    Amy: "Um actually...Hogswatch is not unique to Discworld..."
    Trapp: "That's correct!"
    Amy: "...What?"
    I love moments like that, pulling the right answer out of literally nowhere.

    Um actually, The tradition of Ded Moroz is mostly spread in East Slavic countries and is an important part of Russian culture. Although at the beginning of the Soviet era communist authorities banned Ded Moroz he soon became an important part of the Soviet culture.

    RE: Galaxy Quest, um actually, it IS very different. Since the device resets the ship to a state 13 seconds ago instead of rewinding time, it means everything outside the ship still advances in regular time. Something that leaves the ship would still exist outside the ship (whether weapon fire, a transmission, or maybe even teleported crewmates). So does that mean if someone beams off the ship prior to the device's activation, the ship's molecules would reform a version of them that's still on the ship, creating a copy? We'll have to convince them to make a Galaxy Quest II (and make that the plot) to find out, I guess.

    The director of Nightmare Before Christmas said "It's definitely a Halloween movie" and the release date was October 29th. Therefore, Nightmare Before Christmas is 100% a Halloween movie.

    At 27:40, Trapp mimes the motion of easing a videotape into a VCR and it's wonderful. I forgot that I remember that motion as a core memory.

    Um actually, Frost Gigas is actually also called Santa Claus. When you defeat him, he turns back inte the classic Santa Claus. He had been turned into this ice monster by by the Fire Seed (go figure), which he stole in order to grow a giant christmas tree so children would believe him again.

    Mrs Claus is still in the third "The Santa Clause" movie. She's pregnant with Tim Allen's child.
    Also, there is a holiday special, called "The Year Without a Santa Claus" where Mrs. Claus tries to take over from Santa, who tries to cancel Christmas (because he totally has the authority to cancel the celebration of Christ's birth/the winter solstice) because he's tired, and sick, and wants a vacation (as if most of his year isn't already a vacation). The special is most well known for the Miser brothers (Snow Miser and Heat Miser). A clip of Snow Miser appears in the movie "Batman and Robin", where Mr. Freeze is forcing his henchmen to sing the Snow Miser song.

      There is also the Whoopi Goldberg Santa Claus movie "Call Me Claus" in which Whoopi becomes Santa. So you have a single female Santa. Who I suppose could eventually meet and marry a "Mr. Clause" if she wanted.

      Um, actually, he spends most of the year working on making toys and hasn't had a day off in years. Santa was not cancelling the religious kind of Christmas, but rather the gift-giving bit because in their universe he actually exists and delivers the presents.

    Gutes always sits... and lets the other two contestants guess... and then he says the exact right answer (and clearly knows it). So it just takes him a while to retrieve it? Or he likes to watch the others flail? Or - the most badass possibility - he’s such a god at this that he has to show restraint
