Author Topic: This Xmas '07, what DVD would you play to get you into the spirit of the season? (Read 4387 times)

Hi Guys,

Since it's just around the corner, Christmas would surely just drop-in on our laps before we know it. Usually, we get to busy with WORK to really get into the groove of things. The feel-good 'Christmassy' feeling sometimes doesn't really kick-in till Xmas week probably (sometimes it even rolls in late in the last week of the year - prior to the New Year).

So having said that, what would you guys suggest or slot in your DVD players this Xmas to stir up your Xmas Spirit? Could be a new upcoming title or a traditional classic.

In my case, I've made it a tradition to watch the pesky 'n cute Kevin Mcalister in 'Home Alone 1 or 2' to make me feel good and allow the Xmas spirit within me to breathe...

Haha, tama sir '07 pala, I stand corrected

We're on a fiscal year calendar in our firm so I do get the references wrong at times. Thanks for reminding... And yes, Rudolf's a winner for sure!

No wrong posts buddy, whatever floats your boat.

Doesn't have to be a Christmas story - the thread's about what movie gets you into the 'feel good' holiday feeling.

Speaking of which, I'd like to throw in The Family Man - Cage and Leoni, what great rapport they established in this film.
Feel good movie with a lesson.
