O/T:- Best Christmas film

[LaxtonLad]

When our kids were little we loved watching "The Snowman" and we still do.

Going back in time and a film I first saw back around Christmas time in 1956 yes 1956, was Walt Disney's Davy Crockett, King of the Wild Frontier...even had a Davy Crockett hat...

Years on I bought the DVD from Amazon I like to watch it around Christmas time (although the wife and grandkids are not too keen) But this year because of COVID and self isolating I can fill my boots...

Scrooge I think, with Alistair Sim. Although I like National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation, too. Can't be doing with Elf.

This is it for me. You're 3 for 3.

Throw Bad Santa into the mix and that's all the Christmas movies I need.

Haven’t seen those other films but I think it’s a German/Austrian tradition.

Personally I think the idea of Santa’s evil brother coming to scare naughty kids is a good and one we should adopt.

Bah Humbug

My mum made me and my friends Davy Crockett hats out of an old fur coat in the mid 50s, happy days.

Bad Santa, yes, brilliant.

Having looked at it again you could be right! It was later a Kwik Save if I remember rightly too. I'll double check.

EDIT: Yep, you're spot on...this is The Futurist. The one in Sherwood I posted in error was The Metropole

That is definitely Sherwood Kwik Save, gym now, of course.

Yep the old Metropole. The pic in your quote is the Futurist in Basford. I remember shopping regularly in the Kwik Save in Sherwood so goodness knows why I made this booboo.
