White Christmas and Love Actually are two must-watch movies every year for me. I’ve already watched Christmas Vacation so far. The scene with the squirrel cracks me up every damn time.

And I really enjoyed Four Christmases. I wasn’t expecting it to be so funny, so that’s always a plus.

Holiday in Handcuffs is a cheesy little ABCFamily movie with Melissa Joan Hart and Mario Lopez (which is reason enough to watch it right there…such eye candy!) But it’s cute and my girls and I like it. According to imbd, it’s on the 10th at 8 and the 13th at 4.

Don’t know how I could have missed Christmas with the Kranks. Hysterical!

Hey, Die Hard’s an awesome Christmas movie! With two references to Die Hard in the Devlin Group series, it’s no secret I’m a big fan.

I’ve never heard of Holiday in Handcuffs. Hmm…

Oh! Miracle on 34th Street!

I don’t own the DVD of either version, though I watch every year on TV. I actually like the remake, even though the ending annoys the crap out of me. The mail was important, dammit.

Okay, I’m not sure I should admit this and I’m not sure how it possibly happened but…

I don’t think I’ve ever seen White Christmas.

Huh.

Added it to my grocery list. (You know, the necessities.)

Annmarie, Christmas categories are my favoritest romances, too. Happy sighs all around.

Let’s see…also in no particular order…

Christmas Carol with Alastair Sim (the very best of all of them)
NL’s Christmas Vacation
Scrooged
Charlie Brown Christmas
White Christmas
It’s a Wonderful Life
Muppet Christmas Carol
Ebbie (cheesy and yet, always makes me cry)
Home Alone
Holiday in Handcuffs (which is also really cheesy, but cute)
The Santa Clause
Die Hard (don’t ask)
The original Miracle on 34th Street

There’s a couple others I can’t think of. I have most of these on DVD, much to the DH’s chagrin since there are a couple he’d just as soon never watch again

I also don’t own It’s A Wonderful LIfe and couldn’t possibly buy it. I must see it on TV. Weird, huh? But I do own A Christmas Story and will watch the DVD, but also watch it while it runs on a loop endlessly between Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. Also weird.

I love Love Actually and White Christmas, two of my absolute faves that I must see during the season. And of course A Christmas Carol…the old black and white versions though I think George C Scott did a great one too. Christmas Vacation is always a must. So is Christmas with the Kranks…hysterical.

I’ll pretty much watch almost any Christmas movie….just gets me into the spirit.

White Christmas is my favorite of all time Christmas movies. I own it. I’ve loved it since I was a little girl. *happy sigh*

PS: Christmas Categories are my most favorite of categories!

Only one? Uh-huh.

In no particular order:

WHITE CHRISTMAS
MUPPETS’ CHRISTMAS CAROL
HOME ALONE
IT’S A WONDERFUL LIFE
NAT’L LAMPOON CHRISTMAS VACATION

Oh, and not a movie, but the season’s not complete without Charlie Brown.
