Since some were listing Christmas movies in the Biblical films threads, thought this would be fun! My list is very cliche but include the films I watch pretty much every year around Christmas:

-How the Grinch Stole Christmas (the 1966 cartoon by Chuck Jones)
-Die Hard
-The Santa Clause (only the first one, Tim Allen is a boss in this role)
-Frosty the Snowman (cartoon by Rankin/Bass)
-Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer (the stop motion film from the 1960s)
-Home Alone 1 and 2
-Elf
-The Polar Express
-Scrooged
-Gremlins


Still need to see:
-Jingle All The Way
-National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation

Also seriously good and under valued by many. I could watch this in July

It's fricking October, man. At least wait for Halloween. We'll bump the Home Alone thread at that point.

I'm extremely confident that's the movie I've seen the most. Well over 100 times. It never gets old. I don't typically watch it in October though.

It's nitpicky for sure, but come on man, it's horror season. You've only got 2 weeks for it to become appropriate.

It reminds me of this from South Park:

I'm a December baby, never too early. How is A Christmas Story not mentioned?

How is it possible for someone to make a Christmas movie thread and has never seen Christmas Vacation?

Good thread for the day after Thanksgiving, until then, let's chat about horror films.

No classics?

It's a Wonderful Life

Holiday Inn (everyone mentions "White Christmas", but this is the first movie that song was in).

A Christmas Carol/Scrooge/Scrooged--I can watch any version.


And, of course, Die Hard.
