Christmas at home without being able to visit family equals crying over It‘s A Wonderful Life with my parents and then cheering myself up with Gremlins

Got to reorganize the kitchen to make room for my new R2D2 InstantPot, and remembered that I hadn‘t watched our #TeamFestivus team movie yet! 🔔 🎄🔔

wanderinglynn You got an R2D2 instant pot?! 😍 Will you please post a photo? 5y

Scochrane26 I‘m sure the r2d2 pot is really cute. My friends are very obsessed with Star Wars but don‘t have the instant pot. She did get a SW apron this year. 5y

I just watched It‘s A Wonderful Life for the first time and I know they were trying to show how Mary‘s life would have been in shambles if George had never been born, but personally - I thought she was living her best life. She had the greatest job ever as the town librarian; she didn‘t have to constantly stroke her husband‘s fragile ego; she didn‘t have all of those kids. She had time to read! Hollywood‘s version of old maid is 🔥

CarolynM Agreed. #unpopularopinion It's not a great movie. 5y

Sace I've never seen it and don't really care to. 🤷‍♀️ 5y

tournevis I've seen it once, to see what the fuss was all about, and I found it quite meh. 5y

dgingo It‘s depressing to me. George also has to give up his dreams of travel 🧳 and exploring the world to help his father, brother, and the town. He sacrifices himself to save others—lovely message for some, but it‘s all heartbreaking and depressing to me. 5y

JacqMac My husband says Mary messes up everything. When she makes her wish she ruins George‘s life forever. He‘s dreams never get to come true, because she wished them all away. 5y

Sharpeipup I just read that the director regretted calling her an old maid so that made me feel better. 5y

tapgurl Hate that movie. Too much yelling 5y

LauraBeth @CarolynM, @sace, @tournevis, @dgingo, @JacqMac, @Sharpeipup, @tapgurl I honestly thought I‘d hate (and kind of wanted to hate it), but I didn‘t hate it! 😂 I mean - I had to definitely put on my 1947 goggles to watch it to avoid getting irritated by some of it. I also think we tend to think that George‘s life was pretty much over but he was still really young at the end of it. I‘d like to think that he still got to travel in his adult years. 5y

dgingo @LauraBeth I don‘t hate it, but I don‘t find it to be the feel good movie that others do. I think the glasses were a good idea and that‘s nice to think that he still traveled. I‘ll hope so too. I‘m glad you enjoyed it! 5y

Movie: Its A Wonderful Life. On NBC on demand.
My mother loved this movie. We use to try to watch this every year, schedules permitting.

1. I love to give my nieces books. I choose ones I hope they'll love. I want to be that aunt that always gets them the best books.
2. Quiet Christmas at home with my husband, son and parents.
3. Already done. Last week I finished my 50th book.
4. It's a Wonderful Life
5. Will do.

Scurvygirl Giving books is so difficult. My daughter used to be easy to get books for, but now I find she doesn't have the time (college) and I honestly don't know what to get her, so I went with journals. Of course, i came home tonight and she had bought herself a new one! 🙄 Kids suck😹 6y

tracey38 I always buy books for kids. And now that I have 2 nieces (a 4 year old, and a 8 month old), I always include books in their gifts. 6y

Did someone mention bells in December. #JingleBells #SeasonsReadings
Just has to be the bell that means an angel has just earned their wings from my all time favourite film. So need to watch this again, makes me cry every time! 😭🎅

dariazeoli I love this film. I love Jimmy Stewart. ❤️ 6y

Andrew65 @dariazeoli Me too to both! 6y

tournevis There was an article on my feed this morning asking if this movie wasn't secretly a SFF story and my reaction was "Secretly?" 6y

Andrew65 @tournevis I‘m proud of loving this film, definitely not a hidden secret! 6y

Andrew65 @vkois88 😊👍😍 6y

Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks 🛎❤️🛎❤️ 6y

tournevis @Andrew65 I never thought for a second this film was *not* fantasy. It never occured to me to think of it as not SFF. 6y

ErickaS_Flyleafunfurled My favorite part is when Jimmy Stewart walks into Donna Reed‘s house and says, “Yep, still smells like pine needles in here!” Cracks me up. 6y

Butterfinger Another reason to love Litsy. Other Jimmy Stewart fans. 6y

LibrarianRyan @eanderson it is. And josh quotes it frequently. 6y

umbrellagirl Anne with an e 💙 6y

ravenlee My first name is Anne, and when we moved a few months ago we almost bought a house on Avondale Drive - my mom thought it would be perfect for me to be Anne of Avondale! Unfortunately our offer was declined. Anyway, excellent middle name! 6y

LibrarianRyan @ravenlee that would have been awesome. All the female grand children on my mothers side all have the middle name Ann but me. Anne. 😃 6y

mountainsandlace My mom makes us all watch Miracle on 34th Street every Thanksgiving after dinner, in the original black and white 😳 6y
