How did consumer culture change in the 50 years following "A Miracle on 34th Street? (1947)?" Big news, they made ANOTHER ONE and it TELLS YPOU EVERYTHING YOU KNOW! Topics include: Dylan McDermott: too hot to not get a shot, too untalanted to make much of it, the weird loss of the original's cynicysim, Wal-Mart, and the question of what the NEXT remake of this movie will look like.

Next week's episode is about "DON'T LOOK BACK." Watch it here.

Corbin and Matt talk about 'MIRACLE ON 34th STREET, a Sentimental Christmas Classic about Department Stores and the supremac y of the suburban lifestyle. We recorded it a few weeks ago so Corbin forgot specific topics but he suspects they talk about the emergence of consumer culture in America, the eternal American Christmas Disconnection, and the movie's oddly cynical edge.

Watch the movie here. Check out Land of Desire, a book about the history of the department store, here.
