Ho, Ho My Lads and welcome to another holiday Spectacular on Anime Was (Not) A Mistake! On this heady, decadently delicious episode, everyone is here! Dan, Jonathan, Gabe, Grant and Heather settle in for a pairing of "classic" holiday movies. First, we reach our peak in the Rankin Bass universe with 1977's The Hobbit. When Bilbo Baggins is hired to burgle an immense treasure from a cat-like dragon an iconic adventure beings. Highlights include babysitting bumbling dwarves, soaring on the wings of eagles, slaying spiders, and one magic ring. Gandalf recommends resting where the thrush knocks and not getting trapped in a wine barrel rolling down the river. Next, on the marquee is a return to Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (1971). In hopes of a lifetime supply of chocolate and a magical factory tour five children receive a golden ticket and jump at the chance! Our podcasting family have a lot of opinions on different candies, how much it would actually take us to go on a tour of a factory and what goes into making a "Wonky" bar. There's no earthly way of knowing, if we are coming or going. All we are certain of is that this is a holiday adventure that you will want to devour, bones and all!
