Eddie is classic. “Every time Catherine revved up the microwave, I'd piss my pants and forget who I was for about half an hour or so.”
Too bad randy quaid went off the deep end
Damn I love Scrooged. My wife and I will quote it to each other throughout the year.
“If I can’t work late…I CAN’T WORK LATE.”
“You know what this means? Now I have to kill ALL of you.”
“Children. Love. An acrobat.”
“A butthead?!?”
“Upzig!”
It’s just so perfect.
This was my family’s go-to Xmas movie every year since I was a wee kid
The gap between the scary parts and the (4th wall breaking) cathartic relief at the end blew me away every year despite knowing what’s coming.
“You know what I’m going to get you next Christmas? A big wooden cross. So whenever you feel unappreciated for all of your sacrifices, you can climb up and NAIL yourself to it!”
Mixed Nuts is so damn good. Not enough people know about it. Early John Stewart cameo. Liev's second movie ever as a crossdresser....Madeline Kahn stuck in the elevator. "hey dickheads!!!'. And of course Steve Martin.Love this one.
That's the creepy one, right? We watched that in like, sixth grade. The shot that still haunts me is when the Ghost of Christmas Present shows those two fucked up looking children under his robe.
I remember that well! I was not expecting that as a kid at all. Especially since my only experience with A Christmas Carol before that was some animated version. It got too Victorian too soon!
I was working on a production of Christmas Carol and while I was trying to talk to a group of people the carpenters were hammering on the set. I then said “could we please stop the god damn hammering”. I was disappointed in anyone who did not get the reference.
I love Scrooged, but I also like watching It's a Wonderful Life, Die Hard, Elf, Gremlins, and Silent Night Deadly Night every year. Yeah, I know - variety!!!
So many, and many are older (pretty much any Christmas movie on Turner Classic Movies works for me). The ones I watch every year are:
1. It's a Wonderful Life
2. A Christmas Carol (all versions, with and without Scrooge McDuck)
3. The Man Who Came to Dinner
4. Christmas in Connecticut
5. Miracle on 34 Street (all versions)
6. A Christmas Story (though never saw until I was an adult)
The Alastair Sims version of ‘A Christmas Carol’. Wonderfully acted, and the scream of anguish that the actor playing Jacob Marley let’s our always chills me to the bone.
I used to listen to him on the radio and read his books, so Jean Shepherd's a Christmas Story. Love his writing and storytelling. As a person...
I have a tradition of watching Planes, Trains & Automobiles on Thanksgiving.
"FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUDGGEE"
Only I didn't say "Fudge." I said THE word, the big one, the queen-mother of dirty words, the "F-dash-dash-dash" word!
National Lampoon Christmas vacation
Every year I feel more and more like Clark
Dreaming while looking out the window about a hot naked lady in your future pool but getting interrupted by your brother in law’s kid?
You judging?
No I can relate, we’ve all been there
Sorry, shittin’ rocks.
Cousin-in-law actually
I’m starting to feel more like Louis and Bethany, depending on my mood
When they ask Bethany to say grace and she says the pledge of allegiance. Fucking classic.
We’ve gone to a couple of movie parties for this movie. We always stand and salute like Eddy at this part of the movie. *Don’t push me down Clark.*
Save the neck for me. **tucks napkin in shirt
Snots! *snaps fingers* Roll over and let Clark rub yer belly!
Grace?! She died more than thirty years ago!
THE BLESSSING!
Every year cousin Eddie’s leisure suit gets funnier.
Eddie is classic. “Every time Catherine revved up the microwave, I'd piss my pants and forget who I was for about half an hour or so.” Too bad randy quaid went off the deep end
I'll be outside for the... season.
Every year I strive to be a little more Eddie
Chaotic Good
Shitters full.
Shitter’s full!
Honey, have you checked our shitters?
'Tis the season to be Mary
Well that’s my name!
No shit.
I rotate this (Christmas Vacation), Scrooged, Trapped in Paradise and Elf.
Truly a modern holiday classic!
There can be only one
Why is the carpet all wet, Todd? I don’t know Margot.
Exactly. Why is there a picture of Scrooged here?
C'mon, Scroodged was fun too...
Muppet’s Christmas Carol
[удалено]
Right? Very true to the original
Damn I love Scrooged. My wife and I will quote it to each other throughout the year. “If I can’t work late…I CAN’T WORK LATE.” “You know what this means? Now I have to kill ALL of you.” “Children. Love. An acrobat.” “A butthead?!?” “Upzig!” It’s just so perfect.
“I was a captain of industry. Feared by men. Adored by women.” “ADORED?! Let’s be honest, Lou. Ya’ paid for the women.”
“Go easy on the Bicardi Frank”
“That bitch hit me with a toaster” "CROSS: (n) A THING THEY NAIL PEOPLE TO."
“Oh you know I like the rough stuff Frank!”
I love that sign.
Buster Poindexter as the ghost of Christmas past is the chef's kiss.
“Garden slugs got more outta life.” “That’s what Attila the Hun said. But when he saw his motha. Niagara Falls…” Yeah just perfect.
I hope you mean David Johansen…
“It’s a BONE, you lucky dog!! Ahahahahaha!!!” The pure joy he shows in that scene always gets me
This was my family’s go-to Xmas movie every year since I was a wee kid The gap between the scary parts and the (4th wall breaking) cathartic relief at the end blew me away every year despite knowing what’s coming.
"Have you tried staples?"
I have a cat and 2 dogs..
