Just two more days until 24 hours of "A Christmas Story"

[sixone]

Best Christmas movie evar. Not preachy or sad, just good clean fun.

I have made it my Christmas tradition to watch A Christmas Story as much as I can - or until the wife threatens me if I don't turn it.

Is it safe to come out yet?

I honestly just do not like this film.. I've tried and tried to watch it. I've probably seen it 20+ times and I just don't enjoy it. People tell me something is wrong with me

lack of soul?

Unhappy Childhood?

General contempt for humankind?

stop me when I'm getting warm...

Dude, you are old as dirt; how could you have not seen A Christmas Story?

I'm Canadian.

I'm Canadian and I've seen this movie at least twice during the Christmas season, every year since I was 10 (I'm now 25).

I visited the actual house in the movie, now that I go to school near Cleveland. Pretty cool

Watched it for the first time yesterday. Thought it was "meh". Christmas Vacation and It's a Wonderful Life are far better movies in my opinion.

"Fra-gee-lay.... Hmm must be Italian"

^ That might be the best line in the movie. There are so many good ones though, it is hard to give a definitive answer.

I honestly can't watch it any more this year. My relatives are so obsessed with it, that they had the DVD playing nearly 48 straight hours starting on Thanksgiving. I love the movie, don't get me wrong, but there was very big Football games to be watched. I'm Christmas Storied out for this year (But I still love quoting it )

I watched it for the first time the other day. Didn't care for it.

If he waited for the glue to cure it probably would've been ok. Of course in the late 40's it was probably casein based which is not very effective for thin materials under a somewhat compressive load.
