O sorry,

Since you have two cartoons already up there, I’ll feel free to choose a different cartoon. I like The Year Without a Santa Claus (1974) with the Miser brothers, Heat Miser and Snow Miser and their cute little songs.

“They call me Heat Miser,
What ever I touch
Starts to melt in my clutch
I’m too much!”

Christmas Vacation is at the top of my list with Christmas Story coming in at a close 2nd…

Clark…is your house on fire? :wink:

No Aunt Bethony, Those are Christmas lights

The Santa Clause with Tim Allen was good for the first twenty minutes, like he wrote the movie. After he turns into Santa Clause it seems like Disney takes over and makes it stupid.

But my favorite is

FAR RA RA RA RAAAA, RA RA RA RA!
(Christmas at the Chineese Resteraunt how great! :))

A Christmas Story!

The nightmare before Christamas is the best movie ever in general… Enough said.

GRANDMA GOT RAN OVER BY A REINDEER, the song and the movie rock.

A multi holiday film:

Nightmare Before Christmas

I want a red rider carbine action bebe gun with a compass in the stock.
You’ll shoot your eye out!!!
OO Fudge!! Except i didn’t say fudge.
A++++++++++++++++

A CHRISTMAS STORY!!!

~It’s a wonderful life
~Miracle on 34th (old)
~Jingle all the way!!!

Does The Nutcracker count?

I don’t know if I would consider it my favorite but every year growing up when my parents went to my dad’s Patent/Holiday Banquet (how the engineers celebrate the holidays), A Very Brady Christmas would always be on and my babysitter would always watch it with my brother and I. I just saw it again on tv yesterday…memories.

Amy, ya got good taste. Except… Jingle all the way??? :wink:

My favorite holiday movie is definately National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation. It’s hilarious!

“If that cat had nine lives it sure used 'em all.”

Next would have to be A Christmas Story. The best scene is when Ralphie’s friend, Flick, sticks his tongue to a pole.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

It’s all in the claymation Rudolph… I can’t remember the name… but c’mon a squirt gun that shoots jelly?

It’ not really a which is better it’s more of a which order do you watch them in kinda thing for me… The very first has got to be “A Charlie Brown Christmas” -that’s the actual title- Then “The Grinch” the animated one narrated by Boris Karloff. After those you get the whole “Frosty” “Rudolph” etc. Those are the get you in the holiday mood cartoons. After that you’ve got “A Christmas Story” that’s a timeless classic, imho, as is “A Nightmare Before Christmas.” Personally, I’ve never been able to get into “Its a Wonderful Life” I’ve just put it into the same category as country music, whiny, complaining… sorry, I’l stop so as not to offend anyone, i know plenty of people who absolutely love that movie (my grampa). On Christmas Eve there are 2 movies I have to watch, “Miracle on 34th Street” (only the b&w!!!) followed by “Prancer.” Now the thing about Prancer is that it has to fall around midnight. When I was still in school I would have to watch “The Wizard of Oz” during break. But hey, as all those who know me will agree, I’m not exactly… well I’m “interesting” and “unique” so I really don’t have a favorite movie just my normal viewing order.
