Alright I have a question for everyone, doing this for science. Favorite Christmas movies? It be the common ones like elf, or can be some random one that no one has heard of. Trying to make sure I have my bases covered on Christmas movies

Tough one: 'Miracle on 34th Street' (the original one) came to mind first but 'White Christmas' is right up there with it. 'Elf' and 'A Christmas Story' are must sees as well. We have dozens of sappy Hallmark ones some of which are really good. My wife's favorite is the 'Nine Lives of Christmas' and I think mine is 'Operation Christmas'.

t's a wonderful life
I like all the animated old movies like.. .Rudolf, Frost the snowman, Little drummer boy, Kris Kringle

Agreed

Are both nine lives and operation the same movie as they are hallmark, haha. Christmas story had a really good sequel that came out a few years ago, had the original cast on it and was well worth watching!

I do love It's a wonderful life though! @AlyciaMarie hates that movie which makes me sad

It's the same in our house. My wife can't stand it.

I need to open gifts at your house if Krampus is on!!
My wife puts on this instrumental Christmas music that makes my liver quiver!

Saw III is saved for when we carve the turkey

You can tell her that brother... she has quick hands, be forewarned! Just duck, you'll be ok.

Well if you want to get technical about it, Hallmark only has one story (well two if you include their mystery shows) but lots of different scenery and actors. Boy meets girl (or boy meets boy post 2015), fall in love, have snow ball fight, get close, have misunderstanding, all fixed, happy ending.

I haven't seen the sequel. I'll have to look for it.

Oh! I forgot about that one. That is a funny movie

 

[Üter]

Did anyone mention "Gremlins"?

 

[kingranch2003]

No Saw III fans in the house? I see how yall are. Where's the Holiday Spirit.

I've seen them all, I'd have to go back and watch a trailer to remember.

Aren't they on like Saw XX or something? LOL

Go figure it’s usps. I never have issues with ups or fedex. But usps? Always seems to have issues with delayed packages!

the tracking just says its been sitting in San Francisco for the past week. all i can get out of anyone is the label must be damaged

Lol He asked for our favorite Christmas movies. How many times can you watch It’s a Wonderful Life or White Christmas. Those are like watching grass grow.
The movies I listed would make background TV for opening gifts.
I also forgot to add The OG Gene Wilder Willy Wonka

The problem I have with most "Christmas" movies, is that they really don't have much to do with Christmas. Even "A Charlie Brown Christmas " is better than most, just because Linus actually recites the real Christmas story from the Bible. Just my 2 cents.
