Love actually
The holiday
The Santa clause
Christmas with the kranks

My new favourite is Get Santa!! It's a relatively new one with a fantastic British cast. Jim Broadbent makes an amazing Santa.

Die Hard 2, Bad Santa, In Bruges, and The Wizard of Oz. But really, there is only one true Christmas film...

Love seeing how many times Muppet Christmas Carol is on here- my DS8 has ASD and is OBSESSED with all things Muppets, he discovered Muppet CC in August and we have watched it 3-4 times a week, every week, since then, and i can still enjoy it!

Elf
Get Santa ( I don't know how this isn't more popular! It's fabulous!!
Home Alone

TulipsInbloom1 · 14/11/2018 21:33

Home Alone. The classic.
Christmas with the Kranks. The cheesefest.
Love Actually. The rom com.

phlebasconsidered · 14/11/2018 21:38

Oh my GOD!
Has nobody seen Uncle Buck? It is the best film EVER for Xmas.

In my house it's Uncle Buck, Gremlins, Scrooged.
We like our Xmas films with a bit of dark.

VerbeenaBeeks · 14/11/2018 21:45

I love Uncle Buck! That's not a Christmas film though, it's a watch whatever month of the year it is film! Smile
