[Santa_HoHo]

Hey everyone what is your fave Christmas movie... I absolutely love Santa Claus 2 and also I'll be home for Christmas. Whats yours? Post Away!!

[SnowAngelChristmas]

i like "White Christmas" and " It's a Wonderful Life"

[sandieman27]

My fave Christmas movie is A Muppets Christmas Carol and How the Grinch stole Christmas the cartoon and Jim Carrey version.

[HolyNight7]

Well I just saw Christmas with the Kranks for the first time. Someone left me borrow it. While I don't think it will be one of my favorites, I do think it's one that I can put in my list of must sees each season. I think Polar Express has moved to the top of my list along with It's a Wonderful Life. :cool:

[sheepsnot]

The Santa Clause, Muppet Christmas Carol, Christmas Vacation, A Christmas Story, Miracle on 34th Street and It's a Wonderful Life. On TV it's Rudolph and the rest of the Rankin Bass Christmas collection, plus Charlie Brown's Christmas. 8) :grin:

[digbugsgirl]

There is noooo way I can tell you my favorite, so here is a list of must-see in no particular order:

The Grinch (both)
Miracle on 34th Street (both)
It's a Wonderful Life
Rudolph
Frosty the Snowman
Garfield Christmas
Peanuts Christmas
The Polar Express (just bought the dvd :-D )
Santa Claus: The Movie
The Santa Claus (both)
Christmas Vacation
Prancer
Home Alone 1 and 2
A Christmas Carol
Scrooged
any movie on the Hallmark channel :grin:

Okay, I can go on and on, but my brain isn't working too well this morning and this could make for a very long list. I will say, however, that there are two movies that I do not like (don't shoot me for the first one) The Christmas Story and Bad Santa.

Home Alone 1 and 2 - it is like a tradition in my family; every christmas I am watching those two movies :D

[sheepsnot]

Is Home Alone 2 the one in NYC with the bird lady?

[McDLT]

Miracle on 34th Street - original version Although I'm not much of purist - I'm okay with the colourized version or the black and white one.

I also like White Christmas and Christmas Vacation.

[Deo]

Is Home Alone 2 the one in NYC with the bird lady?

Yes, thats Home Alone 2; I like this one even more than the first one:) :grin:

[sheepsnot]

I've never seen Home Alone 3. Is that one any good? I could rent it if the reviews are good enough.

[Deo]

I've never seen Home Alone 3. Is that one any good? I could rent it if the reviews are good enough.

no, i watched home alone 3 and 4... and in my opinion they are not worth to watch...
i mean you cant even compare first two movies with those other two... without john hughes as a writer, m.culkin as a kid, his parents, buzz and joe pesci and daniel stern as a burglars... :)
and I just read, that Home Alone 1: "Entered into The Guinness Book of World Records as the "Highest Box Office Gross - Comedy", accumulating $533,000,000 internationally"
prefect christmas movies, home alone 1 and 2... christmas classics; cant wait to watch em again this xmas :wiggy:

[digbugsgirl]

I don't care for Home Alone 3. It's just not the same. I never even new there was a 4. Don't think I will see it.

Do you remember the song on Sesame Street where they sang, "One of these things is not like the other. One of these things is just not the same."? Goody, you have a list of the best Christmas movies of all time, plus Bad Santa. Was that really a good movie? The previews scared me away. :-o

[Goody26]

Thanks :-D I thought Bad Santa was hilarious. Me, my brother, and sister are always making quotes from the movie. Of course I'm only 19 and their in their early 20s. So maybe our young ages has a part to do with it. The language is quite strong and very often, but we still thought it was great. Just make sure you don't have any small children around when you decide to watch it. haha :lol:

[dvdguy]

having just seen a pinky & the brain christmas I have to say it rates close to the top. It just came out on dvd! Also polar express, muppet family christmas (hard to come by), & Its a wonderful life, #1 on afi's 100 cheers! :D

[sheepsnot]

Is the Pinky & The Brain show an old one? I haven't seen that show in years, but would love to see their Christmas special.

[dvdguy]

From the show, was just released vol. 1 on dvd. Was so happy to see it finally. Awesome special :lol:

[sheepsnot]

Whoohoo! Off to B*** B** or Ebay! Thanks for the tip. 8)

[dvdguy]

is b*** b** a dirty word here?

[sheepsnot]

If I thought about long it enough, I could come up with one, I guess. I just wonder how much I can say without sounding like I'm advertising for somebody. It was, of course, Best Buy.

[dvdguy]

just wanted to make sure it was not something that would upset people

[mrshfromjersey]

I have to say that I absolutely LOVED the movie Elf. Probably only Will Farrell movie that I would allow my non-existent (for now) children to see.

[sheepsnot]

How old/young are you guys, anyway? You go back and forth like you've been married 50 years, but you're still planning on having children, so cough up the stats! If you don't mind.

[mrshfromjersey]

How about "Olive, the Other Reindeer"????

:D

[dvdguy]

that christmas with Sintra with Crosby we got kicked butt! :)

[SC]

Hey everyone what is your fave Christmas movie... I absolutely love Santa Claus 2 and also I'll be home for Christmas. Whats yours? Post Away!!

My favorite Christmas movie is also my all time favorite movie: It's a Wonderful Life. (http://www.angryalien.com/1204/wonderful_lifebuns.asp) I definitely relate to George Bailey for some reason...

[caseydbell]

Charlie Brown Christmas... It has everything

[ReineV]

Ouch, can't pick just one...but I'll pick my top five!
(In no particular order)
- A Charlie Brown Christmas
- Home Alone (1&2)
- Love Actually
- While You Were Sleeping
- National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation

[candycanemartini]

Well if the cartoons count then definitely Charlie Brown Christmas, Flintstones Christmas and the Grinch! I also love White Christmas, Santa Claus and SC2, Elf, Home Alone and Christmas Vacation. Oh and I know that I'm probably the only person in the world (besides my hubby that is) that likes Surviving Christmas but I really thought it was good. Boy did I get that dvd cheap on Ebay, lol :-D

[MarthaK]

It's A Wonderful Life
A Charlie Brown Christmas
Christmas in Connecticut (original)
The Bishop's Wife (original)
Home Alone 1
A Christmas Carol (TNT version starring Patrick Stewart)
A Christmas Story

[Christmas Cheers]

I'd have to give the nod to "A Christmas Story". Even when they run it all day Christmas day I still can't seem to get enough.




:merry:

[sheepsnot]

Do you guys find that watching Christmas movies is always better if several people are watching with you? I love Christmas Vacation, but I don't laugh nearly as much if I watch it by myself. Now, A Muppet Christmas Carol is better to me if I'm by myself because I don't look as silly singing along. 8)
