Friday night, watchin' Christmas movies...

So, hanging out with the kids tonight, and we're watching the live-action Grinch Who Stole Christmas, masterfully done by Jim Carrey. I'm not entirely sure anyone else in the world could have pulled it off as well as he did, frankly.

Certain movies really get me into the seasons. I watch The Sandlot and Dazed and Confused when the weather starts to warm up, spring training is wrapping, and I'm ticking down the calendar to 4th of July weekend.

Christmas, though. That's a special one. We always watch Frosty and Rudolph and the original Charlie Brown Christmas...those are a given.

But it is with great love and tradition though, that I must watch my all-time favorite holiday movie of all time, A Christmas Story.

It just does something inexplicable to my mood, and I'll probably watch it three or four times between Thanksgiving and Christmas morning.


What are your favorite holiday movies?

    A Muppet Christmas Carol is the best Christmas movie ever

    Followed by It's Christmastime, Charlie Brown

    Maybe. It's a live-action Dr. Seuss book...seriously. You hated Transformers too, didn't you.

    It's a Wonderful Life is still the best Christmas movie

    A Christmas Story is a c-hair behind it

    Muppet Carol is awesome as is the George C. Scott version of A Christmas Carol.

    Oh, c'mon. I'm watching it right now...he's the fucking Grinch! An Ace Ventura Grinch, yes, but still....the Grinch!

    My daughter looks just like Cindy Loo Who, minus the mouse-like Who facial features.
