The Ultimate Christmas Movie?

[Tellyn]

Guys, what do you think is the best Christmas movie ever made? Which film do you like to put the Christmas tree up to, to fill you up with that warm, glowy Christmassy feeling?

I have to say The Muppets Christmas Carol is the best Christmas film ever. Michael Caine + Muppets = Awesome. Gremlins and The Santa Clause come in with a close second/third.

[Ellmeister]

That rudolph movie like program on BBC1 every christmas wins in my books, I love that program so much :D

[Strider]

Muppets Christmas Carol ftw.

[The Bard]

There is no better Christmas movie for me and my mates than Die Hard.

The ultimate christmas film.

[Coolness Bears]

Jingle all the way :grin: :heh:

Arnold Swarchenegger is great in that movie! :)

*sings* oh the weather outside is frightful...*

:) bardy's got a point, die hards very christmassy, he wants to be with his wife for christmas, and no one can stop him from that

JINGLE ALL THE WAY IS THE BEST XMAS FILM EVER! :D

I love it.

Arnie rocks :yay:
Everything about it rocks!

[Paj!]

Hmm..I dunno. I've never been an Xmas movie kinda person. Probably Nightmare Before Chrsitmas..but I like that anyway.

[chairdriver]

I *love* Miracle on 34th Street.

[Jordan]

Yes.
JINGLE.

Wouldn't that be a th, not st?

I'd say Home Alone would be the movie to get you in the spirit. Nothing like watching a fat guy burn his hand on a door knob.

[AshMat]

Home alones 1 & 2 are just the best.
I love The Grinch too.

I am not a fan of Miracle on 34th though, that fucking girl pisses me off in every movie she's in.

It just really confused me seeing st after a 4.

Although it's not a christmasy film, if I remember right, Flight of the Navigator would be a nice film to watch at Christmas.

[welsh_gamer]

The Great Escape. Enough said'

The Grinch, watch it every year :bowdown:


And Mara Wilson is just too cute to be true, shes a bit on the ugly side now though. Poor girl.

[Oxigen_Waste]

As the great Paj said... Nightmare Before Christmas.

The Great Escape. Enough said'

Ah-ah. :D LOL
Great movie, though.

[martinist]

Home Alone and Jingle all the way.

I got a massive soft spot for The Muppets Christmas Carol

It's a great version of the classic tale and always provides a great christmasy feeling at the end and throughout

I agree.

Use to be on every Christmas Eve, last two years they've not shown it. Very disappointing.

I've got a massive hard spot for National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation.

"Surprised Clark?"

"Eddie, I couldn't be more surprised if I woke up tomorrow morning with my head sown to the carpet."

[EEVILMURRAY]

Let's not forget The Santa Claus Movie, with the main man Patch.

[Dan Dare]

the one where everyone dies in a plane crash by burning horribly in liquid fuel as it floods the plane, strewn across the cold barren wastes of remote, unmapped Siberia.

[weeyellowbloke]

I'm surprised no-one has mentioned It's a Wonderful Life yet. *Bell Rings* "Attaboy Clarence".... *sniff* it gets me everytime. Yep, definately It's a Wonderful Life followed by Die Hard as an antidote to a sentimental overload.

[tapedeck]

I adore the film about a boy who just wants a pop gun all chrimbo and he battles bullies etc and it's all about growing up. it's like the Wonder Years and Eerie Indiana but Christmassy. Shame I can NEVER remember what it is called :( But yeah, that wins!!

ANY HELP?!

But it also has to be The Snowman. When he burns his snowballs on the motorbike, you know it's awesome.

Other than that...Wallace and gromit are good chrimbo oddities.

[My Buttons are Magic!]

home alone :D always

[mcj metroid]

There is no better Christmas movie for me and my mates than Die Hard.

The ultimate christmas film.

i was going to say national lampoons christmas vacation but this wins.


Christmas films generally arenn't great. Some are so bad they are good. Jingle all the way for ya.

[Happenstance]

Im amazed nobody has mentioned Santa Claus Conquers The Martians yet!

But seriously id probably go for either Home Alone or The Santa Clause.

It used to be Santa Claus with Dudley Moore when I was younger but I tried watching it last year and just got bored and turned over.

I came in to suggest that very movie! So shite it's awesome!

[Jimbob]

Jingle All the Way, Home Alone, Die Hard and The Santa Clause are all great Christmas movies to watch over the holidays, and lets not forget The Great Escape.

I'm glad someone mentioned it. It's just so timeless. It's a film you truly can watch every year and still feel affected.

[EEVILMURRAY]

I'll have to watch it and see what the fuss is about then ¬_¬

[Dog-amoto]

It's a Wonderful Life
Scrooge (the musical version starring Albert Finney)
National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation
Nightmare Before Christmas
Home Alone
Scrooged

All films I try to watch on Christmas Eve - I never work on this day, everything's done. Time to relax. It's just beer, snacks and DVDs all day baby!! My favourite day of the year

And I know this film is about Thanksgiving, but Planes, Trains and Automobiles - a man trying to get home to his family for the holidays is a pretty fitting choice too.

I moust foind the Turbo Mon!

[Kurtle Squad]

Father Christmas

Better than The Snowman

[Shorty]

Scrooge and Jingle All the Way.
