    Thankfully, 10 years later, they decided to try again, only this time they do it correctly. This one actually had Peter Billingsly come back, as well as the same actors who played Flick and Schwartz, and definitely looks and feels
    more like a feature film compared to this movie. And it didn’t annoyingly reuse most of the gags from the first film, sure they were a few callbacks, but they only lasted a few seconds.
    Hell, It’s even got 78% on RT, and Christmas Story 2 doesn’t even have a score.

    Those feels at the end. This review single handedly made Hyper Fan Girl my favorite of his characters ever. Tamara plays her SO convincingly, she’s both crazy and likable.
    Also it convinced me that a show based around Nostalgia Critic characters could be AMAZING. If it was written like this review was, it could make an amazing web series or etc.
    (It also made me hate that she gets with Devil Boner, since the ending kinda leaves hints that Critic might not mind her coming back into his life. Idk though might just be because of that damn cute cuddle scene.)

      I respectfully disagree . I like that he gives depth to his characters and how well Tamara plays her, but I don't know. Reportedly, Hyper Fan Girl was based on real life female stalkers of Doug's. The ending makes me kind of uncomfortable knowing that. Like "Yeah if you stalk someone enough you too will be rewarded." I mean if the genders were reversed, I don't think a male stalker would be written so compassionately.

    The adorable couch scene is giving me flashbacks to a few years ago when a girl I liked back then used to put her head on my shoulder when we watched movies together.
    I never did tell her that I had feelings for her out of the fear of rejection or of ruining what I thought we had. While part of me is happy that I didn't, because I was very emotionally unstable after having gotten out of a long term relationship only a few months before that, and I was handling it so bad that if my feelings had been reciprocated, I wouldn't have matured as a person between then and now, I still can't shake the feeling of regret that I never did, and the curiosity of what it might have led to.
    It's a very depressing kind of nostalgia, when fond memories are ruined by the concept of "what if," instead of just being appreciated for what they are; just small pockets of time that should be appreciated solely for the warmth and euphoria they made you feel, and shouldn't always need to be put into perspective by rationality.
    It makes me happy, but it also makes me want to punch myself in the face, and sometimes it even makes me want to die, but these wildly varying feelings almost makes me appreciate the moments even more just because of how alive it makes me feel to have so strong emotions about something in life. Regret is a hard feeling to handle, but it might make you appreciate the rest of your life more, when you have a sense of perspective of how good and bad things can be at their very extremes.
    I apologise if this is depressing and edgy, but I'd like to know if I'm thinking about this right, or if my emotions are getting in the way of my rationality in an unhealthy way.

      Well, the thing is...this isn't the first "sequel". There were other adaptations of Shepherd's writings. A couple of these were shown on PBS a few years after ACS (but PBS did other adaptations even before ACS...including a much earlier "leg lamp" scene) and then there's My Summer Story/It Runs In The Family, with Kieran Culkin and Charles Grodin. But all of these were direct adaptations of Jean Shepherd's original stories, with his narration. (My Summer Story featured one of my personal favorites--the Dish Night movie theater fiasco and the Gravy Boat riot.) This doesn't have a thing to do with a word Jean Shepherd wrote--it just FEELS phony.

    Man I can’t tell you how long I was waiting for a part 2 to A Christmas Story, I remember that cliffhanger ending like it was yesterday, where during his sleeping Ralphie’s window blew open, letting the freezing cold into his room, next thing he knew he woke up in a different looking bedroom, then when his mother came in and told him where he was he said “Where am I really? That flat rectangular radio-like device, it didn’t exist yesterday, now I’m gonna ask you again, where am I?” Then when his mom didn’t answer he ran out of his room and around him was a new, technologically advanced city, he heard a voice behind him, which turned out to be a teenage version of Flick, and he said to him “You’ve been asleep Ralphie, for almost 9 years”

      Santa Christ Santa Christ we all love Santa Christ, he is Santa and Jesus God damn its Santa Christ. He atoned for all our sins but he also likes pancakes, he saves puppies from a fire and he also likes pancakes. He played base for Aerosmith, reads to sick orphans too, he goes surfing in space, and makes really good Fondue. He shoots lasers from his eyes and heal curtains for free, he fights monsters for fun and hangs out with Mr. T. Santa Christ, Santa Christ, Santa Christ, Santa Christ, you are the best man we love you Santa Christ.

    I know others have already said it, but this episode really is one of Tamara's best. She's really funny and can excellently portray the emotions necessary to the scene. Obviously, the Nostalgia Critic won't last forever - I hope that Tamara continues to be in acting roles afterwards once it's done. Or whenever she moves on. Whatever comes first.
