But you showed Elf and Polar Express too....????

The Polar Express has the most magical North Pole followed closely by the Santa Clause series.

The Santa Claus is definitely what popped in my mind first. I've never seen The Polar Express, but I read the book as a kid, and it seemed amazing also

It's a truly magical and incredible movie. Over the years it has leapfrogged almost every other Christmas movie to the number 1 spot on my list simply because it has it all: Whimsy, wonder, a great message, nostalgia, ghosts, the incredible magic of Christmas Eve, the North Pole, Santa Claus, elves....it has everything.

And it's so perfectly filmed that its both creepy and wondrous...which is the best combination.

You should watch the movie.

Pretty easily The Santa Clause I'd say. You have to see it for the longest period of time and accept it. It works as a factory and as a magical place and it doesn't get overly technological. Polar Express is alright too but the buildings look less whimsical.

One North Pole left off this list- Arthur Christmas.

Out of the pictures, I would like to imagine the North Pole as Fred Clause's

Mizzou I agree 100% about The Polar Express. It is our families tradition to watch it first. It is very special. It hits me in that special place every year watching it with my kids. Its also probably the first movie my 3 year old son sat and watched the entire thing engrossed in it and didn't move

Ice Station Zebra. By far the most realistic.

Santa Clause has different North Pole styles through the 3 movies. I prefer the first North Pole, it seemed the most magical and innocent.

Polar Express was really great, but seemed too much like a regular city.

Just look at the pics posted. Lots of sterile red brick buildings. It was a massive sprawling factory the size of a city. Look at all the cooling towers/chimney stacks.

I was an adult when I saw it, seemed more like work instead of magical.
