CRUCKS: Jeff & Joe’s Holiday Survival Guide: Movie Edition

-Holidays are meant to be spent w/ your family (Yes, even the ones you don’t like).
Here are some movies to help you get through it…
These films are guaranteed to help you drown out the mother-in-laws, whiny neices and nephews, and even that weird uncle.

Joe

    Scrooged (1988)
    A cynically selfish TV executive (Bill Murray) gets haunted by three spirits bearing lessons on Christmas Eve.
    Favorite Scene: When Bill Murray tells the prop master to staple the antlers to the dogs head.

Elf (2003)

    Cameron’s favorite Christmas movie.
    Fav scene: Dinner scene w/ “Elf Food Pyramid”

Gremlins (1984)

    Childhood favorite
    Fav scene: Gizmo gets wet, Spike is born!

Lethal Weapon (1987)

    Fav scene: Christmas tree shopping / Coke bust

Jeff

    A Christmas Story
    National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation (1989)
    And there’s a sequel apparently
    Christmas Vacation 2: Cousin Eddie’s Island Adventure

Joe’s Neighbors:

Listeners:

    SoFire: It’s a Wonderful Life
    Laura: A Muppet Christmas

GAMES:

    Rift – Joe got his holiday mount, dyed his clothes, and now we’re in Phase 2.
    He’s looking FAAAABUUUULOUS!
