The best way to spread Christmas cheer is singing loud for all to hear.

I love Elf. It's hilarious. Also the story with his dad was really emotional.

[thejesuschrist]

Stunt burper? Odd talent but an acceptable one

The tube trick for the soda is a pretty old piece of movie magic, though the last time I heard about it was when John Belushi refused to use it when his character was given a bottle of whiskey and just straight up chugged the whole thing on the spot. We loved ya John, but there are reasons you burned out quick.

Just started watching Cinefix... dear god. Of course I've seen WatchMojo and ScreenRant, but these videos all just bring so much charm. I love watching videos about the world of movies, and Cinefix always seems to be so well versed in analysis and generally well researched. Thanks guys, please don't stop making videos.

It's already 15 years old? Man I feel old

[axnyslie]

This really rose above the dredge. The 2000s had loads of crap holiday movies. This and Polar Express were the one true gems.

Actually, the mail room scene was shot in a defunct car dealership on Boundary Road (the demarcation between Vancouver and Burnaby), rather than at spooky Riverview. How do I know? I was there (for somewhere in the neighbourhood of sixteen hours, as I recall).

There’s something you [absolutely] didn’t know.

Please make more of these...and more videos overall. This is one of my favorite channels

The way that Coca Cola label is always totally visable from the different angles - pure magic!

[DatMuslimDad]

Man I’m now 20 and I still watch this movie and the live action grinch every Christmas

[Ricardo-gpli]

Elf is one of the best Christmas movies. fight me if you disagree
