Christmas Movies!

[lightofmylife]

So I've never really paid much attention to How The Grinch Stole Christmas before (I'm not really a Dr Seuss fan), but my Grandson Max was in town a few weeks ago and we all went to the new one. The colors were amazing, btw. Anyways, am I correct in that the Grinch becomes Born Again at the end? I knew he came "good" all these years but only this time it made me cry seeing he actually accepted Christ into his heart...the God shaped hole. I loved it!! I enjoyed that they actually sang CHRISTmas songs too instead of coming up with some "holiday" songs. Just my humble opinion.

I didn't see the new one is it animated? I saw the one in 2000 with Jim Carrey as the Grinch. The Grinch did become a new person. I thought it was a cute movie.

I was not a fan of the Jim Carrey version (too strange "Dr Suess-ish" (ha) for me. This one is animated and very colorful.

We have been watching Christmas movies on Hallmark Channel. The Christmas Train is real good, I'll Be Home For Christmas, and The Mistletoe Inn.

Yes some of those movies are pretty good.

I like The Christmas Card.

DH says I should have lived during the 1940s because I prefer the movies, music, clothes, and decor of that era, so my two favorite Christmas movies are It's A Wonderful Life (1946) and A Christmas Story (takes place during the 1940s).

I guess as I slowly start aging, my viewing habits are changing and I watch too many Hallmark Christmas movies to admit. I like the simplicity of the movies, easy to follow, and very family oriented.

My wife walked in on me while watching one of these Hallmark movies, and asked me if I needed help in

I just noticed this thread is in the Ladies section. Sorry for the intrusion. And no, my gender is not fluid.

Last year I admitted to liking "The Santa Clause". I also like Buddy the Elf, Christmas with the Kranks, and Jingle all the Way... and Olive, the Other Reindeer holds a special place in my heart.

Andy, we have to talk! First of all, the only reason I'm on this thread is because I saw that you had posted here from the Recent Posts column on the front page of RF. Yes, they are very family oriented. And yes, they are easy to follow, but only because they are all the same! Let's face it, the story line is totally predictable, the actors are pretty much all in their 20's and look like they never even had a zit! This time of year, it's hard to get away from them, and at this very minute, we are into the second one today, Kim has nodded off and it's only about 8:30! If she doesn't wake up pretty soon, I'm changing the channel to old Star Trek reruns.
