#1 The Greatest Christmas Movie
Alright. I have been brought into a discussion of the greatest holiday movie of all time. The clear winner, A Christmas Story. Or the glorious, but not quite as awesome, Die Hard. Havoc, heathen athiest that he is, has chosen poorly. What do you chose?

'Many fine old manuscripts in that place, I believe. Without price, I'm told.'-'Yes, sir. Certainly worthless, sir.'-'Is it possible you misunderstood what I just said, Commander?'

....Die Hard can no longer be the greatest Christmas movie ever.
I was just changing channels and ran into "The Cleveland Show" parodying Die Hard......for Christmas.
GDI Seth McFarlane...you ruin another good thing,...

This is why I don't watch the Cleveland show. It only encourages them.
Also when my family gathered and decided to watch a Christmas movie yesterday? Diehard. If it's good enough for Deaf Pentacostal Ministers... It's good enough for you.
