Thursday Thirteen#120 – Fav Christmas Movies

TT_wonderful.jpg

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”, one 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. Love Tim Allen as Santa!

5. “The Santa Clause 2″  and “The Santa Clause 3″ are also great! We make sure we watch all three each season!

6. And what Christmas would be complete without a viewing of “National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation!” Need a laugh, this is your movie! This movie makes an appearance year round with our family….just don’t ask my sister to say grace!! lol

Great list! I’m an extreme traditionalist when it comes to Christmas movies. I love most of the “old” ones and not as many of the new ones )

Merry Christmas!

My TT this week was very similar. I just did it on movies and holiday kid specials. You had my all time favorite in your list. National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation. If I had to ad one to your list it would be Polar Express.

It’s not a movie exactly, but we always watched it on Christmas day…’The Snowman’ by Raymond Briggs….a beautifully animated movie about a boy and his snowman. Maybe only available in England, I’m not sure.
That, ‘Carols from Kings’ (the Cathedral that is) on Christmas Eve afternoon, and The Queen’s speech was our must watch list. We also watched loads of stuff on Christmas Day evening but after all the food and wine we don’t remember much of it!

My fave is your #11. To me, Alistair Sim is Scrooge. We have it on DVD — and I made sure I had the black and white version, not th ecolorised abomination. B/W makes the ghost scenes much scarier and it captures the feeling of early Victorian London.
