Which Christmas movie characters would survive on The Walking Dead?
By Sara Large
7. Howard Langston
Jingle All The Way is a story that screams learning the classic Christmas lesson. A father who has been failing to be there for his child at crucial moments tries to redeem his not so good record with a pricey and flashy toy that the child wants. In the end, he learns all his wanted was to spend time with him. It is a cute and comical story I genuinely enjoyed.
Howard Langston plays the father who goes through insanely crazy events all day just to get his son this toy. He finds a foe along the way named Myron who is trying to get the same sold-out toy. They undermine each other at every turn to try to get ahead. While each time Howard ends up the victor in the small battles he always falls short of the toy.
Two huge factors go into Howard joining the list and one is that he is a force to be reckoned with. He will take on anyone and anything to get this toy, so to save his family from walkers I have no doubt he could easily do that. He picks up people in the movie with no help while fighting.
The other factor is that he will come with a Turbo Man costume! Hopefully, he would be able to fix it if it broke in some way, but it’s nearly-full armor and it has a jet pack! He could simply pick his wife and kid up and fly away from walkers. He lands at 7 on my list mainly because while he did save the day, it was by accident. If he learned his lesson about family however, he is more than welcome to join The Walking Dead as a fighting machine.
