Every now and then I fall out into open air just to feel the wind, rain and everything.
And though the hum and sway gets me down
, I'll find the way to peace and openness.

Ralphie: Oooh fuuudge!
Ralphie as Adult: Only I didn't say "Fudge." I said THE word, the big one, the queen-mother of dirty words, the "F-dash-dash-dash" word!
Mr. Parker: What did you say?
Ralphie: Uh, um...
Mr. Parker: That's... what I thought you said. Get in the car. Go on!
Ralphie as Adult: It was all over - I was dead. What would it be? The guillotine? Hanging? The chair? The rack? The Chinese water torture? Hmmph. Mere child's play compared to what surely awaited me.

Never seen it.

Queens Of The Stone Age-Someone's In The Wolf

Once you're lost in twillights's blue
You don't find your way, the way finds you...

Tempt the fates, beware the smile
It hides all the teeth, my dear,
What's behind them...

So glad you could stay
Forever

He steps between the trees, a crooked man
There's blood on the blade
Don't take his hand

You warm by the firelight, in twilight's blue
Shadows creep & dance the walls
He's creeping too..

So glad you could stay
Forever

It's playing right now on TBS in marathon form. I'd never seen it either but I watched a few scenes here and there in between Chris Rock... and damn, let me tell you, the daisy air rifle has NO kickback, which is why they train kids on it, and certain as hell not enough to give you a black eye. Also a 9 year old boy left unattended with that thing would jam the bolt and break his fingers in the air pump within 5 minutes, guaranteed.

Okay, but that's more in the action genre. It just happens to take place around Christmas. It's not about Christmas.

DAMMIT!

I've been waiting WEEKS for this topic to come up, and Johny beat me to the punchline.

But it's true, everybody knows the best Christmas movie ever is Die Hard.

I've only watched parts of this movie because I got bored.

Best Christmas movie is "How the Grinch Stole Christmas"... the ORIGINAL cartoon one, not the stupid Jim Carrey one.

Wasn't he using something metal as a target? I thought that it wasn't kickback, but that the pellet ricocheted and hit his glasses.

Also, the best Christmas movie ever is Some Kind of Monster.

I'm pretty sure Home Alone ranks up there as one of the best Christmas movies ever. Heck, one of the best movies ever made. No, no the greatest peace of art ever created by man.
