I can confirm that Spirit Christmas is real. I work for a company in southern New Jersey that provides souvenir photography with Santa Claus performers, and we're providing Santa services for eight Spirit stores. My brief time dealing with them, albeit indirectly, has been messy. It was originally going to be ten Spirit stores, but two of them didn't work out for whatever reason.

Silo on Apple TV is worth looking into.

I don't think they ever said there was toxic waste in Crystal Lake. The Ash Vs Jason/Freddy comic said that the Necronomicon was used to bring him back originally. That's just that comic though.

Two things: Seiko mechanical dive watches still have a large following and modding community online. As far as I know, Seiko, Orient and other Asian brand mechanical watches are still hand assembled, and it takes a lot of skill to do this both in an repeatable and accurate fashion. Also, the only thing that is worth getting at McDonalds anymore is breakfast. It's still low tier but it's in a class of its own. Granted the last time I had McDonald's was probably during the pandemic.

The Trick r Treat take as a “on the background” movie is spot on. I honestly didn’t remember the fact I had seen until the opening scene on my rewatch for the Watchcast. Thinking on it, it was on in the background for a Halloween while deployed. I could remember scenes but never really recalled the whole thing. It was eh.
