I will be the corny old guy because someone needs to be. But I also love a good laugh.
One of my favorite all time movies is also my favorite Christmas movie. And I did not like Ted Turner's colorization.
the original black and white release of "It's a Wonderful Life" with Jimmy Stewart and Donna Reed. Two important lessons of that movie. One is obvious. What a difference one person makes in the world. George Bailey gets the unexpected view of what the world in his area would be like without him.
The second lesson, not lost on me, is the strength and the love his wife has for him. That is what marriage is all about. For her to throw her pride and image to the wind and go out in a blizzard and ask for help for her husband. She is the rock star, here. That is the part that always puts a lump in my throat. She did not have to do any of that but she did.
But I also like "National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation."
"Lethal Weapon" has infected and taken over the song "Jingle Bell Rock" in my mind. I am stuck with the range target with a smiley face but at least it blots out the vision of Mel Gibson's buttocks.
Of course, "Die Hard." "Come to LA, she said. We'll have a few laughs."
My wife watches all the Hallmark Christmas movies during the season.
