Frank's Father was played by Bill Murray's eldest brother, Brian Doyle Murray, his brother James was potrayed by another of his real life brothers John Murray, and his other acting brother Joel Murray was at Jame's Christmas party as guest. None of the other Murray siblings act, and one or two have passed away.
Murray' Brothers' eldest brother, Ed Murray died back in 2020. Brothers' sister, Nancy is Catholic Nun in Michigan. John acted in only movies including this one.
Wow! Fun facts I never knew. That’s actually really cool, I remember when this came out it was pretty much the first twisted Christmas movie, you gotta admit it’s dark. I loved it, I can’t think of any other prior to that.
Brian Doyle-Murray mostly has just acted in things Bill was in...but he has done some stage acting on his own and he was in a sitcom Bill wasn't in...he's done the most in Hollywood.
Will always be one of my favorite Christmas movies. Its funny, its dark, but its also heartwarming. Bill Murray's monologue was mostly ad-libbed, and sure he's an actor so its the job, but that speech just feels so real and always has me tear up. Bobcat Goldthwait is also a personal favorite of mine and my favorite line in the movie comes from him: "That was just an innocent window and you saw what I did to that....I don't think you know who you're dealing with!" lol
Yes Bryan Doyle Murray (was the boss on Christmas Vacation) and one of the 3 brothers of Bill Murray's in the movie, his younger brothers are in the party scene (one being his brother IN the movie too)
Nice one ladies. Scrooged is one of my favourite dark christmas comedies. Enjoyed everyones performance in the movie but am always impressed with Bobcat Goldthwait. Was never a fan of his standup comedy back then but loved what he did in this film. Scrooged is on my watch list every christmas.
When saying that the actors and the audience might be disappointed, you seem to miss that the shot that Frank interrupted was part of the final scene, they had already performed most of the show, his speech didn't prevent the show from happening it closed the show on an unusual note.
It seemed like you two liked it. This was fun to watch and see y'all reactions. but even though y'all gave it 4 out of 5 hoots, I give y'all 5 hoots. Merry Christmas Michelle and Natalie, and have a blessed day.
The guy who plays his brother is his brother John Murray The guy who plays his father (seen only shortly when they go back in time) is also played by his brother Brian Doyle-Murray
Great reaction. 1st time I saw this. When he’s told a lady died watching the trailer his reaction cracked me up. I was eating at the time and almost choked. That was in the late 90s. 😂😂 … Merry Christmas
After "The Six Million Dollar Man" Lee Majors was in a tv show about a movie stuntman called "The Fall Guy" which is the basis of a Ryan Gosling film to be released next year. He had a famous marriage to Farrah Fawcett who briefly was Farrah Fawcett-Majors From the shorts / trailers for it the film appears to be in large part filmed here in Sydney
I remember seeing this in the theater back in 1988, pretty close to or actually over the release weekend, and yes, people in the theater went nuts when Bill Murray was coaxing them at the end. The different sides of the theater cheered, the first cheers were always weaker, and then he said "Okay the REAL men"... and the cheers were much, much louder. If I'm not remembering this wrong, the women were the loudest. This is one of my favorite Christmas movies to watch every year. So glad you enjoyed it!
Karen Allen is also in "Animal House" a gross-out college campus comedy and "The Wanderers" a film set in the early 60s about various street gangs She's the lead in the sci-fi "Starman" alongside Jeff Bridges
“Excuse me lumpy.” That line makes me laugh every time. Great reaction as always. Another really good Christmas movie is “The Family Man” starring Nicolas Cage. I guarantee you’ll cry at the end of it.
Alistar Sim is the pentultimate "Scrooge", and the 1951 telling is the best film adaption of "A Christmas Carol" It's hard to find hard or digital copies, but there are youtube uploads of the full film "Scrooge" 1951
Classic yes I reckon so and of course it’s in the Christmas rotation watch or on in the background, and Lee Majors? Heck yes he was Heath Barkley on Big Valley, he was the Million Dollar Man and he was The Fall Guy, all classic tv shows from back in the day, and he was married to Farrah Fawcett! Thanks Girls that was a fun reaction so many 80s references, you kind of had to be there!
