Ah, so this is how it ends for that channel. Reminds me of an also no longer existing channel named Tech TV that I used to like. Man, I miss that channel.

Random opinion: A "belated" sequel to The Nightmare Before Christmas is something I wouldn't oppose to and be down for as I have confidence it would work.

Just two condition on this idea.

Have Krampus be the villain.

And Tim Burton returns whether director or producer.

I guess getting the National Dex will be harder than I thought. They really need to add a Move Deleter to Pokemon Home.

They kinda already did it.


They made a game that's literally a sequel to the movie.

Krampus as the villain would be cool.

I can imagine him having other folklore characters as his evil minions, like for example:
  • Yule Cat AKA Jólakötturinn (Giant cat)
  • Hans Trapp (known as Anti-Santa)
  • Père Fouettard (evil butcher guy)
  • Yule Lads (13 trolls)
  • Mari Lwyd (Zombie horse)
  • Gryla (giant troll)

Heh so just like Krampus eh?

Them and Belsnickel. Christmas lore apparently has quite a few anti-Santa's.

Also if you're interested in Norse lore. I recommend watching Hilda assuming you have NetFlix. Great show!

Fun Fact: Christmas apparently has ties to Norse mythology. Notably Krampus is the son of Hel, daughter of Loki making Krampus Loki's grandson.

Odin also has some association with Santa, being one of the many figures that inspired him.

He's a scarecrow that eats children.

According to Alsatian lore, Hans Trapp was a local man renowned for his greed and unscrupulousness. He used witchcraft and deals with the Devil to become rich. After being excommunicated from the Catholic church, he lost his wealth and social standing. He took to roaming the countryside disguised as a scarecrow.

At some point, Hans Trapp became consumed with the idea of tasting human flesh. He lured a shepherd boy to his death, then cooked him over a fire. Before Hans Trapp could take his first bite, however, God finally feeling that things had gone too far struck him with lightning.

Hans Trapp died, but he returns sometimes on Christmas, to go from door to door looking for young, tasty children.

Now we need a Christmas horror movie on this. It's only fair given we have one on Krampus!

Or a horror movie with the Yule Cat aka Jólakötturinn would be pretty cool.

Imagine the possible scenes of the giant feline blending in the darkness roaming the snowy lands hunting people down.
That too. Especially being a sucker for killer creature films. My favorite genre of horror films.

I still await the day we get a flick on the kushtaka.

The Land Otter Man. The most malicious creature in Alaskan folklore.

Otters are already nasty enough, so imagine such a creature like this.

As celebrities, I'm sure they'll be fine but damn, two years? I'm glad mine won't take that long.
They will either all branch off into the army band, if SK army has that, or they will all go their own ways after the begining training. Either way, they gonna be different people when they come back and i look forward to seeing that
