What's your favorite Xmas (that's right, XMAS) movie?

Mine's a close one between Christmas Vacation & It's a Wonderful Life. I have to go with CV b/c IAWL makes me cry every time I see it. Not in a bad way, but it's just not as much fun.
 
A Christmas story is my favorite movie too. I don't think I'll ever get sick of it. It is so funny!!!
 
Gayle,

Do you find yourself watching bits and pieces of it all day long when it's on for 24-hours xmas day??? I watch it all the way through once, and then keep checking back...

I Double Dog Dare You to do it if you don't already!

Miracle on 34th Street. I look for that one every year along with Holiday Inn, White Christmas and A Christmas Carol.
 
I don't keep checking back all day, but it's one of those movies that if I find it on when I'm channel surfing, I'm stuck until it's over.

I do the same thing Jaws...drives DH nuts! :D
 
This is a hard one because I love so many of them. Based solely on humor, A Christmas Story is as funny as it gets, and the only crying you'll do is the kind that comes from laughing too hard.

It's a Wonderful Life, A Christmas Carol (the Alastair Sim version), and Miracle on 34th Street (the one with Maureen O'Hara and Natalie Wood) round out the the top 4. I must see all of these at least once every year.

ETA how could I forget How the Grinch Stole Christmas!?!?!? This is right up there on my list of all time favorites. And not that god awful Jim Carey perversion of the classic with Boris Karloff.
 
It's a toss up, depending on my mood.....A Christmas Story, Polar Express, or Santa Claus Is Coming To Town
 
My favorite as a kid was "Rudolph the red nosed raindeer". As an Adult "Christmas Vactation" and "Christmas Story" and "Home Alone" to name a few. I also enjoy all those older Christmas movies. I love Christmas movies.:)
 
Christmas Vacation....that movie is SO funny, yet SO true!!! I have actually had a few christmases like that, only at the time I wasn't laughing.
 
Oh my, I just can't choose! I have so many favorites!


#1 Christmas Vacation.
#2 The Grinch who Stole Christmas.
#3 Miracle 34th Street
#4 Christmas Story.
#5 Bad Santa..... had me rolling in tears!
 
A Christmas Story.

Does anyone remember the TV movie The House Without a Christmas Tree?

Christmas Vacation, A Christmas Story, It's a Wonderful Life, and OMG, I can't believe I'm admitting this, but Gremlins is one of my favorites too, LOL! Just takes me back to when I was young. BUT...my all time favorite movie that I have to watch every year no matter what is The Ref. :7 :D

"IAWL makes me cry every time I see it"

EXACTLY :D

DH insists on watching it at least once per Christmas season. He and I both get teary. Last nite was our first yearly viewing nite. I musta been kinda moody, cause ya'll, I actually squalled a coupla times :)

I'll have to watch it again 'cause we just lurve it!!!

Plus, I'm really gettin' into Christmas this year. I've been kinda 'bahumbug' the last few years.:p
