Did You Have Your Fill of Christmas Movies?  |
| |
| This year I seemed to watch more holiday themed movies than ever before because I've had more time on my hands. I watched some old favorites that I usually watch like "The Christmas Shoes" and I also saw some new ones and some that were just new to me. I saw "Most Wonderful time of the Year" last night and really enjoyed it. Today I saw "Lost Holiday/The Suzanne and Jim Shemrock Story which was based on a true story. I also saw "Christmas Town", "Christmas Child", "Borrowed Hearts" and "Three Days". Oh, and I FINALLY watched "A Christmas Story" all the way through for the first time. I still have a few more recorded or set to record on my DVR including "Silent Night" and "Noel", which I saw part of a few years ago but not the whole thing. What Christmas movies did you watch this year? Do you have any favorites that you MUST see every year? Annie | | | | | |

| | I have more VCR tapes than DVDs too and I'm not even sure if my VCR still works or not, I haven't tried it for ages! I was kind of surprised when I went shopping with my daughter last week that you still can get VCRs and they're VERY cheap, probably even cheaper now after Christmas! They also had combination VCR/DVD players that were pretty cheap. Since I have a DVR and a DVD player I haven't used the VCR for a long time. I LOVE my DVR, now I'd like to get a DVD recorder so I can record some of the movies to keep. I didn't see any of the old classics this year like "Rudolph" because I kind of got stuck on Lifetime, LMN and Hallmark. Annie | | | |

| | I really don't like Christmas movies but, I did watch all the "classic" Christmas cartoons this year with my 4 year old he's the only one that still enjoys them out of my three boys. When I was growing up my step dad was a Christmas movie nuts and all the movies would play year round. "It's a Wonderful Life" would play all day on Christmas and I would have to hide in my room to get away from it. | | | | | | |

| | Well...we didn't get a VCR until I was a teen. I think we were the only family that had computers but not a VCR lol My step dad was a programmer until the industry moved that overseas. Then we were stuck watching, It's a Wonderful Life and A Christmas Story | | | |

| | I've only seen one, and that was "White Christmas" with Bing Crosby, Danny Kaye and Rosemary Cloony. Love that movie. They've been running "ELF" a lot here and I just don't like that at all. I wouldn't mind seeing "The Santa Clause" again. I would love to see the original "Miracle on 34th Street" again, also. Another one that's popular that I just don't like to watch is "A Christmas Story". I know a lot of people like it, but it just annoys me to no end. It's funny, because I do enjoy the first "Home Alone". | | | | | | |

| | Like I said, I just watched "A Christmas Story" for the very first time this year after hearing about how great it is for over 20 years. I enjoyed it but I don't expect to watch it over and over again, year after year like some do. I'll have to catch "Home Alone" again. I haven't seen that since it first came out. I don't think I ever saw the sequel at all. Annie | | | |

| | I saw that you said that you'd seen that movie, but I didn't realize it was the same one I was thinking of until I went looking online for it. That's when I saw the title was the same one. The sequel to "Home Alone" wasn't quite as good as the first (which is true of most sequels), but it was cute-ish. The first one was best. The mother's efforts to get home reminded me of "Trains, Planes and Automobiles" with Steve Martin and John Candy. That was also a Christmas release, I think. | | | |

| | For the most part, anniepa, I avoided the Christmas movies this year. I did, however, order my favorite, Home Alone, and watched it a few times. I spent most of my time listening to Christmas music and enjoying my little tree. | | | | | | |

| | I don't have a tree at my house - figured the cats would make short work of it...lol! However, my daughter has more cats that I do and she has one. She also has to redecorate it a dozen times a day! Annie | | | |

| | I did not get my fill of Christmas movies this year. I did see a number of them but not the one I usually watch every year. Some how this year, even though it was on for a full day, I missed out on getting the time to watch "A Christmas Story." One of these days I will just buy it so i don't have to wait for Christmas. | | | | | | |

| | I guess I can put you down as one of the millions of die-hard fans of "A Christmas Story"? Has the little boy who played Ralphie done anything else since then? Annie | | | |

| | Ya know Annie, I haven't seen all that many "Christmas" movies, even at Blockbusters, this year. I do enjoy a light Christmas movie from time to time but the selection has been pretty limited this year.

| | Nah Annie, I don't do that. Matter of fact, I think it was the day before Christmas I spotted a title with the word "Cabin" in it. Not seeing it on the shelf, I asked if they had a returned copy that hadn't been put away and I was told that it's an "Only for sale film." I really was in the mood to see a good holiday film, but I can't see buying something I'll watch once at best (if I don't fall asleep), especially since I have a monthly membership that costs me $37.44. | | | |

| | I watched one of the Charlie Brown Christmas movies, I also watched a lot of the cartoon Christmas movies. I didn't actually get to watch all the ones that I was rather interested in because I didn't find them on TV at all this year. I was actually a bit disappointed with that but there is always next year. | | | | | | |

| | That's one thing I didn't see this year - cartoon movies. I saw so many of them when my grandkids were younger I think I've still got them all memorized. Annie | | | |
