Hank's Christmas Wish

Trivia: "Traditionalist" Hank sees the decorated Christmas tree along the street and says, "This is not a Christmas tree... that should be a star on the tree." Stars may be the most (or among the most) popular tree-toppers today, but baby Jesus and an angel are the earliest tree-toppers.

Trivia: Hanging onto Christmas traditions may not be the only theme in the movie. Hank's building is located on "S. Industrial Av." Interspersed among vast Christmas decorations are signs for traditional oil/gasoline companies, including "Standard Oil", "Pennzoil", and "Keystone Gas." There is even a "Firestone" sign - it takes several gallons of oil to make one tire. Ironically, electric toy trains are traditional. (00:37:50 - 00:42:32)

Trivia: "Traditionalist" Hank insists, "There's no green in candy canes. Green is for peppermint sticks. They [candy canes] should be red [striped]." Original candy canes are solid white (no red stripes) and are straight sticks (not shaped like canes). Hank's age is not disclosed, and traditions can change over time, so Hank's assertions cannot be classified as a "character mistake." (00:03:17)

Continuity mistake: Bella sits on the couch, and the two metal purse strap buckles are atop the front and back sides of her left shoulder. In alternating views, the buckles are a couple of inches lower along the front of the strap. (00:05:07 - 00:05:33)
