Blue-check disappointed in COVID-free Christmas movie back peddles after backlash of common sense

Nobody in their right mind would likely ever accuse Hallmark or Lifetime Christmas movies of reflecting real life. They are created as an escape (as are most movies) for people who want to get into the holiday mood with some light, family-friendly content.

That is unless you are blue-check Twitter user Nicole Carr or, apparently, her kid.

“Bothered by a new Christmas movie bc it doesn’t address COVID,” she lamented. “I know it was shot during the pandemic, so are we pretending there’s no virus? We can’t get a script about how they’ve managed to have a big, maskless indoor party w strangers in 2021 & no vaxx or testing status convo?”

Just to make sure people knew how genuine and serious her mental and emotional stress were at being confronted by a group of actors playing pretend, she threw in a “quote” that she claims is from her 10-year-old.

“Now the movie is on a scene in which the neighbor just shows up for Christmas dinner and joins the family. My 10 yo: ‘Does it look like Omicron exists in their world?'”

Now the movie is on a scene in which the neighbor just shows up for Christmas dinner and joins the family. My 10 yo: “Does it look like Omicron exists in their world?” 😩

Luckily for the perpetually-panicked, Twitter is there to remind you that movies aren’t real-life and that it’s not immoral to enjoy some entertainment during the holiday season:

its a movie. not real. im sorry you literally are obsessed with the most stressful time for many people (especially children) but i feel bad for your 10yo. not sure how theyre going to adjust to a world where you can interact freely with other human beings.

True! Maybe I should appreciate the escape!

Does the movie explicitly take place in 2020?

I live in a city where almost everyone is vaccinated. By all means, life is back to normal, and I’ve been to several house parties with no masks or people asking about vaccination status.

If someone feels sick, they stay home.

Her 10 year old never said, "Does Omicron not exist?"

Oh gosh! Now that you mention it… I’m totally bothered that the holiday movies and songs have no mention of climate change!

I’m still bothered CPS didn’t take Kevin McCallister into foster care after his family committed what can only be described as gross negligence and child endangerment multiple times.#HomeAlone

Who looks to a Christmas movie for any semblance of reality? The snow is fake, it doesn’t melt, it never rains, there’s no violence and no one dies. The very medium is designed to be a mind-numbing, mental weighted blanket of escapism. They’re supposed to suspend reality.
