I always considered Jingle all the Way being one of those fun, dumb 90s movies. It’s dripping in 90s cheese, and if you can’t laugh at Arnie beating up a warehouse full of scummy Santa’s, you just can’t laugh.
@@I_Am_The_Social_Reject yeah , individual opinion is always the best,you enjoy it good for you ,they didn't enjoy it ,let them be ,it doesn't effect our own opinion :)
The next door neighbor Ted always cracks me up, he’s probably my favorite character 😄 “Ted, what the hell are you doing in my house!?”😂 I watch this movie probably every couple years, on Christmas 👍
They could remake it. Arnold’s character is smart and orders it online only for the shipment to get robbed by parents desperately looking for Turboman toys resulting in him having to go into the chaotic world of in person toy shopping to try and find it
My favorite thing about JotW is that for years after the fact on Late Night with Conan O'Brien, Arnold would come on the TV monitor and continue to plug this movie over and over again
Same, I saw it as a child without social media and it was enjoyable and now it has a place as a childhood memory even if it’s not great. I always cherish this movie and going with my dad :)
I rented this back in the days of Blockbuster. It really wasn't bad at all. Like James says, it was kind of like a live-action cartoon, completely over-the-top and not even trying to take itself seriously. Schwarzenegger and Sinbad actually had some pretty good synergy together. And as someone who spent ten years working in retail, I can relate to the resentment of how overcommercialized the holiday was (and still is).
Jake Lloyd was also two different characters in The Pretender as a dead pilot's son and Young Angelo. It would have been nice if people would have just left him alone. He's gotten into trouble with the law and suffers from schizophrenia because of his abuse at the hands of Star Wars "fans." The backlash from his Star Wars role basically ruined his life.
Jake Lloyd's mental health suffered a great deal from the Phantom Menace fallout, I agree. Do you know if schizophrenia has environmental triggers though? Environment can certainly make it worse, but I thought it was largely from heredity and mutation.
@@DragonTigerBoss I don't know if other, pre-existing causes also need to be present, but I do know that schizophrenia can be at least partially caused by environmental triggers.
Jingle all the way was one of those movies that I would just watch on repeat as a kid. I can remember watching all the way through it, then as soon as the tape finished rewinding and popped out of the VCR I would walk over and push it back in. I made my parents so sick of it, they actually still bring it up sometimes. XD
I think it was pure genius to pair up Arnold and SINBAD! How could anyone have guessed that two actors that were so polar opposite could be so much fun in a movie. I love it.
I never thought Jingle all the Way was even bad at all, it's one of my favourite Christmas films. It has a good moral which people can follow too: "Don't leave Christmas shopping until the last second"
They could have cartoons where guns get brought into a movie theater. I remember watching an episode of the Disney afternoon cartoon Darkwing Duck as a kid where NegaDuck pulls out a gun in the theater. I'm pretty sure that would be banned nowadays. This was back when people didn't go crazy when real guns appeared in cartoons.
The 90's also seemed to have this weird obsession with marital infidelity jokes and subplots in kid's movies, too. I remember there was one with Halle Berry in the live action Flintstones, as well as a joke about a guy's secretary sitting in his lap in the opening scene of The Santa Clause. The 90's were wild, man.
@@DragnSly The 90's were great though. That's why they're rebooting all the TV shows that were popular in the 90's and also Seinfeld reruns will be airing until the end of the world.
@@seanmichaels8060 it was also back when people just decided to ignore certain problems instead of dealing with them head on. I say this as a person who grew up in the 90s.
There are people who don't like Jingle All The Way? It's maybe my favorite Christmas movie! It's intentionally overly goofy, full of hilarious moments and lots of heart. People don't seem to understand the whole "silly on purpose" genre, like this or Pixels or a few other good movies
iJerseyDevil I hate this movie. I get that it was supposed to be silly on purpose, and I totally understand that genre, I’m a huge fan of movies like Airplane!, Young Frankenstein, and The Naked Gun. Those movies are hilariously silly, but they work for me because they exhibit a surreal balance between taking themselves seriously, and then suddenly turning in the silly to make you suddenly realize how silly what they are spoofing is. This movie never takes itself seriously enough to justify its sudden silliness, it’s like a cartoon. A bad cartoon. Silly throughout with no consistent logic or respect for reality.
@Dan S Well, I don't agree with his OPINION but he's got a point in his description, and really it all comes down to...a matter of taste, OPINION actually. Yours - ours - differs from his (though I understand and consider those movies [mentioned by *Nick Manzo* ] more cerebrally complex, _Jingle All The Way_ is consciously more silly, and kid-friendly with the more mindless gags and slapstick.) *Still, each of us has an OPINION,* and you just shat on his, insulting him furthermore. Come on dude! - Right before Christmas, EVEN on the internet?! Don't be rude, or you'll witness Santa's _Slay_ :P I'd like to be the one "to make you suddenly realize how silly" what people arguing over difference of opinion really is! It's childish - if anything, people could learn from one another's experience and perspective. FACTS have to be correct, opinions DON'T. Anyway, Happy Holidays
I think if you grew up with jingle all the way you find it ok, if you had to watch it as a critic there is less nostalgia. Its an ok movie of its time, nothing ground breaking, i have watched it a few times as a kid, i would say low replay value.