I do struggle with Christmas but I never want to get in the way of other people's Joy. That said this film I've had and loved for years and it's always a good one to smile with happy tears. Great reaction and let's drag this Joy into next year. Cheer's Beautiful Ladies.xx 🇬🇧
Great reaction ladies...I have always enjoyed this comedic 80s take on the classic A Christmas Carol/Scrooge story & Bill Murray is always a hoot. Watch for all those famous cameos 😉.... Fun facts - it was a family affair for Bill Murray because Murray's 3 brothers, Brian Doyle-Murray, John Murray & Joel Murray all play parts in this film (as Frank's dad, Frank's brother & Frank's brother friend at the family get together). Also Anne Ramsey (Mama Fratelli from The Goonies & Momma from Throw Momma From The Train) and her real life husband Logan Ramsey (from Star Trek: The Original Series as Claudius - episode Bread & Circuses, the Walking Tall trilogy as John Witter & Any Which Way You Can as Luther Quince) cameo as Eva and Billy, Herman's (played by Michael Pollard from Bonnie & Clyde as CW Moss, Star Trek: The Original Series as Jahn - Episode Miri, and in Tango & Cash as Owen the mechanic) were his friends at the homeless shelter. Annie Lennox & Al Green had the number 1 hit Christmas song (even though the song originally had nothing to do with Christmas at first) in 1989, with "Put A Little Love In Your Heart" and even recorded a music video for the song using clips from this movie within it. Have a Merry Christmas ladies & a Happy New Year 🎄🎅⛄🦌🎁🎊🍾🥂🕛🥳
Hi Michelle & Natalie, my first choice for A Xmas Carol/Scrooge film is the 1951 version with Alistair Sim. It is one of the Xmas films I try to watch every Xmas Eve. However, I do like this alternate/modernised version, I usually watch it every other December. Glad you both enjoyed it. Merry Xmas to both of you, your family & your other commentators & viewers. :)
“What About Bob” is another Bill Murray movie you 2 need to see if you haven’t already. It wasn’t one of his “more famous” movies, it flew under the radar unfortunately
Carol Kane absolutely steals this movie as the Ghost of Christmas Present. In much the same way she and Billy Crystal stole A Princess Bride. Amazing comedy talent.
Claire, aka Karen Allen Indy's girl also was a girl frien in Animal House. also in Starman thats all I remember. great duel reactions. Merry Christmas.
"A Xmas movie with Bill Murray" You picked the right one :p He's also done a more recent Xmas mockumentary thing on Netflix (2016ish) which was universally panned, I couldn't even force myself to watch all of it. This one is pretty special though
Once again, ladies, I enjoyed your reactions. It’s been along time since I’ve seen Scrooged. I think I’m gonna have to watch it now. Did you know that the actor that played Bill Murray’s brother is his brother in real life? If I don’t get a chance before hand. I wish you and yours a blessed and Merry Christmas and a happy new year. Can’t wait to see what you have in store for the channel next year.
I went to see this in the theater. I remember a kid making fun of me because he somehow associated "A Christmas Carol" with being a childish story. Flash-forward to now and the movie is revered as a comedy classic.
To truly appreciate Carol Kane as the ghost of Christmas present you have to understand her character in Taxi. Simka was a quiet and loveable character.
She's one of my favorite actresses she's great in alot of films TV since the 70s especially the original When A Stranger Calls. I have a little crush on her when she played the sexy parts
Merry Christmas, #ForceOfLightEntertainment. Thank you so much for uploading this awesome movie reaction. I love you both so much, and I'm still supporting you because your content is so amazing, and also because I enjoy watching your reactions to different movies.
If you need to see more Karen Allen, watch her earliest work in Animal House with John Belushi. Another standout in this movie is Bobcat Goldthwait. He started out as a stand-up comic who did black comedy and political satire then moved on to movies like Police Academy 2,3,4. Dickens' book was called Scrooge: A Christmas Carol.
