Please list the best Christmas movies.
A Christmas Carol 1951, A Christmas Carol 1938, A Miracle on 34th Street, and The Bishop's Wife are great classic Christmas movies.
A Charlie Brown Christmas, Frosty the Snowman, and Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer are great animated Christmas movies.
A Christmas Prince, Christmas in Boston, and A Boyfriend for Christmas, though fluff, are friendly Christmas movies of the last 15 years.
What other classic Christmas movies?
What other animated Christmas movies and Christmas movies of the last 15 years?
Oh, and yer a punk.
Had to be the number one pick and you won...
LOL!
We are all thinking pretty much the same thing...
Phoebe Cates!
She’s Christmas...
Patton. The Bastogne segment near the end makes it one of the happiest true Christmas stories ever
“A Christmas Memory” by Truman Capote. It’s a slice of Depression Era Christmas with some great characters.
I can’t decide which version is better:
1997 version with Patty Duke.
- or -
1966 version with Geraldine Page and narrated by Capote himself
Good observation. That was very well done!
It’s a Wonderful Life is much better with the new ending....

The DVD is played every Christmas Eve at the Fig house
Did you ever see “The Last Days of Patton”?
It ends with a Children’s Choir singing “Silent Night” as Patton passes on.
A significant percentage of responses reference the phrase Yippie Ki Yay.
Have not. I’ll look for it
I love the feel of A Christmas Story.
I have never seen It’s a Wonderful Life all the way through. I’ve seen the end a dozen times. I set out to watch it about 10 years ago and... next thing I know I’m waking up and it’s the ending again.
Muppet Christmas Carol
We’re very fond of Patton, but it doesn’t have any Christmas associations for us. Something to think about ...
We’re church musicians, so we tend to go to bed early the 24th to be ready for work Christmas morning. This year, we’re not playing until 1:00 p.m. on the 25th, so we could stay up late watching “Patton”!
Mthrfkr...
This is a family-friendly post.
I dropped the vowels...
One of the child stars of Christmas Story went into porn.
Love The Bishop’s Wife AND The Shop Around The Corner.
