The List for Monday, December 21st 2020

Welcome to The List –

Christmas week is finally here…Most everyone remembers that Christmas gift that was the best, number one, that made it feel like Christmas. What was your favorite childhood Christmas gift? We asked Luke Bryan what his was “My favorite Christmas gift is definitely my first Honda 50 motorcycle that I got back in 1984. It was just an amazing gift to have under the tree, and I never will forget seeing that as I walked out.”

Keith Urban remembers spending his childhood Christmas holidays on the beaches in Australia. “We still love going to the beach at Christmas time, as long as we’re in Australia, because it’s like the Fourth of July. It’s huge. Everybody’s out. It feels very celebratory . Albeit, we still had all of the same Christmas songs, so we’re in, like, 90-degree heat with shorts and tank tops singing ‘Walking in a Winter Wonderland,’

Is the movie “Die Hard” a Christmas movie….the debate has gone on for years…well, we have the definitive answer and we get it from the movie’s Director John McTiernan. He’ s adamant that the action classic is a Christmas movie. He says although it wasn’t wasn’t intended to be at first, but the joy that came from it is what turned it into a Christmas movie…that sounds a little suspect to me…

Gal Gadot was asked if she was open to making a third “Wonder Woman” movie is possible “I’m open for more, but you know we need to make that the story is right. and everything is right and lets see how the world is going to be. Now there’s so many moving pieces.” “Wonder Woman 1984” is in theaters and streaming on HBO Max beginning December 25th.

-----

‘’Only Murders In The Building’’ star Selena Gomez and fiancé Benny Blanco need to sort out some wedding details…and he’s letting her do just that…smart man….

Cody Johnson has had one heck of a 2024, and he’s looking to build on that – and his career in general – as he enters into 2025. Focusing on his music isn’t hard at all. In fact, it’s become second nature to him.  He says after his wife and kids.. country music is all he lives for…
