Favorite Christmas Movie

[Sneegrl]

Mine is It's a Wonderful Life. It's also one of my favorite movies of all time.

On the other end of the spectrum, I also like Bad Santa.

But one movie that is very popular, I just don't get - A Christmas Story. I guess it's supposed to be funny, but I don't even crack a smile. **don't hate me**:couch: I seriously don't understand the love for that movie.



Anyways - what's your favorite holiday movie?

Christmas Vacation

[GLWyandotte]

George C Scott's portrayal of Scrooge is right up there.

[SC Tiger]

A Christmas Story and Christmas Vacation are my two favorites.

That said, weren't the first two "Die Hard" movies set at Christmas?

[Jay9928]

A Christmas Story. Some scenes are funny (I am old), but I love how Ralphie was dying to get the Red Ryder, and his dad said "Hey, that's funny. What's that thing behind the desk....." Classic, what a pop :)

A Christmas Story is far and away my favorite. The narrator is perfect.

The narrator is Jean Shepherd who wrote the book that the movie was based on. The book is In God We Trust: All Others Pay Cash. It is hilarious.

Oh, and Christmas Story is also my favorite Christmas movie.

Has anyone seen Mr Kruger's Christmas? It's a short movie, but really sweet.

[costanza187]

It's a tough call between National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation and A Christmas Story.

[K.Kiser]

In no particular order:

-Santa Clause with Dudley Moore
-The old claymation stuff
-A Christmas Story

Discalimer: I've never seen Miracle on 34th or It's a wondeful life, and my other confession is I really like all of them that I have seen... Christmas is my favorite time of year, not just the day but the season..

All I want for christmas Santa is 2 fat *****es and a bag 'o weed. Naw, make that 2 fat *****es that taste like cheeseburgers so Chico can lick 'em.

Spot on

It just ain't Christmas without 24 hours of a Christmas Story. That's one movie you love or you hate--don't know many on the fence.

[rednoved]

My favorite is probably Elf. That movie just cracks me up.
