I love Christmas films

[Flyingfruit]

Arthur Christmas and the holiday! I also think of Mary poppins as a holiday film and watch every year without fail!

[WantAnOrange]

We watched Arthur Christmas the other day and loved it!

[GoldenHandshake]

I have too many favourites to choose just one, they are:

Muppet Christmas Carol
Miracle on 34th Street
Home Alone
The BFG (Not strictly Christmas but was always shown at Christmas when I was a kid and I now associate it with Christmas)
Frosty the snowman
Elf
The Snowman

[NervousAt20]

Why has no one said the grinch???

I love that green guy

[ripsishere]

I am a dissenting voice then. I saw rise of the guardians at the weekend. I thought it was not very good.
11.6 DD disagrees though.

[gazzalw]

We went to see Rise of the Guardians and that was a really lovely Christmas film...

[bondigidum]

Elf, Polar express and National Lampoons. The latter being the obvious daddy of all Christmas movies.

[skyebluesapphire]

Definitely National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation - I laughed so much the first time that I saw that film, it is hilarious.

Also, Home Alone, The Snowman

[CointreauVersial]

Polar Express.

[Viviennemary]

Miracle on 34th Street for me too. Second version. The first version was on this afternoon. I recorded it. I love Mary Poppins too.

What's Arthur Christmas about was thinking about this for Christmas Eve ?

[bdaonion]

Another vote for A Christmas Story. Once we've watched it Christmas has officially arrived.

[70isaLimitNotaTarget]

A Christmas Carol (the animated Jim Carey one) We saw it 2 years ago at Kids AM (£1.50 a ticket).

So glad I didn't take them to the 3D. My DD shrieked when the door knocker 'spoke'

[70isaLimitNotaTarget]

My DC love
Elf
Home Alone
Nativity
Polar Express
Arthur Christmas


We saw Nativity 2 today at the cinema. I won't spoil it but you know what is going to happen
It is funny though.


My DC want to see the Disney Pixar one that's got Jack Frost/Sandman/ToothFairy and Easter Bunny (Guardians something)

[Beaverfeaver]

Bad Santa
Elf
The snowman
Love actually

[maillotjaune]

anything my 3 yo has been in the room while Elf was on, didn't actually watch much but I think it's harmless. The other 2 (8&9) LOVE it.

Had forgotten National Lampoon - it's nearly time to start spotting Griswald houses round here - sadly lights getting less whacky as electricity prices go up.

[Bertrude]

I'm torn between Scrooged, One Magic Christmas and The Holiday (which I only discovered last year)

[LegArmpits]

A Christmas Story. You'll shoot your eye out, kid!

[cheeseandmushroomghostie]

And elf!

[cheeseandmushroomghostie]

Home alone.

[Anythingforabitofpeace]

Elf is the funniest without a doubt. Love it. Do you reckon my 3.9yo DS Is too young for elf?

Also love The Santa Clause 1/2/3.
