I love “It’s a Wonderful Life”- a little sappy, but it reminds me that it is not about what you have or don’t have materially, but about WHO you have (relationships) in your life that really counts!
I just love the 1947 “Miracale on 34th Street” Natlaie Wood as the little girl, Susan. The Santa Clause looked real too. The movie has a nice message.
Merry Christmas!
Christmas Vacation– the tv version, ahem.
And Elf. Love that. Smiling’s my favorite!
Christmas Vacation.
Did you see him watching old movies in the attic with the turban, gloves, and fur shawl.
Come on.. that is classic comedy.
It never gets old!
It’s a wonderful life for me…Christmas vacation for my husband and boys!
I really can’t pick just one – so here’s the top 3
Its a Wonderful Life
The Santa Claus
Elf
Boy, I hope 506 is a lucky number. LOL My favorite Christmas movie ever is A Christmas Carol – the George C. Scott version – with Elf running a close second. Go figure. :-)
A Christmas Story is a great classic!
My favorite is A Charlie Brown Christmas.
The teachers voice cracks me up!

I live in a house full of boys, so the only movie we see this time of year is “The Polar Express”. And I do enjoy it, too.
I will go with A Wonderful Life…
I need the camera, my son dropped ours last week! :)
I love “A Christmas Story.”
You’ll shoot your eye out…
National Lampoons Christmas Vacation, I know not the ideal Christmas movie but it’s a tradition my husband plays every year whether the rest of us want to or not!! “Here Russ, work on this…”
“Seasons of the Heart” is my favorite Christmas movie. It was sold through Feature Films for Families back 10-12 years ago. I show it every year to my students at school. The setting is in the late 1800’s when settlers were claiming land across the U.S. It has a very touching ending, depicting the true meaning of Christmas.
A new camera would be so nice to take pictures with of my new grandson, Levi, who was born on Dec. 1!
Merry Christmas, Boomama!!
We have so many favorites that we watch throughout the year, not just at Christmas. But this year, Elf happens to be a favorite as I listen to my 6 year old quote the movie!
A Charlie Brown Christmas…I love watching it with our kids.
It’s a wonderful like has got to be my favorite Christmas movie ever!
Charlie Brown Christmas.
Christmas Story. I’m classy like that.
Miracle on 34th Street or It’s a WOnderful life. Cry every year!!!!
Only ONE Christmas movie? I can’t do it.
A Christmas Story
National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation
It’s a Wonderful Life (in black and white, as God intended)
I like Elf!!
That is so easy. I absolutely ADORE Will Ferrell in Elf. It is without a doubt the funniest Christmas movie and great for the entire family. :)
My favorite movie hands down
“Its a wonderful life”
Thank you.
I like Polar Express as my recent pick. But for a classic I like A Christmas Story.
Thanks!
Santa Claus, The Movie (At least I think that;s the name of it!–It’s the one where Dudley Moore plays the elf.) If that’s not the right title, am I disqualified??! :-)
It’s a toss up – White Christmas if I’m being sentimental… Christmas Vacation if I want to laugh about the craziness of the season.
My favorite movie of all time is Miracle on 34th Street (the newer is my all time fave but i do like them both!) and of course Miracle on 34th Street is a must see in our house every year.
Thanks for a great giveaway!
Elf is so funny!!
Elf. and It’s a Wonderful Life
A Christmas Carol!!
The Grinch (cartoon version)
Well, since it came out a few years ago, I would say “The Nativity”… Thanks BooMama and Staples…
miracle on 34th street
White Christmas. And the ORIGINAL Grinch.
White Christmas is my favorite hands down.
Hard to narrow down. . .
It is a three-way tie truthfully:
1)The Christmas Story
2)How The Grinch Stole Christmas
3)A Christmas Carol
We watch all three faithfully every Christmas season!
When wrapping presents or just in a Christmas mood, either The Bishop’s Wife or Holiday Inn. On Christmas Eve, It’s a Wonderful Life. I love most all of the old ones though :)
Merry Christmas!
The Muppets Christmas movie is my favorite!
Oh my! I am totally obsessed with A Christmas Story! I love it!
I’m up for just about any Christmas movie, but I think my favorite is Miracle on 34th Street. I’ve seen it so many times!
My favorite holiday movie is Nutcracker The Motion Picture. Set design and costumes are by Maurice Sendak and performance is by the Pacific Northwest Ballet, was made in 1986. The whole family LOVES it.
The Polar Express. It is a new favorite. I’d have to say that my OLD favorite would be It’s a Wonderful Life. Or Miracle on 34th Street. Clearly I am not too picky. Oh, Christmas, pass me a kleenex.
Miracle on 34th Street is definitely my favorite movie. Oh but then there’s Little Women. I’ll take both please. :)
It’s a Wonderful Life!
I actually LOVE Christmas Vacation with Chevy Chase!!! It makes me laugh. Hard. hehehe…
A Christmas Story!!
Can I choose The Family Man, even though it’s not a Christmas movie per se? I love that one! :)
gotta be a christmas story! classic! i watch it app. 5,497 times each holiday season!
My very favorite Christmas movie is “The Night They Saved Christmas”. I love, love, love that movie!!
Why, the Polar Express of course!
I love The Muppet Christmas Carol. Michael Caine plays the best Scrooge.
jubys1mom(at)yahoo(dot)com
I love…….The Grinch (Jim Carrey style)!!! We have to watch it every year…and we laugh as if it’s the very first time we’ve seen it.
Also…we quote it constantly….
Like if we’re heading to a party…
Someone will say….
“Let’s blow in & grab some popcorn shrimp and blow out!”
LOVE THAT MOVIE….

