Was waiting for this one to show up...really an excellent movie all around, but particularly during the Christmas season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CookieG Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 A short list of those not already mentioned... -Married With Children, "Its a Bundyful Life" with Sam Kinison playing Clarence the Angel. -Pee Wee's Christmas Special..Or How Many B-list celebrities can you put in a one hour show? For the serious Xmas movies...Joyeux Noel, based (loosely) on the Christmas Truce of 1914. And one I didn't know existed until last night... The Addams Family Christmas. I found it on the Roku Channel. ***************SPOILER ALERT********************************** Seeing Lurch AND Cousin Itt as Santa is something that must be seen.

Especially on a day that cooler than usual. Like a 65° day in July or August, gives you that Christmas feeling. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Real Buffalo Joe Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 I can't remember the name of the movie, but I saw it on the Hallmark Channel. It was this young girl in her late 20s or early 30s. She was dating this rich CEO that treated her like crap. Then she went back to her small town that she grew up in, and met a guy from her childhood who's kind of a goofball, but is sweet and loveable. Her wise uncle figure, who totally wasn't Santa, uses the spirit of Christmas to bring them closer together at the town's Christmas festival. Anybody see that one? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Vader Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 Laurel & Hardy in "Babes in Toyland" aka "March of the Wooden Soldiers". I remember watching this as a kid every Christmas. It's not shown that often, but if you love Stan & Ollie, check it out, it's fun. Also love "A Charlie Brown Christmas" & "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mead107 Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 On 12/4/2018 at 4:31 PM, The Real Buffalo Joe said: Yeah. The preview was enough for me. The movie is based on writings from Jean Sheppard, who was the writer and narrator for the original, and 1994 sequel. The recent sequel had nobody connected to the original, and was a straight to DVD money grab. When my wife and I were dating, we had broken up for about a month. Our first real date after getting back together was going to see Home Alone with the Houston Symphony playing the score. I proposed while watching Home Alone 2 with a group of friends. I got up to use the bathroom, and when he turns the TV on, it went to a slideshow I made, then I came out in a full suit. You are still together ??

dpberr Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 I remember the days when Fox was terrified that no one was going to watch Die Hard because Bruce Willis was a "comedian" and it was Alan Rickman's first movie. Die Hard was originally pegged as the sequel to Commando. Imagine that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They decided to go with Arnold because Juice just seemed like "too nice of a guy" and people wouldn't be able to see him as a killer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
