Oh my goodness, Gremlins totally rules all. I was so obsessed with that movie when I was a kid. It's been a while since I've last seen it, so I guess I have to add it to my movie night lineup.
Bad Santa, by far. Nothing short of a complete pervision of what Christmas's made up to be and a hysterical one at that. This one's overflowing with unforgettable lines/gags and never gets old. Best Christmas movie ever IMO and one of my top favorite comedies.
This is really hard; I don't think I can say I have a favorite. I'll just name off some that come to mind as memorable.
As other people have said, "Christmas Vacation" seems to be unforgettable. I also have a fondness for "Home Alone".
"I'll Be Home For Christmas" also struck a chord for me. And I also really liked "Jingle all the Way." The idea of grown ups fighting over a toy in the last moments before Christmas may sound wild, but I'll tell you-- I've seen this kind of crazed behavior. It wasn't that long ago really that in Vancouver, B.C., people were going wild for Cabbage Patch dolls.
There was an incidence on the news about two women who had gotten into a fight over one!?!
You know what, after giving it some thought, I would really have to say that "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" based upon Dr. Seuss' story has to be one of my favorites.
The beauty of this one is how the story is brought to life through the video medium. Jim Carey works The Grinch character and plays him up to the hilt. And I can't say enough about the sound track.
