Just my opinion but I think that Scrooged 1988 is a better Christmas movie than Christmas Vacation 1989. Better - in that it is funnier, and Bill Murray’s performance is better than Chevy Chase’s. Mad respect to Christmas Vacation - it is definitely a top shelf classic, and a must watch every December. I love them both. But if I can only take 1 to a deserted island, I’m taking Scrooged. It’s dark, and hilarious. Bill brings a vulnerable transformation as Scrooge, and it’s my personal favourite adaptation of A Christmas Carol. Also Carol Kane for the win. Tell me which one ya’ll think is better! 🤙
