Christmas Vacation and The Santa Clause for me.

What about Home Alone? Does it not make the ballot?

Christmas vacation is what I watch throughout December because it comes on alot. Christmas story is my favorite movie though, grew up watching it with my dad every year. He loves it just as much as I do. I don't own the movie because half of the fun is finally catching it on tv.

Christmas Vacation easily and it's not close for me... Can't stand Christmas Story anymore. My wife and her brother watch that shite nonstop on TBS when we go to her parents house on Christmas and it annoys the frick out of me now.

Santa Clause easily in the next decade.

It's not officially Christmas until I've watched A Christmas Story every year.

Christmas Story is the most overrated movie of all time. it pretty much sucks, and I can't get behind watching it every year just because I thought it was awesome when I was 10.

Christmas Vacation on the other hand is hands down the best seasonal film ever made

Two different genres, but I'd say Christmas Vacation just because I prefer a comedy.

i'm glad i wasn't the first to post this. I'm assuming that this movie was awesome back in the 80s and that it just sucks now? It is easily the Christmas movie that I hate the most.

Christmas Vacation...saw it at the movies and have watched it every year since.