Hello ladies, feels like it's been a while. Always fun watching a movie with you both. One of my favourite Christmas movies is The Bishops wife. Cary grant, David Niven, it's an old one, but worth a watch and I'd love to watch it with you. 🇬🇧🙂 the edit is to say I found it on RUclips last week.
Not only did Bill Murray ad-lib his monologue at the end but two of the funniest moments of the movie were complete accidents that were left in. Murray falling down in the restaurant was a real fall by Murray and not part of the script. Neither was his accidental elbow into Grace's jaw when he jumped back from the elevator after seeing the production version of the ghost of Christmas future.
This is my favorite Christmas movie of all time. The funniest joke to me has always been a visual gag that nobody really notices. Bill Murray’s character last name is cross, in his office is a banner with the definition, as it would appear in a dictionary of the word cross. Cross/noun something you nail someone to.
Since I was a kid, this is my preferred version of A Christmas Carol. Directed by the director of Superman (1978), the Lethal Weapon movies, The Omen (1976) and The Goonies (1985) by the way.
Wow, Karen Allen (Indiana Jones) is in some great movies like Animal House, The Sandlot and Starman. Starman is actually a beautiful love story with Jeff Bridges and directed by yes, thee John Carpenter...
So Glad You Watched This! 🖒 Scrooged has always been one of my favorite Christmas movies! Had first watched it around the age of 8 years old, fondly remembered on VHS and Television. For some, it definitely has that nostalgic factor that brings back so many memories. However, can understand that if you're not from the 80's era or if dark humor isn't your thing in holiday films, this movie might not be your cup of tea. But hey, sometimes after a few drinks, if you can just relax the mind, and not take a movie too seriously, right? Haha! Best Scene... "It's a bone ya lucky dog!" - Ghost of Xmas Past (standing up)... 🤣
This was Bill Murray's first lead role in a movie since Ghostbusters! Apparently the success and popularity of Ghostbusters was so great Murray chose to a break.
I've been putting my family through several iterations of A Christmas Carol. The 1984 version is my favorite straight-laced version. But then there's also the Muppets, Scrooged, and the Flintstone's telling of it. Mighty fine story for everyone wanting to put their own spin on it. Merry Christmas!
First time watching with you two and enjoy y'all review...lol and I will start making bill the Christmas movie for my family holiday viewing.. awesome work as always ladies 💐💯💯🔱
Bills father in xmas past was played by his real brother Brian Murray. Brian was in a lot of movies. Bill and Brian were both in Caddyshack.. and yes Brian was in xmas vacation as the company boss..
I must have watched this every other Christmas since it was made. Perhaps I'm a masochist in denial, or why am I falling more and more in love with Carol Kane (Ghost of Christmas Present) for every time I watch this? Or perhaps it's just because she's a great actress? I haven't been able to make toast without saying "It's a ... TOASTER!" and thinking of her for the last 30 years. :D This could be the movie that made me realise that a story can be better (or at least as good) if you move it to another setting or time period. They do it all the time with classics from theatre and opera, so why not literature?
other must christmas movies 1.scrooge or a christmas carol 1951 2.surviving christmas 3.national lampoons christmas vacation 4.a christmas story 5.die hard 6.die hard 2 7.lethal weapon 1 8.home alone 1 9.elf 10.the muppet christmass carol 11.the santa clause 12.four christmases 13.bad santa 14.the christmas chronicles 15.the night before 16.gremlins 17.trading places 18.batman returns 19.the ref 20.a very harold and kumar christmas
I have love for this movie other than being a classic Murray film in that my late father was acting night security guard for the homeless shelter set. It was just cool to know he had a small part to play in keeping the production safe.
My favorite Christmas movie, except for maybe “It’s A Wonderful Life.” Regarding that one, I actually met “Zuzu,” as an adult about twenty years ago, and spent a couple of hours talking with her, sharing stories. Very nice lady. Anyway this one always makes me happy, the contemporary take on the classic Dickens story, full of mayhem from the beginning. Natalie, “sometimes people’s rejection is God’s protection.” 22:46 I’ve never heard that before, and it gave me pause to consider. Yes, that can be true, though it may not seem that way at the time.
