John Hughes , usually set his movies in Chicago , Illinois . Winnetka , Illinois is the residential area seen in Home Alone 1 and 2 , Ferris Bueller , Uncle Buck and She's having a baby ... Evaston , Illinois is in 16 Candles and the glass house in Ferris Bueller is in Highland Park , Illinois ... all in Chicago metropolitan area 🙂 National Lampoons vacations movies , with Chevy Chase , are about the father of the family , kids are played by different actors in every movie , they are side characters . Boss in this movies was played by Bill Murrays older brother Brian and Randy Quaid , cousin Eddie , seem to have gone mad in last years .

[@oktomcat]

What I loved about this film is that it depicts Christmas perfectly, and most families can relate to it. Leading up to Christmas, everything is hectic, and nothing seems to go as planned. But when Christmas day arrives, everything works out.

[@Jpew2007]

The joke about Clark forgetting the saw actually has more to it. There’s been promo shots (I remember seeing some on the back of the first blu-Ray I had of it) of the Griswold family going to a tree lot to buy a tree. But the lot is very lousy so instead of sucking it up and going to a different lot Clark just walks his family into the woods to find a tree. He was fully intending to just buy a tree, that’s why he didn’t bring the saw.

[@OfficialHoDawg]

Where did you hear that?

[@Waldorf-2020]

@@OfficialHoDawg It was in some of the original TV ads. The trailers played so much, I always forget that the scene got cut.

[@Jpew2007]

@@OfficialHoDawg I figured it out after I got my first copy of the film (after the VHS era). Like I said the manufacturer put images from scenes of the film on the back of the box, but one of those images shows Clark and his family in front of a tree lot. And it looks like they’re talking to the owner/employee who’s sleeping on the job (possibly drunk) I’ve watched this film a million times and I’ve NEVER seen anything that looks remotely like that image. So it seems likely that it was a scene filmed but ultimate cut.

[@OfficialHoDawg]

@@Waldorf-2020 I know that, it's just that what they're saying is not correct. The scene with the family in the lot takes place after Clark finds the tree in the deep woods and asks for a saw.

Chevy Chase was also very good friends with the founder of National Lampoon and did a lot of work with him in the 70s. And then John Hughes wrote for it in the 80s. I remember finding old issues of National Lampoon in my grandparents basement, that presumably belonged to my uncles. It was like Mad magazine, but with raunchier humor, laid out like a more typical print magazine than Mad was, and much to the delight of my 14-year-old self, had naked ladies in it 😁.

The order of the NL movies are: 1)National Lampoon's Vacation 2)National Lampoon's European Vacation (which has Erik Idle from Monty Python in it) 3) National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation 4) Vegas Vacation They also have a recent movie called "Vacation" that starts with Clarke's son, Rusty, and his family.

[@Trifler500]

7:04 - Oh man... I remember those incandescent Christmas lights. They were always breaking, burning out, and used so much electricity. The LED bulbs are sooooo much easier.

[@toob1979]

As some others have pointed out, this is the third _Vacation_ movie. If you watch the two that preceded this one, you'll learn that with Clark Griswold, anything worth doing is worth overdoing. That's why he always gets into these zany situations. However, as you so beautifully noted, he is a family man at heart. He wants to please them more than anything. It's worth looking up Chevy (pronounced with a hard *ch,* like in the word *check)* Chase's other films, because they're very funny. Most of what he made in the 1970s and 80s is good. The quality of his movies trailed off in the 90s and beyond. Russ is played by Johnny Galecki, who's most known for his role as Leonard in _The Big Bang Theory._ Audrey is played by Juliette Lewis, who has a bunch of other roles for which she's better known. I recommend _Natural Born Killers_ or _Strange Days_ as a couple of her good dramatic turns. One of the gags for the _Vacation_ series is the kids are played by different actors in each movie, and they trade places as to which child is the elder child. William Hickey (Uncle Lewis) was a great character actor. His stature and nasal voice were his calling cards.

[@JMulvy]

Stogie is slang for cigar. Eddie is Ellen's cousin. Eggnog is quite tasty! It is very dessert-like like a sweetened creamy vanilla ice cream drink, people usually garnish it with a dash of cinnamon and nutmeg. Aunt Bethany is 100% my mother. When she comes into the house and they tell her to go say hello to everybody and she replies with an ecstatic "Hello Everybody!" I die laughing every time. That is just like my mother. She is not all there but we love her nonetheless.

While filming the scene where Clark takes out his frustrations over the Christmas lights not working on the lawn ornaments, Chevy Chase broke his little finger when he punched the Santa Claus. That's why he started kicking them instead.

The script Hughes gave him was for another screenplay he had written called "Home Alone" Chevy Chase (Clark), Randy Quaid (Cousin Eddie), Julia Louis-Dreyfus (Margo), and Brian Doyle-Murray (Mr. Shirley) have all been cast members of Saturday Night Live.
