All right people lets hear them, I'll start.

"I want an official Red Ryder, carbine action, two-hundred shot range model air rifle!" A Christmas Story

and my all time favorite,

I'd like Frank Shirley, my boss, right here tonight. I want him brought from his happy holiday slumber over there on Melody Lane, with all the other rich people, and I want him brought right here with a big ribbon on his head. And, I want to look him straight in the eye and I want to tell him what a cheap, lying, no good, rotten, floor-flushing, low-life, snake-licking, dirt-eating, inbred, overstuffed, ignorant, blood-sucking, dog-kissing, brainless, di**less, hopeless, heartless, fat-a**, bug-eyed, stiff-legged, spotty-lipped, worm-headed, sack of monkey sh** he is! Hallelujah! Holly Sh**! Where's the Tylenol? "National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation"

"Yuletide's a b**** ain't it?" -the black dooda from Surviving Christmas


:-)

I'll second the Christmas Story entry with:

"He looks like a pink nightmare!"

Can't wait for the old 24 hour marathon, that's for sure...and I own the damn movie!

I third A Christmas Story... " I triple dog dare yah"...


Dave

I'll have to give a forth thumbs up on A Christmas Story Movie.

"OH NO, I SHOT MY EYE OUT!!"

" IT'S, IT'S, IT'S SOAP POIOUSNING"

Ba-Humbug!!!

"Scrooge was better than his word . . . . He became as good a friend, as good a master, as good a man as the good old City knew, or any other good old city, town, or borough in the good old world."

Clark: "Can I refill your eggnog for ya? Get ya something to eat? Drive you out to the middle of nowhere, leave ya for dead?
Cousin Eddie: Naw, I'm doing just fine Clark."

George Bailey: "You sit around here and you spin your little webs and you think the whole world revolves around you and your money. Well, it doesn't, Mr. Potter. In the whole vast configuration of things, I'd say you were nothing but a scurvy little spider."

Could go on all day...

Shaun

Mine is from the Home Alone movies when the kid has the TV on and it's some gangster movie where the gangster says


before opening up with a tommy gun

:-)

My favourite is from a cartoon featuring a sexual harrassment suit against Santa.... picture it... Santa in the dock, and the prosecutor telling the magistrate, "Your honour, he called my client it not once, not twice, but three times! That's right! HO, HO, HO!" :-)

Mine is from the Xmas movie of Christmas Vacation.

Actually I have three from this movie,

"It's the gift that keeps on giving all year long"

"Hap Happiest Christmans, Jesus Christ, Hallelua (I think that is how it is spelt)"

"Sh*tters' full"

I love that movie. My wife and I watch every year. Now that we have a new son, he will enjoy it with us.

Later,

Roses are red

We'd all be Jewish

"You'll shoot your eye out kid!"

Detective John McClane: You throw quite a party. I didn't realize they celebrated Christmas in Japan.

Joseph Takagi: Hey, we're flexible. Pearl Harbor didn't work out so we got you with tape decks.

Die Hard (1988)

On the subject of The Christmas Story, have you folks seen the action figures and such they have for it now? A local electronics store is going out of business and I was checking it out last night. They have a figure of Ralphy in the pink bunny suit, holding his Red Rider, with a big S#%t eating grin on his face. They've got a table sized leg lamp, and some tree decorations of the leg lamp as well. They probably have more but that's all I saw.

As for quotes can't beat the old stand by, "God bless us, every one." As an aside can you imagine how Charles Dickens must think about how many ways his story has been redone?

While I can't think of any quotes from it one of my favorites is The Muppets Christmas Carol. There are some great scenes and lines in it.

More on this subject, the comic strip Adam @ Home by Brian Basset is running an update of sorts this week.

My Grandma got run over by a reindeer
It happened just last Christmas Eve
Now some of you might say that there's no Santa
But me and Grandpa we believe

Bah Humbug!

Right there with you Dave! :-)

George Bailey: "Murry Crissmass, Mr. Potter!!"
Potter: "And a Happy New Year to you- IN JAIL!!!"
:-)

A couple from Die Hard 2:

While crawling around in an air vent:

John McClane: "Just once, I'd like a regular, normal Christmas. A little eggnog... a f***in' Christmas tree... a little turkey. But, no. I gotta crawl around in this motherf***in' tin can."

and

John McClane: "Oh man, I can't f***ng believe this. Another basement, another elevator. How can the same s**t happen to the same guy twice?"

Merry Christmas
Ed

I saw this one on Weblogs :

"You will decorate for Christmas; you will do it with a smile on your face, and a carol in your heart, or so help me, I will shove mistletoe so far up your scrooge a$$, you'll be sneezing berries for a week."

Now that's a quote worth remembering! :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)

Hear hear Dave....

Bah...HUMBUG!!

Works for me...
