National Lampoon's Christmas

[ArtZ]

Todd:
Hey Griswold. Where do you think you're gonna put a tree that big?

Clark:
Bend over and I'll show you.

Todd:
You've got a lot of nerve talking to me like that Griswold.

Clark:
I wasn't talking to you.

We’ll be happier than when Bing Crosbey danced with Danny ****in’ Kaye

 

[Klappco]

I'd love to edit a mashup of Christmas Vacation and Die Hard.

 

[Marine0811]

Wouldn’t that be something?

 

[Bobcat]

Beverly DeAngelo..... Mmmmm.
BeBe Neuwirth..... Mmmm.

And the cat under the chair - woof!

Too much to take in with this movie at one sitting..... so funny on many levels.

Which character did BeBe play?

This thread was too good, so we watched it -- again -- last night. I love the t(h)rashings of neighbours "Todd & Margo", even the scene @ which the SWAT squad, for no apparent (good/explained) reason, bust down their front door.

And, per ususal, while the entire cast is superb, I was again consumed w/ joy @ every scene involving "Uncle Lewis" (Bill Hickey) and "Aunt Bethany" (Mae Questel).

Still another wonderful scene:

Cast: Sings (short version of) the "Star-Spangled Banner" as (plastic) Santa's sleigh & reindeer soar through the skies, propelled by (yet another) explosion caused by yet another instance of Uncle Lewis lighting up a cigar.

Aunt Bethany: @ the conclusion of the anthem hollers "Play ball!"

Which character did BeBe play?

Think he was referring to Julia Louis-Dreyfuss who nailed her role as "Margo".

“You couldn’t hear a dump truck driving through a nitroglycerin plant.”

Best line ever!

The "Uncle Lewis" character gets so many great lines. Recall @ The Christmas Dinner Table when he shouts at spouse (Aunt) Bethany, who is very hard of hearing, making sure she can also read his lips, "The blessing, they want you to say THE BLESSING!". IIRC, he even points at his lips as he SHOUTS out the phrase.

LMAO! My wife wears 'hearing enhancements' and when we're sitting together having holiday meals with family I cant help but think of Uncle Lewis and Aunt Bethany.
I guess life really does imitate art. : D

Just saw on the news that a family in Lodi,Wisconsin resurrected that scene with Eddy emptying his sump tank into the sewer. They dressed a manakine like Eddy holding a beer in one hand and the hose in the other. The hose is coming from a mobile home. Only in America.

That is funny, fantasizing about the wrong lady all these years.

Wonderful Movie! I may watch it 2 times a year.

Thank heavens it wasn't Roseanne Barr!

Eddie looks at Russ (Come on boy , ohh ohh ohh, let’s go find your sister).

"Oh, he's just yakkin on a bone. He's got it up, he's alright now."

If nobody has noticed, the red haired lady is Doris Roberts, the over bearing mom from Everybody Loves Raymond.

In honor of this movie, I will be giving my family members boxes of green Jello and cats this year.
