    Has anyone seen the next movie they made? It used to run on the Disney Channel and I had a crappy VHS copy..... Ollie Hopnoodles Haven of Bliss. Its the same voice over and same family going on a fishing vacation. New adventures and tons of laughs. I watched on YouTube just the other day. Its broken up into 10 parts.

    Long out of print, but Jean Shepherd (the narrator and writer of A Christmas Story) book "Wanda Hickey's Night of Golden Memories and Other Stories" is full of Ralphie stories, including a county fair story and the demolition derby.

    I just watch the same scene less than 5 minutes ago. Great movie. I was at Walgreen's the other day and the had some of the leg lamps like in the movie. They where only about 14" tall but they where still cool.

    I think the roadster is actually a sport coupe with the doors cut.
