    Rudolf
    A Christmas Story
    Home Alone II (I don't know why I prefer this to Home Alone I... but that Pizza scene in the limo always makes me want pizza, and the cookie scene when he grabs all the cookies when fleeing the hotel, it always makes me want cookies!)
    Nightmare Before Christmas (can be Halloween or Christmas :) )
    Love Actually

    Christmas Vacation
    A Christmas Story
    'I want to hurry home to you
    put on a slow, dumb show for you
    and crack you up
    so you can put a blue ribbon on my brain
    god I'm very, very frightening
    and I'll overdo it'

    National Lampoons Christmas Vacation
    Home Alone
    Mickey's Christmas Carol
    A Christmas Story
    Gremlins
    Scrooged
    Garfield Christmas
    Badder Santa

    I'll never forget TBS The Super Station would alway's play A Christmas Story every Christmas Day on repeat. It's been 2 year's now that the channel changed to Peach TV. Since then they don't show that film anymore.

    Thank god for torrents & data dvdrs. Got all these & 50 other Christmas film's on data dvdr's playing around the clock when the relatives are over on various rooms. Gotta love commerical free! 8-)

    And A Christmas Carol, the 1950's one with Alistair Sims
    These are my favorites as well. I was asking the 20 somethings at work yesterday about It's A Wonderful Life and not a one of them had even heard of it. Great movie even if it's not Christmas.

    Christmas morning we will be watching Christmastime In South Park a collection of 5 Christmas episodes.

    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.

    The life, she be wonderful? Oh yeah.

    And Little Women. The one with the feisty June Allyson.

    Also, the thirtysomething ep about Christmas and Hannukah. Absolutely beautiful and tear-inducing.

    Ironically there are a number of them that came out far away from it in theaters.

    Gremlins - Originally supposed to be out in Xmas 84 but Warner was optimistic about it doing good in the summer.
    Die Hard 1 and 2
    The Ref
    Lethal Weapon
    Trading Places
    Batman Returns

    Another cable channel that has sadly lost its identity. It's only worth watching if it's on HBO or Starz since they both play older Fox movies and HBO plays new ones. I actually saw it on Starz last Xmas as well.

    I just got it on iTunes recently through Fox's Movie Of The Day app.
