Episode 497: Red One, Hot Frosty, Movie News LIVE!

We never disagree this much, but two new Christmas movies have inspired very different opinions from us on the latest episode of Breakfast All Day. First, we review "Red One," starring Dwayne Johnson and Chris Evans as the only two people on the planet who can save Santa Claus (J.K. Simmons) when he's kidnapped. This is a $250 million blockbuster featuring major, A-list stars, but it's not exactly shaping up to be a huge hit. Do you plan on seeing it? Let us know. It's in theaters now. Then, we review the knowingly absurd Netflix Christmas comedy "Hot Frosty." Dustin Milligan stars as a snowman who comes to life in the form of a hunky handyman when a widow (holiday movie veteran Lacey Chabert) wraps a red scarf around his neck. One of us liked this much more than the other, and it may surprise you. Craig Robinson and Joe Lo Truglio co-star. Streaming now. Finally, in our weekly Movie News LIVE!, we discuss the new "Mission: Impossible" trailer, Conan O'Brien hosting the 2025 Oscars, why we left Twitter, where we were on Y2K and much more.
