12 Days of Krankmas

During the 12 days leading up to Christmas 2021, we watched the film Christmas with the Kranks every single day and posted about it here.

Merry Krankmas, everyone!

What would Vic say?

[12 Days of Krankmas @DaysofKrankmas]

Forgot how much this movie slams ass when you watch it one time (1)

[12 Days of Krankmas @DaysofKrankmas]

Just kidding I’d rather die. But we are watching it once for the sake of posterity and remembrance.

Whose ready for Krankmas 2022?!

Happy birthday to Santa Clause and the voice of Buzz Lightyear 🎉

Tim Allen turns 69 today! 🎂

Finally got around to packing away the Krankmas decorations, worst part of the year 😪

[12 Days of Krankmas @DaysofKrankmas]

There truly is no greater gift than the gift of not having to watch Christmas with the Kranks. Merry Christmas to all!

[12 Days of Krankmas @DaysofKrankmas]

@YakkoLWarner Thank you so much, Yakko, this truly makes it all worthwhile. Can’t wait to wear this jpeg to Christmas dinner ❤️

It’s suck

[12 Days of Krankmas @DaysofKrankmas]

Well gang, the moment is here. 12 Days of Krankmas is OFFICIALLY over. 12 days. 12 viewings of Christmas with the Kranks. It’s hard to sum up how I’m feeling in this moment, so here’s a brief summary of my final thoughts on the movie. 🧵

[12 Days of Krankmas @DaysofKrankmas]

When Spike walks in on the robber stealing from the Kranks, it gives the distinct impression that he’s just wandering around the house and looking in all the rooms - which I gotta say, credit where credits is due, that’s 10/10 shitty kid energy.

[12 Days of Krankmas @DaysofKrankmas]

It truly is so funny that all the neighbours would make such an effort for the Kranks, who have been nothing but awful for days, JUST because Blair is coming home. Sure she babysat their kids but I imagine they paid her like they owe this family nothing and they deserve nothing.

[12 Days of Krankmas @DaysofKrankmas]

And y'know what, it needs a radically different second half too. This movie needs a full overhaul.

[12 Days of Krankmas @DaysofKrankmas]

This movie needs a radically different first half. We need more time with Blair before she leaves, we need to explore Nora's empty nest syndrome, and for the love of God they need to cut back on the amount of people who have the same "Skipping Christmas?!" conversation.

[12 Days of Krankmas @DaysofKrankmas]

Somehow it took me up until viewing 12 to notice how wet the Hickory Honey Ham sounds when Nora shakes it. Absolutely revolting. I’m a vegetarian myself but I’m pretty sure ham shouldn’t slosh around like that.

[12 Days of Krankmas @DaysofKrankmas]

Man, it must be bad if MLPFAN3991 gave it 1 star.

[12 Days of Krankmas @DaysofKrankmas]

I was genuinely so concerned that the actor who plays Marty/Santa (spoiler alert) was dead that I didn't even look him up. Turns out he's fine; just real old.

[12 Days of Krankmas @DaysofKrankmas]

Half hour into the last viewing of Christmas with the Kranks and I have no thoughts. I’m tapped out. I got nothing left.

[12 Days of Krankmas @DaysofKrankmas]

@JesseFucksMen NO

[12 Days of Krankmas @DaysofKrankmas]

The panpipe introductoon to the Peruvian Christmas carol that they sing at the Christmas Eve party has been permanently etched into our minds. If I had a parrot in my house, that's the only sound it would make.

[12 Days of Krankmas @DaysofKrankmas]

This also applies to the “Luther doesn’t know what cinnamon sticks are” scene.

[12 Days of Krankmas @DaysofKrankmas]

I have to assume the line about fish tacos in an Irish pub was improvised. It just feels like Tim Allen complaining about his lunch for the day to a Jamie Lee Curtis who is unable to escape.
