@booger saidAccording to one much-loved but now supposedly departed poster here:
I really dislike the anonymous nature of some features here.
The law says I can face my accuser.
I wasn't alerted...I'm just making a point.
Removing anonymity from thumbs and alerts would lead to Stalinism.
I kid you not.
@divegeester saidSo in summary, it seems you finally got to watch it AT Christmas, but have already seen it about 20 times already. Is that right?
Finally getting to watch it this Christmas.
ITV4 for UK people.
I think I saw one of the sequels with the young guy from Third Rock, but it didn't leave much of an impression.
@booger saidI agree. No sense of tried and true dramatic arcs.
He never gets hit.
Ever.
Lame as F.
Invincibility is just not that interesting on its own.
Getting beaten to a pulp and rising from that pulp to fight one's way through all the minions and show the End Boss what's what -- that's how it's done.

I think the colorized finale of "White Christmas" is very nice, but some parts of the movie leading up to that were too annoying.
I have never seen "It's a Wonderful Life" and do not wish to.
The first Addams Family movie with Julia and Huston was very Christmas-y in its way. 😉
