| 1672 | Article | BarryBgb | I remember this well. I was 10 that summer. Everyone was so excited for this movie. It was everywhere. I even remember the local news having stories about the movie coming out and the local excitement. I was already a huge fan of the Adam West show and had action figures and such. It was a good time. | Dec 17, 2014 |  | |
| 2977 | Article | DirtyD79 | Batman was one of my favorite movies I saw as a kid. I think we watched it a couple of times at the drive-in that summer. I remember hearing in the months leading up to it people would actually go to theaters and buy tickets just to watch the previews for the Batman movie then walk out when the preview was over. I still have the VHS copy although my VCR kinda died a few years ago so I bought the four pack of Batman movie DVDs from Wal-mart a year ago. | Batman '89 Remembered | Oct 19, 2015 | |

| 1664 | Article | Vaporman87 | Very cool to learn of some of these films/shows. I agree with the choice of the Rankin-Bass "Twas the Night Before Christmas" special. That one I have fond memories of watching as a kid. The little mouse that rats out Santa as a myth always got on my nerves. I always wished one of the humans would catch him in a trap. LOL I'm interested in watching The Snowman. It sounds just splendid, so I'll check out the link you provided for that one. I'm also going to check out the Raggedy Ann and Andy special. I'm thinking I MAY have seen that one before, but it's been so long ago that I remember little to nothing about it. Some specials that I think deserve more attention: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zeG499fHctw">Emmet Otter's Jug Band Christmas</a> <a href="https://myspace.com/rudolphofficial/video/the-christmas-toy/49422958">The Christmas Toy</a> <a href="https://archive.org/details/TheLifeAndAdventuresOfSantaClaus">The Life And Adventures of Santa Claus</a> | What To Watch on Christmas | Dec 16, 2014 | |

| 1673 | Article | BarryBgb | It's so nice to finally see someone else mention "Twas the Night Before Christmas"! I love that one and no one seems to remember it. It was also nice to see "Dutch" getting some love. It was raked across the coal when it was released, but I've always found it to be enjoyable and fun. Ever since '94, I started making tapes for Christmas and Halloween. Taping things off the TV (and I still do!). I have 20 tapes each and some things that just aren't seen anymore. I'm so glad I started doing this. I have a lot to watch each year. | What To Watch on Christmas | Dec 17, 2014 | |
| 1674 | Article | Vaporman87 | That's awesome Barry. There are so many specials that have come and gone and have been all but forgotten. I tried coming up with a few of them as part of the clips shown in the RetroDaze Halloween Special. I'll have to dig up some more for next year. If you can, maybe PM me some names of some specials or Halloween episodes of shows that would be good to use. | What To Watch on Christmas | Dec 17, 2014 | |
| 1681 | Article | Hoju Koolander | @BarryBgp and thecrow174 I'm glad to see Dutch getting so much love this Christmas. And hey, it's good to have you in the mix here, Barry. @Vaporman87 My wife is in full agreement on Emmett Otter and I started watching The Life and Adventures of Santa Claus last night. It's like the Lord of the Rings Christmas Special, pretty epic. | What To Watch on Christmas | Dec 17, 2014 | |
| 1682 | Article | OldSchool80s | The only one of these I am a fan of is Twas the Night Before Christmas, but I am a big fan of that one. The song "Even a Miracle Needs a Hand" is pure Christmas joy for me. Absolutely love it. I guess I do enjoy Dutch and it is a product of the late great John Hughes. | What To Watch on Christmas | Dec 17, 2014 | |
| 1633 | Article | Vaporman87 | Ahh, man. I share your joy of reminiscing about the use of the record function of cassette recorders/players of our day. Only, where you were delighting in capturing your favorite songs of the day, I was using mine to preserve, for all time, my ability to pretend to be a DJ/Radio Talk Show Host/Sportscaster... along with some buddies of mine. I have probably 40 cassettes containing various mixes of those pretending sessions. Some were actually funny, most were only funny to me and the people I recorded them with. Though, something tells me they will be found humorous again someday when my kids find them and start listening to dad acting a fool in his youth. E.T. was huge for sure. My mom even had somebody she knew make an E.T. cake for me. But this was not a sheet cake with E.T. painted on with icing. It was a cake IN THE SHAPE of E.T.! Probably about 2 feet high. It tasted... awful. But man... it was cool to look at. Thanks for sharing this with us OldSchool. It's good to read something from you again. | My Christmas 1982 | Dec 14, 2014 | |
