Childrens Xmas movies...your faves

[biglips]

as mine is Polar Express...

so love that movie.

I've just put A Nightmare before Christmas on for the DCs because the Littlewoods adverts have been annoying me, and they're sitting there transfixed atm. That's a huge improvement on the Home Alone films which they love and laugh like drains at.

ooo i just got polar express delivered today - was saving it for xmas eve but tempted to watchit now though gutted now i know its on tv normal grr

Elf - I watched it with my Year 11s today! :)

goldfrankincenseEt.al... (merryberry?)- I love The Box of Delights! It is fantastic (my 2 are too young for it yet... I am counting down the christmases
We have the music (Hely-Hutchinson's Carol Symphony) - always on when we're dressing the tree- sooooo Christmassy!

CaptainNancy - apologies for the lengthy name, I'm normally Goldberry, but added the frankincense and myrrh! I decided this year that dd (age 5) was old enough. We're watching it in episodes as I don't think she'd manage it in one go! I love all the old-fashioned slang. 'Well if that isn't the purple pim!' (whatever that means) We've got the carol symphony too.

No need for apologies! Must drive you mad when you need to log in though...

Home Alone 1 and 2. Home Alone 3&4 are rubbish.

Polar Express

Home Alone (kids have watched it at least once a day while at home convalesing this week)

National Lampoons Christmas Vacation

Love Actually

Home Alone -I cry every time the mum is reunited at the end. That little boy is my little boy to a T,have lost him countless times. He's good at inventions too

Saw Polar Express for the first time this weekend - Really didn't like it! Am I missing something? I usually love Christmas films, but I just found it a bit creepy! DS seems to have taken to it though so I've seen it 3 times since Friday .
