I'm still curious as to why he was so popular back in the day if this arrogance showed through. I guess the public love a heel if they are funny with it?

Have you seen the Christmas Vacation?

Favorite Christmas Movie by generation (according to me):

Silent Gen - Miracle on 34th Street
Boomers - It's a Wonderful Life
Jones/Elder Gen-X - A Christmas Story
Gen-X/Xennials - Christmas Vacation
Millennial - Elf
All of the above - Die Hard

I would like to submit Better Off Dead for consideration for Gen X

EDIT: It certainly is in the "Most Quotable Movie by generation" category.
