What, no Reindeer Games!?

I had my Christmas movie tradition again this year. The Ref, Scrooged, Christmas Vacation, Bad Santa, Santa's Slay and Silent Night, Deadly Night. Only two of mine are on the list.

Watch at your own risk!

It's not that bad, I'd say it's worth a rental. Although I saw it at Moviestop the other day for $1.99, disc only.

Secretagentnumber6 · 12-25-2009, 03:47 PM

I disagree, I blind bought Reindeer Games when it first was out on DVD. One of the big blind buy mistakes for me.

quirkmanly · 12-25-2009, 03:48 PM

Mine would be:

1 - A Christmas Carol (1951)
2 - It's a Wonderful Life
3 - Scrooge (Albert Finney)
4 - National Lampoons Christmas Vacation
5 - Joyeux Noel
6 - Home Alone
7 - Trapped in Paradise
8 - Just Friends
9 - A Miracle on 34th Street (Original)
10 - Scrooged

Now I'll have to rent it for sure! Something about a bad movie that's kind of appealing. Maybe good for a laugh! LOL

How can you not include Bad Santa?

Beast · 12-25-2009, 04:21 PM

beefytwinkie · 12-25-2009, 04:54 PM

A Christmas Story is my favorite. Every bit of that movie to me is wonderful. A Christmas Carol with Alastair Sim comes in at a distant second.

The one movie I never really cared for is It's A Wonderful Life. The movie is good but I just never got into it.

MaCruz · 12-25-2009, 04:59 PM

No Jingle All the Way?

Psychonaut · 12-25-2009, 05:14 PM

I'd go with A Christmas Story as my fav. I hav a lot of memories years ago that go with it and not one year passes that I don't see at least most of it.

JJ · 12-25-2009, 05:35 PM

Die Hard, Home Alone, a Christmas Story are my picks.

Steelmaker · 12-25-2009, 05:54 PM

Home Alone at #10 is blasphemy. They made up for it (somewhat) by putting A Christmas Story at #3, though. That's definitely a solid list all the way around; I would just order the movies differently.

I'm really puzzled as to "How the Grinch Stole Christmas!" didn't crack the top 10 list. Talk about a major oversight.

It's too hot to discuss Christmas.

btw....Bad santa is a great movie, but not a top 10.