White Christmas with Bing Crosby
My Christmas favorite that we watch every year is ‘It’s a wonderful Life’ – so neat!
Merry Christmas!
Chrissie
Of course a Christmas story… and A Charlie Brown Christmas!!! Oh wait, and How the Grinch Stole Christmas! I could really use that camera. My old dinosaur is dying fast.
So hard to choose … but as far as more recent movies .. I love Jack Frost! When my kids were little, we watched the Christmas Story a million times though! “you’re gonna shoot your eye out!”
Elf!!
Miracle on 34th Street

I love Miracle on 34th Street – I’m partial to the original, but I like both of them.

I know this is SO not original, but I have to chime in with the “Charlie Brown Christmas” crowd. I mean, so simple, so sweet, and a GREAT presentation of the true reason for Christmas.
National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation. A hoot every year!!!!
Miracle on 34th Street! And It’s a Wonderful Life!
Just watched “The Lion, The Witch, & the Wardrobe” last night and it had Father Christmas in it. . . does that count? :)
Currently my favorite is Elf. As a child it was a toss up between Frosty and Rudolph!
Okay, technically not a Christmas movie, but I love When Harry met Sally…the end when he’s running through the city on New Year’s Eve…gets me every time.
It’s a Wonderful Life!!!! So good. My dad and I watch it every year :)
It’s Wonderful Life. (and I still cry every time the bell rings at the end of the movie)
Hands down, “A Christmas Story”.
“You’ll shoot your eye out, kid!”
Elf is one of my favorite Christmas movies!! I also like Frosty, Rudolph, and The Grinch That Stole Christmas.
A Christmas Story for sure for me. My husband loves It’s a Wonderful Life. I just bought both collector’s edition DVD sets on Amazon!
My favorite movie is “White Christmas”.
lorijdaniels@embarqmail.com
I love the Grinch and Charlie Brown cartoon!
1. It’s a Wonderful Life.
2. Elf.
‘Nuff said.
My favorite is……..Wily Wonka and the Chocolate factory (original)
White Christmas!
Followed by the original Miracle on 34th St.
Followed by Polar Express.
The End. :)
My favorite Christmas movie is National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation. Sorry, I couldn’t help myself!
Lampoons Christmas Vacation…I laugh every time. Oh, and Elf!
How about “The Fourth Wise Man” It’s a very thought provoking movie.
A Christmas story–seen it a billion and one times at least and still laugh.
I love them all… My favorite this year is The Christmas Card, but there are about 92 others running a hotly contested second :o)
Frosty the Snowman
