My only question is, how the hell does is take you 30 years to realize they have been using your likeness as popular as this movie is???

There's so much Christmas Story stuff out there that I can understand how he wouldn't be able to keep track of all of it. I never knew the board game existed. So I think it's feasible for him to not know about it.GoChiefs;1349131 wrote:My only question is, how the hell does is take you 30 years to realize they have been using your likeness as popular as this movie is???

That's a good anti-bullying holiday message. Bullies don't win...and they get fucked over as far as royalties go, too!

TBS has made this movie untolerable to a majority of people with that ridiculous annual marathon.

I agree, but to not know ANYTHING existed in 30 years just seems unlikely to me. Seems like he didn't care before and is now broke and looking for a quick paycheck.
