DANG! this is a long movie....
So I started watching this movie, A CHRISTMAS STORY, last night as our guests were arriving. It was our background....sound off... for the evening.
It is still on.... go figure.... |
lol... I had the same problem with "It's a Wonderful Life" last year.
|
It's a Wonderful Life was on last night, for what seemed like an eternity. Closer investigation revealed that there were commercials every 8 minutes or so...
|
The Wizard of OZ - hubby made me watch it half way through and when he found out they were playing back to back he made me watch the first part too. evil.
|
24 hours of a Christmas Story is a must in my house! I love that movie!! I torture my family with it every year, so it's entertaining on many levels for me!!

Marathon Movies
TBS has been doing a 24 hour marathon of "A Christmas Story" every year :shocksn: It's a cute movie, but once a year is enough :dizzy:
NBC owns the rights to "It's a Wonderful Life", so they show it a couple of times during the Christmas Season. I remember when it used to be on just about every channel on cable! :hohoho: |
i said exactly that about Wonderful Life just last night! Its the first time I have watched it entirely and by the end I was crying like a baby! But commercials every eight minutes AND at least eight commercials in a row each time!
I enjoy "A Christmas Story" but I don't enjoy it to the level of some people. |
My boyfriend cannot believe that I have never seen A Christmas Story from start to finish, even though they play it 24 hours on xmas.
|
That movie is a classic, probably my favourite!
|
I love It's a Wonderful Life it has been a fave of mine forever--I agree there are way too many commercials....
I have never been able to make it through A Christmas Story--I have seen bits and pieces. I heard on the radio something about a convention every year and visiting the actual house for tours...were they making that up???? |
Nope. It's true. Some guy bought the house and spent big $$$ fixing it up just like the movie including the "major prize" fishnet leg lamp.
|
we always leave the tbs marathon on in our house, even if the sound is turned wayyy down, we leave it on in the background for traditions sake :xcheer:

Last year, or a couple of years ago, there was some network that did a 24-h marathon of Miracle on 34th St, alternating a black-and-white showing with a colorized one, but I didn't see it listed this year
