The typical christmas films I remember from when I was a kid tend not to be shown these days- Zulu, the Great Escape, Laurence of Arabia, Spartacus, etc...
Damn I loved Zulu./

Oh yeah, in the days before commercial television (or in the early days when commercial stations had little cash) monumental movies were on during holidays: Ben Hur, Gone with the Wind, Spartacus, El Cid, Lawrence of Arabia, Gandhi, Dr Zhivago ... I love them all.

I have Emmet Otter on DVD for some reason.  Think my sister gave it to me a few years ago.

PDH!

The original animated Grinch.
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

Thanks for including an "other" category. I want to vote but not for any of those hack jobs. :angry:

For some reason, gays can't resist acting like junior high girls.
