OT: What is your favorite quote from the movie - A Christmas Story?

[Freddie.B.Cocky]

There were many for me but I guess my very favorite was:

Ralphie: Ohhhh fuuudge!

Ralphie as an Adult: [narrating] Only I didn't say "Fudge." I said THE word, the big one, the queen-mother of dirty words, the "F-dash-dash-dash" word!

The Old Man: [stunned] What did you say?

Ralphie: Uh, um...

The Old Man: That's... what I thought you said. Get in the car... Go on.

Ralphie as an Adult: [narrating] It was all over - I was dead. What would it be? The guillotine? Hanging? The chair? The rack? The Chinese water torture? Hmmph. Mere child's play compared to what surely awaited me.

Too many but I love hearing the Chinese waiters sing “Deck the horrs with boughs of hawry, Fa ra ra ra ra rara ra ra.”

And “Jingle berrs, Jingle berrs, jingle all de way!”

Wont watch until Christmas Day.

Oh come on! You guys can come up with more lines than has been posted above.

I have never seen that movie...seriously.

The movie is a work of art. My favorite scene is when he gets the decoder ring only to find its message is a commercial for rich, chocolatey Ovaltine!

 

[colacock#]

Be sure...to drink...your Ovatine. OVALTINE? A crummy commercial? Son of a bitch!

The End

 

[Carolina4]

The movie is good but I don’t think it can now live up to the hype it gets for someone who has never seen it. For me much of it is nostalgia as I remember watching it as a kid. Back then I always remembered certain scenes, especially the Santa slide.

I talked it up so much that my wife just doesn’t get it. She thinks it’s dumb. I think that’s because I made it out to be such a big deal she was expecting something to blow her away.

Even Christmas Vacation is like that. It’s funny and awesome, but if someone watched it for the first time today they’d laugh, but probably come away disappointed based on the cult following.

A lot of younger people dont get it. But to be honest if it's not south park fart humor, they dont get anything. It's not laugh outloud my side hurts funny. To me the little things are funny the box of oxydol on the Shelf is funny.

 

[Freddie.B.Cocky]

Gosh, you are missing out on a great Christmas Classic, it is literally 2nd to "It's a Wonderful Life" or it is per many critics.

 

[Freddie.B.Cocky]

The End

What does that mean? The End? Does that mean you didn't like the movie? Sir, if that is the case then that is just HORRIBLE! I don't know of anyone that didn't like the movie or at least most of the movie.

Plus, I think it helps if one can identify with that time period to some degree. The time period for the movie was suppose to be 1940. That's even before my time but I can identify with the movie for the most part.

OMG, its a requirement.

I love the Lamp

My kid brother looked like a tick about to pop...

I TRIPLE DOG DARE YOU!!!

You definitely have to see it as a kid to get it. I love the movie but my wife doesn't get it because she never saw it as a kid.

Which is, of course, a slight breech of etiquette

I can't move my arms!

Agree. Although I do still like the fart humor.

 

[Freddie.B.Cocky]

I love the Lamp

I did, too. A guy that use to work for me ask for a replica of the lamp when we drew names for Christmas. And the person that got his name actually got him a small replica of the lamp. LOL!

 

[Freddie.B.Cocky]

Agree. Although I do still like the fart humor.

May I ask, what is the fart humor?

 

[Freddie.B.Cocky]

Another one of my favorite lines is:
In the heat of battle my father wove a tapestry of obscenity that, as far as we know, is still hanging in space over Lake Michigan.

 

[Carolina4]

From other shows / movies. Not A Christmas Story

 

[sclawman77]

"Not a finger!"

"Now, I had heard that word (F bomb) at least ten times a day from my old man. He worked in profanity the way other artists might work in oils or clay. It was his true medium; a master."

 

[DrMickey]

Phone conversation:

Do you know where he learned that word?

Probably his father...
