I have a favorite Christmas movie now. Top Story - November 2024.
I have been in love with Christmas movies for most of my life. My mother's favorite was always "How The Grinch Stole Christmas" and since I couldn't pick a favorite, I just agreed with her. There were too many beautiful Christmas movies like "Miracle on 34th Street" and "A Christmas Carol" and "It's a Wonderful Life" and more. How could anyone pick a favorite? I've been watching Christmas themed movies for over 50 years and I've seen so many that were miraculous, and I've also seen some that were disappointing.

My Review of "National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation"
National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation is a movie that came out back in 1989. It's a movie I remember watching when I was a kid and kind of got me into the National Lampoon franchise. This may be nostalgia speaking for me, but I always have a fun time watching this movie.

The Big "I" Word
When my husband walks into a room, the TV goes on. If the TV isn't on he looks at you very suspect. He's peering at you with pure concern in his eyes, "What's wrong?". It took me a long time to get use to this. I remember one time he came in and I was lying on the couch in the dark. I still smile at his reaction. He said almost fearful, "Are you okay? What's going on? Why is the TV off? Why are you being weird?". I started laughing. I am the millennial in our relationship. Of all the weird things I could do in a day, this was not one I would have thought of as weird.

Villainess Review: Nicola Caruso (Matlock)
When I heard about the Matlock reboot many months ago, I was all in from the get-go. For the life of me, I don't know why people diss reboots. "Hollywood can't think of any original ideas," they always say. I have news for you: nothing in TV and movies is an original idea. Everything comes from something else, or somebody else. Here's how I see reboots. I think today's generation watched the older generation's shows and movies, liked it, and then curiosity set in. "What would it look like now, with a different cast?" That's how the reboots came in.

Bank Under Siege Netflix Review: Don't Expect Money Heist
Recently a new drama series has come on Netflix called Bank Under Siege which some viewers are considering a masterpiece like Money Heist. Now I would like to make them aware of the reality that this show is not at all like Money Heist. Yes, there is a heist drama in it but it is not Money Heist.
