Merry Christmas everyone! For those of you that have long distances to travel or still have some work left to do before your vacation, Steve and I have come together to discuss Christmas films. Specifically, why A Christmas Story works so well and others seem to fall so short. Unfortunately we dip ever so slightly into religion and politics, but hopefully you’ll tolerate our incredibly brief and superficial dip into the otherwise forbidden realm of controversy.

Speaking of, as much as I love Die Hard, and as much as I love any excuse to watch it, I cannot really view it as a proper Christmas film. I found the meme funny as well, but at this stage it’s gone too far. Nevertheless, there are plenty of other films that take place on Christmas that are worth rewatching at any time of year. If you want to use Christmas as an excuse, however, then feel free.

I hope you enjoy the episode as much as we enjoyed recording it.

What are your thoughts on Christmas movies? Please comment on the Facebook page or e-mail ramblepak64 at gmail dot com with your thoughts, and maybe we’ll read them on the show.
