    24 straight hours of it on TNT

    I actually met a guy today who's never seen the movie. He's lived here for 30 years. Crazy.

    Fav lines?

    I've never seen it; the first time I heard about it was in junior high, everyone was impersonating Asians singing Deck the Halls.

    Only really got into it last year when they marathon'd it. Before that I thought it was just about a kid wanting a bb gun.

    I'm freaking Jewish and I can site lines from memory. I'm actually shocked even this many people haven't seen it.

    I've never seen the whole thing in one viewing.. I always try to change the channel before any kind of whining or crying starts in the movie. For some reason the sound of that has always got on my last nerve.

    A feature length motion picture about the biggest consumer retail season of the year might not be the most alien territory for American individuals who happen to be Jewish.

    I've never seen it either. Is it better than Home Alone?

    I've seen it many many times though I'm not 100% sure I've ever seen the whole thing in one sitting. How long have they been doing the 24hr marathon? Definitely more than 6 or 7 years now.

    Home alone is better.
