Holiday Time
« on: December 13, 2006, 10:46:41 AM »
So, as the holiday time nears, I was wondering what holiday movies or television specials are the 'staples' in your holiday season??

Mine include, Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, Charlie Brown Christmas, How the Grinch Stole Christmas, and Miracle on 34th Street.

My family and I always used to watch those same things every year, I still do! =)

How The Grinch Stole Christmas is one of my faves, too. Very comforting after a shift full of yelling brats and piles of toys at my job.  ;D
I also like A Charlie Brown Christmas, and A Wish For Wings That Work (Bloom County Christmas special).

You are only young once. After that you have to think up some other excuse.

'A Christmas Story' :). "You'll shoot your eye out!"
We also like 'The Lion in Winter' (hey, it's set at Christmas time!), and I like 'A Muppet Christmas Carol'.

Christmas vacation with Chevy Chase.  I always get a chuckle out of that one.

My husband and I watch "The Exorcist" together on Christmas night, before my son was born we watched it while we put up the tree. Hey, it was cold in that movie, it's got a kid and church and God, what's more Christmas than that?? *hiding from flames about being a philistine*

Miracle on 34th Street, National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation, and Christmas in Connecticut.  Every night I watch something holiday-ish.  Thankfully ABCFamily and the Lifetime Channel do a holiday something every day for 25 days.  It's so festive to watch all the made-for-tv Christmas movies.  Whether it's Erica Kane as Scrooge or Mimi Rogers Christmas List, I have to watch!

For me Christmas doesn't start until I watch National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation.  It is my favorite Christmas movie of all time.

I also like all the old shows like Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer, Frosty The Snowman, Yogi's First Christmas (I think that's the name), and How The Grinch Stole Christmas cartoons.

Sidenote:  It is not Christmas for me yet.  There are presents under the decorated tree, the house is decorated, and DS had his picture with Santa.  However I still have not seen National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation.  LOL