I loved watching this on Cartoon Network back in 2012. It was hilarious! Especially because of how hard the Dad tried to support his son as much as possible.
LOL xD Actually I was watching through the movie, and I think at one point Merlin corrects Howard as he's leaving the diner and says it's an action figure. o: I could have that wrong though. EDIT: oops, Myron, not Merlin xD
I think this is something that most parents from this era would do, particularly mothers. I believe they call them "dolls" probably because that's what mothers had when they were kids, and I believe it's only been since around the 70's / 80's when companies started making "action figures" for boys (and now man babies) when in the past they would have Tonka Trucks, toy guns and things like that. I could be totally wrong, though.. just some speculation :-)
*NOW!!! PUT IT DOWN!!! PUT THAT PUT THAT COOKIE PUT THAT PUT THAT COOKIE PUT THAT PUT THAT COOKIE PUT THAT PUT THAT PUT THAT PUT THAT COOKIE DOWN!!!* @@MegaManXPoweredUp
I thought this movie definitely had some great scenes. I've enjoyed Sinbad since his standup days. Even in unnecessary roughness. Phil is wonderful as always. Absolutely underrated. I wouldn't call it great, but it's good for sure.
I honestly never hear anyone say anything bad about Jingle All The Way. Anyone who takes it seriously enough to pick out its flaws and find a million reasons to criticize it, are not people I want in my life. It's not supposed to be thought of as a brilliant work of art. It's a dumb but hilarious and entertaining Christmas movie that never gets old. I loved it as a kid, and I still love it as an adult.
Just look up the IMDb score or average user rating on Letterboxd, people really seem to hate the movie for some reason... I honestly don't get it, it's targeted at kids and I utterly loved it in my childhood. So it did everything right...
There is one good scene in the extended cut when Sinbad is actually listing all the guns on the Johnny 7 OMA. It's the one scene I wish they didn't cut.
I remember watching this as a kid. Ever since I have a sweet spot for this film. Rewatched it a few years back, and now it’s a holiday tradition to watch every December. I like that it tackles last minute shoppings, and the desperation of traveling across all town, looking for a specific toy/gift; a situation a lot of us have been in
I honestly don't understand why this movie gets such a bad rap. There is NOTHING wrong with this movie, as far as Christmas movies go. Maybe Jake Lloyd could've been better and Sinbad is Sinbad, but Jake was a little kid and Sinbad is Sinbad. I think people just confuse the definitions of "bad movie" and "movie I don't like" The movie had everything a Christmas movie should have. A "Christmas feel" throughout, satirization of Christmas commercialization, "bad santas", and even a fight scene against the bad santas. It has learned lessons, a look at Christmas through the eyes of both children and adults. It even includes fairly original jokes, like a false "Christmas bomb" sent through the mail which turns out to be a real bomb. The movie even has a call back to Conan, when Arnold knocks out a reindeer, instead of a camel. He even later shares some beer with said reindeer. It is all set to the tone of an epic Christmas quest . . . STOP HATING ON JUNGLE ALL THE WAY!!
I really enjoyed this movie, but then again I was a kid not really paying attention to the bad things about the movie or it's sillyness. And if I rewatch it today it still makes me laugh.
I haven't considered this a bad movie in years. So many lines of dialogue in this move are hilarious with the phone call about cookies being the highest of quality.
Please do a video on Mr. Nanny I immediately thought of it at the start of the video and also at the end. The kids room in mr nanny was Absolutely incredible. Suburban commando is another classic of the 90’s
Review the 90s Christmas movie starring Nicolas Cage, Dana Carvey and Jon Lovitz called Trapped in Paradise(1994) ....such an underrated Christmas movie that not alot of people know about
Have you guys heard of the band, Austrian Death Machine? They make death metal songs out of Arnold's quotes including the cookies line. And no mention of Jamie = young Anakin?
I know it's nothing to do with the movie, but I just wanted to say I really love how you guys handle your sponsors. Ye make it super clear, and try to have fun with it. Wish more UA-camrs could be as good.
I love AVGN and I agree it's a hit or miss recently. I meant that James & Mike Mondays is stale, Board James ended, Monster Madness is gone (this year it was just a marathon, which I could prepare myself with a UA-cam playlist) but rental reviews is fresh and funny.
