Favourite Christmas Films

[looksgoodinred]

First week of December, and the Christmas films are starting.

Are there any you look forward to watching, year after year?

I'm partial to Miracle on 34th Street, and Elf.

[tup]

I watched Miracle on 34th Street with the kids the other day which is the first time I've watched a film for some time.

 

Utter drivel.

 

Mind you the posh wifie on it would have been worth a dunt back in 1945 or whenever it was, it took the mannie the whole film just to get a kiss out of her. Christ knows how long it would have taken to get a ride off of her.

 

I reckon Kris Kringle had more than a whiff of paedo about him.

[DandyDon KD]

Bad Santa and elf

[Jonty]

A Christmas Story always make me chuckle...

Also love Home Alone when the bandits are getting it, some of those scenes are just Tom & Jerry style funny.

For me, It doesn't feel like Christmas until I've watched either Zulu or Schindler's list.

Gremlins followed by the die hard films

 

elf and home alone have their moments.

He was a clear wolf in sheep's clothing!

 

He canna just be nice full stop without any catches.

 

I wouldna be letting him in the lassie's room unsupervised but her mither was so busy with her work at Macy's that she didna notice the beast in the midst.

[boboisared]

Home Alone.

 

I heard it's Geoff Tipps favourite too?

[tup]

Bill N Ted's Excellent Adventure.

 

'Heinous!'

Bad Santa is immense.

 

I have Elf and Nightmare Before Christmas on DVD to watch this year.

I used to like the original Santa Clause movie with Dudley Moore as the elf. That was a favorite when I was growing up.

Just ignore them LGIR.

[daytripping]

The Great Escape is a classic and is always on at this time of year, love it.

 

That and Football factory.

[Ke1t]

Obviously Bad Santa is the greatest Christmas movie ever, but running it a close second in terms of Christmassyness would have to be the Live Action La Blue Girl.

 

Pretty much.

 

MDAL, you might want to not let your curiosity get the better of you here.

 

Fair warning

[OddJob]

its a wonderful life.

 

or die hard

Good choice there and also agree with folk saying Bad Santa

[King Street Loon]

Scrooged, which I watched on Sunday.

 

And Elf, which I'm going to watch this Sunday.

 

I've never watched Bad Santa before, so I'm hoping it's on this year.
