HEH: BoxBux Sux as Stix Hix Nix Xmas Flix.

UPDATE: John McGinnis emails:

Heh. Why should I spend somewhere in the neghborhood of $40 to watch a box office bomb when I can NetFlix really great old standards online or in the mail? My favorite line up every year —

* White Christmas
* Miracle on 34th Street
* It’s a Wonderful Life
* The Shop Around the Corner
* Were no Angels
* A Christmas Carol (George C. Scott version)

Dip in the eggnog, throw another log on the fire and hit ‘play’ on the media center and I am set.

I think there’s a lot of that. The trouble is, the new movies need to be better than the old ones to compete, and instead they’re usually inferior.
