Your Christmas movie Top 10 list

[dblv25]

Better Off Dead not getting any love?! Gremlins?!

Excellent choices and laughing my ass off at the link, haha. Are those really considered Christmas movies though? Set around Christmas time, yes, but that's like saying Team America is a love story (puppet sex scene...wow) or Dances with Wolves is about the Civil War

 

[DARTH ANIBAL]

Not a top ten from me, either, but these are my "must-see"s for the season:

A Christmas Story
Gremlins
Edward Scissorhands
Charlie Brown Christmas
Scrooged
Home Alone

Die Hard is not a Christmas film, but we all agree it's "A Christmas film".... all I know is, when ever some one in my family or at work says the word "Christmas", one of the smart asses says "CHRIIIIIIIIIISSSSS MASSSSSS" like Ricky's mom, lol!!!

Wow...

Yes, thank you!

Scrooge (1970) - IMDb

This is my all time favorite Christmas move. I *love* this film, and it gets me every time I watch it. Albert Finney is brilliant.

If you havent seen it, you are missing out.

The movies/shows I have to watch every year are:

1. Christmas Vacation
2. Home Alone
3. Home Alone 2
4. Elf
5. A Christmas Story
6. Merry Christmas, Mr. Bean (good taste, celticruins!)
7. SpongeBob's Christmas Special (hillarious)
8. How the Grinch Stole Christmas (the original cartoon)
9. Garfield's Christmas Special
10. Bugs Bunny Christmas (we have it on tape from back in the 80s)
11. The Santa Clause

And then there's the typical rudolph, frosty, and the rest. I just ordered from amazon the Claymation Christmas from the 80s. I haven't seen that in probably 20 years. I just remember the California Raisins were in it.

[The Wook]

1-10. Die Hard

What a tired, old joke. :rolleyes

I might've banned ya for this post alone.

The Wook

ps~Recently saw Bad Santa, not impressed. But I also finally saw Carrey's Grinch film, and thought that was pretty darn good. Not a fan of Taylor Momsen's looks now, but as Cindy Lou Who, she was an adorable child. Baker's make-up was sensational, as usual.

 

[rodneyfaile]

Bad Santa
A Very Harold and Kumar Christmas
How the Grinch Stole Christmas
Home Alone
Elf

and

Four Christmases (Am I the only person who liked this movie?)
