Re: Christmas movies my family looks forward to

It's a tradition that my wife and I watch "White Christmas" on Christmas Eve.


I'd prefer to watch "Batman Returns" or "Lethal Weapon."

Re: Christmas movies my family looks forward to

Here we go again:

Trading Places
Die Hard
Gremlins
We're No Angels
Holiday Inn and White Christmas
Elf
Santa Clause 2
Miracle on 34th Street
A Christmas Carol
Muppet Christmas Carol

I may sit through some of the animated and Rankin/Bass shows. Going to try to watch Babes in Toyland this year for the first time, same with Scrooged. Not a big fan of It's a Wonderful Life, can't stand A Christmas Story.

Here's to holiday screenings!

Re: Christmas movies my family looks forward to

I liked the Ron Howard/Jim Carrey "How the Grinch Stole Christmas".

I loved "A Very Harold and Kumar 3D Christmas".

"Bad Santa" still tops my list. I heard rumors of a sequel. That would be awesome.

Muppet Christmas Carol

The kids like to watch the Santa Clause movies, but I can't get into them.

And it has been a tradition since it aired, to watch the MacGyver christmas episode (The Madonna, season 5 ep 11)

Re: Christmas movies my family looks forward to

Well here is my list:

A Christmas Carol, (George C. Scott, best version ever!)
Christmas Story
Elf, (Uncut, DVD, not USA's rerun all day marathon crap...)
It's a Wonderful Life, (Jimmy Stewart, Donna Reed=Classic!)

Now for the awesome TV classics:

Santa Clause is Coming to Town
Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer
A Charlie Brown Christmas, (I will also listen to the soundtrack repeatedly.)
How the Grinch Stole Christmas
Batman: The Animated Series episode 2: "Christmas with the Joker." (One of the best episodes ever!)

I am sure I missed a few, but these are the ones I KNOW we'll be watching.

Re: Christmas movies my family looks forward to

Personally, it's not really Christmas unless I watch one of two MST3K episodes:

#321 -- Santa Claus vs. the Martians

or

#521 -- Santa Claus


Usually it helps to have a mini MST3K marathon in there, too, since that's what they used to do back on Comedy Central (also for Thanksgiving).
