    grinch(cartoon), charlie brown, and a christmas story. i like charlie brown period, so the x-mass special is right up my alley.

    My sister goes to performing arts school and recently performed the Charlie Brown musical. It was hilarious and ever since then, I need to get my hands on some Charlie Brown. It's so long ago that I saw any but it's so my humour.

    I have to say I think Raymond Briggs' The Snowman is genius.

    I love Mickey's Christmas Carol, but probably my favorite Christmas-related movie is Love Actually. It seems like it's not well known though. I was telling one of my guy friends about it and he was under the impression it's a "chick movie"...not at ALL.

    Hah! It's not christmas without a bit of old-fashioned British comedy :D

    Love a bit of Monty Python too.
