A Christmas Show A Day: The Jetsons
Member of the Boxxet Network of Blogs, Videos and Photos
To tell you the truth, I didn't even know The Jetsons had a Christmas episode until I found this at Fancast.com. The episode is called "A Jetson Christmas Carol". The basic plot is that miserly Spacely (George Jetson's boss) is transformed by a visit from the Spirits of Christmas. If you like the Jetsons, and even if you don't you will probably enjoy this episode.
This episode premiered on April 13, 1985. A little late for the Christmas season, but what do I know?
This video doesn't appear to be on DVD, but if you want a video tape of the show, they still have it at Amazon.com:

It's been quite a while since we've had a good crazy woman on screen who is chasing after a married man. Well now it seems that we have one in Ali Larter (Heroes). She is the woman obsessed with Derek Charles (Idris Elba). Beyonce Knowles is the spouse. The trailer looks pretty riveting. Watch it and see. The movie will be released on April 24, 2009.
TrailerAddict.Com, who provided the video, also gives this description:
Derek Charles (Idris Elba), a successful asset manager who has just received a huge promotion, is blissfully happy in his career and in his marriage to the beautiful Sharon (Beyonce Knowles). But when Lisa (Ali Larter), a temp worker, starts stalking Derek, all the things he's worked so hard for are placed in jeopardy.

Member of the Boxxet Network of Blogs, Videos and Photos
From the title of this movie I thought the trailer was going to be another chick flick. Then, as I started watching, I thought, no, this is a guy flick. By the end of the trailer, I realized that this is really a date movie. It has something in it that couples would enjoy together. Watch the trailer and see for yourself.
After getting engaged, Peter Klaven (Paul Rudd) realizes he's short on guy friends. In order to correct the issue, Peter begins to go on man-dates.

"Somewhere In Time": Where Time Travel Meets Love. Watch It Here.
"Somewhere In Time", starring Christopher Reeve and Jane Seymour, is one of my all-time favorite tales of love and tragedy. The screenplay was based on a story written by note science fiction author, Richard Mathison.
"Somewhere in Time" is the story of a young writer who sacrifices his life in the present to find happiness in the past, where true love awaits him. Young Richard Collier (Emmy winner Christopher Reeve) is approached by an elderly woman who gives him an antique gold watch and who pleads with him to return in time with her. Years later, Richard Collier is overwhelmed by a photograph of a beautiful young woman (Golden Globe and Emmy winner Jane Seymour). Another picture of this woman in her later years reveals to him that she is the same woman who had given him the gold watch. Collier then becomes obsessed with returning to 1912 and the beautiful young woman who awaits him there.
It is a haunting story that is sure to touch your heart. The musical score, which was written by John Barry, is one of the all time greats. Somewhere in time was released on October 3, 1980.
Bellagio Las Vegas Christmas Conservatory
I figured that since I work at Bellagio in Las Vegas, and get to look at this every day, I would share these pictures of the conservatory here for those who are unable to visit. With times being as hard as they are these days, that would be even more than before. Hope you have a happy holiday.

Member of the Boxxet Network of Blogs, Videos and Photos
The images in the trailer for "Powder Blue" leaves you curious as to what the film is exactly about as their is no dialogue until the end of the clip. Some pretty big name stars are in the film, including Ray Liotta, Forest Whitaker, Patrick Swayze, Jessica Biel, and Kris Kristofferson.
Thank goodness for TrailerAddict.Com which provides this description of the film:
The trailer for Powder Blue. Several Angelenos meet on Christmas Eve through chance, tragedy and divine intervention. Swayze will play the sleazy owner of the strip club where Biel's character dances. Redmayne will portray a mortician who falls in love with her. Kristofferson will play the head of a corporate crime organization who tries to convince his former employee (Liotta) not to seek vengeance on his former co-workers. Whitaker, who also serves as a producer on the film, will play a suicidal ex-priest. Newcomer Alejandro Romero will play a transsexual prostitute who shares an unexpected bond with the priest.
Give the trailer a look. It might tweak your interest. The film opens in 2009 but the actual date has not been determined.
A Christmas Show A Day: 30 Rock
Member of the Boxxet Network of Blogs, Videos and Photos
I guess if you are going to watch a show for the first time, a Christmas show is as good a place as any to start. This is what I did for the TV show "30 Rock", and I'm glad I did. Not only is this a very funny episode, but it actually has a somewhat touching ending.
The plot of the show involves Jack not wanting to spend Christmas with his mother, who is staying at his house after an unfortunate accident (a very funny one, by the way). He decides that on Christmas Eve they are going to put on a live Christmas special. Also, there is a hilarious subplot involving Letters To Santa.
If you have never seen 30 Rock, now is the time to give it a try. You won't be disappointed. This video is courtesy of Hulu.Com.
