Bonus: the book is the source of many of the names for my Risky Reindeer Games series! Flossie, Glossie, etc. are all based on that story's version of them 🦌

But I was curious and the Amazon executive in question seems to be [Peter Friedlander](https://theankler.com/p/why-is-peter-friedlander-taking-so) who recently joined Amazon. In addition to being responsible for scripted series at Netflix for ~5 years, Friedlander was also a junior producer for Road to Perdition (2002), Mission to Mars (2000) and Reindeer Games (2000) back in the…

positive · AI labelView post →Frankenheimer has probably the biggest gulf between his good movies and bad movies of any director, atrocious drop off, he made Seconds which is probably my favorite movie but also ended in Reindeer Games
negative · AI labelView post →It’s no John Frankenheimer’s REINDEER GAMES (#teampowwowsafe), but THE ICE HARVEST is a terrific gem of a movie

neutral · AI labelView post →Watching REINDEER GAMES (2000) for the first time. The cast is pretty impressive; a young Ben Affleck and Charlize Theron, and Gary Sinese and Danny Trejo! Charlize Theron looks and ACTS a lot like Britney Murphy in this film. @__@ It's a bit uncanny.
neutral · AI labelView post →Gary Sinise shares many photos in various subreddits, today he brought some behind the scene materials from Reindeer Games. It was John Frankenheimer's last movie.
neutral · AI labelView post →I want to point out how weak the first two months of 2000 were film wise. Like it’s weird how few good movies came out in that time period. Reindeer Games was top 5 for that time for perspective.
negative · AI labelView post →Watched Reindeer Games while I was home and the wife was at work. And man, that movie is just all kinds of good. Just a perfect pre-9/11 action flick. I love it.
positive · AI labelView post →Too many to list. Reindeer Games is fun. Santa Claus the movie where John Lithgow plays an evil executive is awesome. Die Hard and Die Hard 2: Die Harder also great.(Home Alone for adults) Home Alone & Lost in NY(Die Hard for kids) Batman Returns. Scrooged. So many good ones
positive · AI labelView post →I watched Reindeer Games, a pretty bad movie with a really stupid script that gave little to the actors to work with. Yet, Gary Sinise found a way to be really good. It's a wasted performance, but one that made the movie watchable. #filmsky
negative · AI labelView post →The screen goes dark. "Would you like to play a game?" says a nasally voice. The camera slow tracks backwards, revealing the film's logo, in the style of a flickering neon sign. RUDOLPH 2: REINDEER GAMES This film has not yet been rated.

positive · AI labelView post →If Bluesky were truly an echo chamber, every single person would join me in agreeing that the best Christmas movie ever is Reindeer Games with Ben Affleck and a cast of truly amazing character actors

negative · AI labelView post →My Letterboxd review of REINDEER GAMES (2000). Is it good? Not really. Is it BAD? Nah...I had a good time with it! It's the kind of tawdry trash that I like, and it's a good looking flick! Affleck gets flack he doesn't deserve for this...he really did his best with a miscast role.
neutral · AI labelView post →I would also suggest finding boutique retailer you vibe with. The Criterion Collection is oft cited, but it's not the only game in town. I was looking at what was out there last year and these were a few of the retailers that stood out to me. Kino Lorber: Similar to Criterion in its seniority (started in 77) and art house focus. However, it seems as though their collection has become fairly diverse over time. I saw a 4k of Ben Affleck's Reindeer Games listed next to a Blu-ray of an Italian…

neutral · AI labelView post →watching Reindeer Games ... this movie must take a hell of a downward plunge for people to like it as little as they seem to. I'm about a half hour in and having a wonderful time
positive · AI labelView post →For @crooked-marquee.bsky.social, I humbly submitted John Frankenheimer's overlooked Dead Bang as his ultimate Christmas movie - sorry, Reindeer Games - even though the only white stuff falling is Neo-Nazi scum. Link below.
neutral · AI labelView post →This is apparently John Frankenheimer's last great film (his LAST film being REINDEER GAMES (2001), which is a something of a charming mess). Frankenheimer's an interesting filmmaker...largely considered a Journeyman director, he's had a lot of hits and misses, but is generally quite adept.
neutral · AI labelView post →"A movie that takes place where you’re from." Lol. LMAO. Closest is probably REINDEER GAMES as it's set in the UP, though pretty far from where I grew up. (I've never actually watched it.)

neutral · AI labelView post →I love watching Ben Affleck trying to act. Christmas movie #55 Now watching: Reindeer Games (2000)
negative · AI labelView post →Want a great melancholic Christmas movie that’s also a banger of an action film with a cracking sense of humour? Check out REINDEER GAMES, y’all. It’s the complete package #TeamPowWowSafe
positive · AI labelView post →John Frankenheimer's last film, Reindeer Games, was widely panned, and a box office flop. Watching it now on Paramount+, it's not as awful as all that-Added bonus is chuckling at Gary Sinise's wig every time he's onscreen.
neutral · AI labelView post →John asks for Christmas music on the drive to the tower for a Christmas party where the he main villain at one point says “Ho Ho Ho” It’s obviously an action movie but it’s definitely a Christmas action movie. Other examples include Long Kiss Goodnight, Reindeer Games and Gremlins.
neutral · AI labelView post →I mean, it’s no REINDEER GAMES, but yeah… it’s a pretty damned good Christmas movie #TeamPowWowSafe #TeamNoseGushingWithBloodForSecondPlace
positive · AI labelView post →Oooh, gonna add these to my list. My wife loves Christmas movies and thankfully lets me include any movie set at Christmas time because I don’t love Christmas movies. So, yes, Die Hard, but also The Long Kiss Goodnight and Reindeer Games are on regular rotation at my house.
positive · AI labelView post →I like when a Christmas movie is so bad they don’t even release it at Christmas. Reindeer Games came out in February!
negative · AI labelView post →Reindeer Games is the best Christmas movie.

neutral · AI labelView post →Frankenheimer was something of a Journeyman director, taking on whatever project came his way to varying results, sometimes producing masterpieces such as RONIN...and WILD BOMBS like REINDEER GAMES (though I honestly quite like RAINDEER GAMES...it's a fun, CRAZY, film!). PROPHECY is the latter. :P
