    Okay, we've talked about this one before, but I say a new year let's start fresh.

    Who has seen this movie and do you like it, is it a yearly favorite and do you watch the 24 hour TBS marathon?

    I don't watch the marathon unless I visit somebody with it on and even then. I think the main appeal of this movie is nostalgia. It's got enough of it to make it watchable although I DO find it extremely overrated. Out of all the holiday movies, while this one isn't horrible, it's not Top 10 either.

    I don't need to watch the marathon (or even wait until this time of year) because I have the DVD. It's just one funny movie because of Jean Shepherd.

    Every year TBS shows A Christmas Story back to back to back for 24 hours starting on Christmas Eve.

    Have always loved this movie growing up, and yes I do catch the marathon. I don't watch the entire marathon but will watch the movie at least 1 time.
