Yes, yes, it's still only November but very interested to know what your favourite Christmas movies are?
Would it be a classic (It's a Wonderful Life), a more modern film (Love Actually) or a more offbeat choice (Die Hard)?

Other Christmas films I love:
The Nightmare Before Christmas
Jingle All The Way
Scrooged
Home Alone 2
Home Alone 2
Gremlins
Jingle All the Way
The Santa Clause
Die Hard 1 & 2
Christmas Carol
Jingle all the way (Went to cinema to see it)
Also really like The Nightmare Before Christmas, The Grinch, Die Hard, Bad Santa, It's A Wonderful Life and Miracle on 34th Street. (the original. I've yet to see the remake, though I want to.)
Elf (mmmm.. Zooey Deschanel)
Here in the US, this is the film that basically kicks off the holiday season (for literally decades now). Like clockwork, this film always airs in the late morning hours on Thanksgiving day. It also airs on Christmas morning as well. I grew up watching it and will continue to do so for as long as they continue the tradition.
2) Scrooge
This Albert Finney musical is terrific.
Gremlins 1 & 2
Christmas with the Kranks
Die Hard 2
Miracle on 34th Street (both versions)
Santa Claus (Dudley Moore)
The Santa Claus (Tim Allen)
Bad Santa
White Christmas (Bing Crosby & Danny Kaye)
Scrooged (Bill Murray)
Home Alone 1 & 2
I'm not really a fan of It's A Wonderful Life or the original Holiday Inn but I still watch them just because they're Christmas Movies
Scrooged
Home Alone
Jingle All The Way
Deck The Hall
The Polar Express
In Bruges
It's a Wonderful Life
Home Alone
Elf
Scrooged
And the best...The Muppet Christmas Carol
Home Alone 1/2
Classic Christmas epics
I saw it originally in the cinema,and like others have said I try and watch it every Christmas
Also over the last couple of years (since I got hold of a copy of it) I have watched The Woman In Black either Christmas Eve night or one of the nights leading up to it.
It reminds me of being a kid back in 1989 when it was originally broadcast and peering over the top of a Great Universal/Janet Frazer catalogue (where I was looking excitedly at the toys I was getting in the morning) scared witless :eek:
The Muppet's Christmas Carroll
Jingle All The Way
Home Alone
Gremlins
Bad Santa
Scrooged with Bill Murray
Die Hard.
National Lampoons Christmas Vacation
Also love Home Alone 1 & 2 and Love Actually (usually try to watch it on Christmas Eve).
I watch Trading Places & Die Hard so often I don't really think of them as Christmas movies any more, sadly.
Muppets Christmas Carol
Die Hard
Black Christmas
Gremlins
Miracle on 34th Street (I prefer the B&W version, but Attenborough's is Ok)
A Christmas Carol (I like the Patrick Stewart/Richard E Grant version)
