~*Day Five*~

Yes, I'm a day late again. The hope is that I'll catch up tomorrow. And unlike like last time I was late, I actually have something to share. 

This post is all about Christmas movies. Despite the fact that there are easily hundreds, more keep being made each year. Honestly I think they should slow down on the production of them, as most are...less than wonderful. But once ever few years a Christmas movie is made that is more than wonderful, that captures the spirit of Christmas and becoming and instant classic. Today, I would like to share some of my favorite Christmas movie. A couple of them may be purely nostalgic, but they are still my favorite. 

To start things off, I have a classic movie that everyone knows about, that has been spoofed about a gillion times, yet not near as many people as you would think have watched it. The move is...

George Bailey as some big dreams. He wants to see the world, travel, and do great things, to live an extraordinary life. As time goes on though, George must give up his dreams, whether it's because he needs to stay with his family, take care of the women he loves, or support the town in his business. A point in his life comes when he begins to wish that his life had been different. Luckily, a angle desperately wanting his wings comes to help George, and reminds him that just because your life isn't extraordinary, doesn't mean it isn't wonderful.

The second movie is probably a favorite purely for nostalgic reasons.

And you would not believe how hard it was to find a picture of this movie! The main thing I got when I typed in "Jack Frost" was the live action movie and some tacky horror flick. When I was a little kid, I loved all the  claymation Christmas movies that they would show each year, on ABC family. Along with "Little Drummer Boy" and "The Year Without Santa Clause". I remember "Jack Frost" being my favorite though, perhaps with "A Miser Brothers' Christmas" as a close second.

This movie is a combination of nostalgia, and the twelve year old boy inside of me, perhaps one of my favorite Christmas comedies, it's...

I love both the original cartoon and the newer movie. As far as comedies go, I prefer it over "A Christmas Story," and other's that I can't remember the titles of. I think that it may be that I grew up with the Grinch story, and I have always loved the works of Dr. Seuss, even now when I'm older I have a soft spot for him.

There are many more where that came from, for modern, serious, and funny Christmas movies, but if I was to list all of my favorites, well, this would be a very long post.
