I've never understood the Christmas Story thing.

It didn't exist when I was a kid and then people my age just pretended at some random point that it was a classic.




Aren't you liek 39-42 somewhere in that range? That was when it hit cult status. I remember watching it a bunch as a kid. And it being on TV. Not the 24-hour TBS thing, but enough to make an impression.

It may not have gotten to the 24 hour loop yet, but it was playing a ton in the 90s and early 2000s on TBS already.

Sup Freaux. I’m 45 and I feel the same as SFP. It’s not a bad movie but I just don’t get the infatuation. I think the poster mentioning the over saturation nailed it.

Again, not the worst Christmas movie imo but not in my top ten for sure.

I am 42 and it definitely was around when I was a kid.
