[Film] Christmas Films

[Uncle Spielberg]

Elf has grown on me a bit mainly due to Zoey Dechanel

 

[WATFORD zero]

White Christmas
It's a Wonderful Life
A Christmas Carol (1951)
Trains, Planes, Automobiles
National Lampoons Xmas vacation
Elf (sorry)

Bit of a traditionalist

FFS why do people still put Die Hard down as a Christmas film. on this basis The Great Escape is a Thanksgiving Day film.

And to go with this silliness I'm going to vote for Merry Christmas Mr Lawrence, which unlike Die Hard at least has Christmas in the title.

Never tire of Planes, Trains and Automobiles, so many laughs, especially the motel scenes.

Last year I got my teen daughter into White Christmas and Holiday Inn.

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

Die Hard is a great film, always will be but because that had a xmas party does not make it a xmas film

 

[Stumpy Tim]

Another vote for Violent Night. Tremendous film. Otherwise It's a Wonderful Life, Elf, and Scrooged for me

I was a bit late to the party as far as A wonderful Life is concerned. I'm in my 60s and only probably saw it for the first time about 10 years ago but if it's on I'll watch (or record it). Nativity with Martin Freeman is good and The Flint Street Nativity.

 

[shingle]

A Christmas Carol (Scrooge) Musical 1970 with Albert Finney in the title role

 

[BevBHA]

Miracle on 34th street

 

[Chicken Run]

National Lampoons is a great film.

I like Polar Express, Muppets Christmas Carol, and Scrooged.

I can’t stand Elf because Will Ferrell makes me feel physically sick. Genuinely. I can’t even look at him. With his dense skin and pubey hair.

Ugh

Yep NLCV is a brilliant go to xmas film

 

[Chicken Run]

The greatest of course is Love Actually

 

[Rdodge30]

I always like to see White Christmas and Oliver the musical at Christmas. My favourite two.

One of our family traditions when we were still together was to watch Polar Express on Christmas Eve so I struggle with that one.

Favourite Christmas escape film- Christmas Town …. Absolutely delightful nonsense!

Just so they can sit back and laugh at the debate

End of thread.

Obviously Home Alone 1 and 2 come a close joint second after Love Actually, and then National Lampoon's xmas vacation.

 

[empire]

Polar express

 

[Madafwo]

Polar Express, Muppet Christmas Carol, Love Actually and Scrooged will all get a watch and obviously Die Hard gets watched as I wrap the wife's presents while smashing a tub of Quality Street. Might introduce the kids to Home Alone as well.

 

[Chicken Run]

Obviously Home Alone 1 and 2 come a close joint second after Love Actually, and then National Lampoon's xmas vacation.

Yep my top 4 also

 

[spongy]

One Alone 1
Home Alone 2
Polar Express
Santa Clause The Movie

Favourites being Home Alone 1 and Polar Express.

Can't stand Will Ferrell so never watched Elf.

I saw an advert for Violent Night a few weeks ago so it's on my "if there's absolutely nothing else I fancy on TV I shall give it a watch" at some point in the next few weeks but there's a lot of footie coming up to watch too.....
