Elf - I hate Will Ferrel but the message of this movie is bigger than his anoyingness.
Bad Santa - it's crass as fuck but Billy BoB just looks too damn hot in it and his character has all the emotional issues I tend find in men my own age. There's a reason I look for younger. |

Why indeed???
Is it all now just not a commercial exercise?
As the baby Jesus was born in July and Christmas was put at the winter solstice to bring in the pagans and give them a feeling of continuity.
Now as Christianity is on the wain, should we not be asking the question. Why Christmas at all?
As we know it will never disappear due to its commercial value but the actual reason is it not now lost? |

Muppets Christmas Carol - Every character is light hearted and whimsical while Michael Caine takes the film as seriously as a car crash. A wonderful adaptation of Dickens.
Die Hard - An ordinary man caught up in an extraordinary situation. Desperately trying to save his wife amid a Christmas setting
Miracle on 34th Street - Makes me think of being a kid and simpler times.
Jingle All the Way - 2 men with borderline insanity obsess over getting this years must toy. And I love Arnie.
Gremlins - It's Gremlins. |

Was always elf but I think it’s been overtaken by Last Christmas which features wham/George Michael songs. Has a great twist to it, watch it every year.
I love the cheesy hallmark Christmas movies with powdered snow and a million Christmas cookies, I’m a sap

"Now it’s Violent night, that was hilarious  "
Loved it but I also have room for A Christmas Carol with Alastair Sim and The Bishop's Wife but it's got to be the Carey Grant original not the awful remake
The Lion In Winter with Peter O'Toole and Katherine Hepburn is another gem |

"Bloody typo in thread starter! 
Favourite Christmas movies and why?
"
Black Christmas - Gotta have a horror in there
National Lampoons Christmas Vacation - This movie taught me the importance of making epic memories for your kids...And it’s hilarious.
Scrooged - Horror/comedy/Bill Murray. What more you want?
Last Christmas - My newest favourite. It’s like a love letter to my home town.
And I never fancied Emilia Clarke, until I saw her sitting on the ground eating a kebab  |