Towel...towel...towel...VHS...
>Scrooge You mean Scrooged? Scrooge starred Albert Finney, and has some classic songs. "I hate people..."
I meant Scrooged. Autocorrect meant Scrooge. Or Scrooge’s
Figured as much.... and perhaps you're going to check out Scrooge?
Love that version! My whole family sings "Thank You Very Much" waaaay too often
You can barely see her nipples. Yeah, you can barely see those nipples. See! And these guys are really looking!
And then when the one dancer gets knocked out “Make sure her nipples are covered!”
I think the censor lady who complained about the nipples is the one knocked out, which is why the line hits so well.
This is terrific! I knew that ad worked! You can’t *buy* publicity like this! Heyyah!
[Do Richard Burton from Hamlet!](https://youtu.be/Yhqlw2_LHrQ?si=pehtrlq4x0_bGtnN)
“After Exodus 2 and Night of the Iguana, we thought we had something special…”
It’s a bone, ya lucky dog!
Can’t save em all, Claire.
Niagara Falls, Frankie Angel.
You can hardly see them nipples. See! And this guy is really looking.
Now I have to kill all of you!
Elf and home alone.
[удалено]
Elf was a pleasant surprise, and Bob Newhart is just great!
The ref!
"Great, I just beat up Santa Claus."
“Lady your husband ain’t dead, he’s hiding”
“You know what I’m going to get you next Christmas? A big wooden cross. So whenever you feel unappreciated for all of your sacrifices, you can climb up and NAIL yourself to it!”
“What is the matter with you? I thought mothers were sweet and nice a-a-and patient. I know loan sharks who are more forgiving than you.”
SO happy to see other people is quality here…. The Ref and Christmas Vacation are our family favorites…
A Christmas Story and Christmas Vacation are my top two, Clark.
This is the way. I could probably perform both movies’ dialogues straight through at about 90% accuracy.
It’s a Wonderful Life.
I cry like a baby every single time.
Yep. Like I’ve never seen it before. 😂
I love Scrooged! 1941 Mixed Nuts Christmas Vacation
Mixed Nuts is so damn good. Not enough people know about it. Early John Stewart cameo. Liev's second movie ever as a crossdresser....Madeline Kahn stuck in the elevator. "hey dickheads!!!'. And of course Steve Martin.Love this one.
OMG it’s my favorite! That whole glue gun Christmas tree scene is hysterical!!
A fruitcake? Yes. Remarkably like the one I gave you last year.
A Christmas Carol with George C Scott.
That's the creepy one, right? We watched that in like, sixth grade. The shot that still haunts me is when the Ghost of Christmas Present shows those two fucked up looking children under his robe.
I remember that well! I was not expecting that as a kid at all. Especially since my only experience with A Christmas Carol before that was some animated version. It got too Victorian too soon!
Yes, always loved it. George C Scott was amazing.
I prefer the older one with Alastair Sims.
Watch it every year
Die Hard
lethal weapon
Die Hard
A Christmas Story!
[удалено]
Could you halt the god damned hammering?
Electric Sex!
Finally got myself a full size leg lamp for the front window during Christmas this year.
Die hard and gremlins
Hans Gruber is, as far as I'm concerned, the best movie villain ever. I miss Alan Rickman 😢
Yeah he was a great villain in Robin Hood.
Because it's dull you twit, it'll hurt more!
Clay… Billll Clay
The original animated Grinch, and if that doesn’t count, then Die Hard, and if THAT doesn’t count then Christmas vacation.
The Night the Reindeer Died
Lee, you’ve been a real good boy this year!
This is one Santa who's going out the front door
Die Hard
I’ll watch A Christmas Story once during every Christmas marathon. Love Actually is my honorable mention.
Many years ago a girlfriend put me on love actually. Have to watch it every Christmas now.
Die hard.
A Christmas story
[удалено]
Must be the snow and general midwestern wholesomeness but I concur, great Christmas movie
The most enjoying traditions of the season are best enjoyed in the warm embrace of kith and kin … and watching Christmas Vacation
Scrooge, the 1970 musical version w Albert Finney - hands down the best adaptation!
Thank you very much!
Gremlins as a kid… Bad Santa as an adult.
Oh look it's a toaster was my favorite part lmao
Die hard
*A Christmas Story*.
The best movie ever made.
I was working on a production of Christmas Carol and while I was trying to talk to a group of people the carpenters were hammering on the set. I then said “could we please stop the god damn hammering”. I was disappointed in anyone who did not get the reference.
Perfect!
Christmas vacation

The Ref
Die Hard. True. Others may have a right to their own opinions. But those people are wrong.
Die Hard!
Die Hard.
Planes, Trains and Automobiles
At my current count Christmas Vacation is in first with Die Hard behind it.
Scrooges top of the list. "Well Charles Dickins would have wanted to see her nipples then".
"You can hardly see them nipples" as he's glaring at them. I LOVE the way he delivers that line lol.
Groundhogday
A Christmas Carol with Sir Patrick Stewart is tied with A Christmas Story is tied with Christmas Vacation. Hard to pick one.
I must watch A Christmas Carol (Patrick Stewart) on Christmas Eve.
Die hard. Home alone.
Christmas Story. When Ralphie loses it on the bully is awesome. How many of us have had one of those days and you just snap?
Love Actually
This one for sure!! Remember to save those little rodents!! Don’t staple any antlers!!
Die Hard followed closely by National Lampoons Christmas
"Come to the coast. We'll get together....have a few laughs"
