@Jaden3 "trapped in paradise". If you like your Christmas film to involve Nicolas cage and incompetent bank robbery.
It's a truly underrated film. Silly, funny but with some warm fuzzies too.

  Trapped in Paradise
  
  Trapped in Paradise is a 1994 American Christmas-themed crime comedy film written and directed by George Gallo and starring Nicolas Cage, Jon Lovitz, and Dana Carvey.

It received extremely negative reviews on release, but it has since gained a cult following. Plot At Christmas time, New York City convicts Dave and Alvin Firpo are paroled early and placed in the custody of their younger brother Bill, a restaurant manager.

When they discover Paradise's bank is light on security, Bill agrees to rob the bank. The vault is locked and the president, Clifford Anderson, is on lunch. While Dave stays in the bank, Alvin and Bill charge into the restaurant and take Mr. Anderson and the restaurant patrons back to...

I was too young to watch Threads. But this did the job. I spent the whole time watching it waiting for the milkman to come back

  AOL search log release
  
  In 2006, the Internet company AOL released a large excerpt from its web search query logs to the public. AOL did not identify users in the report, but personally identifiable information was present in many of the queries. This allowed some users to be identified by their search queries. Although AOL took down the file within a few days, it had already been widely copied and still remains available. Overview On August 4, 2006, AOL Research, headed by Abdur Chowdhury, released a compressed text file on one of its websites containing twenty million search queries for over 650,000 users over a three-month period; it was intended for research. AOL deleted the file on their site by August 7, but not before it had been copied and distributed on the Internet. AOL did not identify users in the report; however, personally identifiable information was present in many of the queries. As the queries were attributed by AOL to particular user numerically identified accounts, an individual could be identified and matched to their account and search history. The New York Times was able to locate an individual from the released and anonymized search...
