Elf (2003)

Smoking: Graffiti

Hands down my favorite Will Ferrell movie. And in honor of the season here we are 😊

Definitely a lot of product placement in this movie. Which if you don’t know is a Marketing term and how a lot of movies and tv shows make money to support their creation. We had Bob the Builder doll, Mr. Potato Head, Barbie and Etch-a-Sketch all with in the first 3 minutes of the movies. Wonder how much they paid for that 🤔

We have poor little Orphan Buddy who sees a teddy and decides to go for a late-night crawl and ends up traveling around the world and ends up back at the North Pole.

We have the wonderful Bob Newhart playing his adoptive father. When they are in class, I don’t understand why he’s in the front row. He’s so tall, he can see from the back, I’m sure.

I totally say Cotton-Headed-Ninny-Muggins in a good number of conversations. I would hate to be the Jack in the Box toy tester. Talk about ANXIETY!!!!

I wonder how much back and neck pain doing all of these scenes with having to hunch down. I like how they have some of the characters based off of the old Rudolf Claymation movie.

How is his outfit able to keep him that warm? I mean he traveled through the snow-covered mountains; you know that shits cold, and he’s got on leggings and an elf hat. It’s not free candy!!! 🤢

Meeting his father. James Caan, for the first time. Christmas Gram time! His awkward song “Guess what? I love you, I love you, I love you”

I love watching him go up the elevator 😂 "it's a Christmas Tree"

Enter the love interest, Zooey Deschanel. “Best way to spread Christmas Cheer, is to sing loud for all to hear.”

I love that Mary Steenburgen is in this movie. She is also in another one of my favorite WF movies, Step Brothers. “You can call me night hawk.” Tell me why his name tag says Wanda, but in the line up on IMDB he’s named, Gimbel’s Manager 🤔 wonder if it was a recast at the last minute?

Faizon Love is another of my favorites. But from a totally different movie. The Replacements. Probably the only football movie I like.

The gif I use the most is “You sit on a thrown of lies.” Mainly to my friend Heather 🤣 when I’m teasing her about something. Or calling her a cheater because of a card game 😂

I wonder how that candy spaghetti tasted. I half want to try it and half want to throw up 🤢

I swear he has some kind of ADD, maybe its all that sugar 🤣

There is NO WAY Mark Acheson was 26 years old at the time of this 😂 he looks like he’s at least 40 something.

Enter Peter Dinklage, “the elf” that’s too far from the North Pole for WF. I love when he climbs on the table and just attacks him 🤣

Make the Buddy sighting seem like he’s bigfoot 😂 I swear this movie ☠️

And what saves the day? None other than ZD “the best way to spread Christmas Cheer is singing loud for all to hear.”

And here’s the end of the movie. Thanks for reading this weeks.

Happy Holidays!

Toke on!
