Favourite Christmas Films

[Melinda Halliwell]

In celebration of Christmas what's everyone's favourite film/films here they watch year after year? Do you people have an order or preference there viewed in or just seen as and when is?

Just two, I guess. "The Last Unicorn" - I love the music more than the actual film, and naturally "Scrooged" with Bill Murray. These two are my only ritual movies on Christmas, yet this time I haven't been able to watch them.

I like Scooged, starring Bill Murray.    This was a fun take on Dicken's A Christmas Carol.

There are quite a few movies I don't mind at Christmas like the Muppets Christmas Carol, Home Alone 1 and 2 and Mary Poppins for instance although I wouldn't call these my favourites though.

I also enjoy Christmas Vacation. 

Gotta admire Clark Griswald's determination to give his family a nice Christmas, despite all the resulting disasters.

It’s already past Christmas but anyway, these are my favourite Christmas Films so far - The “A Christmas Prince” trilogy, Love on Ice (doesn’t really take place during Christmas but the entire movie centering around a winter sport could still make it passable as a Christmas film), The Polar Express, An “Even Steven” Holiday (the As Told By Ginger Christmas special), Home Alone and Rise of the Guardians.

The Polar Express.

That's the one that Tom Hanks did, right?

Yep voicing the train conductor which I've seen many times where I work with the kids.

Ah, I thought so.
