You'll shoot your eye out.

The location of the "kid with tongue stuck to pole" is the Victoria school in St Catharines.

A few years after Christmas Story PBS featured some of Jean Shepherd's other stories featuring Ralphie.

Christmas Vacation: "We're gonna have the hap, hap, happiest Christmas since Bing Crosby tap-danced with Danny fucking Kaye. And when Santa squeezes his fat white ass down that chimney tonight, he's gonna find the jolliest bunch of assholes this side of the nuthouse."

No love for Christmas Vacation or the Home Alone (NOT 3 or 4)? Oh well, to each his own, those are my favourites.

Four Christmases, from last year, starring Reese Witherspoon and Vince Vaughan was fairly funny and entertaining.

I agree any Christmas Vacation movie belongs on this list and I even have a soft spot for Home Alone(s)

But one there's no excuse for leaving out is A Muppet Christmas Carol or whatever it was called.

A Christmas Carol (Scrooge) with Alastair Sim

A Garfield Christmas

Also, there was a movie made in 1994 about the summer adventures of Ralphie.

No "A Muppet Christmas Carol"?

or even "A Muppet Family Christmas"?

But Love, Actually? Take off your skirt, Mike!

Christmas Vacation is a classic on par with A Christmas Story and don't forget Scrooged with Bill Murray

Yeah, I'm surprised that Christmas Vacation, Scrooged, and Disney's a Christmas Carol.

Considering it's -30 in Edmonton right now this is an excellent list, although I do have to agree with some of the posters above that Chirstmas Vacation and Scrooged should be there...

"Oh look! It's a toaster!!"

My favourite Christmas movie line..

Cheers!

Sorry, but number 1 on my list is the original "Miracle on 34th Street", with Edmond Gwynn, John Payne, Maureen O'Hara and a very young Natalie Wood. (There is a colourized version which is very well done if you don't like black and white.) The remakes were pathetic!
