Good ole Kalle Anka.  Do you partake New Dawn?

[New Dawn]

lol. Well, I've seen it most of my Christmasses so far. And I now most of the lines. So, yes, I guess I do :-)  But it is not sacred to me. Maybe I won't see it tomorrow. I'll let you know:-)

And, Yes, I saw it this Christmas too. The young ones (15 and 17 years old) insisted that we should see it. At the correct time (3pm and not record it). We had 2 foreign visitors that enjoyed seing us all mesmerized by the old mvies with Donald Duck, Mickey Mouse et al.

Traditions are great.  I heard a wacky one where an American entertainment company uses local Swedish broadcasters to broadcast subliminally mesmerizing cartoons from the first half of the 20th century enabling them to readily enter people's homes and steal their stuff while the residents are uninterruptedly transfixed for an hour in front of their TVs.  Crazy stuff.

Lol, I wouldn't be surprised if people wouldn't notice if there was a sneak-in in their house during this hour. Sadly enough I've heard news about organized break-ins in house during the Christmas days. But I guess it happens everywhere during holidays and vacation periods.
