    Oh man, I remember Emmet Otter's Jug Band Christmas. That sure does bring back memories. I remember I was about 12 years old and it premiered on HBO. I enjoyed the River Bottom Nightmare Band. LOL

    A Christmas Story
    The Nightmare Before Christmas
    How The Grinch Stole Christmas (original animated film)
    ANY claymation movie, I.e. Rudolph or Jack Frost
  • I'm a kid at heart. I enjoyed all the Rankin & Bass Christmas movies.

    Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer
    Frosty the Snowman
    Santa Claus is Coming to Town

    I also enjoyed

    The Little Drummer Boy
    Charlie Brown's Christmas
    How the Grinch Stole Christmas

    The Christmas movies like Christmas Vacation, Home Alone, Home Alone 2, It's a Wonderful Life, A Christmas Story are ones that I love watching each year. A Christmas Carol, spooked me out as a child and even as an adult I still get apprehensive but it's a great story. :happy:
  • Silent Night, Deadly Night?
  • White Christmas with Bing Crosby:heart: I watch it every year with my dad and now it's on Netflix:heart:

    ****ens Christmas Carol ... George C. Scott version is very good.

    in the 5th Stave the Spirit of Christmas Future has landed Ebenezer in the graveyard and old E.S. sees his own headstone. He has a pretty good reaction to it .... "Assure me that I yet may change these shadows you have shown me, by an altered life. Oh, tell me I may sponge away the writing on this stone."

    So .... could this apply to being overweight as well as to being a scrooge???? That is the real question. Can we sponge away the writing on our own headstone?

    Great movie. Great moral.
    T.

    Totally agree!!!! One of my all time FAVORITE Christmas Movies.....Still brings a lump to my throat and tear to my eyes,,,,,,:sad:
