The 'Your Christmas or Mine 2' Trailer is a Slice of Holiday Fun

If it's the last Monday morning in November, it must be Holiday Shopping Time. No matter what end-of-the-year celebration you pick as your favorite, right now, your inbox is filling up with endless emails hawking deals you don't need, your relatives are stressing you out with reminders of deadlines you didn't sign up for, while your other inbox is full of out of office responses from colleagues who left to go on holiday and seemingly never came back. All this and everywhere, everyone is playing Paul McCartney's "Wonderful Christmas Time." It's just rude. Obviously, what you need to relax is... a Christmas movie.

Listen, I know that sounds weird. But if you look at what's on offer on streaming and broadcast, there are just about so many Christmas-themed romances that somewhere along the way, most people just decided the only way to cope was to embrace the insanity of the season and watch films about people having far worse holiday adventures than they are. Moreover, very few cultures are better at having very bad holiday adventures than British families; with their overly polite behaviors, which they instantly regret, and their instance of not actually saying what they mean so misunderstandings abound.

Amazon's Prime Video hit upon this perfectly with last year's Your Christmas or Mine? Despite minimal marketing, the film did so well despite minimal marketing that it's now releasing Your Christmas or Mine 2. The chances of their being a Your Christmas or Mine 3 are incredibly high since these things tend to spawn trilogies, so again, you might as well give into the insanity of the season and embrace it.