@@ForceOfLightEntertainment I was hoping so, and will watch it soon. I only came across your channel in the last couple of days. Seemingly all things “Big Trouble In Little China” pop up in my feed, as did your reaction, which I enjoyed thoroughly. I get a kick out of watching people see it for the first time, even if they don’t fully “get” it. I look forward to watching more reactions from you, especially classics and the occasional oddball film. I haven’t searched your playlists thoroughly yet, but I’m hoping to see my all-time favorite comedy, “What’s Up, Doc.” I love sharing it with friends, and as many times as I’ve seen it, it still makes me laugh along with my guests as much as I did the first time I saw it. Be well!
Such a hilarious film, Bill Murray and really the whole cast do a fantastic job. I really love this movie, it’s definitely a Christmas film not talked about as much as other Christmas films these days, but it’s still excellent. It’s great to see you two watch this movie. I hope you two are doing well and take care!
I don’t know if yinz have watched “What about Bob” another great movie from Bill Murray. I used to work at Walmart in the electronics department and we played this movie and a “Christmas Story” from Thanksgiving to Christmas every year. Keep up the good work and stay safe out there.
I gotta be honest. I stopped for 2 reasons. #1 I love this movie and #2 you are both gorgeous. I never figured that I would love the reaction. Now I gotta go watch past videos of y'all reacting to some of my favorite movies...
She was like you said in " Indiana Jones - Animal House - Starman. You should do more Bill Murray. - What About Bob ? - Stripes - Meatballs - Quick Change - Rushmore
Always love your reactions & Merry Christmas to you two. Since it's Christmas time, would you please react to the older Christmas movies? Miracle on 34th Street with Natalie Wood & It's a Wonderful Life with Jimmy Stewart. Thank you so much, once again so nice to watch movies with two beautiful ladies.
Hey Ladies! Firstly, people, get pressing that Subscribe button, you won't regret it! 😊 Mitchell, you look stunning, as always of course. Natalie, you are looking very fine young lady, hee!, hee! 😊 You have me feeling all weak at the knees, lol! 😂 I love Scrooged. It's a good fun movie which of course, had a series message in it also. A perfect selection of actors/ actresses also. An interesting take on the Original ' Christmas Carol ' story. As always, I really enjoyed your reaction. Can't wait for your next video, keep them coming. Have a fantastic day both of you and please, take care! ❤❤
I don't understand. His TV Christmas commercial was unique and different. I would love it if more commercials were like his. I don't know about you, but all Christmas specials should have solid gold dancers. And don't lie, we all would staple antlers to the head of a rat. Merry Christmas dammit!

Didnt know that, makes the movie even better. Scrooged is probably my favourite Bill Murray movie and performance
I’ve worked with John Murray on a play. He played a mental patient. Very little directing required.
Wow! Fun facts I never knew. That’s actually really cool, I remember when this came out it was pretty much the first twisted Christmas movie, you gotta admit it’s dark. I loved it, I can’t think of any other prior to that.
Brian Doyle-Murray mostly has just acted in things Bill was in...but he has done some stage acting on his own and he was in a sitcom Bill wasn't in...he's done the most in Hollywood.

Yes Bryan Doyle Murray (was the boss on Christmas Vacation) and one of the 3 brothers of Bill Murray's in the movie, his younger brothers are in the party scene (one being his brother IN the movie too)
Younger brother had a funny movie too... MOVING VIOLATIONS... 80s comedy
Nice one ladies. Scrooged is one of my favourite dark christmas comedies. Enjoyed everyones performance in the movie but am always impressed with Bobcat Goldthwait. Was never a fan of his standup comedy back then but loved what he did in this film. Scrooged is on my watch list every christmas.
I hadn’t seen this in a long time. It was a fun take on the story. Bill was great in it! Also congratulations on reaching 25K!🎉😊
Thank you!!
My favorite Bill Murray film and my favorite Scrooge tale...doubly blessed! To revisit it with you is a blessing too!
When saying that the actors and the audience might be disappointed, you seem to miss that the shot that Frank interrupted was part of the final scene, they had already performed most of the show, his speech didn't prevent the show from happening it closed the show on an unusual note.
