Okay, morbid curiosity got the best of us and we started watching HOLIDAY TOUCHDOWN: A CHIEFS LOVE STORY. Abraham Benrubi is back as Santa (they must have him on retainer). There's no star as big as Joe Pantoliano, but they do have four name actors besides Benrubi whereas BILLS LOVE STORY only got three. One of those is Ed Begley Jr, who spent part of his childhood in Niagara County, NY - 30-ish minutes from Buffalo - and attended my wife's elementary school........... yet he's in the CHIEFS movie and not the BILLS movie. This is just one of many small ways in which CHIEFS LS automatically appears better and more affectionately produced than BILLS LS. The two romantic leads here are better than the ones from BILLS (the male lead, who I've seen in other stuff, is actually quite good) and all the supporting players appear capable, which you couldn't say for those in BILLS LS; and the pre-credits sequence appears to have involved a modicum of filmmaking skill not evidenced in the BILLS project.

A glance at Letterboxd confirms no cameos from famous current Chiefs players, though "Karen Kelce" (Travis' mom?) apparently appears, and Letterboxd reviewers are unamused. I will note that, like in BILLS LS, Kansas City is shot as a tiny podunk town in the middle of nowhere, which may just be a Hallmark benchmark. I tapped out after 10 minutes, so no score - yet this is clearly better made than the BILLS version.  :bluesad:  As if Buffalo residents didn't have enough reason for an inferiority complex!

The cast of EXCALIBUR were lost upon me at age 5 or 6 (I think Gabriel Byrne is also in there), but I thought it was impressive-looking and cool and even scary at times. I bought a beautiful VHS copy 20-some years ago and that poster/cover art, man, is an art object all its own...! I was so excited when I loaded it up and hit Play....... but... it underwhelmed me. Maybe results will vary. I was hoping for a Tolkein-esque epic spectacle - heck, even something on par with KRULL would've satisfied me. But perhaps John Badham was out of his element here or... under-funded? I don't know. It played out more like Badham's DELIVERANCE than Jackson's LOTR....... whole lotta' white guys splashin' around in the mud for two hours!

Though they were good with their hands, they didn't exactly make toys.

"Spinal Tap II: The End Continues" (2025)

The members of Spinal Tap reunite for one more gig to satisfy an old contract inherited by the daughter of their late manager, Ian Faith. The boys haven't spoken in almost 20 years, but they soon fall back into their familiar groove and work through some long standing personal issues.
The late Rob Reiner's "legacy-quel" isn't as hilarious as the groundbreaking 1984 mock-umentary, but there are some genuine laughs and it's nice to see the Tap fellas back in action after all this time.