I love that you can make your basement or wherever your movie collection is at look like a passable rental store so awesome, I can only imagine if you were to collect legos the kind of display you could come up with!
By far. Kranks is so bad I saw the whole movie was on this site like so many other bad movies neither UA-cam staff or production company even cares. Right up there with _Home Alone 4_ ...which I couldn't make past the 10 minute mark. -_-
Christmas with the Kranks is on all the time. You'd think no one knows there are other Tim Allen Christmas movies. Now on FreeForm--24 hours of The Santa Clause 3.....never mind.
My only real problem with Christmas with the Kranks was Austin Pendleton as Santa Claus. David Huddleston and Sir Richard Attenborough were among the best actors to play Santa. The Kranks movie had the opposite end of the spectrum.
Someone's mom fighting someone over a toy at Christmas? Heck, growing up here in wv, as a teenager, i witnessed my mom wanting to fight a guy at krogers because he cut her off in a aisle with a buggy.
I LOVE this movie! This is a GOOD comedy movie. It satirizes commercialism and Christmas shopping. All the actors give good performances. It's heartwarming. Great quick pace. If STUPID CRITICS never called this movie "dumb" or "campy" or "silly", everyone would see it for what it truly is. A CLASSIC!
I agree, I saw this movie in my local theatre in 1996 and I loved it. I still enjoy watching this movie every year at Christmas time. The parade scene is one of my favorite parts of the movie. It was amazing seeing all of those childhood fictional characters again, especially seeing Leonardo from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. I even enjoyed the extended cut, it was really funny seeing Sinbad talk about the Johnny Seven O.M.A. gun in detail and seeing Arnold trying to figure how to tell his wife why he did not a Turbo Man, with the tow truck driver.
The stupidest Xmas movie is the star wars. Very creepy and will give any 70s and 80s kid nightmares for years scaring him for life and has to get therapy in his adulthood to try to fix his warped mind! This movie probably made a few future serial killers!
This movie is awesome. As a young man i can admit i never felt close to my father as a youngling but this movie actually made me think a-lot about things my father may do for me even if i wasn’t aware of them. Even without the toy plot

Bad!? This is my favorite "modern" Christmas movie
I'm actually shocked to learn that the Johnny Seven OMA gun was actually a real toy.
I really enjoyed this movie, but then again I was a kid not really paying attention to the bad things about the movie or it's sillyness. And if I rewatch it today it still makes me laugh.
I heard a narration of “Cat in the Hat” recited in a dark, serious tone with horror music in the background, and it makes a great horror story.
Aw, I miss Phil Hartman.
9:06 "Damn it, Jerry!"
HAHAHA THAT LAUGHTER
Never noticed Chris Parnell was in JotW
Y’all should review Scrooged next.
My grandpa, extremely strict, watched this movie like 90 times.
Same
jingle all the way was THE christmas movie for me growing up in the 90s along with Christmas Vacation
Christmas vacation is probably my fave
Fugiwaratofu860 I agree but just add The Santa Clause.
"Have some Non-Alcoholic Eggnog".
This is a sick world we’re living in, sick people.
*GOD BLESS THIS MESS*
Dylan Tennant I got that reference
No Jingle All the Way movie rental at Cinemassacre Video? I guess I'll have to go to Big Choice Video! 😂
One of the few channels where i actually rewatch vids.
I haven't considered this a bad movie in years. So many lines of dialogue in this move are hilarious with the phone call about cookies being the highest of quality.
We watch this every year, it's just dumb fun. My mom loves Myron's line "You too, Barnaby Jones!", followed by that "I'm gonna do it!" face.
Can’t go a Christmas without it
It's cheesy, crazy , improbable, impossible, ludicrous and ...... I love it. Guiltiest pleasure 😋
Please do a video on Mr. Nanny
I immediately thought of it at the start of the video and also at the end.
The kids room in mr nanny was Absolutely incredible. Suburban commando is another classic of the 90’s
Merry Christmas AVGN
Merry Christmas James!!! And everyone love you guys !!
The sequel’s really shit, because its unfunny, has little to do with the original, and stars the LJN of comedy sequels Larry the Cable Guy!
@@Radeo Can I kill myself?
I'll put it this way. I fell asleep watching Kindergarten Cop 2, but actually finished Jingle All the Way 2. :)
@Social Crime Media naw, he does shit stand up too.
theres a sequel wtf?
Review the 90s Christmas movie starring Nicolas Cage, Dana Carvey and Jon Lovitz called Trapped in Paradise(1994) ....such an underrated Christmas movie that not alot of people know about
Mannn I haven't seen that in forever.
Comedy Central had like a two year period where they played it ALL the time.
That movie is great.
I had it on VHS and watched it a lot. Idk how I forgot about it until now, need to buy it again.
Do not remember this one. Will check it out thanks.
