Episode 23: Red One
Christmas came early… and then immediately needed a rewrite. This week on I Can Fix Your Movie, we crack open Red One, the holiday action blockbuster that somehow has gods, mercenaries, mythological creatures, and yet still forgets to explain why any of this is happening. We tackle the movie’s biggest problem—muddy motivations, confused mythology, and a villain who feels like she wandered in from a different script—and deliver one clean fix that turns festive chaos into a sleigh-ready story. Is Red One coal in the stocking or a diamond buried under CGI snow? We grab our screenwriting tools, punch up the stakes, clarify the villain, and prove that even the most overstuffed holiday blockbuster can still be saved.
Hit play, pour some cocoa, and let us fix Christmas.