Such an underrated Xmas movie. Can’t believe people don’t like thus
No, this movie isn’t anymore underrated than What About Bob
Congratulations on the 25K. Apologies for not being able to celebrate the milestone with you. Keep up the great work. Merry Christmas and God Bless!
You can send me money if you want😂
Rator!!!! Oh my gosh…thank you so much!! Merry Christmas to you and God bless!! 🙏🏻
May God richly bless you Rator ❤🙏🥰🎁❤️ thank you so much and Merry Christmas!!!
Merry Christmas everyone! I definitely enjoyed this first watch reaction! This was a very cool movie and I did enjoy seeing the movie when it came out
Merry Christmas!!

The woman who plays Tinkerbell , was in the classic sitcom " Taxi " , the movie " Dog Day Afternoon " - " The Princess Bride " and many more movies.
Carol Kane....great actress 👍
Had a crush on her since "Taxi"
Karen Allen: Animal House; Starman; early work, to name two.
Gioie reactions and good you ladies enjoyed it 😃Yes a funny retelling of A Christmas Carol with Bill Murray. Humberg !
After "The Six Million Dollar Man" Lee Majors was in a tv show about a movie stuntman called "The Fall Guy" which is the basis of a Ryan Gosling film to be released next year.
He had a famous marriage to Farrah Fawcett who briefly was Farrah Fawcett-Majors
From the shorts / trailers for it the film appears to be in large part filmed here in Sydney

Yes people were singing at the end of the movie in the theater. It was great.
I have almost every version of A Christmas Carol there is abd this one is probably the funniest.
Karen Allen is also in "Animal House" a gross-out college campus comedy and "The Wanderers" a film set in the early 60s about various street gangs
She's the lead in the sci-fi "Starman" alongside Jeff Bridges
Animal House, Continental Divide (Jim Belushi) and yea, Starman!
“Excuse me lumpy.” That line makes me laugh every time. Great reaction as always. Another really good Christmas movie is “The Family Man” starring Nicolas Cage. I guarantee you’ll cry at the end of it.
Thank you! Yes, have seen that one!
I remember seeing thid in theatres at Christmas when it came out . I love the song ( put a little love in your heart) original and this cover.
Karen Allen, Marion from the Indy franchise, was also in Animal House with John Belushi.
"And that was just an innocent window and you saw what I did to that! Don't you know who you're dealing with???" 😂
Can ya'll give Vampires 1998 a chance? John Carpenter did a decent job in my opinion... watched it yesterday for the first time.
Alistar Sim is the pentultimate "Scrooge", and the 1951 telling is the best film adaption of "A Christmas Carol"
It's hard to find hard or digital copies, but there are youtube uploads of the full film "Scrooge" 1951
Classic yes I reckon so and of course it’s in the Christmas rotation watch or on in the background, and Lee Majors? Heck yes he was Heath Barkley on Big Valley, he was the Million Dollar Man and he was The Fall Guy, all classic tv shows from back in the day, and he was married to Farrah Fawcett! Thanks Girls that was a fun reaction so many 80s references, you kind of had to be there!
I do struggle with Christmas but I never want to get in the way of other people's Joy. That said this film I've had and loved for years and it's always a good one to smile with happy tears. Great reaction and let's drag this Joy into next year. Cheer's Beautiful Ladies.xx 🇬🇧
Well hope this Christmas is better for you!! 🙏🏻
I watch this every year, along with Christmas Vacation. I love Bill Murray. He played a very convincing jerk in this one 🤣 Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas!!
Any chance there will be a Force of Light podcast episode for Christmas?? 🤞@@ForceOfLightEntertainment
Natalie as Murray burns: That's rough 🤣🤣🤣
Great reaction ladies...I have always enjoyed this comedic 80s take on the classic A Christmas Carol/Scrooge story & Bill Murray is always a hoot. Watch for all those famous cameos 😉....

One of my favorite versions of a Christmas Carol, that ending lands everytime. Great reaction and have a Merry Christmas Michelle and Natalie.
Merry Christmas!!
