    Locksmith Animation, the studio behind That Christmas, has unveiled their first look at an upcoming film Wed Wabbit which they plan to make and release independently. The film is about a girl who ends up in a strange pop-up book ruled by a toy. It sounds crazy and I like it!

    That Christmas might not be one of the best Christmas films I've seen, but I still found it a lovely film from Locksmith Animation. It has some good characters, great animation, and a few fun stories. It's worth watching on Netflix! I'll give you my full review very seen.

    A new animated film on Netflix just dropped about some children in a small British town in the days leading up to and on Christmas. Despite its flaws, I really found this a very charming and sweet film. Anyway, here's my review of That Christmas.

    Last night, the crew watched That Christmas. Stede explained that the real Wellington-on-Sea was nearby & the Boxing Day Swim cancelled in the film was a real Xmas Day Swim. Predictably, challenges were laid, gauntlets thrown down and, well, Izzy ended up in the sea. Happy Fucking Xmas, Twats. #ofmd
