This is awesome!

But, I can't believe the movie wasn't ruined by at least a dozen cars and/or trucks driving by during the taping.

Actually, one of the really BIG Christmas Lights display is not far from where I live here in Marietta, GA.

It's the "Lights of Life" that is put up on the campus of the Life University. Due to some problems over the past few years there was no display last year. But, the new administrators promised it would be up again this year. People come from far and near to see these as they cover the entire campus.

Okay either some one has too much free time, or we're seeing the guy's house who does lighting for rock shows.

lol, I bet his neighbors hate him, he probably has giant speakers, and he just blasts them the whole night long while flashing his lights! I bet they do it every year too, but this year got a camera as an early christmas gift

When the time comes, I'll post some pictures in here of the couple that instead of going to Florida every year spend thousands on christmas lights. Their electrical bill during that time is around 2,000$ in lights alone for a month or so. Great people though and it surprises me every year that they have kept the tradition.

I've sent the link to several email pals, and also posted on other forums. Everyone is totally amazed/astounded by the display. Just simply 'jaw-dropping'.
