My favorite Christmas movie is definitely White Christmas. Love it!
My favorite Christmas movie is A Christmas Story. “You’ll shoot your eye out!”
I love the Tim Allen Santa Claus Movies…and anything Lifetime and anything Hallmark–they play good mushy Christmas movies!
White Christmas.
It has to be ELF I just saw it the other day and I laughed so hard!
The Homecoming. Love it. Love it. Love it!
The Grinch!
By far, fav movie is a Christmas Story. We watch it continuously on Christmas eve while we do presents, we have Christmas Story ornaments, and I am determined to have my very own leg lamp in our window for next year’s decorations, lol.
I so enjoy the cartoon version of Dr. Seuss’s ‘The Grinch Who Stole Christmas.’ It fills me with childish joy when the Grinch’s heart grows three sizes that day!
“Elf” has been my favorite since it’s release. It makes me smile. : )
Christmas Story.
I had to fight so hard not to pick up a reproduction of the leg lamp I found in an FYE the other day. If it had been bigger and uglier, I’d have been forced to do it.
White Christmas! I love me some Bing Crosby.
Miracle on 34th Street.
Home Alone
Hmmm… probably Scrooge…
How the Grinch Stole Christmas! :) (the original one)
It’s a Wonderful Life. I have to watch it every year when I wrap presents. Love it!!!
Absolutely Rudolph… with the Charlie in the box!
Love Actually.
It’s not strictly a “Christmas movie” but it happens during Christmas. I need to watch it soon.
The Santa Clause.
My sister and I can’t help ourselves. We start watching it around September and watch clean through January. It’s just so good.
White Christmas
White Christmas. Bing Crosby rocks!
Charlie Brown Christmas
I am a big cheese, I admit it, but I loved The Preacher’s Wife.
I assure you, Denzel Washington has nothing whatever to do with that.
It’s a Wonderful Life is my favorite Christmas movie.Love the camera! monk5 (at) charter (dot) net
Charlie Brown Christmas! I love when Linus says, “Lights please” and proceeds to tell the Luke 2 account of the birth of Jesus. I’m amazed and thankful that this continues to get airplay on major networks each year so the whole world hears the truth from God’s Word! Merry Christmas everyone!
My favorite is “White Christmas”, my husband’s is “A Christmas Story”(You’ll shoot your eye out!) , aren’t we a perfect match ?! :)
My favorite Christmas movie this year was The Polar Express. We let our kids watch it and my son was just fixated on every single second of the movie. Very sweet memories.
My very favorite is Charlie Brown.
Thanks for all the fun giveaways.

A Christmas Story!
SO many good ones to choose from….

Elf!
My favorite Christmas movie… hmmm… a toss up between “A Christmas Story,” “White Christmas,” and “Holiday Inn”.
Great giveaway… thanks for hosting!
I really like the old Christmas movies, like Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer and Frosty the Snowman!! MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
A Christmas Story, of course! We watch it every year!
My favorite it the Grinch that stole Christmas with Jim Carrey. :)
I enjoy Christmas in Connecticut and It’s a Wonderful Life.
oo oooo pick me!!
i accidentally deleted the part that said my favorite christmas movie is Holiday Inn!
I really had to ponder this,. but it always goes back to what I loved as a kid and that naturally is the good old black and white movies. A Christmas Carol, the B&W version, circa 1938, always scared the you know what out of me when the ghosts came on..lol..but I love it! Thanks for entering me!
Blessings!
Penny
It’s a Wonderful Life!!
Elf is my favorite Christmas movie. It’s the first year my son has been old enough to watch, and he says “uh-oh” a lot throughout! :) Cracks me up even more than the movie!
Thanks for the great giveaway! I could use a new camera as my son ripped the sliding cover off of my current one.
If I win, this camera will be regifted to my son, Mikey!
Our favorite movie is A Christmas Story, of course!
A Christmas Story.
You’ll shoot your eye out, kid. Ho, ho, ho.
White Christmas!
Sisters, sisters…
Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer
Elf
The Holiday
“The Best Christmas Pageant Ever.” Book AND the movie are classics and crack me up every time.
My favorite Christmas “movie” of all is the original Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer with the Burl Ives snowman and all. It reminds me of when I was a little girl, and I love now that my little boys love this movie too!
Since we just watched The Santa Claus 2 with Tim Allen last night I will pick that as my favorite. They are just good clean fun for the whole family.
Ohh, this is an easy one, White Christmas! I love the song, Sisters Sisters…
“Love Actually” is my all-time favorite Christmas movie!
Elf is a family favorite!
Fav Movie: Christmas Vacation.
Cool giveaway.
Sheila
My favorite is The Santa Clause.
Elf!! It is just too funny!
Almost 1000 comments. Do I stand a chance?!! I love How the Grinch Stole Christmas with Jim Carrey.
This year… The CHRISTMAS CARD from the Hallmark channel. Love that movie.
I love the old cartoon movies, like Frosty and Frosty Returns, I love watching them with my kids.
I love the Griswold’s from National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation and A Christmas Story!
Elf is definitely my favorite!
Well, my favorite Christmas movie is actually Jesus of Nazareth. It’s VERY long, so I like to watch the first part with the birth of Christ at Christmas, and the last part with the crucifixion and resurrection at Easter. Just my own little holiday tradition that I love. :-)
Mine is Sound of Music. Does that count as a Christmas movie? I think of it as a Christmas movie cause it’s usually played on tv around Christmas time…
Christmas in Connecticut with Barbara Stanwyck and Dennis Morgan. Love it! It is so romantic and cute!
Hands down – National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation. “‘Tis the season to be merry!” I love that movie!
I love Elf! I think I love watching my boys watch it more than the movie itself…lol They laugh hysterically although they have seen it a million times..lol
Winnie the Pooh and Christmas, Too. It has my FAVORITE Eeyore line of all times!
Favorite Chirstmas Movie – I unfortunately can not name just one, so I lourve, love, luv, Miracle on 34th St., White Christmas, Holiday Inn, & Charlie Brown Christmas. I love when Linus tells the Christmas story, and that they still show it on Network TV! It’s a great thing. I would love that camera to take on my mission trip in June to Jamaican mountains. Fabulous! Just like the Boo Mama blog!
A Christmas Story is my favorite holiday movie by far.
Love them all – a hard choice…..”It’s a wonderful Life” oh and “nativity” oh an “Christmas at the Kranks” oh and all of them!
I would regift this camera to Valerie Hays- a 37 year old friend of ours who has 2 small children and just managed to finish law school and start her own practice. Her camera is on the fritz, and with all of their family living out of town, it makes it hard to stay in touch!
Favorite Christmas movie- Love Actually (but would really like to omit the naked people scene so I wouldn’t feel weird watching it with the fam)
Charlie Brown Christmas!!!!! Love it!!!
I have to say two movies.
For me and hubby: Family Man (“I choose us.”)
For the family: Home Alone (“I made my family disappear!”)
I am reminded that I need to rent Love Actually and watch it again with hubby this time– though I agree about the naked people– the movie would have been just as good without them and then I would feel better about watching it.
All of this is waaaay more information than you asked for, I realize.
Oh, what perfect timing! Our digital camera is on the fritz and I’m afraid is dying a slow death. I so hope that I win!
Favorite Christmas movie with the family: Charlie Brown Christmas
Favorite Chrismtas movie with the husband:
Christmas Vacation
Thanks for the contest!
So chances are up to 1/1000
my favorite christmas movie is It’s a wonderful life! LOVE IT! I also think Home Alone is funny and for some reason always gets me in the Christmas mood!
My favorite will be “It’s a wonderful Life!” And my kids love “Elf” Thanks!!!
Family Man…
Thanks for the opportunity to win the camera.
Merry Christmas!
The Polar Express! Wait – The Charlie Brown Christmas Special.
They’re all great. :-)
Love Elf – and it wouldn’t be Christmas without Rudolph!
Thanks!
My favorite Christmas movie is “National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation” as crude, and silly as it is. It’s a tradition that me and my hubby have to watch it at least once every Christmas and laugh till we almost pee our pants. We also love Elf too!

