I think my favorite has always been Mickey's Christmas Carol - mostly because my older brother sent me the video tape when I was little (he was in New York at college and I was in Spokane, WA in elementary school). I always looked up to him, so when I got this I watched it like crazy, and it's now a family tradition. I love the National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation (the first one, I didn't even know there was another one til last week), and I like that newer movie that came out too - the Nativity Story. What's your favorite?

I have three that I can think of off the top of my head.
1. Prancer--I was about the same age as the little girl in the movie when it came out, so I've always loved it.
2. The Family Man (the one with Nicholas Cage)
3. It's a Wonderful Life--This is a classic!0 -
National Lampoons Christmas Vacation, hands down. We watch it every year, sometimes several times a year for the last 15 or 20 years and I swear I see something new in it everytime almost.
I also love A Christmas Story (going to watch it tonight), Home Alone, and the old cartoons from childhood like Mickey's Christmas Carole, Garfield Christmas, Charlie Brown Christmas, The Grinch (the cartoon not the real movie).....I love christmas movies.0 -
I agree National Lampoons Christmas Vacation Rocks! My Favorite of all time I laugh until I want to pee my pants EVERY TIME I WATCH IT--which usually doesn't happen with movies I see more than once!! LOVE IT0

elf and the nightmare before christmas0

gotta love Cousin Eddie...our family has fun with that one-
1. One of my older brothers strapping a HUGE Christmas tree to his little tiny gold Subaru (hatchback type car), and that tree was strapped well over the hood (top of the tree) and tied to the windshield, all the way with the trunk hanging past the back of the car. We started calling him Clark Griswold after that... Wish I had a picture of it..
2. My younger brother has an old RV he bought off some guy in Montana, and it's not the prettiest thing you ever saw, but if you're ever out traveling in Montana, and see it, he's got MT personalized plates that say Cousin Eddie on them (I'm not sure how he worked the spelling) but that beast is something else... we all joked we'd get him a bathrobe that was just too short for him to wear when they go camping.. LOL

I forgot about this one - Love Actually - definitely not for the kids, but some happy, sad, and humorous stuff in there. Parts that make me crack up, and parts that make me cry. Good chick flick.0

Mine is hands down Love Actually. It's not Christmas until I watch it! We watch it every year the weekend after Thanksgiving while we decorate. It's such a sweet movie!!0
