Holiday Inn for nostalgia and then Christmas Story. And who can say no to Charlie Brown? That was the major TV event of the season growing up.

Both my girls saw Elf over the weekend and liked it alot. i thought it was ok, but they already want to see it again.

Sorry Tex, No Christmas Vacation, no dice.

Tis a staple in the Kalapse household around Christmas time.

I used to watch "Santa Claus: The MOvie: all the time when I was a kid than saw it last year and it is bad. I love the Bill Murray "Scrooged".

It's not a movie but "Night of the Meek" was an old Twilight Zone episode where Art Carney played a drunken department store Santa. He finds an old cloth bag which has the ability to give whatever a person wants. He passes out gifts until the bag is empty and someone says he didn't take anything for himself. He replies that his only wish is to do this every year. His wish is granted. It's really good and really warms the heart.

Rod Serling's opening narration: "This is Mr. Henry Corwin, normally unemployed, who once a year takes the lead role in the uniquely popular American institution, that of the department-store Santa Claus in a road-company version of 'The Night Before Christmas'. But in just a moment Mr. Henry Corwin, ersatz Santa Claus, will enter a strange kind of North Pole which is one part the wondrous spirit of Christmas and one part the magic that can only be found... in the Twilight Zone."

I haven't seen it in years but it's unforgettable.

The Wife Adores A Christmas Story.

 

I'm becoming more a fan of "Its a wonderful life" with age.

By "Scrooge", I assume you mean the 1951 Christmas carol adaptation with Alastair Sim in the lead role, and not Bill Murry's "Scrooged" (which is itself quite fun). The Alastair Sim Christmas Carol is THE Christmas Carol, and I'll have words with any man who sez otherwise.

 

For anybody who hasn't seen it, the Matt Goening and Drew Barrymore animated adaptation of "Olive the Other Reindeer" from a few years back should be a classic by now but I know lots of people have yet to discover it.

That and Scrooged would have gotten my votes if they were on the list. I did vote for A Christmas Story, which is also good stuff.

Home Alone, Elf, and Christmas Vacation.

like as in your children? there's no way I can take that seriously with an avatar like that...lol unless that's your wife...then congrats

Any poll that mis-spells Grinch does not deserve my vote.

 

A Christmas Story hands down.

Home Alone, Elf, and Christmas Vacation.

Boom, boom, and boom.

 

It's a Wonderful Life.

 

Schmaltzy, but whatever, I am woman enough to admit it.

A Christmas Story by a longshot.

It's a Wonderful Life.

I like the heartwarming moment when he decides that getting drunk and killing himself is a good idea

The Alistair Sim Christmas Carol is the only one worth watching. Period. I've got your back, Jim.

 

I love A Christmas Story, too. It should be on every Sox fan's list of favorites. Jean Shepard was a dyed-in-the-wool Sox fan, after all.

I really liked the Muppet version as a kid.

 

And as soon as I saw a typo in the poll, I knew Critic would be the one to point it out

I know it's not your typical kind of Christmas movie, but my current favorite: Bad Santa

sorry but I can't stand A Christmas Story, probably because it's one for 24 hours a day on Christmas. I love Home Alone and I'm a fan of Scrooge, probably because I'm kind of a scrooge when it comes to Christmas.

Bad Santa is becoming a classic in our house.

 

 

Before voting, I knew that "A Christmas Story" would have the most votes. I don't get the infatuation with that movie. I like it, but it always seems to be everyone's favorite.

 

As for my favorites: Home Alone, Elf, It's a Wonderful Life, How the Grinch Stole Christmas, and Christmas Vacation. I can't really say which I like better b/c I always make it a point to watch all of those for Xmas.

I was hoping I could get all the way through and no one would put it so I could.

 

Also, no Die Hard? Lame
