A lot of people love the film It's a Wonderful Life. Some people find it to be not so wonderful. Do you have a favorite holiday-themed movie? And if so, what is it?

I've tried to watch It's a Wonderful Life twice and I feel asleep both times.

My favorite holiday movie is Emmet Otter's Jug Band Christmas. I just love River Bottom Nightmare Band singing their song....


We take what we want
We do anything that we wish
We got no respect
For animal bird or fish

The grass does not grow
On the places where we stop and stand
River Bottom Nightmare Band

We know we're a mess
But I does not like to be clean
We don't brush our teeth
'Cause our toothache can help us stay mean

We don't wish to learn
But we hate what we don't understand
River Bottom Nightmare Band

When you see us comin'
You better startin' runnin'
We're always startin' trouble
And we're happiest when things are outta hand

Rivers are for boilin'
Parties are for spoilin'
We either like to sit and pout
Or else go out and terrorize our land
River Bottom Nightmare Band

We laugh in your face
Or we practice our growl and our sneer
We break up your place
We are dangerous when we are near

And when we are done with our song
Who will get the biggest hand?
Who?
River Bottom Nightmare Band!
River Bottom Nightmare Band!



I think my other  favorites are A Christmas Story and How the Grinch stole Christmas. "The Scott Farkus Affair" cracks me up every time. My favorite scene in the Grinch is when he slithers and slips up the trunk of the tree. Rudolph the Red -Nosed Reindeer is another favorite of mine. The stop action animation one. When I see the Burl Ives Snowman skimming along through the forest singing "Silver and Gold" it brings back so many memories.
