Christmas Movie Review - Christmas Vacation

Undoubtedly my favorite Christmas movie of all time.

Continuing on with the National Lampoon's Family Vacation franchise, this movie follows the Griswalds as they try to pull off the "perfect" family Christmas.

Now, if you are familiar with Clark W. Griswald, then you know it just isn't going to work out.  In fact, not much about this holiday does work out for him.

I don't know where to start with this movie, it's just so hilarious. 

It starts with the Griswalds on the road, hunting for the perfect Christmas tree.  There's road rage, logging trucks and airborne station wagons involved.

And when they get the tree home, Clark finds that it's a tad too big for their living room.

How about his Christmas lights - literally tens of thousands of them which he spends hours and hours putting them up (with a few misadvantures in between) only to find out that they don't work.

Now, we all know how frustrating that is when you've got a couple dozen lights that you have to go through because "when one goes, they all go."  Imagine having to check 10,000.