Carol Kane absolutely steals this movie as the Ghost of Christmas Present.
In much the same way she and Billy Crystal stole A Princess Bride.
Amazing comedy talent.
Claire, aka Karen Allen Indy's girl also was a girl frien in Animal House. also in Starman thats all I remember. great duel reactions. Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas!!

You picked the right one :p He's also done a more recent Xmas mockumentary thing on Netflix (2016ish) which was universally panned, I couldn't even force myself to watch all of it. This one is pretty special though
Easily a 5 out of 5 for me. I love it. I watch even when its not Christmas.

I used to see it air on TV. I like a lot of Bill Murray films.
The actor who played Bill Murray's characters father is Brian Doyle Murray, it's Bill's actual brother
🙂Groundhog Day🙃
Thanks ladies merry Christmas to you both and the family
Thank you!! Merry Christmas Shane!!
Sorry you missed it. This movie has been on TV a ton since it was available for TV.
4 of the Murray brothers make appearances in this movie.
The actor who gives young bill murray the veal , was in many National Lampoon movies. Vacation movies - Caddyshack and others.
I went to see this in the theater. I remember a kid making fun of me because he somehow associated "A Christmas Carol" with being a childish story. Flash-forward to now and the movie is revered as a comedy classic.
I was lucky. The theater I was in actually started to sing at the end and the movie had only been out for 1 day.
To truly appreciate Carol Kane as the ghost of Christmas present you have to understand her character in Taxi. Simka was a quiet and loveable character.
She was also great in her small role in The Princess Bride. Seems she's just good at making the most out of what time she has on screen.
Oh yeah, she was brilliant in this role. Always loved her.

I saw this in the theater with my father when it came out and yes, people were singing at the end
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!! ⭐️ 🎄🎁
You have a joyous Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄 🎅 🎉 Natalie
🎄Merry Christmas, Natalie! 🎄
Love your wig Natalie! Merry Christmas grrl!
Bills father in xmas past was played by his real brother Brian Murray. Brian was in a lot of movies. Bill and Brian were both in Caddyshack.. and yes Brian was in xmas vacation as the company boss..
I must have watched this every other Christmas since it was made.
Perhaps I'm a masochist in denial, or why am I falling more and more in love with Carol Kane (Ghost of Christmas Present) for every time I watch this? Or perhaps it's just because she's a great actress? I haven't been able to make toast without saying "It's a ... TOASTER!" and thinking of her for the last 30 years. :D
This could be the movie that made me realise that a story can be better (or at least as good) if you move it to another setting or time period. They do it all the time with classics from theatre and opera, so why not literature?
She is in "Star Man" as well, you guys should watch that.
Best sister reactions on yt :) ❤
Aww ☺️

Margot Kidder plays Clare wonderfully! Besides Indy she plays Lois Lane in the original Superman! Some BIG productions!
I have love for this movie other than being a classic Murray film in that my late father was acting night security guard for the homeless shelter set. It was just cool to know he had a small part to play in keeping the production safe.
1 Bill Murray movie that people never talk about is The Man Who Knew Too Little
Cool!
Love this movie Merry Christmas 🎄🎁 ❤
Merry Christmas!!
@@ForceOfLightEntertainment what’s your favorite Christmas carol movie of all time
My favorite Christmas movie, except for maybe “It’s A Wonderful Life.” Regarding that one, I actually met “Zuzu,” as an adult about twenty years ago, and spent a couple of hours talking with her, sharing stories. Very nice lady. Anyway this one always makes me happy, the contemporary take on the classic Dickens story, full of mayhem from the beginning.
Natalie, “sometimes people’s rejection is God’s protection.” 22:46 I’ve never heard that before, and it gave me pause to consider. Yes, that can be true, though it may not seem that way at the time.
Not sure if you have seen our reaction to It’s a wonderful life but we do have one!
