A Christmas Story: Choose Your Own Adventure!

10 year old Ralphie Parker goes to bed as a young boy on Christmas night in the 1940s, with his shiny new Red Ryder BB gun tucked by his side....

If you think Ralphie's NEXT great adventure should be the following summer, when he finds a top to knock a bully out of a chalk circle in a recess game of "Kill", watch: A SUMMER STORY (1994)

If you think Ralphie's NEXT great adventure should be six years later, when he's old enough to drive and all he wants is a used 1939 Mercury Eight convertible for Christmas, watch: A CHRISTMAS STORY 2 (2012)

If you think Ralphie's NEXT great adventure should be 30 years later, when he's moved to Chicago in the early 70s and has a wife named Sandy and two kids, then returns home for Christmas, watch: A CHRISTMAS STORY CHRISTMAS (2022)

And if you watch to see Ralphie's original Christmas adventure all over again, but as a tacky live television musical version, watch: A CHRISTMAS STORY LIVE! (2017)

I'll give it to you, this is kind of a creative post.

The summer film though is called My Summer Story. There is a film called A Summer Story, but it is entirely different.

I remember when the musical aired. I only caught the first few minutes of it but have thought about circling back and watching the whole thing.
