Comedian Don McMillan "cracks the code" for every Hallmark channel Christmas movie ever.
Unfortunately, he restricted it to movies made for and shown on the Hallmark channel. I don't think "Die Hard" would fit into his matrix!

About 15 years ago, I was leaving the seismic crew via a Chinese fishing boat. The "entertainment center" was a laserdisc player. The single disc had a lot of Burmese movies, all with the same plot.

Oh wait, she does love me.

Soon with AI you'll be able to fill in the categories and software will generate a movie for you.

ReplyDeleteI beg to differ, Mr. Grant: in Die Hard, a cynical workaholic husband travels across the country to reconnect with his estranged family during the holidays. How many Hallmark movies have that exact plot?
ReplyDeleteAs stereotyped as a “hero’s journey” movie or Marvel film.
ReplyDeleteWhy couldn't we do a Sci-Fi variant? Think of a space opera with a Hallmark theme at Christmas. The USS Enterprise or perhaps an Empire Battlecruiser is in orbit above a Christmas planet - same proven plot with something that's not quite a dog which unites human and alien in a chaste and heartwarming joining.
