X-E’s 2004 Christmas Season has begun!

It's here, it's here, it's finally here! For those with a sour cache, yes, X-E is in it's 2004 Christmas Season, celebrating the launch of the third annual X-Entertainment Advent Calendar, and the first annual X-Entertainment Advert Calendar! Mare Winningham returns to X-E over on the Advent, while Christmas-themed commercials of the past are posted everyday until Christmas over on the Advert. I'd like to thank my good friend Brian Jacks for slaving over the new design for us and putting up with my shit, along with Jaime and Mike, who also helped make this all possible. Oh, and even if you've seen it already, you may wanna check out the new Christmas Jukebox one more time. X-E mixmaker, Tummi, has been kind enough to reorganize the files, fix the volumes, and add a few more choice selections -- including the Del Rubio Triplets' classic rendition of "Winter Wonderland" from Pee-wee's Christmas Special. There is sooo much more to come, but sadly, I've gotta go. Discuss, be merry. The fun really begins next week!

Love the design, Matt. Especially Krang in a Santa hat :)

X-E Christmas celebration!

THE MADNESS BEGINS!

I hope Mare becomes evil again, but even if she doesn’t, the stormtrooper duo is awesome.

BTW, any plans for other familiar figures to stop by as the month goes on?

People seem to forget that Gremlins is a Christmas movie. But it is.

Because it’s either a Christmas movie or a horror movie – except that it’s really not that scary (except if you’re 6 years old)

My first X-E Christmas too! Playmobile rules! They must be from Outer Space!

Chestnuts roasted by Pat @ 12/02/2004 10:36 PM

Finally! My first X-E Christmas! This is what I’ve been waiting for all year long, and for the first time in five years, I’m actually excited about Christmas! And the site looks great!

Whoo-hoo! My 2nd X-E Christmas…

Lego Stormies rock!

All RIGHT! The beginning of another great Christmas advent calender…with Stormtroopers! This is gonna be the best Christmas ever. Mare Winningham, "Star Wars" Legos, fireplaces, and Engergizer batteries. It’s awesome already, and we’re only at the third day of the month.

Nice job on the Christmas design, too, Matt and company. I especially like the icons and the "stickers" on the Trapper Keeper/Blog. :)

Love it, love it, love it!

I love how Mare’s first words are a Tim Curry/Worst Witch quote.

Chestnuts roasted by John @ 12/02/2004 10:47 PM

Matt you are too good to us. Also I don’t know if you saw this or not, but the ghost of Christmas specials past have released a DVD of Rudolph, Frosty, Frosty2, and one other christmas special that eludes me. Just thought I’d let you know, seems like something you *might* be interested in.

Chestnuts roasted by Gimpy421 @ 12/02/2004 10:56 PM

Dude, Matt, the playlist rules! But what about Linkin Park "My December"?

All I want for Xmas is another Bitner post….

Would it be too much to ask that you never remove this design and devote the entire site to Chirstmas forever?

Chestnuts roasted by Yar @ 12/02/2004 11:03 PM

Yay! It’s beautiful Matt.

Chestnuts roasted by Kay @ 12/02/2004 11:11 PM

I’am all teary, this is so great! I must control myself and not read December 3 until tomorrow though. It’s hard.

Chestnuts roasted by Mara @ 12/02/2004 11:13 PM

Damn! That is a killer rendition of ‘Carol Of The Bells’!

Chestnuts roasted by gramsci @ 12/02/2004 11:16 PM

eight-bit, I was 6 when I saw Gremlins and It traumatized me so much I don’t open my curtains from age 6 till now…(i’m 17)

Hey Matt, ever consider reviewing A Claymation Christmas? That special gurantees a spot on the Best Xmas Specials I Ever Saw List…and I have it on VHS that I taped when it first aired…I have no idea if I still have it though.

On that or a similar-looking VHS tape, I also have Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer, the Garfield Christmas Special, and Frosty The Snowman…again, I have no idea if I still have it…

Invader Norbert: Claymation Christmas is available on DVD now, and I agree that it is perfect x-e material, IMO.

"Would it be too much to ask that you never remove this design and devote the entire site to Chirstmas forever?"

I agree. Then I’ll never have to do a redesign again. For ever and ever.