I am soo homesick to the 90's. James's videos are the only thing that brings me back to that time.
Have you guys heard of the band, Austrian Death Machine? They make death metal songs out of Arnold's quotes including the cookies line.
And no mention of Jamie = young Anakin?
This film has been a Christmas classic for 20 years and anyone that disagrees with that is crazy. Comedy gold.
I know it's nothing to do with the movie, but I just wanted to say I really love how you guys handle your sponsors. Ye make it super clear, and try to have fun with it. Wish more UA-camrs could be as good.
Cinemassacre reinvented itself with the rental series. It's really good 😊
Agreed I love this series
Katarzyna Gauza disagree for me avgn is still his best work. Unfortunately even that has mellowed out James.
I love AVGN and I agree it's a hit or miss recently. I meant that James & Mike Mondays is stale, Board James ended, Monster Madness is gone (this year it was just a marathon, which I could prepare myself with a UA-cam playlist) but rental reviews is fresh and funny.
I have a request for Rental Review. You guys HAVE to do The Last Dragon, a stone cold ‘80s classic.
I love that you can make your basement or wherever your movie collection is at look like a passable rental store so awesome, I can only imagine if you were to collect legos the kind of display you could come up with!
Still not as bad as Christmas with the cranks.
By far. Kranks is so bad I saw the whole movie was on this site like so many other bad movies neither UA-cam staff or production company even cares. Right up there with _Home Alone 4_ ...which I couldn't make past the 10 minute mark. -_-
Christmas with the Kranks is on all the time. You'd think no one knows there are other Tim Allen Christmas movies.
Now on FreeForm--24 hours of The Santa Clause 3.....never mind.
Its not bad at all.
My only real problem with Christmas with the Kranks was Austin Pendleton as Santa Claus. David Huddleston and Sir Richard Attenborough were among the best actors to play Santa. The Kranks movie had the opposite end of the spectrum.
I didn't find it all that bad. It's your typical holiday fluff.....but as a fan of Sinbad and Phil hartman i enjoyed this and "Houseguest"
She's a Brick...Howwsss
I love Houseguest so much.
Someone's mom fighting someone over a toy at Christmas? Heck, growing up here in wv, as a teenager, i witnessed my mom wanting to fight a guy at krogers because he cut her off in a aisle with a buggy.
People are just insane at this time of year. Everything has gone commercial.
Thank you for saying "buggy". people look at me weird for not saying "shopping cart". I grew up saying buggy.
@@52Tmacfan it will always be buggy. Lol
This movie also featured The Big Show from WWE/WWF, as well.
At the time he was making this movie, he was under contract with WCW.
Where did you find the VHS effect?
I LOVE this movie! This is a GOOD comedy movie. It satirizes commercialism and Christmas shopping. All the actors give good performances. It's heartwarming. Great quick pace. If STUPID CRITICS never called this movie "dumb" or "campy" or "silly", everyone would see it for what it truly is. A CLASSIC!
I agree, I saw this movie in my local theatre in 1996 and I loved it. I still enjoy watching this movie every year at Christmas time. The parade scene is one of my favorite parts of the movie. It was amazing seeing all of those childhood fictional characters again, especially seeing Leonardo from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
I even enjoyed the extended cut, it was really funny seeing Sinbad talk about the Johnny Seven O.M.A. gun in detail and seeing Arnold trying to figure how to tell his wife why he did not a Turbo Man, with the tow truck driver.
I thought Sinbad and Arnold's relationship was very Looney Tunes.
You should do a list of Christmas movies you don't realize are Christmas movies. Like Gremlins and Die hard.
Jaws the revenge!!!!!
Lethal Weapon, Vice Versa, Trading Places, Batman Returns
I second this.
Iron Man 3.
The stupidest Xmas movie is the star wars. Very creepy and will give any 70s and 80s kid nightmares for years scaring him for life and has to get therapy in his adulthood to try to fix his warped mind! This movie probably made a few future serial killers!
This movie is awesome. As a young man i can admit i never felt close to my father as a youngling but this movie actually made me think a-lot about things my father may do for me even if i wasn’t aware of them. Even without the toy plot
Hey random person scrolling down the comments..
Have an excellent day :)
You too, other random person i will sadly never meet in real life!
Thanks man you too
GuelphRacing you are so cool!
Thanks man I really needed that today
GuelphRacing I will thanks
James' grandma sounds like she was a badass.
Jingle All The Way rules
It's not christmas until ou see Arnold trying to get a TurboMan
It was the beginning of Arnie's real downward spiral. Great to see Phil Hartman here though. "Hi I'm Troy McClure"
I did not know that was Big Show, I thought it was Brad Garrett. Anyway, are you doing "A Christmas Story"?
"My son want every movie the big show has been in you got to help me" i didnt know i was your son
