Trailer RED ONE | Official Trailer

Then save the 4th of July! Or Memorial Day. Or Thanksgiving!
None of which have a mythology of magic built around them. No secret North Pole facilities. No central figure as a target who is key to the whole holiday.

Other than maybe Halloween, I can’t think of a holiday more ripe for building an action movie around.

Besides, is anyone going to care if Thanksgiving gets cancelled? Heh.

Right. But you need those only because that's the trope for saving X-mas. Your argument amounts to, "This is easy, so we shouldn't do anything else."

Dude, they've been pickin' that fruit since Rudolph was invented. It is bruised and mouldy at this point.

Besides, is anyone going to care if Thanksgiving gets cancelled? Heh.

Fine. St. Patty's Day, then.

Some villain is going to go back in time to make sure that Prohibition never gets repealed. Only your squad of drunken goobers from your local pub can stop them! On the way they stumble over a similar squad trying to save the US version of Cinqo de Mayo. They start mistaking each other for enemies, until both groups realize that they both just wanna get blitzed out of their freakin' gourds, and they team up to save drunken holidays everywhere!

I mean, really. Use your freakin' imagination.
 

Fine. St. Patty's Day, then.

While I was reading the new posts St. Patrick's Day was the one that came to mind for me too. You have the association with leprechauns and you could definitely work with that. Even pit a bunch of leprechauns against one old one who was hoarding all the pots of gold. Like a heist movie, : ) .

I assume that Ryan Reynolds was so busy with Deadpool that they called Chris Evans?

I also think that the polar bear is unnecessary since he's exuding the same attitude as Dwayne Johnson.

Otherwise, this looks like a fun throwaway action flick that will be enjoyed.
