I absolutely love watching Christmas movies. The cheesier the better. But there are a few I love the most. Elf is one of them. It never fails to make me laugh. And I think I quote it all year round. Especially "son of a nutcracker." I say it all the time. Or how about "you sit on a throne of lies." Yep, love that one. When someone tells me something and the proper response is to be surprised or shocked; I always say, "Shocking." I just can't help it. It is really a feel good movie.
Have you seen Spirited with Ryan Reynolds and Will Ferrell? It isn't my favorite Christmas movie but it is cute.
"He runs around Ryan Reynolds’ fancy Manhattan apartment with wide-eyed glee, finding joy in the most mundane activities, like taking a shower. Ferrell, high on his excitement, runs into a random stranger at a Christmas party… who just happens to be wearing an exact replica of Ferrell’s iconic Elf costume.
“Are you OK?” asks the costume wearer, donning that unmistakable green coat with the fur collar, and the distinctive yellow-striped pointed hat.
“I think so,” Ferrell responds. Then he looks the stranger up and down and declares, “You look stupid!”
“You look stupid!” the man immediately replies."
It is a great reference.
I recommend watching both movies if you can.
