I have to ask, who in the forum likes/dislikes this movie. Me personally, I think its an all time classic, my wife on the other hand hates it. And just in case someone is not quit sure what movie this is, try this for a hint. "You'll shoot your eye out", or, "A genuine Red Ryder 200-shot carbine action air rifle".

    One of my all-time fav Xmas collections...I only wish I had a WS Version.

    Great scenes:

    "Deck the harrs with boughs of horry, fa rah rah rah rah rahhh..."

    "Frah-jile-eh...must be from Italy!"

    FYI, Target stores in New Jersey have a promo that has the new widescreen version paired with a miniature Ralphie bobble-head. It is the only place that I have seen this packaging. Picked it up for $17.99 last week.

    Love it!

    A bunch us just chipped in and bought my nephew the Leg Lamp for Christmas. His wife will be so pleased!

    Everytime I bundle up my daughter for school I can't help but say "I CAN'T GET MY ARMS DOWN!"

    I also love the little brother's laugh when he's eating with his face.

    A Christmas classic, I love it.

    When the lug nuts go flying..."FUUUUUUUUUGE"

    -or-

    1. "F-R-A-G-I-L-E must be Italian"
    2. "I think that says fragile"


    Peace Out~:D

    With it on TBS round the clock on Christmas, can hardly avoid watching it.

    Many very funny moments...

    I picked up my copy with bobble-head Ralphie at Target in Connecticut yesterday.

    Funny as hell!
