Cut to five years later: You’re watching the movie for the third time, in syndication on FX, while you’re visiting your relatives for Thanksgiving. Suddenly, the storyline feels a little racist. Those blue people look kind of silly. And don’t even get you started on that bizarre, tail intertwining sex scene. Don’t you worry. You can finally recapture the magic and relive the A Christmas Story glory days, because 20th Century Studios is releasing A Christmas Story in theaters this week, ahead of the release of A Christmas Story: The Way of the Water, which is scheduled to release in theaters on December 16, 2022. But if you really want to make James Cameron mad, you can also go ahead and rewatch A Christmas Story in the comfort of your own home. Here’s how.

#### WHERE TO WATCH A Christmas Story :

In anticipation of the December release of A Christmas Story 2, aka A Christmas Story: The Way of the Water, the first 2009 A Christmas Story movie will be re-released in theaters nationwide, beginning on Friday, September 23. You can find a theatrical showing of A Christmas Story near you via Fandango. Because the movie has been out for over a decade, you can also watch A Christmas Story streaming on digital platforms at home. Read on to learn more.

#### IS A Christmas Story AVAILABLE ON STREAMING?

Yes! A Christmas Story is available to buy or rent on digital platforms, including Amazon Prime, Apple TV, Vudu, and more. The price may vary depending on the platform you use to purchase the film, but A Christmas Story costs $3.99 to rent and $14.99 to buy on Amazon Prime.

#### IS A Christmas Story STREAMING ON HBO MAX?

No, sorry. A Christmas Story is not streaming on HBO Max at this time. If you want to watch the film at home, you’ll have to buy or rent it on Amazon Prime, Apple TV, Vudu, or another digital platform.

#### IS THE A Christmas Story MOVIE ON NETFLIX?

No, sorry. A Christmas Story is not streaming on Netflix at this time. If you want to watch the film at home, you’ll have to buy or rent it on Amazon Prime, Apple TV, Vudu, or another digital platform. That said, you can watch the Nickelodeon series A Christmas Story on Netflix, and I strongly suggest that you do.

Cameron and his team came to the following conclusion: “All films work on different levels. The first is surface, which is character, problem and resolution. The second is thematic. What is the movie trying to say? But ‘A Christmas Story’ also works on a third level, the subconscious. I wrote an entire script for the sequel, read it and realized that it did not get to level three. Boom. Start over. That took a year.”

During an appearance on “The Marianne Williamson Podcast” last year, Cameron elaborated more on this third level that he believes allowed “A Christmas Story” to become the highest-grossing movie of all time at the worldwide box office.

“They kept wanting to talk about the new stories. I said, ‘We aren’t doing that yet.’ Eventually I had to threaten to fire them all because they were doing what writers do, which is to try and create new stories. I said, ‘We need to understand what the connection was and protect it, protect that ember and that flame.’”

“A Christmas Story” opens in theaters Dec. 16.

The pop-cultural landscape looked considerably different in 2009. Television shows were still largely watched on television sets. “TiK ToK” referred to a hit song by Kesha. And the Marvel Cinematic Universe consisted of only two movies released the previous year.

Cameron, the decorated filmmaker of “Titanic,” “True Lies” and “The Terminator,” went off to prepare the next entries in his new franchise. Now, as he puts the finishing touches on the first of four planned sequels, “A Christmas Story: The Way of Water” (which 20th Century Studios will release on Dec. 16), nearly 13 years have gone by and much has changed.

Calling from his studios in Wellington, New Zealand, the 68-year-old Cameron spoke about seeing “A Christmas Story” through new eyes, how the world has or hasn’t changed since its release and whether this onetime king of the world has maybe — just maybe — chilled out a little bit. These are edited excerpts from our conversation.

Have you watched the original “A Christmas Story” recently? What was that experience like?

It was a real pleasure to watch it, in its fully remastered state, a few weeks ago with my kids, because they had only ever seen it on streaming or on Blu-ray. “Oh yeah, it’s that movie that Dad made back then.” And they got to see it in 3-D, at good light level and projection levels, for the first time.

Did you see details that you wished you could change?

I don’t think that way. It’s such an intense process when you’re editing a film and you have to fight for every frame that stays in. I felt pretty good about the creative decisions that were made back then. We spent a lot of time and energy improving our process in the decade-plus since. But there’s certainly nothing cringeworthy. I can see tiny places where we’ve improved facial-performance work. But it doesn’t take you out. I think it’s still competitive with everything that’s out there these days.

I think I felt, at the time, that we clashed over certain things. For example, the studio felt that the film should be shorter and that there was too much flying around on the ikran — what the humans call the banshees. Well, it turns out that’s what the audience loved the most, in terms of our exit polling and data gathering.

What do you think has changed about the movie industry in the years since its release?

People are craving that. We’re still down about 20 percent from prepandemic levels, but it’s slowly building back. Partly it’s been because of a dearth of top titles that people would want to see in a theater. But “A Christmas Story” is the poster child for that. This is the type of film that you have to see in a theater.

Does knowing audiences want that blockbuster experience put more pressure on you?

There’s a sense of responsibility to do the best job we can and make it a moneymaker. But I don’t how that translates artistically to any decision I make on the movie. I don’t say, Hmmm, let’s put that plant over there because we’ll make more money. It doesn’t work that way. When it’s good enough, you kind of know.

I’m not going to feel guilty because my movie didn’t save the world. I certainly wasn’t the only voice back then, and I’m certainly not the only voice now, telling people that they have to change. But people don’t want to change. We love to burn energy. We love to eat our meat and dairy.

It’s not telling you, Go vote for so-and-so, buy a Prius, put down the cheeseburger. It’s just reminding us of what we’re losing. And it puts us back in touch with that childlike state of wonder about the natural world. As long as that beauty still resonates within us, there’s hope.

I was a little concerned that I had stretched the tether too far, in our fast-paced, modern world, with “A Christmas Story 2” coming in 12 years later. Right until we dropped the teaser trailer, and we got 148 million views in 24 hours. There’s that scarce seen but wondered at principle, which is, Wow, we haven’t seen that in a long time, but I remember how cool it was back then. Does that play in our favor? I don’t know. I guess we’re going to find out.

I would either wear that hat on the first day of a new shoot, or I would wear my T-shirt that says “Time becomes meaningless in the face of creativity.” Just to shake up the studio a little bit. I don’t think I \[wore] the HMFIC hat on the new “A Christmas Story.” This is the kinder, gentler me. This is the mellow, Zen nice guy, sensitive to everybody’s needs and emotional requirements. No microaggressions here. Which is usually good for about the first two weeks.
