There were a few that I wanted to watch but didn't get around to.
About "It's A Wonderful Life", it is my favorite all-time film and I have seen it many times now but I got to thinking when I watched it this year that is really pretty rough for Old Man Gower to be smacking around young George Bailey in the pharmacy. man, he really wails on him. Distraught or not, it was pretty violent. Also, I always cringe and the bottom falls out of my stomach ever time poor Uncle Billy accidentally hands over that money to Old Man Potter!!!!!! I always feel bad for Billy and hate for Potter. It is never found out either and Potter never gets his comeuppance. That always bothers me. He just gets away with it...but George overcomes in the end.
Maybe one of these days I'll get around to watching that 1984 version of A Christmas Carol.
