Like so much that I loved when I was young. It's funny, so much of the stuff my father would watch he would build up, and I would wonder what he saw in it. Now I'm wondering what I ever saw in some of these things.

I guess I sound like the Grinch. I think I'll go watch A Charlie Brown Christmas. Now that one still holds up, at least for me.

I've had quite a few family nights with the movies I watched as a kid in the 80s. I think The Princess Bride, The Sandlot, and Goonies still stand up well. I'm missing a few. Gremlins and Beetljuice do not. Cheesy effects are glaring.

All of the times that I've watched A Christmas Story & I never noticed those cards on Ralphie's headboard...

I'm a sucker for that movie, mostly because it's based on the childhood memories of Jean Shepherd, who grew up in my hometown of Hammond, IN.
