as you may know, (since i've only mentioned it here and here) every year on christmas day my family ventures to the cinema (said with a british accent because it sounds fancy, like this cinnneeemahhhhhh) to take in a matinee. it started with patch adams in 1998 and ended with last year's not-so-christmas-appropriate django unchained. and now ...
