Elf is a holiday classic. This Christmas movie is funny, heart-warming, and full of cheer. It’s also just a touch irreverent which is good if you ask me. Will Ferrell is at his best here along with an all-star cast featuring Zooey Deschanel, Edward Asner, Bob Newhart, and James Caan. The holidays are not the same without putting this in the Blu-Ray player for a spin.

Tonight was “Elf” night as a part of the holiday movie season. Here are a few favorite quotes from this terrific movie featuring Will Ferrell, James Caan, Mary Steenburgen, Zooey Deschannel, Ed Asner and Bob Newheart
“We elves try to stick to the four main food groups: candy, candy canes, candy corns and syrup.”
“I planned out our whole day: First, we’ll make snow angels for two hours, and then we’ll go ice skating, and then we’ll eat a whole roll of Toll-House cookie dough as fast as we can, and then to finish, we’ll snuggle.”
“I passed through the seven levels of the Candy Cane forest, through the sea of swirly-twirly gum drops, and then I walked through the Lincoln Tunnel.”
“This place reminds me of Santa’s workshop…except it smells like mushrooms and everyone looks like they want to hurt me.”
“Buddy I hope you find your dad, Thanks Mr. Narwhal”
“I just like to smile; smiling’s my favorite.”
What are your favorite quotes from this modern holiday classic movie?
Will Ferrell is fantastic in this story of a man named Buddy who was raised from infancy in the North Pole by elves who work in Santa’s workshop. He finds his real dad in New York City and adventures ensue with his new found brother. He also finds love with a department store worker named Jovie. Buddy helps restore the Christmas spirit. We love this movie, there is some memorable dialogue that we love to quote all the way through.
