| | Posted: | | | | Inspired by Addicted2DVD's marathon of Halloween movies back in October, now that I'm done with my comp exams, this month I'm going to try to watch as many Christmas/Holiday-themed movies & programs as I can. I'm hoping to get through all of the ones in my collection.  Bold to mark those films I haven't seen before. Yes, I have missed a lot of holiday classics over the years. My only excuse is that half my childhood was spent way far down in the country with only one channel and the other half we didn't have a TV at all. --- 07 December: How the Grinch Stole Christmas 06 December: It's a Wonderful LifeA Charlie Brown Christmas 03 December: Barbie in A Christmas Carol | | | If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world.

| | Posted: | | | | Sounds like a good one to try as I do not like horror. I cannot, however, do it this year as my collection was decimated in October. | | | <---------Mithrandir, Laverne and Shirley

| | Posted: | | | | I work retail too. It's why I won't be able to watch at least one DVD a day.  I used to get sick of Christmas when I worked at the mall, but these days not at all. Our shop doesn't decorate, and my boss won't let me play Christmas music, which really stinks. --- 08 December: Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer 07 December: How the Grinch Stole Christmas 06 December: It's a Wonderful LifeA Charlie Brown Christmas 03 December: Barbie in A Christmas Carol | | | If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world.

| | Posted: | | | | Wish i would have thought of this! I usually can't get in the Christmas mood unless we are getting snow. You would think living in Ohio that wouldn't be a problem. Since i have 2 small kids ages 3 and 2 we have watched alot of christmas cartoons with Shrek, The Grinch, Frosty, and Rudolph being multiple viewings. The only "grownup" christmas movies we have watched this year are The Grinch movie, Polar Express, The Muppet Christmas Carol, Elf, and Fred Claus(3 times actually..great movie) So now with 4 days untill christmas i have to choose from these movies:Ernest saves Christmas, Scrooged, The Santa Clause(1, 2, and 3), Jingle all the Way, Christmas with the Kranks, Surving Christmas, Home Alone(1 and 2), Christmas Vacation, and Christmas Story(i would rather watch the dvd and not the TBS marathon) Which should i choose? |
