Well, I already mentioned (in another thread) that "A Christmas Story," is a classic that I always watch.
One that I consider a Xmas-time movie is "Little Women." I just love that movie and if I'm switching channels and see that its playing- I watch it.

I love Christmas movies! A newer fave of mine is Love Always. I can watch that again and again and never tire of it. So romantic!
Christmas Vacation and a Christmas Story are always favorites too. Love Adam Sandler's 8 Crazy Nights too!

My brother and I have a tradition every year where we get together and watch A Christmas Story. I laugh so hard every time, especially the pink bunny suit. "Oh, Ralphie!"

Yeah, that movie is a classic. It's one of those rare movies that strikes a chord in all of us to some degree. Odd little side note to A Christmas Story, the guy who directed it, Bob Clark, also directed the decidedly non-family flicks Porky's and the 1974 slasher flick Black Christmas, which almost scene-by-scene influenced John Carpenter to make Halloween in 1978. Clark was killed last year in an automobile accident. Now that I've about completely destroyed the holiday spirit I had originally set out to foster...  |

Very interesting, but with a sad ending. I love trivia stuff like that.

I just started watching this show...hilarious! another bit of nerdy trivia, and this one fits in with the holidays. the guy who plays Leonard Hofstadter in The Big Bang Theory, Johnny Galecki, also portrayed Rusty Griswold in Christmas Vacation. |
