Here’s what FindAnyFilm has to say:

“With so much out there to choose from these days, it can be tough to decide what to cuddle-up and download on a cold December night when the kids are finally in bed, or what DVD to add to the big-shop for your next family film night. The latest research shows that personal recommendations are the reason 83% of people give for picking their next film or TV show to buy or rent, which is why Mumsnet is the perfect place to help you choose what to watch from now until Christmas!”

Elf! Every time!

Home Alone plus The Wizard of Oz & Sound of Music

DD has forced me to watch Nativity 1, 2 and 3 today.

We’ve never seen Elf so downloaded that one.

Compulsory Christmas watching is

Christmas with The Kranks
National Lampoons Christmas Vacation
Home Alone

It’s A Wonderful Life (our kids have to watch it ever year: they’re adults now, they have free choice: our grandson is 17 months and has already seen (been made by his mum) it once )
Animated Christmas Carol. Don’t like Jim Carey generally but it’s a great film.
Muppets Christmas Carol. Michael Caine is fab. Rizzo the Rat even better.
Home Alone, obviously
Die Hard, obviously
And Jingle All the Way: it’s utter shite but one scene made the children howl with laughter until they cried and snotted and I’ll always be grateful to Arnie for that memory.

(Lastly and randomly, TV Dracula from a couple of years ago, if that counts. I’m still in awe of Sister Agatha)

It's got to be The Snowman. Perfect mix of nostalgia, funny, and sad. And it's not very long, so great for short attention spans! Also, It's A Wonderful Life. And not especially Christmasy, but it reminds me of Christmas, Mary Poppins. Love the songs in it!

The Grinch is our go to Christmas family movie. I'm also looking forward to West Side Story at the cinema. We usually try and go on NYE.

We all have different favourites in our house - so have to watch lots of Christmas movies... Hurrah!
My DH would always choose the Home Alones (still not left schoolboy humour) the kids would watch the Nativity films on loop and my personal favourite is Elf.

Muppets Christmas Carol is my all time favourite Christmas movie! I watch it on loop this time of year.

Dune, Spider-Man and Bond at the cinema
Arthur Christmas on TV as ever

Jingle Jangle absolutely loved watching it last year it's a new family favourite 😊 🎄

Home Alone
The holiday
Muppets Christmas Carol

Not seen Deck the Halls yet and that's the next one to watch as it looks like it is right up my DS's street!

Christmas movies I will be watching are It's a Wonderful Life and Elf.

The Christmas Chronicles is a family favourite, and this year we will also go to the cinema to watch the new Spiderman film.

King Richard for us!

It has to be Elf. Closely followed by Nativity. My children are older now but will always come and watch Elf with me.

The Holiday, Home Alone and A Street Cat Named Bob

I'm looking forward to rewatching Jingle Jangle, DS and DH love Home Alone, and DD is already rewatching Christmas Chronicles daily!

It's A Wonderful Life

Every year. A family favourite.

We really want to watch a boy called Christmas. We are reading it first and then planning a movie night on the big screen!

Another one here for Home Alone. We watch it every Christmas without fail and it never gets old.

Last Christmas- went to see it as a happy accident when my mum took kids to see Star Wars in the screen next door. Came out claiming it was my new favourite (festive) film

Also want to see The Boy who would be King

Polar Express. I've never seen it and nor has my 5 year old ❤️

Love Actually, Muppets Christmas Carol, Arthur Christmas, Home Alone!
Also looking forward to watching the new Bond film, the Last Duel and Last Night in Soho

Elf, stardust and the holiday! Perfect Christmas viewings!
