Holiday Movies!



So it's the time of year when I start watching a plethora of holiday movies.  Most are obvious; others, for whatever reason, I've associated with the holidays.  I can't possibly put them in order of favorites, they all make my heart happy in lots of ways!

1.  The Muppet Family Christmas -- I bought this bad boy on VHS from eBay I was so desperate for it!  (The above video is this movie...in full length!  You're so lucky!)

2.  Home Alone 1 & 2--duh.

3.  The Santa Clause--The scenes in the North Pole are just too good.

4.  Little Women--The one from the 90s with Winona Ryder.  It was only in the last couple of years that I got over Jo not marrying Teddy.  Mostly because I read the book, but now I love Friedrich.  Really, the origin of Team Edward vs. Team Jacob comes from this story: Team Laurie vs. Team Friedrich. 

5.  Holiday Inn-- good ole fashioned fun.   

6.  Home for the Holidays--This is actually based around Thanksgiving and a dysfunctional family.  

7.  Santa Claus--Quite possibly the real Santa.  

8.  The Family Stone--Now this feels like a real family.  

9.  The Muppet Christmas Carol--Okay this is my favorite.  I actually think this take on the classic tale is better than any live theater performance I've ever seen...yeah, I said it. 

So it looks like most are distinctively holiday based and I could go on, but long posts tend to bore me.  haha.  

Happy Almost Friday!
