ReplyDeleteI love, love, love A Muppet's Christmas Carol!!
ReplyDeleteFavorite holiday movie is A Christmas Story, a must-watch every year. I get chills every time I drive past the Terminal tower and see the Higbee's sign.
ReplyDeleteDuh, Elf!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite was always Frosty the Snowman, though I haven't seen it in years...
ReplyDeleteMiracle on 34th street, the original. My family watches it every Christmas Eve.
ReplyDeleteum, it's a wonderful life. cmon now folks.
ReplyDeletebut being from CLE, i feel like I should say A Christmas Story. btw- did you know that there was a sequel?
National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation - I've watched it a million times and it STILL cracks me up!
ReplyDeleteIts a wonderful life. a good natured-story about someone refusing to sell out.

3a. Die Hard
3b. Die Hard 2
Elf. Duh, freakin duh..
ReplyDeleteI know him, I know him.
home alone and white christmas - both traditions in my family.
ReplyDeleteElf is pretty awesome--combines hilarity of Will Ferrel with good ol' holiday spirit. Plus I love the duet of "Baby It's Cold Outside" they sing.
ReplyDeleteChristmas Story. No doubt, hands down. It shoots the eye out of all its competition.
ReplyDeleteNew age its elf, but if we're going classic here...I'm gonna christmas story. What else can you watch for 8 hours straight?
ReplyDeleteHands down - The Grinch Who Stole Christmas. The original, not the Jim Carrey one... Obviously.
ReplyDeleteOK... Charlie Brown Christmas is also definitely in the running.
National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation....cousin Eddie rules!
ReplyDeleteMy fiance introduced me to Planes, Trains and Automobiles so now that's our new tradition to watch that every Christmas!
ReplyDeletePlease don't include me to win because I will be at a work Christmas party. I did however want to chime in on my favorite movie during the holiday season! National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation!!! That movie serious is legendary!!!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite is Charlie Brown Christmas... totally a classic - I actually got a Charlie Brown Christmas tree at Walgreens last year :)
ReplyDeleteHome Alone & Elf are my favorite Christmas movies :)
ReplyDeleteBad Santa!
ReplyDeleteA Christmas Story...how can you live in Cleveland and not love that one!?
ReplyDeleteI'd go with Love Actually or The Family Stone
ReplyDeleteA Christmas Story is one of my favorites. I loved that movie as a kid and I was tickled to find out the house was here in Cleveland. I just visited it last Saturday and than stopped for lunch at Lucky's.
ReplyDeleteNational Lampoon's Christmas Vacation is by far my favorite! I love Uncle Eddie!!!

It's A Wonderful Life!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the contest!
"Home Alone" is obviously, far & away, my favorite holiday movie. "Elf" trails in second.
ReplyDeleteHave to go with Christmas Vacation.
ReplyDeleteUmm, favorite movie is Elf, of COURSE! Best.movie.ever.
ReplyDeleteEver since it's came out on DVD, viewing Elf has become my family's Christmas tradition. Best Christmas film ever!
ReplyDeleteIt's tough to pick a favorite Christmas movie. It's a toss-up between White Christmas with Bing Crosby and the Cleveland classic Christmas Story.
ReplyDeleteElf! (But I also enjoy Home Alone.)
ReplyDeleteDefinetely Charlie Brown Christmas!
ReplyDeleteThe Holiday :)
ReplyDeleteHome Alone...it is amazing and reminds me of being a kid :)
ReplyDeleteChristmas Vacation! It's a family tradition in my home to watch this cheesy, yet relatable holiday flick. Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteCall me crazy, but I love Reindeer Games with Ben Affleck.. love the ending to that movie. cheesy otherwise, but
ReplyDeleteMy fav holiday movie is Bad Santa. It's a holiday tradition to watch it, guess we'll have to switch the movie when our toddler gets a little older!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Will... Christmas isn't complete without Love Actually.
ReplyDeleteHoliday Inn with Fred Astaire and Bing Crosby. It's everything you want White Christmas to be without having to wait for the last 20 minutes of film!
ReplyDeleteMy favorites include Love Actually and Elf. While I love Christmas Vacation, I can only watch it so many times before I go crazy! They play it nonstop during the month of December!
ReplyDeleteMy favorites are A Christmas Story, The Family, Stone and Love Actually.
ReplyDeletePathetic as it is... I love the old school Rudolph movie with the abominable snowman and stuff :) Frosty is good too!
ReplyDeleteHome Alone 1 and 2 easily take the cake. I can't listen to the Christmas music on 106.5 without coming across 10 songs that remind me of Kevin, Buzz's Girlfriend (woof!) and The Wet Bandits
ReplyDeleteCartoons: The Grinch and Charlie Brown
ReplyDeleteReal People: Christmas Vacation and Elf
Hard to pick just one--I have to go with It's a Wonderful Life though. Memories of watching that one every year with my dad, who always kept Christmas in his heart.
ReplyDeleteCharlie Brown Christmas &
ReplyDeleteIts a Wonderful Life.
Although there are many other must watch items for us from Thanksgiving to New Years.
