find the courage in me
To stand up and be
Braver than I have been before
Searching for the courage in me
So I can believe this is what I am destined for
Is this my moment to rise
Leave the person I was behind
There are storms to come
Can I face each one
Is it time
Is this my moment to rise
I have started to realize
Doubts that held me down
Begin fading now
Is it my
Moment to rise
As I stand
With a new path to tread
The hope in my heart
Starts to shake at the thought of what might lie ahead
Should I fight
There's so much I don't know
Do I push through the fears
Till a new world appears
Though I might be alone
[FUNG-IRL]
What was in darkness
Is totally different in the light
And deep in my heart
I have found a way to climb to new heights
I will go on regardless
Of anything standing in my way
Harness the power in me for those who need to be saved
I won't run I won't hide
I will soar through the sky tonight
I'm not going down without a fight
And now is the time
My moment to rise
it's so funny to see how differently people react to rhys darby, and it's so apparent when you look through the notes of tumblr posts. i'd say there are roughly three camps of fans? the "he's my strange funny uncle and all the thirst is weird" ones, the "he's pathetic and swagless and that's exactly why he's irresistable to me" ones, and the "he's objectively so hot i'm gonna die" ones.

A partire dall’ingresso dell’Italia nella NATO, la servitù militare è stata per il nostro paese una costante. Non solo i soldati italiani sono stati utilizzati come ascari degli Stati Uniti…

== Love Notes ==
Hey there lovelies, another busy couple of days. My son starts kindergarten tomorrow! Boy how time flies, huh? I feel like I was pregnant like last month, and here he is grown up and 5 years old, and off to school.
Do you remember those days? I remember my first day of kindergarten. I'm 38 years old, and that's still a day I remember. I remember the brown wall with the pink buttlerflies of my classroom, and the desks I'd never seen before. I remember being scared...wondering why I was in a new place I didn't recognize, but I remember having such a great time too. I remember counting to 25, and reading Berenstain Bears books, and making friends and I don't remember a lot of other days from that year, but I remember that one.
It's amazing what little things in life we remember, even 30+ years later. Remember to take a moment to smile and enjoy things even when they're a bit scary lovelies. Sometimes they turn out to be wonderful memories.
I hope you're all staying healthy <3
