🎄 Scott’s Very Merry Movie Marathon Poem

~ A Christmas Poem for the King of Holiday Films ~

When December rolls in with its sparkle and cheer,

Scott’s Christmas movie list says, “The best time of year!”

A marathon awaits ~ hot cocoa in hand ~

Let’s journey through Christmas across Movie-Land.

⭐ Classic Favorites

First up, the classics ~ each one a delight:

National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation lights up the night.

With Clark Griswold’s antics and spiraling plight,

It kicks off the season just right, merry and bright.

It’s A Wonderful Life brings a tear and a grin,

While A Christmas Story warns, “You’ll shoot your eye out!” again.

Then A Christmas Story Christmas joins in the fun,

With Ralphie now grown and a dad of his own son.

Miracle on 34th Street reminds us to believe,

And The Holiday brings love on a snowy Christmas Eve.

In Just Friends we laugh till our sides are sore,

And Planes, Trains, and Automobiles brings heart by the score.

With The Family Man showing how choices unfold,

And Die Hard (yes, it’s Christmas!) ~ brave, bold, and cold.

Office Christmas Party blasts music so loud,

While The Family Stone gathers the whole festive crowd.

Then Love Actually whispers, “Love’s everywhere,”

(Especially at Christmas, when hearts fill the air.)

🎁 Family Favorites

Now gather the family ~ let the laughter begin:

Home Alone and Home Alone 2 ~ let the chaos roll in!

As Kevin’s legacy lives on in a new little world.

While Fred Claus and Elf make Christmas complete.

Until neighbors convince them they’re wrong for that reason.

And Deck the Halls pits two neighbors on who decorates best.

While The Santa Clause trilogy brings Santa anew.

And Noelle proves Christmas spirit won’t end ~

Especially with love, family, and one loyal friend.

❄️ Cartoon & Animated Magic

And ’Twas the Night Before Christmas whispers soft candlelight.

And Mickey’s Christmas Carol brings Dickens sincere.

How the Grinch Stole Christmas (classic version, of course!)

And Dr. Seuss’ The Grinch takes that same festive force.

The Muppet Christmas Carol sings joy with a grin,

While Letters to Santa brings the Muppets again.

It’s a Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie shines too—

What can’t the Muppets do with Christmas to pursue?

For hope, wonder, and joy on this holiday night.
