Yeah, I need to have Christmas Vacation on Blu-Ray. That and the first film (which I have on DVD). They’re family staples. I still love Chevy Chase and I don’t give a fuck if people think he’s an asshole. He’s my asshole and I will always love him no matter that awful shit he’s been in.
These feature the film in 4K, Blu-Ray, and digital. I have older versions of each, but these new editions are just terrific.
The Polar Express is my favourite Christmas movie.
It’s sooo good.
Oh dear lord no!
These were made just for you!
Not a chance 😂
I’ve seen all of these movies except for “National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation.”
I especially loved “Elf” since it was very funny, especially when he fought with the fake Santa at the mall, and drank an entire large bottle of coke, which caused him to burp for a long time.
I found “A Christmas Story” to be just okay. It wasn’t until after I watched it that I discovered that Ralphie’s memories were exaggerated, thus not accurate. Also, he is 9 years old in his memories. But hey, everyone makes mistakes.
As for the one holiday film I haven’t seen, I am assuming you saw it. What did you think of it?
“National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation” is a blast! It’s a full-blown goofy comedy that is infinitely quotable. Great collection of characters and loaded with laughs. We watch it every Christmas season!
Cool. Perhaps, I will check it out.
