Capn_Jackson Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 Scrooged with Bill Murray and Karen Allen is my favorite, followed by Christmas Vacation. Die Hard, Elf, Christmas Story, Home Alone, and Hook are up there for me, too. Another one I enjoy a lot is the 1984 made-for-TV version of Christmas Carol. It had George C. Scott as Scrooge and David Warner as Bob Cratchit. Very dark and gloomy, and freaked me out as a kid but I also loved it. Still watch it most years. Good one to sit down and enjoy in the dark with a mug of hot cocoa, or bourbon, or both. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the record, I don't necessarily think of Die Hard as an Xmas movie, but I don't have a strong conviction either way. For me, the essential requirement of an Xmas movie is whether or not the movie makes you feel Christmasy and whether or not you associate the movie with the Xmas season..... Basically it's just like sexual harassment, if you feel harassed/christmasy, than I suppose it's Christmas/harassment. At least that's what HR told me. Does Foh have an HR department 🤔?

Russell Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 Christmas vacation, a Christmas story, I’m a fan of Santa Claus with Tim Allen, and Home Alone. Also every year my wife and I watch all The Office (US version) Christmas episodes cause we’re big office nerds - to the point where I have an Office tattoo 🤣 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'love actually' is always worth a a re-watch. great cast, lots of fun. some of the threads don't work but those that do make it worthwhile. but bad santa, trading places and the king of them all, die hard, take top spots i think. I like a "Wonderful Life" trying to figure out what bottle of port he is drinking near the beginning. "Die Hard" is my favorite Christmas movie along with "Krampus". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigkahuna Posted December 8, 2022 Share Posted December 8, 2022 NLs Christmas vacation #1 and Christmas story #2 with Christmas story Christmas coming in a distant 3rd Adult Scut Farkus is exactly how I imagined him to be 😆 We actually built our house in homage to Christmas vacation : huge foyer for xl tree, outside outlets connected to a single garage interior switch, pull down attic stairs and a custom knewl post that is cut off every year. The builder made it so it’s attached with a dowel rod inside and is replaceable after cutting. Oh and yes 25,000 imported twinkling lights lol. Even recreate the temper tantrum annually with the lights complete with 80s style plastic Santa kick. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
