Originally Posted By mapleservo A Charlie Brown Christmas is my favourite with "the Grinch" close behind. I've got the Mr. Magoo's Christmas Carol on VHS and it's still great. The songs (razzleberrry dressing!) and voice acting are wonderful -the animation is kinda on the cheap side though. Some other almost forgotten favorites... Ziggy's Gift, A Cosmic Christmas Emmet Otter's Jug-Band Christmas A B.C. Christmas Special Yes, Virginia, There is a Santa Clause 'Twas the Night Before Christmas (with the mice trying to fix the clock) I love the original Miracle on 34th Street. Hoping to catch "Christmas in Connecticut" sometime this year. That's one I've always wanted to see.
Originally Posted By peeaanuut ok, sorry to go off course here but all the mention of Charlie Brown brought up something in my head. I remember the peanuts did a series of shorts set in different time periods. If I remember there were 3 of them. 1 was of them being the kids helping out in Independence hall when the Declaration of Independence was being written. The 2nd was them helping out the Wright brothers at Kitty Hawk and the 3rd was them in space on the space shuttle. Does anyone know what these were called and if they are available on DVD?
Originally Posted By peeaanuut oh heck. I do a search on Amazon and what comes up? Exactly what I was looking for. It is called This is America, Charlie Brown. Ok, nothing to see here, move along.
Originally Posted By greenbean Charlie Brown Christmas is good but I am truly a Grinch lover! that one takes the cake for me but all the other ones are good too. I actually watched a new one (at least new to me) yesterday Rudolph's Shiny New Year. It was different but still pretty good.
Originally Posted By christiemarsh88 It's so hard to narrow it down! My definite favorite of all time is "A Muppet Christmas Carol." It just makes me feel all warm and snuggly. Then I like to cleanse my palate with "Blackadder's Christmas Carol." It's a little more (okay, a lot more) cynical. I also love "A Wish for Wings that Work", "Christmas Vacation", "Elf" and "A Christmas Story".
Originally Posted By debtee I also love the Muppet's Christmas carol, it's so funny and my fav version of the Dickens Christmas story. Christmas Vacation we always play this movie while putting up our decorations. Love actually It's a wondeful life Miracle on 34th street Home alone Ohhh I love Christmas movies there's heaps I'm forgetting.

Originally Posted By Autopia Deb I love Muppet Family Christmas, it's fun to see all of Hensen's "children" and the man himself at the end doing dishes.

Originally Posted By greenbean Oh man you guys are bringing it back! The Muppet's Christmas Carol was a good one! I stopped with the Home Alone films after the first one although I did catch a bit of Home Alone 4 during the countdown to the 25 days of Christmas. Does anyone like the Polar Express? it comes on tonight on ABC Family.
Originally Posted By melekalikimaka I think I'll watch "Love Actually" since I'm home alone today. Make up a big cup of peppermint mocha and enjoy my day off.
Originally Posted By brotherdave Batman Returns is always a fun 'Christmas flick'! Well, it takes place at Christmas anyway... Actually, my favorites, in no particular order: A Christmas Story A Christmas Carol (G.C. Scott version) National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation Elf (Although I generally don't care for Will Ferrell's type of comedy, this is one of the exceptions!) Nightmare Before Christmas Muppet Christmas Carol
