    The original animated "How the Grinch Stole Christmas". Still love it after all these years and try to catch it once each season. Lately I have been horrified to see that some TV stations will cut small bits out of it, I guess so they can squeeze in more commercials. For Pete's sake, it's only a half hour cartoon. I know every bit of it from beginning to end and it just ruins it when it's not all there. I should just get the darn DVD and quit whining about it. :)

    Elf...without a doubt! When they sing Baby it's cold outside I love it and never can get it out of my head so for all of you to get it in your head lets sing a few bars!

    I really can't stay
    (but baby it's cold outside)
    I've got to go 'way
    (but baby it's cold outside)
    this evening has been so very nice
    (I'll hold your hands, they're just like ice)

    my mother will start to worry!
    (beautiful, what's your hurry?)
    and father will be pacing the floor
    (listen to that fireplace roar)
    so really I'd better scurry!
    (beautiful, please don't hurry)
    well maybe just a half a drink more
    (puts some records on while I pour)

    the neighbors might think
    (baby it's bad out there)
    say, what's in this drink?
    (no cabs to be had out there)
    I wish I knew how to break the spell
    (I'll take your hat, your hair looks swell)

    I oughtta say no, no, no, sir
    (mind if I move in closer?)
    at least I'm gonna say that I tried!
    (what's the sense of hurtin' my pride?)
    I really can't stay
    (baby, don't hold out)
    [both] ahh but it's cold outside!!

    I simply must go
    (but, baby it's cold outside)
    the answer is no
    (but BABY it's cold outside)
    this welcome has been so nice and warm
    (look out the window at that STORM!)
    my sister will be suspicious!
    (gosh your lips look delicious!)
    my brother will be there at the door!
    (waves upon a tropical shore!)
    my maiden aunt's mind is vicious
    (GOSH, your lips are delicous)
    well, maybe just a cigarette more
    (NEVER such a blizzard before)

    I've got to get home!
    (but, baby, you'll FREEZE out there!)
    say, lend me your coat?
    (it's up to your knees out there)
    you've really been grand!
    (I thrill when you touch my hand)
    but don't you see?
    (HOW can you DO this thing to ME?)

    there's bound to be talk tomorrow
    (think of my life long sorrow!)
    at least there will be plenty implied!
    (if you caught pneumonia and DIED!!)
    I really can't stay!
    (baby, don't hold out)
    (o0o0o0o0o0o)
    [Both]ahhhhhhh baby it's cold outside!!

    Elf! I watch that on repeat for 24 hours on Christmas Eve to spite TBS and A Christmas Story. I effing HATE that movie.

    Also, The Grinch with Jim Carey is pretty fantastic, and Nightmare Before Christmas. Oh! And those claymation-y Christmas Cartoons (all of them)!

    . . . Oh! And those claymation-y Christmas Cartoons (all of them)!

    You just reminded me of one of my all times favorites, which I haven't seen in years since they don't air it anymore, it was a claymation cartoon - The California Raisins (OK I'm dating myself). That had some of the best music in it. I was able to find a CD of the soundtrack. Love it!

    You all make me so happy. I thought I was the ONLY person who loves The Muppet Christmas Carol. That is my #1, with the classic Rudolph my #2.
    My husband loves the old Charlie Brow Christmas one.
