Favorite Christmas Movies
« on: December 24, 2014, 08:46:17 am »
What is your favorite Xmas movie? And by Xmas movie, I mean any movie that is set during the holiday season, not just those that have their plot centered around the holidays.

For me, I enjoy It's a Beautiful Life for its message, esp. since the holiday season can sometimes be depressing for some people like those that have lost loved ones. For a comedy, I like National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation... Although not as great as the original Vacation movie, I still think it is a pretty funny look at the holidays for an average family. Finally for an action movie, I'd have to say Die Hard (remember that the employees inside Nakatomi Plaza were having their company's Christmas party). This film actually launched Bruce Willis' role in action movies. But what I really enjoyed about the movie is the plot twist that emerged.

My favorite movie is, "A Christmas Story." This film is a Christmas classic.  An excellent film, my family loves watching it each year.

I can't pick one - there are so many and new ones every year.  I like the Hallmark movies.

I have seen a few this year. I like them all.
Hallmark is a wonderful channel!
The Christmas Ornament was the one I saw last night.
Santa Claus Jr. was a good one.

I like How the Grinch Stole Christmas. The cartoon not the live action one. I also really like the Peanuts Christmas special and The Nightmare before Christmas.

My favorite movie is Christmas Vacation.  I still love the old cartoons Christmas specials, Rudolph, Santa Claus is Coming to Town, A year without a Santa Claus and Frosty.  I guess reminders of my childhood

I guess that's why I didn't really list those older kids movies as favorites of mine... The enjoyment really isn't from the movie itself but rather the nostalgia that those movies bring. But from that standpoint, I do like those movies too; even seeing a short clip reminds me of my childhood Christmases.
