What is your favorite Holiday movie/movies? Mine is A Christmas Carol

[debm55]

[Walleye]

1. I agree with you on this one, hard to beat that movie

And I’m a real fan of Charles Dickens

[debm55]

2. I like the one with George C. Scott as Scrooge.

[Walleye]

3. That is also very good. Alistair Sim is the original Scrooge for me

[debm55]

4. Yes, Alistair Sim was great also.

[blm]

5. Not Bill Murray?

🤓 Kidding, of course.

[debm55]

6. I like the A Christmas Carol to stick a little more to the book and meaning. Just me. The Bill Murray version is fine. I

like comedies and other genres of Holiday movies, too. I just put the one because that is what I was thinking about.

[bluestarone]

40. The best one for us is

Alistair Sim's. There ALL good though! One Magic Christmas is good as well.

[Paladin]

10. The Alistair Sim version.

End of discussion, as far as I'm concerned---although a pretty fair musical version was done, years ago.

[debm55]

15. I'll admit I do like that version better, however it is in black and white and it does bother my eyes. Other then that

it is excellent.

[jpak]

7. Mr. Magoo's Christmas Carol

Scared the crap out of me when I was kid...

[debm55]

8. May I ask why? was it the story, or the cartoonists?

[jpak]

29. The ghost of Christmas yet to come

[debm55]

31. Yes, I understand. It can be frightening. during the Wizard of Oz I always closed my eyes when the flying monkeys came

on. That's okay to scared. It's normal

[jpak]

35. I used to hide under the couch during the tornado scenes

Yikes

[Freddie]

33. Me too

Mr. Magoo was the 1st time I saw any version of A Christmas Carol (I was about 6) and it was scary.

[Niagara]

9. In no certain order:

Christmas for a Dollar

The Holiday

Christmas with the Kranks

A Christmas Story

[debm55]

12. A Christmas Story ---yes TY I watch every year

[Trailrider1951]

11. It's gotta be A Christmas Story. That movie is hilarious

Watching Ralphie takes me back to growing up in the 50's in a mid-western town (Columbus, O) with my quirky Dad and Mom. No matter when it comes on, I just have to watch it.

[Freddie]

32. Yes!

And despite the countless times I’ve seen it, I think I catch something new every time.

[rsdsharp]

13. White Christmas.

Bing Crosby, Danny Kaye, Rosemary Clooney, Vera-Ellen and Irving Berlin’s music.

[debm55]

16. Yes, I have seen that in a long time. I will have to see if it is on and when. TY.

[gopiscrap]

14. National Lampoon's "Christmas Vacation"

[debm55]

17. I have never seen that, but I have seen clips. Have to check in out. Ty

[Different Drummer]

18. I have three.

Santa Claus

Santa Claus Conquers the Martians

Santa and the Ice Cream Bunny

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0138074/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_5_nm_0_q_Santa%2520Claus%2520and%2520the%2520Ice%2520Cream%2520Bunny

[Coventina]

20. Santa Claus Conquers the Martians is Mwah!!! (chef's kiss)

A++ start to finish!!

Santa Claus is just a bit too grim for me.

Santa and the Ice Cream Bunny was clearly made by people dropping acid!!

[debm55]

21. I remember seeing the movie Santa Clause Conquers the Martians when i was a little kid. It was sort of cheesy

Sometimes I like to watch cheesy movies, just for the heck of it.

[Different Drummer]

23. The first two of my choices were on MST3K at various times.

I can't recall where I first saw "Santa and the Ice Cream Bunny."

[Different Drummer]

24. So true about "Santa and the Ice Cream Bunny."

[Coventina]

19. Muppet Christmas Carol!!

?si=TDvPU8wMcsSVXyI1

[debm55]

22. Never seen before but I am game to give it a go. TY

[Coventina]

25. It stars Michael Caine. It's very faithful to the source material.

But with a lot of humor and heart.

I think you will love it!

[debm55]

26. Thanks Coventina.

[rurallib]

27. Miracle on 34th Street

Fell in love with it as a kid and still can't find anything that comes close

[debm55]

28. It's on my must watch list every Christmas

[maptap22]

30. Love Actually

❤️

[Freddie]

34. Home Alone

When my kids were little they watched it over…and over…as kids will do. Still funny.

[Elessar Zappa]

36. Hmmm...

Probably Home Alone. Then Elf and National Lampoon’s Christmas/

[OldBaldy1701E]

37. Die Hard. (n/t)

[gratuitous]

38. The Ref

It'll probably cost me more time in Purgatory or a lower circle of Hell, but I still like it.
