For the most part, I find Xmas movies dreadful.

And they make most of them in Canada.

Have some pride, man!

I do too, but I'm glad they're made.

She jumped ship for GAF. GAF's ratings increased,

You're in trouble when you think that Hallmark is a bit edgy.

So I’ve been told. Probably to take advantage of all the various provincial government grants and subsidies available for film making across the country. I have a friend who lives in Vancouver who has done very well for himself and his family over the years being casted in many of these festive schmaltz pics.

I seem to remember that a lot of movies were shot in Toronto, presumably because they wanted somewhere that looked like New York but with people who were very slightly less obnoxious.

I thought it had something to do with unions and their stranglehold on any movie that gets made in America.

Possible, but less amusing.

I read somewhere that half of US movies are made overseas, with the most popular places being Canada and the UK. Being a citizen of both countries, it can only be a matter of time before they call on my very particular set of skills.

Never heard of GAF until reading this thread.

How do you get access to GAF movies?

Mik

They are the A Team of movies. You know what you're going to get.

Rainman

Don't do it, AX. Don't do it 'ol pal.
Just look at GAF spelled backwards.
It's all a setup to get you to admit you hate GAF's.

Oh ... I thought GAF stands for "Gay As F???"
GAF written backwards might mean "Fabulous As Gay," no?
Gotta think positive, man, it's the spirit of the season.
