With less than one week to go until Christmas, we know what's on everyone's mind-CHRISTMAS MOVIES! That's right folks, it's that time of year again...time to snuggle up with some popcorn, a cup of hot chocolate, and your favorite Christmas movies. Here's a list of some of our favorites to keep you (and more importantly, the kids!) entertained over Christmas break!
1) It's A Wonderful Life
If you don't know this movie yet, you've obviously been living under a boulder for the last 50 years. See it now.
2) The Santa Clause
Tim Allen stars in this movie about a curmudgeonly divorcee who is shocked to find Santa Clause on his roof-and even more suprised when Santa disappears, leaving his suit behind! To appease his son, he tries on the suit, only to find that he's now officially the new Santa!
3) The Grinch Who Stole Christmas
Though the Jim Carrey version is certainly fun, it's nothing compared to the old-school cartoon. Do yourself a favor this Christmas and go back to basics!
4) Home Alone
What kid doesn't dream of having the run of his house? In this classic Christmas film starring Macauley Caulkin, that's exactly what happens. You and your kids will laugh and cheer as Kevin (Caulkin) learns about grocery shopping, after-shave, and home security.
5) A Charlie Brown Christmas
Who doesn't love the world's biggest Negative Nancy? This story about Charlie Brown and his loser-ish Christmas tree is a classic not to be missed!
6) Elf
OK, yes, we all agree-Will Ferrell can be kind of annoying. But he puts his annoying sense of humor to good use as Buddy, a human raised by Christmas elves who travels to New York to find his father. Only problem is, his father's on the naughty list! Although this film does has it's moments of extreme cheesiness, it's still good clean fun for the whole family!
7) A Muppet Christmas Carol
Michael Caine stars along Kermit, Miss Piggy, and Fozzywig in this musical twist on Charles Dickens' classic Christmas story. You and the kids will both love this newer rendition of an old story. (And besides, who doesn't love watching Miss Piggy every chance they get???)
All these films and more are available at our McArthur store-stop by today and pick up your favorite, and get ready to be in the Christmas spirit!
