A Christmas Story

http://www.fishingworld.com/pdlg/c-story/

Maybe it's the defining difference between generations—now the family gathers around to watch this every Christmas as well as Miracle on 34th Street. You can get a taste here with some of the best quotes, but be sure to catch it this year.

A Very Brady Sequel

http://www.thebradybunch.com/

Admit it—you knew the lyrics to the song in the first film, didn't you?! The house, the tic-tac-toe format, and those horrible '70s designs and colors at this site will remind you of the fun and the nonsense of this hit show. It's disgustingly groovy.

Beavis and Butt-Head Do America

http://www.beavis-butthead.com/

This site could also be listed under the heading of "Cult," but most people who can stand this pair think of them as funny. Enter the contest, click various locations on the U.S. map to play interactive games, and of course jump to the MTV Web site, where you can get cool B&B stuff. (Note: Parents might object to some of the language at this site.)

http://www.fierce-creatures.com/

If the film wasn't in the theaters long enough for you to catch it, stop in here for background details on the film and the cast, assembled again from A Fish Called Wanda, before you trot off to the video store.

Read an interview with John Cleese, laugh again at some of the photos, and definitely check out the drawings in the media section.
