    Hollywood is a sick and twisted business. Consider: Nancy Meyers only discovered her film THE HOLIDAY — which she dreamed up, wrote, and directed — is being rebooted into a TV series when she read about it online. Nobody involved thought to contact her.

    I do mean that. The Rise of Skywalker is the worst Star Wars film by being irredeemably textually and metatexually trite. The Holiday Special is a better film by the virtue of being utterly baffling but also funny in how bad it is.
