What Christmas DVD will you be watching on Christmas Eve?

[AVoidkaTheKillerZombies]

Last year we watched Santa Buddies which DD loved but DS thought was 'rubbish'.

What are other people watching this year?

Our family favourites are Home Alone, National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation, Elf, The Santa Clause and The Snowman.

Muppets' Christmas Carol! Providing I'm not in labour. Then again that might help.

Muppet Christmas Carol. It is the best film EVER.

Elf, the Santa clause (all of them), Christmas with the kranks, Fred Claus

I fancy nativity too!

Whats the one with Dudley Moore in it? We used to watch that every year when I was little.

We have at least of week of Christmas DVDs and films in our house !

Earlier this year I bought 'Nativity' which is supposed to be very good.

I LOVE The Polar Express.

Magical.

The Santa Clause, definitely.
I don't think we've got any others....

Maybe someone will buy us one for the PFB.

Won't wait until Christmas Eve but my favourite is The Polar Express...love it!

Ds1 is 9 and questioning the concept of FC a bit so feel it is almost time to stick that film on.....it even has me believing for the briefest of moments

Every year when I watch it, I always make a mental note to myself to find a bell with a tinkle.

Always forget, till I watch it again.

And the Snowman
How could I forget that one

The original How the Grinch Stole Xmas cartoon version with Boris Karlof's booming voice and REAL Grinchi-ness, none of that Jim Carrey soapy version...

The Santa Clause - and then It's a Wonderful life when DC in bed, lovely!

Nativity IS brilliant, its definately made its way onto my annual festive film list.

Oh that's good to know, Jam.

I have been hiding it since August so that the DCs don't want to watch it till December !

We need to get some new ones, we have all the Home Alones and all the 'classics', the Snowman FC, Muppets etc etc, even Lassie (has a christmas ending) but finding new ones is hard.

Having said that, Channel 5 are usually quite good at putting a Christmassy film on in the run up to the main event. My DCs and I have spent many an afternoon watching slushy, emotional rubbish !

Whatever's on TV/ been sky plussed lol [tight emoticon]

If you ever find a bell with that wonderful tinkling sound MrsDB do let me know

My other favourite is Muppet Christmas Carol, that's a great film too.

Every year my MIL/SIL come round for tea (cheeseboard/snacks/cakes) and we watch "It's a Wonderful Life".

Every year, everyone cries.

Frank Capra's It's a Wonderful Life

(Yes I am that schmaltzy - and I always read A Christmas carol too.)

xp with LaurieFairyCake

you have excellent taste!

Polar Express!

See, my DD loves Polar Express, but I just find it a bit odd.

Polar Express here too. Plus It's a Wonderful Life after DS has gone to bed.

Elf with the dc's and later on when it's just me & Dh - National lampoons Christmas Vacation

miracle on 34th street.

National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation, especially if someone has not seen it. It works because it contains so much tension and expectation. One big, extended family Christmas, SIL said, "but WE are the Griswolds" Everyone fell about laughing but some were a bit...
