1. My all time favorite Christmas movie is “It’s A Wonderful Life.” It’s tradition that we watch it as a family every Christmas Eve before we go to bed. Love this movie!
2. “Miracle of 34th Street”, on of the best classic holiday movies there is!
3. I don’t know if you’d call it a Christmas movie, but I think of it as a winter movie, “Narnia, The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe.” I could watch this movie over and over again! It’s magical!
4. “The Santa Clause” is one of our favorite family movies.
5. “The Santa Clause 2″ is also great! I haven’t seen SC3 yet…anyone have a review?
6. And what Christmas would be complete without a viewing of “National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation!” Need a laugh, this is your movie!
7. We just saw this movie this past week, “Deck the Halls” and it is really cute! It will be one we add to our DVD collection of holiday movies!
8. “A Christmas Story” great movie! Best line…”You’ll shoot your eye out kid!”
9. “Elf” and being not a huge Will Farrell fan I have to say, I love this movie!!
10. “Christmas with the Kranks” Loved this movie too…have you noticed I love alot of these movies? LOL
11. “A Christmas Carol” starring Allistair Sims as Scrooge..this is the best version ever made!
12. “How the Grinch Stole Christmas” is one of those movies that just brings you back to feeling like a kid again.
13. That’s a list of some of my favorite holiday movies, I’m leaving #13 for you to fill. Tell me what is your favorite Christmas movie?

Of your list I’ve only seen It’s a Wonderful Life and Narnia. I love both of those as well as George C. Scott’s Christmas Carol and White Christmas.

These movies would make a great Christmas tradition! I LOVE National Lampoon’s Christmas. I haven’t seen it in awhile. Love the cat scene

Awesome Christmas favorites!
Maybe it’s the kid in me, but my all-time favorite is, “The Year Without A Santa Claus”. I just love the Snow Mizer/Heat Mizer song. Fun, fun!

you know, we UVA grads have a story about the Grinch. We’re the Hoos down in Hooville (Suess’s daughter went to UVA) and the grinch is the guy who snubbed the city and built his house on the hill higher than the Rotunda.

I’m not sure what my favorite Christmas movie is. I do like the nutcracker though!

Happy “Grinchy” TT from Germany,

Have you seen the original version of The Bishop’s Wife? It’s my shared fav; the other is Scrooged, with Bill Murray
said:
Good choices sis….I love the older movies too like Christmas in Connecticut, and it can’t be Christmas without Bing Crosby and Danny Kaye’s classic “White Christmas.”
said:
i’m definitely going to see Narnia this month!
happy TT!
said:
Check out Home for the Holidays. It’s not as comical as, say “Christmas with the Kranks” (read the John Grisham short story upon which that movie is based - it’s a good one), but it definitely rings true.
Miracle on 34th Street was on this past weekend, on AMC - did you catch it?
said:
Love Dr. Seuss!
said:
Miracle On 34th Street is MY all time favorite Christmas movie! Ya know… when I was a kid, I don’t think there even WERE 13 Christmas movies! And now you have a list of 13 FAVORITES!!! That’s kinda … weird to me… I think I’m feeling OLD suddenly!
said:
well my favorite is “Its a Wonderful Life” because my favorite actor was Jimmy Stewart.
said:

said:

Great list! Hubby loves Christmas Vacation. He has to watch the DVD at least 2 times every year to get in the Christmas spirit. It’s funnier now to watch him watch it because he still laughs out loud right through it!
I love A Christmas Story. We just saw Christmas with the Kranks this year and it was pretty good.
Can you believe I only saw “It’s a Wonderful Life” for the first time last year?
One new holiday movie tip for you ~ just saw The Holidays this weekend with Cameron Diaz, Jude Law, Kate Winslet and Jack Black. Really enjoyed it!
