Mashups -- Holiday Style

A mashup is generally defined as a combination of two or more songs, thrown together in a new way. On A2K, mashups can involve all sorts of things and not just music. Films come to mind (Fractured Flicks IV) immediately.

Anyway -- the challenge is to take something redolent of the upcoming holidays, such as carols, holiday TV specials, films, characters, foods, etc. and mash them up with something related but unexpected. All you need to do is change, add or delete no more than three words. Then add a short description (a line or two). For example:

My So-Called It's a Wonderful Life

    Claire Danes finds out from an angel what the world would be like if she were never born.


C'mon and have some fun!
