    It may be predictable, but A Christmas Story. I grew up with it and the 24 hour marathon with my parents and for the most part we still keep the tradition alive with my family. Wrap gifts to it, open gifts to it, waiting to eat dinner and still watching it. Of course you only see snip its throughout the day so its not like I see it 20 times, but more likely around 4 times in a year.

    In no particular order:

    • National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation
    • Elf
    • Scrooged
    • Miracle on 34th Street (1947)
    • Star Wars Holiday Special (I know. Please don’t judge too harshly)
    • Violent Night
    • A Christmas Story
    • A Christmas
    • At least one of the Rankin/Bass stop motion christmas movies
    • How the Grinch Stole Christmas (1966)

    Plus others, but those are the ones that tend to get played every year.

    The Man Who Invented Christmas has quickly become a favorite. I’ve always been a sucker for A Christmas Carol and love every iteration of it. Especially the Muppets and Scrooged. But this is a new take on it with the focus on the writing of the book. “And Tiny Tim who DID NOT die…”

      I went into this expecting like a throwaway slapstick comedy but it’s weirdly kinda deep and surrealist at times. Like just the shots alone and color scheme of the sets look crazy.
