I learned of Goodfellas through Animaniacs. It was like the movie but with pigeons, you see!

Yeah It is like people think they are forced to watch it for 24 hours straight.

I have MANY years of experience in trying to appreciate steaming piles of dogshit.

It's a Wonderful Life is barely a Christmas movie. Almost none of it is related to Christmas at all.

I consider it a Christmas movie and I think it adds a bit of background that the ending is set during the Christmas season. But, you could tell the same story with the town saving him on the 4th of July and Harry's homecoming.

In 1947, the FBI issued a memo noting the film as a potential “Communist infiltration of the motion picture industry,” citing its “rather obvious attempts to discredit bankers by casting Lionel Barrymore as a ‘Scrooge-type’ so that he would be the most hated man in the picture. This, according to these sources, is a common trick used by Communists.”
