I've always loved The Santa Clause too

LadyTBolt

It's a wonderful life.
The Santa Clause
Miracle on 34th Street

I actually love so many Christmas movies and in the weeks before Christmas myself and the kids watch Christmas movies every weekend...:)

Die Hard is the greatest Christmas movie of all time. If you don't agree with me, I will fight you...

A Christmas Story
The Muppett Christmas Carol
A Christmas Carol - with Patrick Stewart

A V A

any body just love the polar express:)

the santa clause 1 and 2

the snowman

die hard baby :D:D:D:D







obviously home 1/2 , a muppets christmas carol and a christmas carol

Polar Express is really really good. Also A Christmas Story, A Miracle on 34th Street (the original) and It's a Wonderful Life.

I see a lot of people posting Muppets Christmas Carol and Christmas Vacation. Strange because they're not considered very good at all.

Gremlins!

Every Christmas I still wish for my very own Mogwai.

Also, Hai Paul.

I saw Gremlins when I was 10.

I haven't been right since >_<

Hey guys - some great Christmassy films being mentioned here! Who would have thought a thread like this would be so popular in August?! I expected 1 or 2 replies at the most!

Just love Christmas - gives me this warm feeling everytime i think of it!:)

I also love The Santa Clause, Miracle on 34th Street and It's A Wonderful Life

Feel free also to talk about your favourite Chrismtas songs, carols etc.! Your favourite everything to do with Christmas ha!:D

National Lampoons Christmas Vacation for sure - especially the bit when they're heading out to get their Christmas tree - absolutely hilarious !

Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory (original version), always shown around Christmas - an oldie but still a goodie !

There's a brilliant BBC Christmas family film from 1991 called 'Bernard and The Genie' which never gets shown anymore.

Love this movie, got a copy on DVD after trying for years, wouldn't part with it for anything.

Written by Richard Curtis, strars Alan Cumming and Lenny Henry. If you ever get the chance, watch it.

Also haven't seen the snowman - like i've seen the music video for walking in the air (love that song - reminds me of the an post ad!) but not the actual film

Is it just me or do they show all the best chrismtas films at really bad times during the Chrismtas season?! Or maybe it's just a bad time for me!

A V A

well ye

its 50/50 really
they do show the films at bad times but show them at good times aswell , now i have the recording option

Yes i don't unforunately - must get the aul Sky+

VW 1

Surprised nobody has mentioned The Great Escape, was always great for passing a couple of hours on xmas afternoon after the dinner when everybody had gone for a nap!!

ahh but it has its downfall though , if your recording a programs thats on at 2 to half 3 on bbc 1 and then on utv another film starts at 3.10 you cant record it , you have to wait till the other is finished !!!! fcukin stupid upc, sure you can watch everything on the net now any way haha

That's true...haha:D Perhaps if one had Sky multi-room - then one could record both films at the same time:D
