Love Actually is a solid Christmas movie.

I really like Love Actually too but I'm glad you admitted it first. Christmas Story to me is not only a great Christmas movie but really one of the better movies I've seen. Really captures that time period.

 

[billsin01]

seconded.

I loved it at the time but feel Xmas Vacation seems really dated now.

Emmet Otter's Jug Band Christmas. River Bottom Nightmare Band totally ROCKS!

 

[jekelish]

The Star Wars Christmas Special.

Old school movies. Can be seen on TCM.

The Bishops Wife (1947)
Holiday Affair (1949)
Remember The Night (1940)
Christmas In Connecticut (1945)...sorry Marsh... (for CTO)

Everytime that is on, I feel like I am right back in the middle of women wearing shoulder pads and green laminent countertops. It is almost jarring..

I'll proudly be wearing my Clark Griswold Chicago Blackhawks jersey come Christmas morning. And yes, I own one.

This pretty much sums it up (though I haven't seen #5 in many years).

Also, Love Actually is a modern day Christmas classic. And, no, I absolutely not would have admitted that if two other posters hadn't been brave enough to bring it up.

The Godfather also gets pretty heavy Christmastime play. Don't know why; it does have a Christmas scene.

Bad Santa

 

[Upstate]

I'll nominate The Muppets Christmas Carol
