So many good ones, but favorites off the top of my head that I'd gladly watch multiple times (esp given the traditional tv marathon of one of them) would be "A Christmas story," "The Polar Express," and the good old classic "Mickey's Christmas Carol." (And miss some of the old ones from the 80s you can't really find on anymore.)
Honorable mention to Rudolph and the other old Christmas specials, but they're not movies. Did anyone else when they were young used to fall asleep with "A Christmas Story" on Christmas Eve, during its marathon, and later wake up again at the point you left off? My sister and I both used to do that sometimes. lol |

We’re No Angels (1955)
Batman Returns Mean Girls Very good Christmas movies to watch even if you’re not in a Christmassy mood.

Home Alone 1 and 2.
Though I do not watch them every New Year (since in Russia New Year is the main winter holiday and X-Max is just for religious people), but they are so full of holiday spirit! |

Which is the one where one of Santa Claus' Christmas elves end up in Chicago or New York City (or something)?

My students think anything from pre-2000 is old by contrast and Home Alone is a rare exception to their limitations. Considering the Alexa commercial showing that Home Alone ( are you listening Disney Plus) would be so different with technology less than a generation later its surprising, but there is the basic message that resonates and I believe they subconsciously understand. I apologize for detracting the thread. Its the one day of the semester I can read Ninja Turtles with students in the room.

Home Alone is my favorite. A Christmas Story is great.
I love hopping between Christmas-themed episodes of shows that I love. Sometimes I'm willing to watch an old nostalgic show, I wouldn't otherwise give the time too, because it has that sort of added bonus of being holiday-themed as well as nostalgic. The Simpsons comes to mind. |
