Merry Christmas. It's my favourite Christmas film because it holds all aspects, it has its nice bits that people look for in a Christmas film but it's also funny and actually relatable, the Christmas period tends to be 1 month of stress for 1 day of enjoyment, even worse if you're the host.

1. Want chaos? All we need is Eddie. 🤣 2. GOOF: The lights outside the attic window don't match the pattern with the rest of the house. 3. My favorite part is when Ellen pulls the chain on the trap door. 🤣🤣 4. Mae Questel played Aunt Bethany. She was the original Betty Boop and Olive Oyl, This was her last gig.😇 5. In the big rant scene the other actors had Chevy's lines written on placards so he wouldn't get his lines out of order. 6. Living next door to them must be kind of like living next door to the Bundys. 7. Fun fact; Chase actually hurt his hand karate chopping the reindeer. 8. Clark's boss is Brian-Doyle-Murphy (Bill Murry's brother) calls him greaseball when he drops off his gift. Then doesn't get his name right until the very end. 9. Ellen is played by Beverly DeAngelo. She also played in "Every Which way but Loose" with Clint Eastwood and in "Hair". EWWBL would be a great first time share but "Hair" would give you copywrite issues. Finally, she has a couple of kids with Al Pacino. I like her better than the sales girl.😍😋🥰 10. This IS my Christmas movie every year 11. Fun fact: This is the only Vacation where Audrey is older than Rusty. 12. My picks in order: Christmas, Vacation, European and finally Last Wages.

"You surprised?" "Surprised, Eddie? If I woke up tomorrow with my head sewn to the carpet, I wouldn't be more surprised than I am right now." Fun Fact: Beverly D'Angelo improvised grabbing Chevy Chase's crotch when the SWAT team holds up the house. She later said she did it on only one take, on the off chance it could make the film's final cut, which is what happened. Final Bow Fact: Final film of Mae Questel, whose film career began in 1930, as the voice of Betty Boop. Location Location Fact: The house in which the neighbors, Todd (Nicholas Guest) and Margo (Julia Louis-Dreyfus), live is the same house where the Murtaugh family lived in all four Lethal Weapon movies. The houses on this street are on the Warner Brothers backlot. Signature Joke Fact: After Clark Griswold unsuccessfully attempts to demonstrate his handiwork with the house Christmas lights to his family, he asks Rusty (Johnny Galecki) to help him check all the light bulbs again. Rusty looks at his bare wrist, pretending to have a watch, and excuses himself. Looking at a bare wrist and pretending to have a watch is one of Chevy Chase's trademark gags.

This is a Christmas tradition movie in my house. Every year for decades. “How many insults were in there?” The director and Chevy Chase knew he was going to improv the insults, so the director decided to spice it up.

My fav lines though? “Why is the carpet all wet, Todd?” “I don’t know, Margo!”

Yeah it is more of a sequel than a reboot. It focuses on a grown up Rusty and his family's vacation trip. Chevy Chase and Beverly D'Angelo have cameo appearance towards the end of the movie as Clark and Ellen Griswald. One of the running gags throughout the series is that the two of them always play Clark and Ellen but Rusty and Audrey are always played by different actors. They even switch up their ages as to which one is older and which one is younger. Also, the Vacation movie does bring back the Family Wagon Truckster from the first movie too, in all it's Metallic Pea glory!
