Favorite Christmas movie?
I was wondering if anyone had a favorite Christmas movie or show they like to watch this time of year.

My favorites are White Christmas and the Charlie Brown Christmas Special. They both remind me of my childhood.

I like both of those but we usually end up watching "A Christmas Story" on Christmas eve.

I'm fond of Terry Zwygoff's work, so the off-humor of "Badder Santa" with John Ritter, Bernie Mac and Billy Bob Thornton is a favorite...

"The nightmare before Christmas" - but you can watch it any old time too - and
the *1966* production of Ern Collins' "A Christmas Memory".

I love that line!

Ok.....Christmas Vacation has topped my list since it came out. Bad Santa is in there now too.

Christmas Vacation is also my all-timer. We just watched a new (for us) oldie this year - Christmas in Connecticut with Barbara Stanwyck from '45. Great fun movie.

Happy Christmas and Best of New Years to all AKers!
