Mine is Christmas Vacation... it's pretty funny. If you don't know what I'm talking about, its the 3rd installment of the Vacation series with Chevy Chase. If you hvaen't seen it, you need to.

Gotta be the classic A Christmas Story. You know, the one with the blonde kid with glasses who only wants a BB gun but everyone keeps telling him "you'll shoot your eye out"

Does the Charlie Brown Christmas movie count? I don't know if that's my favorite. It's awesome though. So is Muppet Christmas Charol. So is Groundhog's Day, Groundhog's Day is a holiday too. What else rocks? Boon doesn't think so, but I think It's a Wonderful Life is great. I haven't seen Elf yet, but it's probably good. The Mickey Christmas Charol is good, but not as good as Muppet. Ernest Saves Christmas. Those old claymation ones rock too. That's all I can think of right now. Sorry.

i love 'silent night, bloody night'...that's a goretastic cheesy good time.

seriously, a christmas story and ernest saves christmas.

i think that groundhog day is one of the funniest movies ever, as well.

and yes, i don't like it's a wonderful life. no one did until it became such baggage the owner never renewed the copyrights so every television station and its mother could show it. holiday classic my butt. the only thing that makes it a classic is that you were forced to watch it on every bleeding channel you flipped to when you were a kid on christmas day, so you had no choice but to like it.

frank capra's other films are MUCH better, but no one plays them all the time...oh yeah, b/c someone cared enough about them to renew the freakin' copyright.

It's a Wonderful Life isn't just my favorite holiday movie, its my favorite movie period.

There story isn't classic in the classic sense, its revealing and true-to-life even today.

There should be no discussion on this, Christmas Story is the greatest holiday movie that ever was or ever will be. That's why there aren't many Hanukka or Kwanzaa movies out, because they can't hope to compete with Christmas Story. Christmas Vacation is a classic, yes, but it's no Christmas Story. A film so great that, despite watching it for 24 hours every single Christmas Eve/Christmas without fail, can still be funny year in and year out is truly a masterpiece.

I like THE GRINCH... the movie with TIM ALLEN where he becomes Santa Claus was good too... Home Alone also coems in the mix... ol Home Alone, can't forget that; so fake but so funny...

I love both of the Grinch movies. The original cartoon and the movie. Those are my favorite holiday movies!
