So I just watched Thomas Kinkade's Christmas Cottage. Yes, you may laugh at me.

At first it was just for the indescribable adorableness that is Jared Padalecki in a wardrobe consisting entirely of wooly hats and knit scarves (why yes, I am shallow), but it turned out to be a much better movie than I was expecting. It's the kind of movie that kinda feels like a 1.5-hour-long Christmas card straight out of Hallmark, but it makes you feel so warm and fuzzy inside that you don't even care.

Although I gotta say, if anyone else had been playing the lead role, I don't know that I would've been able to buy it. Jared gets to use the Puppy Eyes of Doom to brilliant effect here. And I ended up spending the last fifteen minutes or so embarrassingly teary-eyed. Damn adorable man and his damn awesome acting.

So. My mortifying movie preferences aside, tomorrow is Christmas Eve, y'all! Everyone finished their shopping and/or fics? Any super special awesome plans? Spill~

Thomas Kinkade wrote a movie/TV movie? Isn't he an artist, or am I thinking of a different Kinkade? Anyway, Merry Christmas!

And devotedtodreams, I love your userpic! I have the fanart it's from, and it's awesome.

Yeah, the artist. He self-produced an autobiographical movie, apparently. It took me like 5 minutes to realize Padalecki was playing that Thomas Kinkade...fail. xD

Merry Christmas~!!
