John's favorite Christmas movie (like Steve's) is It's a Wonderful Life, but if you asked him what his second favorite is, the answer might very well be the 1988, reimagining of A Christmas Carol, starring Bill Murray, Scrooged.

Steve & John are feeling a bit nostalgic this year and decided to take a sentimental journey to a true classic. Miracle on 34th St. is a perfect Christmas movie, it's battle between spirit and cynicism realized perfectly in the performances of Maureen O'Hara and young Natalie Wood.

Every year around this time John and Steve search through their vast database of holiday classics to find the film most appropriate for that particular year. Well, with everything that's happened 2020, they felt they needed a film whose combination of comedy and sincerity is second to none and that film is Elf, directed by Jon Faverau and starring the great Will Farrell.
