Funny. It’s also my oldest daughter’s favorite Christmas movie. My grandson turns 8. I’ve asked her what I should get him, and she says she doesn’t know. I told her she has until tomorrow to let me know or he’s getting an official Red Ryder, carbine action, two-hundred shot range model air rifle. She laughed and said “he’ll shoot his eye out." She hates guns, but all he talks about is having a BB gun (and his father is a policeman). She said if I get him one it’s going to stay at my house, which is fine with me (I bet she'll have to visit a lot more). And I had one at his age.
