I don't believe anyone mentioned the classic "You'll shoot your eye out" movie AKA "The Christmas Story". Watch out for the Bumpas's dogs. And no triple dog dares.
........."Bad Santa" was also good. Great holiday spirit.

71 Best Christmas Movies of All Time - Best Christmas Films Ever Made

I just watched Home Alone again but had not seen it in years. :popcorn:

It is number 5 on this list.

Not sure if I would consider Die Hard a Christmas movie.


While we are on the subject of Christmas and related movies, wasn't anyone disappointed that out of 71 movies there were only 1 or 2 that addressed the true meaning of Christmas? I would have hoped to have seen movies like "The Nativity Story", "The Ultimate Gift", "Christmas Miracle", "The Robe" etc., you know, to counter such other great Christmas classics as "Silent Night Deadly Night", "Batman Returns", "Gremlins" and "Die Hard". Just saying.

He probably flew his plane over my father at some time in N.Africa!

He was shot down March 8, 1942. I'm glad he didn't get out......
