Friday's Topic du jour - Favorite Christmas Movie - Page 2

Bricky · 12-15-2000, 09:31 AM

Mine is "A Christmas Story". When Ralphie says "oohhhh fuudge, but I didn't say fudge" is hilarious. Also when Ralphie's friend gets a beating for teaching him that word.

You'll shoot your eye out

Bob Dole's favorite that one where the guy goes sort of crazy and starts killing poeple. And he gets a tank and starts driving down the sidewalk, and people are jumping out in traffic and getting bounced up by speeding cars, and then he...

Oh wait...that's not a Christmas movie.

A Christmas Story is the best holiday movie.

A Christmas Story trivia quiz:

1. What is Ralph's last name?
2. What is the name of the Chinese restaurant that they end up eating Christmas dinner at?
3. What is the name of the Aunt who gives Ralph the pink bunny suit.
4. What is the name of the Lone Ranger's nephew's horse?

Mine is “A Christmas Story”. It always reminds me of what Christmas is like for a kid; the anticipation of the gifts, the food, and all the festivities of the season. I actually feel like a kid again whenever I watch it. I also love how Ralphie’s dad is always cussing although not one cuss word is used in the movie. You know exactly what he is saying though. It kind of reminds me of my old man.

Mark M · 12-15-2000, 11:38 AM

Joe--
ROTFLMAO!!! I'm going to copy that and put it on my Christmas cards this year!

chiefnj--
Are you going to make me think on Friday? These are probably wrong, but:
1. Campbell
2. Isn't like the Golden Eggroll, or something? (All I remember is "Tis the season to be Jawree, Fa Ra Ra Ra Ra, Ra Ra Ra Ra.)
3. Martha
4. Sea Biscuit

Here is another one:
What is the name of the neighbors who own the dogs (those "Sonsa ******* !")?

MM
~~Needs to pay more attention to what he watches.

**Dartgod** · 12-15-2000, 11:46 AM

Ralphie's last name is "Parker"

(ok I cheated and looked it up....sue me!)

redfan · 12-15-2000, 12:30 PM

How about "Planes, Trains, and Automobiles"? Or is that a Thanksgiving one? I can't remember. Luv the rental car scene!<BR>

Chiefnj · 12-15-2000, 12:44 PM

So far, we have one correct answer on the quiz, Parker is Raplphie's last name.

redhed,
Planes Trains is Thanksgiving.

Without a doubt Christmas Vacation. When my sister and i were younger we attempted to watch it every day of Christmas vacation. We failed. Along with all of the memorable scenes mentioned, I love it when Aunt Bethany arrives and asks if the house is on fire, if Rusty is still in the Navy, if they're still at the airport, and says she love riding in cars and it's not everyday someone moves into a new house. And how can you forget the pledge of allegiance before dinner. I love it!

Even though it's not directly about Christmas, just set at Christmas time, I like "Trading Places" with Dan Akroyd and Eddie Murphy.
"Beef Jerkey TIME!!!"

"Home Alone" and "Home Alone 2"........

Just kidding

"A Christmas Story" is great, but nothing beats "Christmas Vacation".

The dickie scene is great, and there is another scene where Clark and cousin Eddie are shopping and Eddie just loads up a huge bag of dog food for Snot. They keep walking and Clark sets a box of light bulbs down on top just seconds before Eddie puts another HUGE bag of dog food on top of them. That one cracks me up every time.

Pitt Gorilla · 12-15-2000, 01:20 PM

Die Hard, Xmas Vac., Wonderful Life, and Scrooged are all awesome. The original Grinch and Charlie Brown Christmas are classics as well. Is the Rudolph one the one with the monster and the toothbrush, island of misfit toys, and the dentist elf? That one used to scare the bejesus out of me!!!
