Define "Classic"

A few weeks ago (you know, before Christmas), I heard a disturbing conversation on the radio about voting for holiday classics - the disturbing part being that movies like "A Christmas Story," "Christmas Vacation," "Home Alone," & "Elf" topped the list.

Classics? Really? These are considered classics?

Come on now. They may be movies that everyone watches, but they aren't ones that have withstood the passing of the years - ones seen by our parents and grandparents.

So, how about these? Have you seen these holiday classics...?

• It's a Wonderful Life
• White Christmas
• The Bells of St. Mary's (& Going My Way)
• Holiday Inn
• Little Women (any year/version)
• Christmas in Connecticut
• How the Grinch Stole Christmas (cartoon version)
• Any of the ABC claymation/cartoon movies like Santa Claus is Coming to Town or The Year Without a Santa
• Muppet Family Christmas - you can see the whole thing on YouTube here! (This is a personal family favorite!)

If you haven't seen some of the movies above, I urge you to head to your nearest library, RedBox, or NetFlix account and check them out.

You won't be sorry - these truly are the classics.

Also, have you ever seen Claymation Christmas? If not, do you have about 30 minutes to spare to see it?...Enjoy!
