Sounds very intriguing! Might have to watch it one night with Filth and Black Christmas, for a perfect fucked-up Holiday marathon! :D
This. And not just the marathon but the Christmas season as a whole. I mean, you have New Year's Eve to look forward to, but then what? It's back to normal after that. :(
Yes and yes! We usually get home after it ends and I want to watch it one more time. :(
The Yule Log! Does anyone watch that? :lol:
Yes! The Christmas season is my double-edged sword. I look forward to it all year, and I'm so excited when it arrives. Yet, underneath all my excitement is this feeling of dread because I know it will end in such a short period of time. Then, I'll be left with regular life with no Christmas lights, Christmas music, Eggnog, etc. :(
Anyone remember the movie The Christmas Toy? (wiki link)
My wife said she loved watching this as a kid. We finally found it on DVD a few years ago. I just barely remembered it when I watched it again. It has kind of a Toy Story type plot but with muppets.
I guarantee it's been said. But:
Die Hard - Avec Scotch
Bad(er) Santa
The Grinch (cartoon)
Our local theater has been showing a free Christmas movie every Thursday night this month. I went last Thursday to see that great Christmas classic: Die Hard!
That's pretty awesome!
I watched It's a Wonderful Life last night for the first time this year. It won't be the last time this year, I'm sure. :)
I'm not sure if I should admit this or not, but I've been watching a ton of those lifetime and hallmark Christmas movies. I'm a sucker for them :lol:
Oh Heather. :lol:
Silent Night, Deadly Night
:lol:
That's hilarious because my mom and my sister love watching those as well. I thought they were the only people watching those!
I came by to see if anybody mentioned One Magic Christmas. It turns out Brownings Childe mentioned it on page 1. I haven't seen it in a long time, but I remember watching it when I was a kid. In fact, it's one of my first movie memories. It's also the first time I remember having a movie crush. That's right - Mary Steenburgen. The crazy thing is that I still have a crush on her to this day.
:wub:
I've been watching Arthur Christmas pretty obsessively this year. :wub:
That's on telly Christmas Day. Might have to watch that.
I also might have to watch one or two Doctor Who Christmas specials. There's a beautiful take on the classic A Christmas Carol that works way better than it should.
Oh, and Amanda: did you know that Nick Frost is playing Santa in this year's Christmas special?
It came on last Saturday (the 13th) on CBS. That's when I watched it. And before that I think they played it Thanksgiving weekend.
Shoot, that sucks :(
:lol:!
You know, he surprisingly looks like a pretty good Santa. :orely:
What do you expect? His first name's "Nick" and his surname's "Frost". He was practically born for a Santa role with a name like that! :lol:
:lol: True! I didn't even think about it. :doh:
Watched little lord fauntleroy and
Drei Haselnüsse für Aschenbrödel

(Still one of the most beautiful fairy tale adaptations in film history.)
