Scrooged is one of those holiday movies you get around the 21st-ish of December, before the channels are warming up and bring out the 'big guns' - 'big guns' in christmas movie network executive terms being, well, anything by Pixar or The Great Escape

That's why I just love those 80's perennial favorites (Scrooged, Gremlins etc), as they instantly take you you a time when christmas is still exciting as it's just around the corner, but before all the disappointment, family-related stress and mental anguish take their toll.

Rog, I salute you!
