''Tis the season for holiday movies and Bill Murray has gifted us with a classic, Scrooged (1988)
In this modern take on Charles Dickens' "A Christmas Carol," Frank Cross (Bill Murray) is a wildly successful television executive whose cold ambition and curmudgeonly nature has driven away the love of his life, Claire Phillips (Karen Allen). But after firing a staff member, Eliot Loudermilk (Bobcat Goldthwait), on Christmas Eve, Frank is visited by a series of ghosts who give him a chance to re-evaluate his actions and right the wrongs of his past. trailer

I'm gonna watch it again later tonight. It's been a while since I've watched it, but I remember it being a good one (all of Bills are though).
But 1988!?! No way was it that long ago. I'm losing all concept of time. Years tick by like hours.
