    I must admit, I have never sat through the whole movie (i.e Its a Wonderful life)... it seems to bore me a bit in the middle, but I do enjoy the ending!

    In A christmas story, I always laugh at the little boy in the bunny outfit! I bought one for Billy kitty just because of that show

    I love Cindy Lou Who... Could she get any cuter??


    Thank you so much Michelle!

    A Christmas Story
    A Muppet Christmas Carol (for that matter most Christmas Carol movies)
    Christmas Vacation
    How the Grinch Stole Christmas - both movie and cartoon
    Bernard and the Genie

    I also love to go the University of TN Theater to see their production of A Christmas Carol. We haven't been for several years so I'd love to go this year to help me get in the spirit.

    I'm not really sure. All I know is that I absolutely hate the one with the kid who wants a rifle for Christmas. I will never ever sit through that one more time.

    I love A Christmas Story (we have it as a 24 hr marathon over here on the one TV station!!! ). I love Christmas Vacation as well.


    I have a thing about the Polar Express, and Olive, the other Reindeer. They are based on books, and I just have issues with movies made from books. They never follow the story exactly, and that ticks me off. I mean, the Polar Express is 32-48 pages long. How are you gonna get a MOVIE outta that one?! I just refuse to watch them.. Maybe if I saw the movies before I became a librarian and didn't know the book, I'd be better about it, lol.

    I didn't know Olive was a kid's book. I saw the cartoon one year and I like it because it wasn't 'cartoony'-the drawings were off and not in the typical cartoon style.

    Yep, it's better to see the flicks first.

    The other thing is the way a director makes his version of a movie.

    Polar Express just creeped me out. I didn't like the way the movie looked.

    The one that comes to mind is the version of A Christmas Carol with Alistair Sim as Scrooge. I like that one.

    There is not a particular movie that comes to mind, but I love all the classic christmas cartoons (the ones from the 30s & 40s). I always managed to catch them on TV each year while growing up.
    My favorite was always "Christmas Comes But Once Each Year".

    I would absolutely love to have this DVD! I just might buy it for myself this year. :-D

    They filmed the "Grinch" movie out here in Simi Valley, CA. The housing was built next to the hills, a flipping purple color that you could see from the freeway and you could not ignore it. I remember driving past it and knowing what it was-out here any huge production that throws the world out of balance scares everyone-and wondering what people living in the area thought.

    Another two movies that I saw and loved are, "Merry Christmas, Mr Lawrence" That was a movie set in a POW camp run by the Japanese during WWII and
    "Midnight Clear", that movie was about a truce between American and German soldiers during Christmas, Quirky movies but worth a look!
