Movies That Are Actually Better Than The Books Collection Preview24 Sep 202600:04:04

Our newest collection is your reminder that adaptation is an art form and that sometimes Hollywood simply understood the assignment.

This collection includes:

Bridget Jones’s Diary

The Wizard of Oz

Jurassic Park

In this episode, we’re joined by Erin Moon as we snake draft the most underrated Christmas rage bait. We’re talking everything from bygone classics like the beloved popcorn tin, to the aggressively mediocre commercialization of ugly sweaters, to traditions that deserve a one-way ticket back to the North Pole (yes, Elf on the Shelf and matching Christmas PJs, we mean you). It’s festive, it’s feisty, and it’s the holiday catharsis you didn’t know you needed.

We’re unpacking everything from the well-intentioned grandparent misses, to passy-aggressy gifts that were really just confrontations in disguise, plus enough underwear to make us question what gift guides the Boomers are reading.
