    Christmas Story and Home Alone tie for second.  All three get watched annually this time of year.

    I think HOOK is quite a good christmas movie... It's not about Christmas but has a nice feel that fits. And it was shown on christmas over here for a couple of years.

    If you Google "Christmas Movies" you probably won't find this one there, but I think of it as a Christmas movie and will name it my favorite: "The Family Man"

    “The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man [or woman] who lives fully is prepared to die at any time.”
    Variously credited to Mark Twain or Edward Abbey.

    I love that Ernest Saves Christmas is an option!
    I wish I was a sacrifice, but somehow still lived on.

    I forgot that Ernest ever existed. Apparently, he’s big in Greece?

    If you're a movie person, they're both worth a watch, although I wonder how much someone would like them seeing for the first time now.  I think there's a bit of nostalgia tied to both for me.
