I know it seems kind of odd to post another time waster since I doubt ‘reading OhGizmo!’ is part of anyone’s job description. But once you get through our witty quips, sarcastic digs and other humorous observations this should keep you distracted for several more hours.
The good people at Fanpop have put together a list of 101 classic Christmas videos you can actually watch online. The list is broken down into several sections including The Essentials, Cartoons, Stop-Motion Animation, Versions of A Christmas Carol, Sitcoms, Music Videos, Commercials, Parodies and Abominations. While some of the videos have already been taken offline, the site is trying hard to stay on top of things by removing links that don’t work anymore.
Certain classics like A Christmas Story and Miracle on 34th Street are missing because there are no online versions, but other than that the list looks pretty comprehensive. MST3K fans will be particularly happy to see the original version of Santa Claus Conquers the Martians, which is so bad it seems like it was only shot so it could be made fun of later.
So head on over to Fanpop if you want to say goodbye to your workload and hello to Christmas memories.
read “Abominations” … -> Star Wars special.
Isn’t it funny how one immediately makes the connection. 🙂
