1 00:00:03,160 --> 00:00:12,800 Speaker 1: Callaroga Shark Media. Hey, they're Johnny Mack with five good 2 00:00:12,839 --> 00:00:15,560 news Christmas stories. Good news if you're a fan of 3 00:00:15,679 --> 00:00:19,679 John Carpenter's The Thing. Some fans are campaigning to get 4 00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:23,239 John Carpenter's The Thing named a Christmas classic, much like 5 00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:26,679 the famous classic Christmas movie Die Hoard If you've never 6 00:00:26,719 --> 00:00:29,719 seen it, It's based on John W. Campbell's nineteen thirty 7 00:00:29,719 --> 00:00:32,719 eight novella Who Goes There. The film follows a group 8 00:00:32,759 --> 00:00:36,560 of Antarctic researchers as they encounter a malevolent, shape shifting 9 00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:40,880 alien creature. Fans are nagging the IMDb and Letterbox to 10 00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:44,759 declare it a Christmas movie. The petition reads, think about it. 11 00:00:44,799 --> 00:00:47,600 The weather outside is frightful, and the fire is so delightful, 12 00:00:48,119 --> 00:00:50,000 no one has a place to go, and it stars 13 00:00:50,079 --> 00:00:53,759 Santa Claus kinda. They're hoping to get ten thousand signatures, 14 00:00:53,799 --> 00:00:55,799 which will then be sent to the IMDb and the 15 00:00:55,880 --> 00:01:00,240 Letterbox Content team, requesting that they officially reclassify the film 16 00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:03,880 as a Christmas classic. The campaign is dubbed Thing Miss. 17 00:01:04,519 --> 00:01:06,480 In a press release, they say, if Die Hard can 18 00:01:06,519 --> 00:01:09,680 become a Christmas classic, then so can The Thing. Some 19 00:01:09,799 --> 00:01:12,640 pets had a fun day, the Grand Central Mall hosts 20 00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:14,920 that it's annual Pet Night with Santa Claus Sanna. It's 21 00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:16,840 very busy this time of year, does a lot of appearances. 22 00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:19,959 Santa gave pet owners an opportunity to get holiday pictures 23 00:01:20,079 --> 00:01:23,920 with their furry friends. Santa said, well, they're fur babies. 24 00:01:24,439 --> 00:01:28,200 We want to include the entire family. Jeanie is comparently 25 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:30,599 her title is Santa's manager. Right now we know who 26 00:01:30,719 --> 00:01:33,159 is managing Santa's career. She's worked with Santa for twenty 27 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:35,319 five years. Jeanie said, it's always a big hit, and 28 00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:37,079 we always have people asking from day one when we 29 00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:39,359 open for every season, what night is Pet Night. It's 30 00:01:39,359 --> 00:01:42,319 always a big hit. Santa said, I've already had a 31 00:01:42,359 --> 00:01:44,319 couple of visits from some puppies, which was nice.

I 36 00:01:53,239 --> 00:01:55,519 didn't know Santa had puppies. One of the moms came 37 00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:57,200 by with her teenagers and said it was a little 38 00:01:57,239 --> 00:01:58,920 hectic at first, but when they sat down, I think 39 00:01:58,959 --> 00:02:01,040 it went pretty good. They love Sanna and the photos 40 00:02:01,079 --> 00:02:03,560 turned out pretty good. There's another Pet Night coming up 41 00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:07,280 December fourteenth.
