    Elf is definitely the best, good call! Followed closely by The Grinch Who Stole Christmas (of the Jim Carrey variety) you should give it a watch!

    For a "Christmas Theme" movie:

    The b&w "The Bishop's Wife" with Cary Grant (as Dudley the Angel), David Niven (as The Bishop), and Loretta Young (as The Bishop's Wife).

    The later color "the Preacher's Wife" was based on it, (with Whitney Houson as The Preacher's Wife) but not as good in my personal opinion.

    For those who would have picked "Die Hard" ... check out "Kiss Kiss Bang Bang"

    Gremlins/Die Hard/Home Alone/Muppet Christmas Carol/Elf are all must haves for us during the festive season

    That said we did watch It's a Wonderful Life this weekend and that was pretty good too - oldies but goldies

    Oh and I almost forgot the Santa Clause with Tim Allen the others were pap but the first one was good

    Die Hard is a fantastic movie, but that's a Christmas movie like Silence of the Lambs is an animal movie. Just the fact that it is set in December does not make it a Christmas movie.

    That doesn't make sense, even Die Hard 2 was set at Christmas!
