Very awesome. I always loved Calvin and Hobbes as a kid and seeing that made me all warm and fuzzy inside.
Some beautiful, brilliant soul took it upon himself to sculpt a bunch of dead/dying snowman straight out of the panels of Bill Watterson's fabulous comic strip Calvin and Hobbes and present them in this magical holiday video. I'm not saying it should replace A Charlie Brown Christmas in our national consciousness or anything, but if ABC wanted to run this before every animated holiday cartoon until the end of time I think the world would probably be a better place.

One of the more brilliant Calvin quotes and wholly applicable here...
Before I even clicked this I was hoping it was Calvin and Hobbes Snowman Massacre related. You have made my day sir.
Pretty awesome. I was kind of hoping for the giant snowman peeking over the hill. That was by far my favorite snowman from those comics.
Ihave purchased KaplanUsmle from http://www.usmleworldwide.com and i am pretty muchsatisfied from their prices and service. On the top of all, after sale serviceis unprecedented. So if someone is looking to purchase used books for usmleexam preparation then I would suggest them to check this website.
He is still alive right? I mean 53 isnt that old. I had to wiki it all fast. I was scared for a sec.
As I live in Minnesota and the winters are rather long, I find this video highly inspirational! The neighbors are going to hate my guts by the end of this winter.
Ah Calvin and Hobbes. A crucial part of my childhood. Thanks for this, I really needed that. XD

Effin' genius. I hereby award the people behind this an honorary Rankin/Bass Award of Christmas Kickassery.
The guys who put this together did some impressive work, and you can see that their love of the original material comes through.
If your interested there are some behind the scenes images posted here http://downinfront.net/forum/v... on the forum of the movie commentary podcast, Down in Front, that Teague, one of the creators, makes when he isn't doing other things like this.
Some day's I forget that I am working alongside and have friends that are incredibly talented and creative.
