Favourite Christmas movie

[Moxiechick]

I asked earlier about about everyone's favourite Christmas books, so thought I'd start a thread asking everyone what theirs and their children's favourite Christmas movies are.
Mine in the Santa Claus. So many good memories of watching it with my nan, all cosy at Christmas time. My 3 y/o dd became obsessed with home alone last Christmas.
I love being able to talk Christmas and not have eyes rolling

[MoosLikeJagger]

Bad Santa / Diehard

[PeggyMitchell123]

I love all the Christmas films and have loads on DVD but I do love Elf, I watched it as a child and thought it was hilarious and watch it every year.

My nearly 3 year old likes Arthur Christmas and Mickey Mouse's Once Upon a Christmas.

[IfartInYourGeneralDirection]

Elf is a family favourite here as is Arthur Christmas, my five year old watches it all year round, if he's poorly he asked for it

[Amalfimamma]

Santa claus the movie.

I'm showing my age now but went to see it at the cimena as a child, got the video from santa himself the next year and it's been watched every christmas eve since.

[ohidoliketobe]

Elf. It's my favourite film full stop not just christmas film! I do also love Santa Claus: The Movie, reminds me of being a child. I love all christmas films, even the naff american, made for tv ones channel 5 show on weekday afternoons throughout December

[DaisyDaisydoo]

The Muppets Christmas Carol - obviously!!

[CharminglyGawky]

Agree with muppet Christmas carol, it isn't Christmas until the muppets have been watched!

We watch it every Christmas Eve and have done for over 20 years now!

[AverageGayLad]

How has nobody said Polar Express yet???

[SideOrderofChip]

Chipstheeldest and chipstheelder love elf and Arthur Christmas. Dh it's diehard. Mine is love actually

[BettyOBarley]

Not a film as such but The Snowman and also Jingle all the Way!

[featherpillow]

DC favourite is 'An Elfs Story, Elf on a shelf'.
I cant pick between Home Alone, Elf or Polar Express.

[anyoldname76]

my ultimate fave is national lampoons Christmas vacation, but i also love polar express, elf, muppets Christmas carol, scrooged and miracle on 34th street

[MargaretCabbage]

It's A Wonderful Life. I watch it every year, at least once.

[orenisthenewblack]

Miracle on 34th Street no contest. The most recent one with the real Santa in it. You know, Santa who speaks all languages cod he's magic.

[HandbagCrazy]

Muppets Christmas carol here, although home alone (1&2), Elf and Miracle on 34th street are close runners up.

I also have a real soft spot for the not-so-great one like the Tim Allen Santa Claus movies, The Holiday, Deck The Halls etc

[foundmykey]

This Christmas, I love Loretta Devine, she's an amazing actress and totally makes this film for me.

[TeaMeBasil]

National lampoons Christmas vacation for no 1!

A Christmas Story - Dixie, is that the one with Ralphie, the Bebe gun and the leg lamp?!! Saw that years ago and it was great, never pops up on Christmas tv here tho (uk)

[Loyly]

I love any and every Christmas movie/TV show I can find. Utterly, unashamedly obsessed.

Favourite:
Double-bill DVD of Home Alone and Home Alone 2: Lost In New York.

My other much adored Christmas film is a made-for-TV movie called The Mistle-Tones. It's a sugary sweet Christmassy romance starring Tia Mowry. I just love it.

[Ladybirdturd]

I can't choose between white christmas, Elf or the family man for me.

My favourite tv movies are the Christmas shoes and mrs miracle.

Dc love the grinch, arthur christmas and muppets Christmas Carol. I will be introducing them to the polar express this year.

DH loves Jack Frost

[WhispersOfWickedness]

Miracle on 34th street, but also have a special place in my heart for Christmas with the Kranks because I make DH watch it every year and we both know that is exactly what our Christmases are going to be like in 15 years when the DC have left home

[iklboo]

Arthur Christmas

'Three pieces of sticky tape. THREE!!'

[Davros]

I heard there's going to be a follow up to Bad Santa, squee!
Also love:
The man who came to dinner (Bette Davies)
Holiday Inn
Miracle on 34th st (original)
The Snowman, Fatger Christmas etc
Everyone Says I Love You (Woody Allen)
Bridget Jones
Love Actually
Erm

[Sleepnowprettyplease]

It's so hard to choose! The snowman and the Snowdog and Elf are in very close competition at the top of my list though.

skips of to amazon to buy some new christmas dvds
