I'm 36 and idk what it is but it seems like I get more and more sensitive to these things as I get older. Knowing that Santa needs a little bit more power just by Walter singing out loud and then taking off full blast on full Christmas Spirit gives me goosebumps and I tend to get teary eyed. It's just a beautiful magically moment.... Merry Christmas Everybody!

While Santa may or may not be real, your family is. Your friends are. Your children are. You being good to people is very real. And that truly is the christmas spirit. To spend time with your loved ones and friends and making memories you'll cherish forever. That is the Christmas Spirit, that is what Santa would want. And in a way, with us following through, Santa really does come to town.

Buddy is right: The best way to spread Christmas cheer is singing loud for all to hear. I would say that living with elves in all your life can have some benefits. Everyone should be surprised and gasping at the sight of Santa Claus, proving his existence and restoring their Christmas spirit.

But its themes of family, inner youth and finding your place in the world are what makes it shine through. RIP Ed Asner

Elf is a pretty average xmas movie, but for some reason this scene in particular just always brings a tear to my eye.

Elf is above average for a Christmas movie... I don’t know why this comment has over 100 likes.

[@hotpopslollipop]

@@TheCeraization Personally it’s a movie that got less funny as I got older (another similar movie that I’ve watched less as an adult is The Grinch), whereas movies like Love Actually, Home Alone, Miracle on 34th Street, A Christmas Carol, The Holiday were just as enjoyable when I was 10 as they are now at 27. I’m not saying it’s a bad movie, but in my opinion it isn’t as enjoyable as it once was :)

3:01 is the part that touches at your inner child, mostly all the people in the frame look well into their 30s, probably have kids, jobs, stresses of adult life, and forgot what it was like to believe in Santa as a kid, and then seeing the man they believed in as kids fly right over their heads, my reaction would probably be the same.
