      Lindsey said that women who spoke out about abuse (metoo) were weak. She sided with Harvey
      Note: she apologized when people got upset and said she didn’t know anything about how they felt bc it never happened to her (this could be denial but regardless, she sucks)
      I do think getting better is good in general though. Addiction is one ugly monster

Addictions shouldn't be looked at punitively, but should be seen as a symptom that needs to be treated. It can be argued that the public's desire to see famous people fall is a large part of the problem that fuels the toxic climate that brings on the implosion of stars, and especially child stars. Yes, she turned to substances, but none of us helped the situation by buying the tabloids and clicking on the articles that cashed in on her difficulties. Hollywood can be a toxic place and is a poor place to grow up.

The last time she acted was doing season two of _Sick Note_ in early 2018 in the UK, which was her acting comeback. Her role in _Among the Shadows_ (2019) was shot in Nov 2015 in Belgium and she also did a short film _Till Human Voices Wake Us_ in early 2015.
      _Falling for Christmas_ was shot between Nov/Dec 2021 in Utah. So it marks almost 4 years since she last acted, exactly 6 years since she last acted in a movie, and its release marks over 13 years since the release of her last romcom _Labor Pains_ in 2009.
      She just filmed her next Netflix movie _Irish Wish_ between Sep/Oct 2022 in Ireland and it's far more elaborate. It's a return to form and involves her character magically swapping lives with her best friend the day before the latter's wedding.

But ofc I just slowly started sliding backwards down the slope and I didn't know how to stop so I slid all the way down the hill we didn't want to go on until I landed in the snow bank and got stuck.

      @sansyeux I disagree- sure they are mostly predictable but the good ones still find ways to keep it fun and engaging- they are full of character development and the conflict exists because of the characters not as a plot device. The leads also have chemistry and you are rooting for them. A great example is one of my favourites What’s your number. We get this people pleasing girl who spends her entire life trying to be perfect for everyone around her- she is never herself in relationships and as a result they never work out. Her “perfect” sister is getting married and her mum is overbearing and Critical (makes sense why she is like she is). Then she reads an article in her favourite magazine that is a Study that says most women who sleep with over 20 people can’t find a husband. She then makes a list and finds out she’s slept with 19. Then decides to track down her ex’s- again it’s how she works her belief is that she needs to fit into this societal ideal of women right and find a husband and her worst fear is never having that. She then makes a deal with her neighbour (aka the love interest) who helps her track down her ex’s and meanwhile they form a relationship. This works because the conflict is rooted in The MC’s desire to not be alone and the love interests fear of commitment. But he also is jealous and acts out because he is afraid she will find better than him. It’s not a random conflict and it also isn’t miscommunication is done out of fear and the mc not really knowing who she is. The character development comes because of this argument and her “perfect boyfriend” who she finds with her first love, who her mum approves of, but realises she hasn’t been herself and around the love interest can be herself.
      Anyways at the end her and the neighbour reunite as she says that she is sorry and that he was right and she can be herself around him. Then he says he’s sorry he’s scared and screwed up. And also realises she does not care about her number and external standards set for her. The fact they are going to Get together is predictable but that’s why I love rom coms- it’s not about how it ends but about the journey it takes them to get there. You are invested because the story is rooted in the characters. The actors have chemistry and it is well written and acted.
      Where as this film is predictable but it’s not enjoyable because the film itself is very surface level, some scenes go on way longer than they should, the jokes feel like they fall flat, it’s all external conflict- it’s not as if with her memory she is able to start again, there was no desire to prove Herself or desire to escape her life- it wasn’t like a she has everything but love and genuine people- and then she finds it. The characters were tolerable but some were super unlikeable and overall I just wasn’t invested.

      @@tdelioncourt1268 Those comparisons are stupid and hurtful the whole Lindsay vs Emma thing! Because obviously Emma got famous much later in life and had a healthier background and family and Lilo grew up in the business and suffered through a lot including addiction it will never be comparable and i'm happy Lindsay gave us iconic movies we still enjoy and she's back doing silly comedies we all grew up watching her in.

    I would love to see Linsay tackle a gritty role. Now she's on the other side of her teen queen phase, I could totally see her giving a chilling "rock-bottom" performance. I know she's had a rough time, but she should channel that life experience for something trully moving.

    I love that in a world where Santa, and therefore magic, is real, the girl wishes for her dad to find happiness with a new woman instead of bringing her dead mom back to life.
    That would've been a way more interesting Christmas miracle.

      Maybe because we know sometimes dead is better. Don't mess with bringing back dead people. It will screw a lot of things up.

    Hey Alex. Professionally, I work with a lot of archaeologists. Technically any structure older than 50yrs is "historic" but quality and uniqueness of the structure within a community helps make it historical

    I'm so glad that Alex hasn't changed over the years. He's one of the last few CZcamsrs to make me laugh out loud and his videos have always maintained their quality.

    In the movie, when she calls Tad 'daddy' istg I was so confused as to how he was her dad for a moment, then I realized there's another meaning for it.

    In reality this lodge would still be busy because not everyone can afford a top-of-the-line, luxury ski resort. Plus the North Star Lodge looks well-maintained and cozy so of course people would be staying.

    My brain went from "is that Sam from Glee" to "wait is that Nick from Bold and the Beautiful!" within the same 3 seconds and I wasn't ready for that in a Lindsay Lohan return flick.

    Alex at the end you LITERALLY summarized the plot of Overboard with Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russel. Which is like pretty problematic but also like 10000% better movie.
