If I have missed this year's broadcast of "It's Christmas, Charlie Brown", I will be bummed.....love Linus reciting the gospel and that sadly sweet little tree.

I've never seen A Wonderful Life. Will have to change that some day.

WHAT!?! It is the classic "feel good" movie of all time! And I never fail to shed a tear or two.

The interesting thing is it performed poorly at the box office at the time of its initial release and was considered a major disappointment to the studio. Today, it is one of the most beloved Christmas movie, or any movie.

I hope no studio gets it in their head to do a remake. If the original was considered a major disappointment, a remake might be considered a disaster.

I was kinda bummed. Got home from my wife's work Christmas party, turned on TV and they were singing Auld Land Syne.

On the other hand, her Christmas party had an open bar.

It is on again on Christmas Eve, you still have one more chance!

Got to balance it with A Christmas Story, Christmas Eve.

A Christmas Story. After seeing it, I spend the next few days singing Deck the Halls, as sung in a chinese restaurant.

If you were, say, the Coen Bros. and you DID decide that the world was ready for a remake of IAWL, who would you cast in the main rolls?
