No hate. Just was trying to understand the fascination. One man's treasure is another's trash. If you like it, great. I hate Alice's Restaurant.
I can't watch Twilight Zone marathons, but can watch Honeymooners and Odd Couple marathons non-stop.
I think you'd either have to have watched as a kid or have young kids of your own to have a greater chance of liking it. Really not just this but probably a quite a few of these older classic movies. I used to like the big toy soldiers and the boogeymen when I was a kid but obviously doesn't hold the same fascination for me now. Other holiday classics like It's a Wonderful Life and almost every version of Christmas Carol I still like just like I did growing up. So it depends.
But I think if you come "fresh" out of nowhere without any of the nostalgia from childhood or current young children these older movies are probably harder to enjoy.
It's the best. B&W version on Thanksgiving morning never gets old. Looking forward to it.
I don't want to marry Barnaby. I don't love him.
Me and the toymaker are just like this.
Never mind Bo Peep we will find your sheep.
Yeah - I've seen this once or twice.

It's nostalgic for us old folks. Brings back lots of good memories of when times were simpler, there weren't nearly the amount of TV choices and many loved ones were around who are since long gone. I can't watch it end-to-end, but tuning in each year for a little while is nice.
ah ha..that's the problem with our offense. Somebody forgot to press the big red button on their backs!
how many of you actually have tried to take a stick and do that thing with a dart? (spent years attempting as a kid)

50th anniversary of the grinch, extended uncut version friday at 8pm...always my favorite
My Thanksgiving morning tradition is raking leaves. This way I work up an appetite for the mid-afternoon meal.
wooden soldiers movie can induce nightmares for little kids. I love Laurel & Hardy as well as tradition, but I don't need to see that film again, at least not in the morning when I am still sober.
The movie is like the NBA. The last few minutes are all that matter.
I like "King Kong" and "Might Joe Young" more

First video of a same sex marriage? Barnaby and Stan Laurel? Not that there is anything wrong with that.
Always watch the movie. 1934 classic.

The mouse in the zeppelin, just that alone is worth it.
Watch every year.
Watch every year.
Be thankful for all that you have, and perhaps take for granted
Every year PIX11 airs 'March of the Wooden Soldiers' for the holidays. Tell us: Should the movie be aired in black and white or in color this Christmas?
Thanksgiving in black and white , Christmas in color. I NEVER miss the last half hour. Before that........It's a kids movie .Every year PIX11 airs 'March of the Wooden Soldiers' for the holidays. Tell us: Should the movie be aired in black and white or in color this Christmas?
Oh it's terrible. It can only be the tradition, one thankfully, I was not subjected to.