@@ForceOfLightEntertainment I was hoping so, and will watch it soon. I only came across your channel in the last couple of days. Seemingly all things “Big Trouble In Little China” pop up in my feed, as did your reaction, which I enjoyed thoroughly. I get a kick out of watching people see it for the first time, even if they don’t fully “get” it. I look forward to watching more reactions from you, especially classics and the occasional oddball film. I haven’t searched your playlists thoroughly yet, but I’m hoping to see my all-time favorite comedy, “What’s Up, Doc.” I love sharing it with friends, and as many times as I’ve seen it, it still makes me laugh along with my guests as much as I did the first time I saw it.
Be well!
This is my fav. Fatman is Mel Gibson playing Santa and another dark Christmas movie, and awsome.
Yay! One of my favs!
This is my favorite Christmas movie!!
Such a hilarious film, Bill Murray and really the whole cast do a fantastic job. I really love this movie, it’s definitely a Christmas film not talked about as much as other Christmas films these days, but it’s still excellent. It’s great to see you two watch this movie. I hope you two are doing well and take care!
Thank you! Hope you are well!
@@ForceOfLightEntertainment you’re very welcome! I’m doing good myself!
Merry crimbo to you lovely ladies x
I don’t know if yinz have watched “What about Bob” another great movie from Bill Murray. I used to work at Walmart in the electronics department and we played this movie and a “Christmas Story” from Thanksgiving to Christmas every year. Keep up the good work and stay safe out there.
Have seen it many times! Great comedy! Thank you!!
One of my favorite Christmas movies
The girl with the green glasses.....This is the 2nd of your videos that I've seen & she reminds me so much of young Nancy Sinatra.
My personal favorite Christmas movie.
Yes I know I’m late!!!! LOL.
I gotta be honest. I stopped for 2 reasons. #1 I love this movie and #2 you are both gorgeous. I never figured that I would love the reaction. Now I gotta go watch past videos of y'all reacting to some of my favorite movies...
Wow, thank you!!
I love Scroogeed
A Christmas Carol is the original movie, the minnow was the Gilligan island boat
She was like you said in " Indiana Jones - Animal House - Starman. You should do more Bill Murray. - What About Bob ? - Stripes - Meatballs - Quick Change - Rushmore
Love “what about Bob”! I think we will do more of his movies!
Always love your reactions & Merry Christmas to you two. Since it's Christmas time, would you please react to the older Christmas movies? Miracle on 34th Street with Natalie Wood & It's a Wonderful Life with Jimmy Stewart. Thank you so much, once again so nice to watch movies with two beautiful ladies.
It’s a Wonderful Life is next!! Thank you and Merry Christmas!!
Karen Allen was in Animal House long before Indiana Jones, check it out
Lee majors had three hit shows
Green valley
Six million dollar man
And my fav fall guy
He married farah Fawcett which Natalie has same hair dew😂
There’s nothing better than watching robots react to a Christmas classic 🌲🎄
There is nothing better than a kind comment by a stranger! Merry Christmas!
Love it!!! Classic Christmas movie! I enjoyed the reaction! 😊
Thank you!! 😁
You're welcome! 😊
Loving the Xmas Grogu 😁... The Mandalorian was a great series 👍🏽
Another funny Christmas Movie you guys might like is 1994 ’The Ref’ with Dennis Leary, Kevin Spacey and Judy Davis.
Hey Ladies!
Firstly, people, get pressing that Subscribe button, you won't regret it! 😊
Mitchell, you look stunning, as always of course.
Natalie, you are looking very fine young lady, hee!, hee! 😊
You have me feeling all weak at the knees, lol! 😂
I love Scrooged.
It's a good fun movie which of course, had a series message in it also.
A perfect selection of actors/ actresses also.
An interesting take on the Original ' Christmas Carol ' story.
As always, I really enjoyed your reaction.
Can't wait for your next video, keep them coming.
Have a fantastic day both of you and please, take care! ❤❤
Aww thank you!! You have a great day too!!
@@ForceOfLightEntertainment You're very welcome hun. ♥️
I don't understand. His TV Christmas commercial was unique and different. I would love it if more commercials were like his. I don't know about you, but all Christmas specials should have solid gold dancers. And don't lie, we all would staple antlers to the head of a rat. Merry Christmas dammit!
You should watch It's A Wonderful Life 1946 the ultimate Christmas movie
That’s next!!
