Default Christmas Movies - What is Your Favorite?

What is your favorite Christmas move?

For me it has to be A Christmas Story. I have seen that movie 100s of times and it never gets old, still find it funny. One of the TV channels plays it every year for 24 hours straight. So from like 8 pm Christmas Eve until 8 pm Christmas day my TV stays on that channel. I watch it at least one full time during that time and on and off the rest of the time.

During the Christmas season I dig through my DVD and VHS collection ,which is extensive,
and pick out every movie I can think of that has even the mention of Christmas in it.
I don't care that the world makes money on it , or certian churches paganize it . I really don't care how others think about Christmas.
I live alone , I enjoy my life , I help others when I can, and move on with my life .
I got tired of caring about others, not caring . Too much wasted emotion, for what ?
I love the time of year, and the snow and the lights .
I find it rather comical actually , that some cities have yielded to the athiest and do no decoration, but they still have lights blinking red and green all year long, like it or not.
I know God loves me, and shows me that love all the time .
It is just another day, but I don't need to name it differently, to appreciate what God has given me.
To me, giving shouldn't be limited to once a year.
People need loving year round. ( not talking about the mushy stuff )
Simple kindness with out noteriety. completely anonimious. Life is much simpler that way.
Sharing gifts to people that cannot repay you , and you do not use that later for leverage either.
That is the spirit of christmas. to me.

I love Home Alone as well, it's classic. I like White Christmas it isn't my favorite but it's a okay movie to sit down and watch. I don't consider it much of a Christmas movie considering you only get 5 minutes of actual Christmas at the end, but I don't mind watching it.

Me too. One of my all-time favorite movies. I still quote from it. I actually saw it in the theater when it first came out. I think it was me and four other people. Loved it then. Love it more every time I watch it.
