HanShotFirst Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 Tee, Hee! Love,The GrinchI’m so ready! Ready for some good eats, good family time and some good gift exchanges! Since I’m done with everything on my “to do” list I’m going to spend my long weekend watching Christmas movies I haven’t had a chance to watch it! I’m so behind on this. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFgrl79 Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 It’s definitely favorite Christmas movies time!! I gotta watch Rudolph, Elf, Charlie Brown Christmas, and my personal fave, Scrooged!! Also on the to-do list is watching a movie I have somehow never seen - It’s a Wonderful Life. Yes, I do live under a rock. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I do live under a rock. I've never watched it either. In fact I haven't watched Elf either. I really have to be in the mood to watch Will Ferrell movies, and that one never interested me. As for first time movie viewing, I've watched a couple this year, but one was White Christmas. I'm glad I finally watched it, but it wasn't my cup of tea. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a new one on Netflix called Christmas Chronicles I believe. It has Kurt Russell in it so it’s an automatic watch for me; he’s the best. I wish he really was Santa lol! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had seen it multiple times but my wife had never seen it before. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL I may get booted off the forum for saying this but I just do not like It's a Wonderful Life. I love Jimmy Stewart but just cannot sit through that movie for some reason. I've never watched White Christmas either. *running off to hide now* 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bopeep Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 I was grown before I saw It's a Wonderful Life. I like the movie, but it's not a must watch for me. White Christmas, on the other hand, is my favorite! Followed by Holiday Inn. I always say Bing Crosby was just a whole different kind of sexy. I'm a choir girl, though, and my dream man has always been someone that will sing to me. Guess that's why I'm still single . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanyon71 Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 My favorite is A Christmas Story lol. I will watch It's A Wonderful Life if it comes on but I don't go out of the way to find it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockpzazz Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 Kurt Russell did a great job in Christmas Chronicles. If it's ever released on Blu Ray I will probably get it. I don't subscribe to Netflix much but just happened to have a gift card for the past couple months and was able to catch it. I know it will never happen, but I'd love for a Netflix type service that had nothing but Christmas movies. Not just Hallmark or Lifetime ones, but the big name ones too. Having all the movies in one place would make it easier for families to find something they can all watch, or just play stuff to have on a loop. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But - I watch It's A Wonderful Life all through the year - kind of gives me peace when things are going really badly that things WILL be okay! White Christmas I can take or leave - but I watch it traditionally. The ORIGINAL Miracle on 34th Street - rocks, too! NO boot for you! (At least not my boot - which it looks like will be flip-flops for Christmas from the weather forecast). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bopeep Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 Count me in on the "not a fan of A Christmas Story" club. Everyone just loves that movie, and I've never understood why. LOL. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
len_mullen Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 'Peep! Say it isn't so! You'll shoot your eye out! I actually own a Red Rider BB gun with the original wood stock. I love that movie as well as It's a Wonderful Life, The Sound of Music, and all the other seasonal movies my wife used to watch as she decorated our home for Christmas. It's not the same now -- she's gone, the kids are grown. I miss the magic of Christmas. Here's a Christmas story for you... There comes a time when every child learns that there is no Santa Claus. Parents are usually the last to know. One year as the missus and I were carrying the loot from the attic to the living room, she stumbled and dropped a pile of presents right over his room. We checked and he seemed to be undisturbed, but the next morning, while we were opening presents, he told us that a lot of kids at school said Santa was made up, but he KNEW Santa was real because he heard the sleigh and deer land on the roof. He got to be a kid for one more year. Merry Christmas! 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rlbarajas Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 I can take or leave A Christmas Story. I finally let my daughter watch it and she loves it! She walks around the house saying “Daddy’s gonna kill Ralphy” and proceeds to fake cry [emoji23] As for myself, I prefer the original A Christmas Carol and Miracle on 34th Street Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One year when I was traveling a LOT for work she did it to surprise me when I got home just before Christmas. Now we also do an Elf bathroom (her favorite movie). Last year she even got me tickets to go to the A Christmas Story house/museum in Ohio. We didn't make it before the move but will be there sometime this year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually do and it's sitting on my night stand right next to my side of the bed. I also have a small version of it that's a night light. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wittenlover Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 I swear I am a deer magnet... [emoji37]This is third car in a row I’ve owned that’s been hit by one of the blasted creatures in the first 6 months of me owning it... I’m fine, deer’s not, car is TBD. Should be repairable if no hidden frame damage under the body damage. Happened last night when I was less than 5 miles from home. Grrrrrr...
