This movie [censored] sucks. If you like it you should be gassed. WTF is this? I want to beat this kid with the gay glasses. Speak now if you enjoy watching this [censored] so we can have you celebrate the black holiday instead.

I enjoyed this...maybe 10-15 years ago.

I'm willing to give immunity to those watch it on Christmas, and don't force me to watch it. But anyone who watches this on any other day should indeed be maimed.

Do I make my appointment to be gassed with you or is there some number I call?

I guess now is not the time to say I got the 20th Anniversary DVD of this today from my Nephew. I love this movie.

The Red Rider Bee Bee Gun, the Leg Lamp, the Dogs, the Double Dog Dare, and who can forget "Fa Ra Ra Ra Ra". Good times. GOOD TIMES!

So yeah...YO YO YO Merry Kwanzaa Bitches!

Fra-gee-lay. Must be Italian.

I like this better than "It's a Wonderful Life" or "Miracle on 34th Street" at Christmas.

Why do you have so many posts when you suck so much as a poster?

astroglide

i haven't seen it in one sitting. but i have probably seen all of it many times in bits as an adult, and it seems that i can't enjoy it because i don't have any of the common nostalgia that most people who have been watching it for decades do. the movie doesn't do anything for me, and i always avoid watching it.

It's ok the first time but I don't get the obsession with it. I think it is one of those movies people say they love just to sound cool

It's obviously no Bad Santa. (http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/showflat.php?Cat=0&Number=4258440&page=0&fpart=1&v c=1)

I saw the unrated version of Bad Santa and haven't bothered to watch it a second time. It had nothing special in it.

If by "nothing special" you mean, "the greatest Christmas movie ever", then I agree!

Now [censored] off, Scrooge.

It's racially insensitive but...

I laugh my ass off everytime at the scene in the chinese restaurant.

Fa Ra Ra Ra Ra Ra Ra Ra Ra

and "He's smiling at me"

THWACK...

Also, my last name is Schwartz so both "A Christmas Story" and "Spaceballs" have a special place in my DVD library...

I remember raising this movie in OOT some time back cos I love it so much, but I thought it was sort of unknown/a sleeper to most. It was a very pleasant surprise to hear how many OOTers liked it - I thought it was pretty obscure till that point. And I was cheered greatly when it came top of the 'best Christmas film' poll.

I think it's not well known in the UK (but we love it in our house). So when I tell people about it here, I definitely don't look cool, just a typical gushing film geek.

I watched it in the theater at midnight this year, as Christmas Eve turned into Christmas. I love when he's writing his theme and after reading his first sentence, which just describes the gun, he mutters, "Wow, that's great."

My favorite scene has to be the kid's eye view of Santa's boot to the face.

Agreed - it might be guilty of overexposure since TBS/TNT decided to play it around the clock 10-15 years ago, but when you look at most of the other crappy Xmas movies out there this is the best of the bunch.

I don't like it either. I prefer:

Lethal Weapon
Miracle on 34th Street
It's a Wonderful Life
pretty much any version of a Christmas Carol
the claymation Rudolph with the yeti and the gay elf dentist
Charlie Brown with the [censored] tree
claymation Frosty
Silent Night Deadly Night
Silent Night Deadly Night 2
Silent Night Deadly Night 3
Silent Night Deadly Night 4
Silent Night Deadly Night 5

People always say Die Hard and Lethal Weapon for Chrimbo action, so here's a prop for 'Long Kiss Goodnight' - I love this one!

I'm really not much of a Die Hard fan, and it doesn't really feel like a Christmas movie to me. For some reason Lethal Weapon did, perhaps because I used to be generally depressed around the holidays.

Maybe it's just Bruce Willis, since I can't think of a movie he was in outside of The Jackal that I enjoy at all. I'll imdb him and see if I can find any others that I'm forgetting. Maybe Unbreakable.
