Best/Favorite Christmas Movies of All Time

[Montanalo]

A Wonderful Life and, any number of A Christmas Carol renditions.

One set of movies we watch every Christmas season is the Harry Potter movies.

A foreign film we also always watch every year is (English translation), Irony of the Fates, a Russian romantic comedy set in the mid-70's

A must watch for me during the Christmas season. Absolutely love this movie.

Ditto here .. with regards to Black and White version.
I've never seen a B&W classic version that was brought to acolored version that did not look like a a murky spray paint job.....

Yep on Potter, up to The Half-Blood Prince right now.

The Lord of the Rings is what I follow that up with and they have nothing to do with Christmas except that's when they were released, with great anticipation, so I connect them to this time of year.

And I am gonna admit it right now, when my wife was alive, Love Actually was a must watch every year and I did enjoy the feel good vibe.

I like the comedies and dark Xmas stuff.

Scrooged
Elf
Bad Santa
National Lampoon's Xmas
Die Hard

So yeah, that new movie with the guy from Black Widow and Stranger Things playing a gun-toting Santa is right up my alley.

Chic Flick but really liked love actually. Great music, multiple story lines. Young Keira knightly.

A Christmas Story is a comedy, as told from the now adult, about his childhood, the year he asked for a BB rifle for Christmas.
A Christmas Carol is the Scrooge story, with the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Future.

Not just any BB gun.......

Seems like it's been a host of Ebenezer Scrooge movies.
Which ones have been the better ones ?

My wife has spoken: let the Harry Potter marathon movies begin... safe decision since it is a full blown blizzard outside

The UK one from 1970 that I listed is far better than any other I've ever seen. It's 3rd on their list.
