'Santa Claus: the Movie' is a sprawling retelling of the legend of Santa Claus, with a subplot that involved a renegade elf named Patch who hooks up with a unscrupulous toy manufacturer before re-discovering the meaning of Christmas. Despite its big budget and the star power of Dudley Moore, who passed away in 2002, the 1985 film was a box office flop. Nevertheless, it makes its way around at Chri

Here. Have these Christmas gifs. Consider it a gift. Or forget we made that terrible joke. Your choice. Happy Holidays!

Yes, it's true we're borderline obsessed with dressing up our dogs (and any other animal for that matter), from the hilarious for Halloween to festive garb for Christmastime. But can you blame us? Pets are, like, 10,000 times cuter when clothing is involved. While we're usually to blame for starting up said shenanigans, recently we've seen something strange happening-- animals are beginning to get

Happy December 21st, ladies and gents! It's a fine, fine day due to three very important factors-- the world hasn't ended yet and it's Friday. Jackpot! What makes today even greater though is that it's the Winter Solstice, AKA the time when days finally start getting longer. It's exciting, trust us.

In England, many Druids celebrate the longest night of the year by conducting a ritual at Stonehenge. While it is the first day of Winter, many of the modern-day Druids are celebrating the fact that the days will get longer until the Summer Solstice in 2013.

So Friday, December 21 is maaaaaaaybe going to be the apocalypse because a really old calendar ran out of space. It's already tomorrow in Australia, and people are reporting that it's fine. Of course other people are pointing out that the ancient Mayans weren't really operating on Greenwich Mean Time, so maybe Australia should just cool their jets. Some of us are calmly stuffing as much clothing a

Professional wrestlers may seem like tough guys, but underneath their shiny spandex outfits and long, flowing hair (clearly a sign of ultimate masculinity), they have hearts of gold. Daniel Bryan, for example, recently met with a seven-year-old boy who has had brain cancer for almost four years, and says he's Bryan's biggest fan. It's okay if you need to go grab some Kleenex before you look at the

For most of the year, Mary Christmas' name causes snickers. Then, when the calender turns into December, it can just be confusing.

Deviant Art user and nerd extraordinaire Miguel Lokia took the idea of house words and sigils from 'Game of Thrones' and applied it to other favorite pop culture characters. From Bruce Wayne to the Hulk, these are our five favorite posters from the set.

Fine. Time magazine was right -- Barack Obama is the Person of the Year. We can't argue with this photo, which was taken back in October.

The origins of 'The Nightmare Before Christmas' were in a poem Tim Burton wrote in 1982. Disney became interested in the tale about a skeleton from a place called Halloween Town who tries to take over Christmas, but worried that the plot was "too dark and scary" for little kids.

Despite 4 Chan's successful attempt at getting Kim Jong-un to win the most votes for Time magazine's Person of the Year, the magazine is going with President Obama. Again. Sheesh, don't pick the dictator everybody voted for, but that doesn't mean you have to pick somebody who's already won. Here are five other perfectly viable candidates, in our opinion. Maybe we should start a campaign next year.

We love Santa. We really do! He's probably the coolest old guy we know, spending his life making presents, managing elves and eating cookies. Truth be told, we're sort of jealous. The jolly old guy usually looks bright and cheery and not all that scary, which is yet another reason we're fans.

We're hard pressed to think of a better way to showcase the two main genres of reality television than this side-by-side comparison of the Thompson (of 'Here Comes Honey Boo Boo' fame) and the Kardashian families' Christmas cards.

Aww man! We've been sucked in again. It's another edition of animals in costumes, but we swear it's way worth your time. Why? Well, because there are few things more adorable than dressing up our dogs and cats in holiday garb and showing them off on the Web. We're positive they love it! (Maybe.)
