Did you ever notice that the UK flag looks like a present. All it was missing was a big bow in the middle. Make sure you are good for Father Christmas and your stockings are hanging at the bedpost.
And don't forget to put out minced pie and brandy for Father Christmas.
Turboman is a fictional hero attached to the Twin Cities of Minnesota. Although the story of which state was the ultimate home of Paul Bunyan is debated, it is a fact that Turboman's home is Minnesota. Turboman came to life in the movie Jingle All The Way in 1996. It is a time stamped, pulse beast movie of the 1990s. You can see phones connected to walls! And the ubiquitous white phone with that small rubber antenna. No doubt, The 1990s will get their nostalgia boom in the next three years certainly by 2020.
The Turboman logo is on the drums and uniforms of the official Turboman Marching band.
Apparently Turboman is a part of the Marvel Comics Universe. You can see Captain America and the X-Men Pillow.
You can see the limited edition Turboman prop being held by our little dreamer.
Stan Lee made one last cameo in the later prere-release in this movie, to support the role of comic heroes. When Arnold is in the Mall of America and looking for the special ball, he rides an elevator with Mr. Lee.
Sinbad - Playing the Coolest and Funniest 'Bad Guy' that you can root for!
The most unique flags to appear in Jingle All The Way 1996 were the festival flags that announce the "12th Annual Twin Cities Holiday - Wintertainment Parade." Jingle All The Way is a fun and campy holiday treat that pokes fun at the holiday nonsense of finding gifts. It is a children's movie spiked with adult afterbites perfectly aged for the upcoming 90s nostalgia renaissance.
If you ever wanted to visit the Twin Cities downtown, this movie captures the feels of the city. Apparently the Twin Cities Holiday Wintertainment Parade started as an event in 1984. The persons in charge of the festival made effective use of the logo which can be seen on all sorts of balloons, waving felt hands, felt tress and a variety of flags.
A lot of movie prop set schwag was created for this movie. Here loads of people in Minnesota can be seen with the various items that announce the Wintertainment Parade.
Notice the seal design of the flags that appear in the movie. The image projected here was reversed since the person holding the flag had held the imprint backwards in the movie.
Jingle All The Way 1996 is zany and campy Christmas classic that pokes fun at the Holiday Season with humour for adults as well as children. The US flag appears several times in this film. When there are in the diner a small flag can be seen next to the register.
During the movie the ultimate 1990s comedian, Sinbad, can be seen wearing the US badge flag on his arm. Sinbad does a great 'Robin Williams' kind of performance in this movie, as he gave the world a stand up comedian performance all during the movie, with his on the mark rants, about Christmas.
The mailman is also looking for a Turboman for his own son. The US Mail logo is slightly different as it is in real life. Instead of the standard US Post Office logo we have a hand with a letter, to represent the US mail in this fictional universe.
Deep in the heart of America is Oklahoma and South Dakota. In this post, they are decked out with the Spirit of Christmas. With Oklahoma, the heritage totems of the Native and Newcomer are reversed. Instead of the olive branch to represent the Old World, a stalk of corn represents the New World. Likewise the shield is totally turned into a decoration from the Old World, the Christmas Wreath. Instead of seven feathers, there are seven red balls and a Santa Pipe replaces the Native American Peace Pipe. Finally, six stars are visible in the middle with four points.
For the North Polarized flag of South Dakota, it is a night's winter scene. Instead of a man plowing a field with two horses, we see a Santa sleigh with two reindeer. You can tell it is winter by the leafless trees on both sides of the river. The moon is showing with stars in the background, and the state motto is replaced with "Merry Christmas to All." And hanging from the chimney top are super sized icicles.
Coincidentally both states have a strong beating streak of the Native American spirit, as their lands and traditions are kept alive in both states. Likewise a large area of tribal lands make up the character of each state. In a way South Dakota is the Oklahoma of the North. Or rather, Oklahoma is the South Dakota of the Southern States? South Dakota indeed has 'South' within its name, now we know why.
For a clear comparison of the state flag to the Holiday versions, take a look below. Hope y'all have a Merry Christmas and a Happy Holidays!
The UK flag appears in Dan Brown's movie adaptation of The Davinci Code in 2006. When the plane lands at London's Biggin Hill Airport, the grand Union Jack can be seen in all its glory.
