I was wondering what Christmas specials/movies everyone likes...seeing that it is this time of the year...it seems approriate to ask...

 

My Fav...

 

Nat'l Lampoons Christmas Vacation

 

Honorable mention...Home Alone 1 - it just makes me laugh

 

Least fav

 

Christmas Story - you'll shoot your eye out...argghhh!!!

My favorite. I can't remember the name but it's the cartoon with the little mouse that has to fix the big clock for the town.

 

Least favorite is probably Miracle on 34th Street. I never liked It's a Wonderful Life either until my wife made me watch it every year. Now I like it. :ph34r:

I'm a bit of a traditionalist...favs are White Christmas, Holiday Inn and Christmas Story

 

Least fav would be Bad Santa or any of the drivel that has come out of Hollywood in the past 10 years posing as a Christmas movie.

Fav is A Christmas Story

 

Least Favorite Christmas special has to be the parade specials on Christmas day :lol: As far as movies go, most likely Elf. I thought it was terrible.

I don't mind Christmas Story but as far as supposed "Christmas classics" go it's my least favorite by far.

 

Favorite is easily It's a Wonderful Life followed by Christmas Vacation. The original Miracle on 34th Street is great.

 

Most of the Christmas movies from the last 15 years or so are completely terrible with Elf as a big exception.

Even though it may be a cliche one - Charlie Brown to me still stands the test of time. The dancing scene, the music, CB's lonely walk after 'killing' his tree', Linus' monologue - all classic. I grew up having over 30 paperbacks w/ Peanuts cartoons - my daughter reads them now.

Favorite has got to be Christmas Vacation...watch it every Christmas eve

 

Least favorite by far is A christmas story, I despise that movie with all my being...and of course this year they had to make the commercial with the phone in the christmas story style....blah

I know many people say "A Christmas Story" is an all time classic, and I'm not saying its a bad movie, but I just cant stand how it is on 87 times in 2 weeks every single year. Its annoying.

My favorite is Elf. Christmas Vacation is a close second, and I like Christmas Story, partially because it was filmed in my hometown.

 

Least favorite is Bad Santa. I swear that movie was made just to shock people. Playing a F-bomb spewing Santa wasn't funny, Billy Bob.

 

(and yes, ajzepp, I actually saw Bad Santa) :(

Favorite- Nightmare before Christmas (I know it's a halloween film, but I would argue it can count as both)

 

Least Favorite- That Tim Allen movie where he becomes Santa Claus.

with the exception of Lauren Graham - one of the most underrated hotties in film, IMO - I was disappointed with 'Bad Santa' too.

I don't know why she isn't higher on the 'hottie' ladder, you know? Not only is she amazingly hot, she's got a really great personality! :wallbash:
