One thing we can all agree on

[knowknow456]

is that It's a Wonderful Life is the greatest Christmas movie of all time. The Year Without a Santa Claus is without question the greatest children's Christmas show ever. Could there really be any other opinion? Now would be a good time to weigh in.
Merry Christmas!

Here are the ones I watch every year.

Christmas Story
It's a wonderful life
Christmas Vacation
Elf

I would probably rank them in that order.

The three we watch every year no matter what:

Miracle on 34th Street
It's a Wonderful Life
Christmas Vacation

I also liked The Gathering, but that's a tear jerker.

Christmas Vacation
Die Hard
Bad Santa

The problem I always had with Die Hard was the ending that was over the top "jolly" after a jet had crashed killing a couple of hundred people on the same runway 30 minutes earlier. It was just a weird ending.

Hard to argue with some of those already mentioned. "Home Alone' and the George C. Scott version of 'A Christmas Carol' also deserve consideration.

Also, these animated classics:
Charlie Brown Christmas
Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer
How the Grinch Stole Christmas?
Mr. Magoo's Christmas Carol

TV Episodes -- These 10, among others
The Honeymooners -- Twas the Night Before Christmas
Twilight Zone -- Night of the Meek
The Simpsons -- Roasting on an Open Fire
Mary Tyler Moore Show -- Christmas and the Hard Luck Kid
Cheers -- Where There's a Will
Mash - Death Takes a Holiday
Seinfeld -- The Strike
Laverne & Shirley -- Christmas at the Booby Hatch
Taxi -- A Full House for Christmas
The Bob Newhart Show -- His Busiest Season

You're thinking die hard 2 - die hard (best action movie ever?) ends with Mrs. McClain punching the sleazy reporter
