Hey, she wanted to know what your favorite Christmas movies are and since I love movies so much, I'm in. I know there are tons of Christmas movies but I could only think of these as my favorites.

7) The Ref 6) Miracle on 34th Street (original) 5) When Harry Met Sally (not really a Christmas movie but does have some Christmas and New Year's scenes and I like watching it at Christmas time) 4) Christmas Vacation 3) It's a Wonderful Life 2) A Charlie Brown Christmas (not a movie but I love and watch this every year) 1) A Christmas Story (this is a damn fine classic in my opinion)

So what are your favorite holiday flicks?

She's on the money, with the exception of Lampoon's Christmas Vacation and the Ref (which I never heard of).

The Bells of St. Mary's is right up there in my book!

Oh yeah, I overlooked Harry met Sally. A crappy movie any time of the year.

Bells of St. Marys, Miracle on 34th Street, Christmas Vacation and, of course, March of the Wooden Soldiers.

You beat me.

And how about, "An Affair to Remember"?

[KevinDavis]

I agree with 3 out 7.. Christmas Vacation, Charlies Brown Christmas Special, and A Christmas Story.

[DTaggart]

Don't forget "Bad Santa" - an instant classic.

[VRWCmember]

I almost added Better Off Dead to my list.

[GeekDejure]

"The Bells Of FreeRepublic" !!! ;-))

[KevinDavis]

One more item, the Rankin-Bass specials..

I used to love 'It's a Wonderful Life' a lot more, until I moved to Las Vegas and realized that 'Pottersville' was basically my adopted hometown on a much smaller scale.

Just what's George Bailey's problem? Can't people have a little fun once in a while? :-)

My favorite Christmas movie is The Muppets Christmas Carol (no snickering allowed).

On a more dramatic level, we usually watch "Three Days of the Condor" around this time each year (not a Christmas movie, but does take place around Christmas and it's hubby's favorite movie.)

Would I be some sort of weirdo if I were to recommend "Die Hard"?

[fritzz]

I sit down with my grandkids and put on Frosty the Snowman.

Also the highpoint of Pia Zadora's career.

"Scrooged" - The night the reindeer died! starring Lee Majors.
