“Stuuuuuhhhhkkkkkkkk!!! Stuuuuuhhhhkkkkkkkk!!!…”

Darleen Love on Letterman signing “Baby, Please Come Home”

And, “Lights please… ‘And there were shepherds abiding in a field…’”

Those are classic in my book but I have come to really enjoy The Trailerpark Boys!!

There is always a soft spot in my heart for Opus!!

And if I am feeling kind of evil, Bad Santa was written by an alcoholic because most of that shizz happened in our family thanks to my dad.

(eggnog, I luv the stuff)

You meant to say "National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation"?

I can't get enough of that one.

Merry Christmas to you all!

"Can I refill your eggnog for you? Get you something to eat? Drive you out to the middle of nowhere and leave you for dead?"

So casually delivered, one of the funniest lines ever.

Merry Christmas !!

Same here. Was even watching it this evening.

BBC1 just showed Inside Out and I stumbled upon it while I was switching channels because of commercials during the movie Space Jam (which I've already seen a couple of times). I started tearing up around what I guess was about 20 minutes in and my blurry vision didn't stop until the movie ended.

And I'm over 40, male, and generally skip all emotional drama scenes in other movies and TV shows. It was funny, clever, joyful and sad in a beautiful way. Can't remember the last time an animated movie made this kind of impression on me. (glad I just got a groceries delivery with new tissues, perfect timing)

Didn't know where to share my excitement about this movie so I just picked this thread. Easily the best animated movie I've seen in decades. Probably the best I've seen ever, period. Glad I didn't switch back to Space Jam.

I don't have an account on IMDB, but anyone here who does, you can give it a 10 for me. (figuratively speaking, or you can do it for real if feeling like doing so)

One of the reviews on IMDB (the one at the top) mentions "and ending which is incredibly satisfying and perhaps might require some Kleenex." Well, not only the ending in my case.

Who needs yet another movie about Christmas.

I'm a little late to the party.
While Christmas Vacation & A Christmas Story Fight for #1 every year at our house, Scrooged, with Bill Murray is always right behind them.

God I love Carol Kane. LOL
