While Miracle on 34th Street is my all-time favorite Christmas movie that captures the spirit of what Christmas really should be, National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation gets multiple viewings every year because it captures Christmas how it turns out to be.

Here are a few of my favorite clips from a movie quite unlike any other.

Classic Christmas Ads

Like in pretty much all other ways, Christmas is the time when advertising too is at its best. Rightly so…there’s more dollars than anytime in the year burning a hole in people’s pockets. Here’s a few classic Christmas ads and TV commercials to take you back to those precious few times when you didn’t leave during the commercial break. Or nowadays, didn’t fast forward the DVR.

Folgers – Peter Comes Home for Christmas

1983 McDonald’s Ice Skating Commercial

Nabisco’s Oreo Commercial

Coors Christmas Commercial (eh..kinda dumb, but old school)

Mr. Bean and Christmas

Some old school British Christmas comedy. Probably strictly funny to Mr. Bean fans only.