The current favorite Christmas movie in our household is “The Polar Express.” Thanks for the giveaway!
I have to go with Elf. Not just because I think it’s hilarious, but, because I LOVE to hear my children laugh until they cry during the ENTIRE movie……always makes my day!
A Christmas Story – hands down, oh my I can’t believe I can still laugh at the boy all wrapped up laying on the ground “Ralphie, Ralphie, wait!”
Hey, I absolutely love, love, love a Christmas Story. I know it’s a horrible thing to love, but when Ralphie finally beats the crap out of the bully and then his momma doesn’t rat him out to his dad. Man that’s classic.
Um…Holiday in Handcuffs? Mario Lopez is so cute. I’ve a confession about holiday movies over at my site…
I’m loving “Elf” this year. I don’t know why I think it’s funnier than ever before.
I love White Christmas.
Any of the classic Christmas movies really, but I can’t get over the dancing in White Christmas. Thank you for the giveaway. So fun!
I love A Christmas Story!!!
i just finished wathcing ELF i laugh so hard every time
and now time for some goodness a charlie brown christmas to tug at the heartstrings!
Of course I love classics like the Charlie Brown Christmas. But honestly, nothing puts me more in the Christmas spirit than those cheesy movies you see on Lifetime or the Hallmark channel. I think my favorite is A Boyfriend for Christmas. It’s so far past unrealistic, but I love it.
The Santa Clause with Tim Allen is my favorite Christmas movie.
Christmas Story with the Red Rider beebee gun!
It’s a Wonderful Life is the best Christmas movie ever, hands down! blessings, marlene
We love the Polar Express!!
Elf!
I LOVE the Best Christmas Pageant Ever! :)
Definitely WHITE CHRISTMAS. But HOLIDAY INN is a close second. :D
Oh and ….
PLEASE PICK ME!!! PLEASE PICK ME!!! PLEASE PICK ME!!!
My Mommy’s digital camera stopped working like a week before she flew down here for Thanksgiving. Her & my Pops live on a pretty tight budget because my Mommy can no longer work so buying a new on is out of the question. My brother & I are going to save up and buy her one but it won’t be until her birthday (September) or next Christmas. If I win, she won’t have to wait. :D
Thanks so much for doing this.
Christmas Vacation is my favorite Christmas movie. Nothing funnier :).
I’m not sure if it counts as a “real” Christmas Movie but I LOVE the original Home Alone.
The best part is when the tarantula crawls on Harrys face and he screams. Hillarious.
A Charlie Brown Christmas is a CLASSIC though!
Elf!!!!!
I love “A Child’s Christmas in Whales”! An oldie, but a goodie!!
A man on BooMama! I’m feeling like I could be a little outnumbered here. I confess that I didn’t read every single one of the 993 comments, but of the ones I did read (many, many, many) I didn’t see another fella. Even in cyber-world I’m feeling real fear! How is that even possible? But I’ll brave anything for the cool camera. I’ve read many of your posts and among other great things, you are funny! – Tim Layton
YIKES…almost forgot the movie… National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation, circa. 1989…my wife and I’s very first movie together!
My first post! I watched “The Christmas Shoes” this year and I loved it!
