The best Christmas movie, ever

Sorry, guys, (isn't it great to be talking about something besides poetry once in a while?)...

LOVE ACTUALLY is the best Christmas movie.

You have a cast with Keira Knightley, Hugh Grant, Billy Bob Thornton, Emma Thompson, Alan Rickman, Liam Neeson, Colin Firth, Laura Linney, Chiwetel Ejiofor, and half the planet.

You have the world's worst wedding DJ. A backpack full of condoms (I'm not kidding). Lobsters and Spider-Man at the Nativity. Denise Richards playing the friendly little sister to Shannon Elizabeth, who is deferred to by Elisha Cuthbert, January Jones and Ivana Milicevic as "the sexy one". We have thighs the size of tree trunks. Airports. The world's most sexually aggressive secretary. A festering turd of a record. The Bay City Rollers used as background music at a funeral. Chocolate biscuits. Hugh Grant one-upping Tom Cruise while dancing through 10 Downing Street after telling off the US President. We have gratuitous nudity. A send-up of Robert Palmer's "Addicted to Love" video. And good advice from your Uncle Billy: "Kids, don't buy drugs. Become a pop singer and they give them to you." And Aurelia in her underwear in a freezing cold pond full of eels.

What could be more Christmas?
