Scrooged is just ok. Karen Allen is ugly.

Karen Allen


And not that I think she was a bad actress, it's just inexplicable she got some of these parts without delving into her background.

She was involved with Stephen Bishop, but whether that relationship started on the set of Animal House, or was before or after - I'm not sure.

She started with Lee Stasberg in 1977 - Landis wanted to fill out the cast of Animal House with unknowns, so he found Allen and Bacon (Circle in the Square Theater School) in the local theaters of NYC. Another tidbit, like many HS/College comedies - particularly of that era - the actors were way older than their characters would have been, generally - mostly late 20s/early 30s in Animal House - Bacon was one of the rare age-appropriate, being 19 or so when Animal House was filmed.

I like Bill Murray too much and dislike Chevy Chase too much to pick Christmas Vacation over Scrooged, although I do enjoy Christmas Vacation.

Personally, Christmas Vacation is a must watch Christmas movie around my house.


Yep I watch it every year as well. Gets quoted quite a bit while setting up the tree.

In fact, I drank my scotch out of my moose glass last night.

Best white elephant gift I've ever ended up with.
