Title: Christmas Movies
Post by: qtrdhd on November 14, 2011, 09:13:57 am: What is your favorite Christmas movie to watch each year? I have quite a few I like, but it doesn't seem like Christmas without watching Rudolph or any of the claymation movies.

Title: Re: Christmas Movies
Post by: sherryinutah on November 21, 2011, 01:38:44 am: IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE is one I enjoy watching every year...especially...on Christmas Eve.

Another one isn't technically a Christmas movie. It's called WHILE YOU WERE SLEEPING with Sandra Bullock. It's a love story that takes place at Christmas time which is why I think of it as a Christmas movie.

I also like some of the traditional ones that show up on TV like the animated version of THE GRINCH WHO STOLE CHRISTMAS. :thumbsup:

Title: Re: Christmas Movies
Post by: Gerianne on November 21, 2011, 06:46:37 am: I like Charlie Brown; Hallmark has movie marathons. They started already - toooooo early - this year. I like new ones; not repeats. I can remember the story from the year before. Sometimes, that takes the fun out of watching them.

Post by: sdecaro558 on November 24, 2011, 09:36:50 am: I am never sure if it counts as a Christmas movie, but my grandmother always wanted to watch It's a Wonderful Life between Thanksgiving and Christmas. That's not a tradition I've continued but it remains my favorite movie around this time of year.

Title: Re: Christmas Movies
Post by: amstewart on November 25, 2011, 08:19:00 am: Our all time favorite Christmas movie is Elf with Will Farrell. My kids laugh so hard during the whole movie. My middle son is a sugar fanatic so we have nicknamed him "Buddy" or "Elf". My husband really likes A Christmas Story, I've seen it too many times. I love all of the kids' cartoons at the holidays too.
