A great supporting cast, witty direction, and inspired sets and costumes bring the Who village, their culture, and their nemesis to life. Some have accused the show of including themes which were never in the book mostly: Christmas is too commercial.
But those themes are resolved in a way that keeps with the spirit of the original book and cartoon, so I don't mind so much. And the show is clever, beginning to end. Every movie that comes out with Christmas in the title or the description is hailed as a classic, but I think this will stand the test of time.

A Christmas Story Download Speaking of childhood, I was a small child in the s, not the s, but many of the adventures, hopes and dreams of Ralphie Peter Billingsly were reminiscent of my own childhood.
Gifts you got you didn't want, gifts you wanted you couldn't get, bullies, overcoats you couldn't move in, Christmas plans gone horribly awry, but somehow not ruining the holiday. What really makes this movie work, besides the humor, the great cast, and witty script, is how your own memories "fill in the gaps" as you watch young Ralphie attempt to negotiate the universal hazards of pre-adolescence.
Here's a present-day story from southeast Ohio that relates: an aging grandmother and grandfather I know recently had no one to visit with on Christmas evening, since the children and grandchildren had already visited and gone off to visit the "other sides" of their repective families.
So they figured they'd go into town and find a place to eat. The only restaurant open was a Mexican restaurant run by real Mexicans - the sort of place that couple would ordinarily avoid for gastronomic reasons. The help that night couldn't speak English, and "Ma and Pa" couldn't speak Spanish, so they just pointed at things that they thought looked edible. Their hosts were so gracious and the food was so good, that the next Christmas they made a point of eating there again, and it looks like a whole new tradition may be established.
If you don't know how this relates to this movie, you NEED to see the movie now. Note: On the other hand, if you have time to order and wait for the DVD, click here.
Kelsey Grammer's A Christmas Carol Download Kelsey Grammer, long the grumpy communicator of television show fame, takes on the role of the ultimate grump, in a faithful, if not totally inspired adaptation. Still, if you're snowed in, have high-speed internet, and want to watch A Christmas Carol , and be reminded of Dickens' original characters and message, this is a good way to go.

But Freddie could also be an inspired pantomimer capable of juxtaposing humor and pathos in what, on the surface, seems to be a simple comedy skit. That skill, and many more, made Red Skelton's Christmas shows memorable, and worth watching many years later.
Polar Express Download The book The Polar Express tells a simple story of a boy who boards a magical train that takes him to the North Pole in time to see Santa departing with his sleigh and reindeer on Christmas eve. The movie stays true to the art and spirit of the book. However it introduces many other characters, including other children, and a frenetic conductor voiced and "played" by Tom Hanks. The CGI animation is clever and often impressive, and the "story line" stays true to the basic themes of the book.
Alan Silvestri's sound track has some very memorable tunes, including the grand theme "It's the Spirit of the Season. National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation Download As may be expected from the title, this movie is neither reverent, nor entirely tasteful, but it is gut-splitting funny. It also gave a generation of folks who like over-the-top outdoor Christmas decorations a "role model": Clark Griswold.
This is one of Chevy Chase's funniest films. A great supporting cast includes Randy Quaid as a clueless relation whose attempts to help solve a Griswold family financial crisis make things infinitely worse. Is there a lot of "true Christmas spirit" or "meaning of Christmas" material in this movie?
No - the Griswold family muddles through the holidays, each with their own agenda, and no one getting exactly what they think they should get out of Christmas, just like most families. But it avoids the bitterness toward the holiday that some "postmodern" "Christmas comedies" make a point of including. And if you want to decorate like Clark, at least now you have low-voltage LED options that he didn't have. Thanksgiving Theme by Vince Guaraldi Trio.
