It's begining to look a lot like Christmas everywhere I go...They are starting to air Christmas movies, so here are 13 of my favorites. One website list Die Hard as a Christmas movie. I can't really see that, so I left it off even though I love Bruce Willis. I will probably treat myself today and buy the most recent installation of John McClane

Reading the passage about Christ's birth gets me every time. I am surprised that they can still get away with airing it on network TV. 2.
For every misfit out there in this world. There is a place where you belong.

There are so many versions of this story. I have always like the George C. Scott version. But honestly, my next favorite is Scrooged with Bill Murray.

My favorite part of this movie is listening to Lauren Bacall and Thora Birch sing "Baby, It's Cold Outside." It is almost impossible to believe that this sweet, innocent child is the actress from "The Hole."

The original. Never the recent version with Jim Carey. I love Boris Karloff's voice. 6.
Come on, who doesn't think this is funny.

Ralphie is one of my favorites, and I don't care how many times they air this every year. I watch it almost everytime I can.

Warm and fuzzy childhood memories. 9.
Only the first one. It is funny. But the sequel, what kind of parents could lose the kid twice.

I have always loved this movie. The world is a better place with each of us in it.

This movie has Bing Crosby and Fred Astaire in it. Bing sings "White Christmas." I always dream of a white Christmas and some years even here in Tennessee I get it.

Oh, I can't get enough of Home Alone 1 and 2. Those are a most-see in my house on Christmas' Eve. *wg* Happy T13!
Great list Lia! I think I watch every one of the those movies at least half a dozen times throughout the season!
there is something about the holidays that always brings the best of things...Great list..Home Alone is a classic
Great list! I've watched most of these so many times and never tired of them. BUT... (gasp!) I've never seen (or don't remember now that I'm old...which sucks).... that Lauren Bacall moment. Guess I "hafta" get that movie! Yipppppeee -- any excuse to don my jammies and hang out in movieville on a snow day. Thanks!
Oooo the Lauren Bacall one is one I haven't seen. I'll have to check it out.
And we LOVE "A Christmas Story" here. It's a fav.
These are great movies.
My favorite version of Dicken's classic is "Scrooge" with Albert Finney. It's a musical and I love it.
I love your list. It's full of classics.
I always liked "A Year without Santa Claus" and we still watch the Grinch every year. The original. Max is so cute...
I LOVE Miracle on 34th Street (the original). It always puts me in the mood for Christmas!
I'm a huge fan of Rudolph! My favorite scene (which so few people get) is when the Sam the Snowman slides past the seals playing with the packages and says, "Ah, the Christmas seals."
And yes, you have to be Scrooge to not find Christmas Vacation funny. Great list!
The movies are one of the best things about this time of year.
I think the only one I haven't seen is #4, and #7 is one of my absolute favorites. I could watch teh DVD over and over and over.... *grin*
