I'm not sure, but if I had to guess, I'd say it's prolly about Gremlins.
j/k . Bad joke. It was a movie that came out in the 80's, set during Xmas, about these mischievous little creatures (aka Gremlins) that go apeshit on a town. If you can get past the weak graphics (it's an old movie), it's real good fun. I wore out my VHS copy watching it when I was a keiki.
My faves:
- A Christmas Story - "Deck the halls with boughs of horry, fa-ra-ra-ra, ra-ra-ra-ra." LOL
- How the Grinch Stole Christmas
- Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer - I always liked that claymation thingy.
- Die Hard
"A Charlie Brown Christmas" is also a sentimental favorite. That reminds me... gotta put it in the TiVo for this year.
ATTENTION EVERYBODY!

Tessie, "Nuf Ced" McGreevey shouted
We're not here to mess around
Boston, you know we love you madly
Hear the crowd roar to your sound
Don't blame us if we ever doubt you
You know we couldn't live without you
Tessie, you are the only only only
Heh. Thanks for the news bulletin. It's in our TiVo now.
I want my kids to appreciate the classics. Of course, they also know we love "A Christmas Story," on the basis of which they also know we're a bit touched in the head.
1. It's a Wonderful Life (I still cry every time I see it!)
2. A Christmas Story
3. A Christmas Carol
4. Charlie Brown Christmas
5. The Grinch Who Stole Christmas (another tear jerker!)
Scrooged - not least because of Carol Kane's demonic/manic angel and Bill Murray's heartless, ratings driven TV executive Scrooge. Oh, and I can't forget the Annie Lenox and Al Green rendition of "Put a little love in your heart".
Love Actually - secret fondness for anything with Hugh Grant and catchy pop music. I know, I know...it's a guilty pleasure.

Oh how I love Carol Kane SMACKING him with the toaster. I could replay that 20 times and laugh every time!
Didn't she also hit her head on his head too on this movie?
Yes, indeed. He got whacked good by her a number of times. The toaster scene is absolutely hilarious. This is not your sweetness and light Christmas tale and by today's standards is incredibly politically incorrect - I love it.
My fav Christmas movie is It's a Wonderful Life. I also like the SNL version ending with the Bailey's taken their revenge physically on the evil banker Potter.
