What's your favorite Christmas movie?

[Flycut]

Am I the only one to consider The Family Man as a Christmas movie?

The Battle of the Bulge

[Jim at Gentex]

It's a Wonderful Life is probably my favorite Christmas classic.

I also like the Patrick Stewart version of A Christmas Carol, and of course, Ralphie and the gang in A Christmas Story is also a must see every year!

A Christmas Story...

I just cannot make it through that movie...I've tried several times....to me, bleh!

I remember watching it as a teenager in the 80's.  I've tried to watch it as an adult and I just don't care for it. I'd rather watch Bad Santa.

Did you know at least one of the Bad Santa movies was filmed in montreal even thought it's set in seattle.
I forget if 1 or 2

Trading Places

And my personal take, the attractiveness of the female leads is down by at least 50%.

Watchu talking bout Willis? 😁

I think the appeal is that many people my age can relate to Ralphie and his family.

I absolutely remember getting a BB-gun for Christmas when I was about Ralphie's age.
And just like Ralphie, my Mom was opposed to the idea, but my Dad thought it was a great Christmas gift!

I have never watched it all the way through, just bits and pieces.

A Christmas Story.

I go to my mom's house Christmans morning early before everyone gets there and plop my ass on the couch and turn that movie on. Watch it all day long, then when I get home I keep watching it.

It's the best. You old geezers don't have a sense of humor!

Oh, I HAVE a sense of humor...though many times my humor makes people wonder about my sanity instead

I'm pretty fond of Ernest saves Christmas.

I, too, have a sense of humor. Like JP, it's sometimes a little scary.

That's what happens when you spend your youth listening to Firesign Theater albums while experiencing an altered state.

Example: One their albums that I owned was called Don't Crush That Dwarf, Hand Me The Pliers.


I don't recall them having a Christmas album.
