Best Christmas movie ever?

[DutchJazzer]

Um, okay. You obviously haven't been following that religion thread. But I'm not talking about whether they are Jesus-approved or not. There are Christmas movies that can be considered as such per their theme. They are most and foremost about Christmas. There are other movies that are about something else entirely, but are set on Christmas for style. If we're talking about the former, then A Christmas Story is best, If we're talking about the latter, then I'll go with Die Hard. I don't know which I like better, since they are very different.

sorry.

 

[Scat]

sorry.

Yes you are.

 

[Chris-L]

Elf.

 

[One Brow]

I never tire of Patrick Stuart's version of Scrooge.

A Christmas Story and it's not even close.

This. It was an instant classic. We watch it every year and it is always great.

 

[The Black Swordsman]

Gremlins, Die Hard, and Home Alone are the famous answers.

I like all the Charlie Brown specials so also Charlie Brown Christmas for me.

Elf was great, Charlie Brown Christmas is a classic... and yet for me (as with many others here) the clear answer is A Christmas Story. I love everything about that movie.

I'm ashamed to admit that I've never seen A Christmas Story.

Christmas Vacation. Love cousin Eddie.

All of the above and Bad Santa. And although it's not a movie, How the Grinch Stole Christmas is must watch. Too bad there's never been a movie about the Grinch. Too bad no good movie exists. It's a shame.

You should be.
