It's a Wonderful Life isn't even really about Christmas, it's just about some dumb guy IIRC.

Did you know when it first came out it was low budget and no one knew about it? It didn't get hott till years later? Kinda like the movie waiting

That's a great comparison.

Stevesie is so confused about stuff like Tool and Jimmy Stewart. Just can't wait to find out what the future holds in terms of crazy things that stevesie really doesn't like

Guys, Love Actually is really really great. Give it another chance and definitely don't stop to watch some Batman crap 3/4ths of the way through.

Every year I watch It's a Wonderful Life, and every year I shed a couple of tears when he gets the telegram from Sam Wainwright at the end of the film.

It's Die Hard you bunch of bozos.

I picked that in under one second, that's how easy of a choice it was.

Interesting omission of Christmas Vacation (the clear winner)

Have you seen TDKR? I will gladly watch that crap over any Christmas movie ('cept the polar express of course)

Christmas Vacation needs to take over Christmas Story on TBS for the 24 hour marathon

I must be the only one who voted based on how terrible the acting was.

TheHamburglar · « **Reply #136 on:** December 04, 2013, 12:21:43 AM »

Home Alone.

Sidenote: young Hamburg had to do the put hands on face and scream thing for random strangers about 1,000 because he looked very much like Kevin.

michigancat · « **Reply #137 on:** December 04, 2013, 12:37:02 AM »

Home Alone is being chosen for sentimental reasons. They are all pretty awful people and Christmas really has nothing to do with the movie.

Granted I put it 4th but I may have to replace it with White Christmas, if only for the music box version of "White Christmas" to kick things off. DAMN, BING.

nicname · « **Reply #138 on:** December 04, 2013, 01:04:43 AM »

I agree with Michigancat on Christmas Vaca and Home Alone for the most part, but I still think Home Alone is number two.

Christmas Vacation is number one and it isn't close. Cousin Eddie alone nearly puts it at the top. I like the subtle goofiness of the late 80s humor in the movie and I find something else that is funny every time I watch it. I love the difference in Clark's interaction with his Dad and with his father-in-law.

Home Alone is number two for me, a great mix of nostalgia and childhood humor. I don't really find it that funny any more, but it's sweet. I probably like the scenes with the old man, and in the second one the old lady the most as an adult.

Elf is funnier than people give it credit for. I laugh a lot when I watch that one.

You are correct, Bing/White Christmas music is excellent. Pretty much everything about WC is great except for that weird Choreography song. JMHO.

And who wouldn't like a movie that featured George Clooney's aunt?

Christmas Vacation has a KSU Football fan acting in it.
