Bad Santa infographic

After recording the Christmas Movies episode of Flix of Doom earlier this month, I found out that my mother's favorite Christmas movie is Bad Santa. Yes, the movie starring Billy Bob Thornton.

Am I little bit disturbed by this? Sure, but hey, plenty of people have told me it's a cool movie, so I guess I'd better get around to checking it out soon.

Apparently, Mama's not the only fan of Bad Santa. The folks over at LocateTV have created a fun Christmas-themed infographic called "Bad Santa" which has some behind-the-scenes trivia of on some of the most popular Christmas films, including Bad Santa, It's A Wonderful Life, Elf, and more.

Bon Jovi - Star Wars Christmas Album

Jon Bon Jovi.

He's a huge star now, but back before he got his big break in the music industry in the early 1980s, the singer was sweeping floors for cash at his cousin's recording studio, where they just so happened to be making Christmas In The Stars: Star Wars Christmas Album. During the making of the album, the young Bon Jovi got a chance to make his first professional recording on the song, "R2-D2 We Wish You A Merry Christmas."

Listen to the song here below. It's SO good. Trust me, just one listen and you will not only love it, you won't be able to stop listening to it. R2-D2 makes an appearance on the track, as does Anthony Daniels as C-3PO [...]
