List your favorite holiday flicks. I personally can't go a Christmas without at least one viewing of "National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation", MST's "Santa Claus Conquers the Martians", "It's a Wonderful Life" (family thing), and for Thanksgiving--"Trains, Plains and Automobiles" is a standard--and probably the only one...no one makes movies for Thanksgiving. I wanna say that "Dutch" was too but...can't remember exactly.

#1-A Christmas Story, no doubt about it
#2-Christmas Vacation
#3-It's a Wonderful Life

It's a Wonderful Life
White Christmas


And, since the poster didn't specify, the greatest holiday movie of all time, every Easter...THE TEN COMMANDMENTS...

"So let it be written..."

You know what I'm going to get you next Christmas, Mom? A big wooden cross, so that every time you feel unappreciated for your sacrifices, you can climb on up and nail yourself to it.

How the Grinch Stole Chrismas
The Ref

Die Hard and Trading Places if you count them as Christmas movies.


A little sad but funny too. It's not a feel good movie.

forgot about the ref! yeah that is classic. grinch, also, though i think it's more of a "special" or short...like charlie brown christmas, which i also try to catch (although it was played at the end of november by abc...yeesh.)

die hard's great.

Wow I can't believe I forgot this one:

I get the fireplace going to warm the bones.
The wife makes hot chocolate for the kids, some Starbucks for us, popcorn.
The dog takes over the couch, so we all sit around on the floor...

Then I pop in the 2005 White Sox World series DVD

YEAH!!!

We're gonna have the hap, hap, happiest Christmas since Bing Crosby tap-danced with Danny fucking Kaye.
