It's a great Christmas movie, TBS just ruined it by playing it nonstop. If TBS stopped doing that and it was shown once or twice a year, it would MCSGA.

Are you kidding? It is a perfect Christmas movie. It captures all the excitement and joy through a kid's eyes.

PS The cast is perfect

It's an awesome movie but I totally get how it gets old being rammed down our throats.

PS it's also showing exclusively at Franklin theater on the square here in TN.

Its like the Macys Thanksgiving Day parade for me and my family every year. We make a big deal about it because it puts us in the spirit, and then it starts and we watch 15 minutes of it, and then nobody pays attention to it the rest of the day.

Agreed......but if I turn it on......I have to watch the whole thing.

But I agree it's fairly overrated

I don't like it because it's good. I like it because I watch it for Christmas every year.

a man, who hates flying, travels across the country to be with his estranged wife and children on Christmas Eve. Along the journey faces a trial and tribulations. A real grinch of a man spoils a Christmas celebration. In the end, the Christmas spirit prevails.

Today's youth will never know the joy of discovering A Christmas Story, buried in the HBO Summer daytime schedule, and asking your friends, "Did you see that Christmas movie on HBO? The one with the kid with the BB gun?"

Back before it was shoved down everyone's throat from birth, like cranberry sauce on Thanksgiving.

Apparently there's a lot of people in here who don't know how to change the channel


Great movie that I electively watch a few times during the season and avoid any 24 hour running of it.

Brazil is actually a better Christmas movie than Die Hard. Brazil is full of Christmas tie ins but that tends to get overlooked.

That's because it's just a weird movie.

Sounds like some people never got to own a Red Ryder BB gun as a kid.


Or they didn't get their Ovaltine with the little orphan Annie decoder ring.
