    Really Cheesy, but original ( 1938) film of "A Christmas Carol " is good.

    Epitome of Christmas really, it was Dickens who started the whole "Merry Christmas" thing too;

    There was a film made, just in the last year or 2 called The Man Who Invented Christmas about Dickens & the story/inspiration behind A Christmas Carol and it is woven through. Has a decent cast and might be worth you checking out if you're interested in that. :)

    Watching the Harry Potter series has become a bit of a Christmas tradition for some people, but it might be too much of a stretch to call them Christmas films.

    Bumping this with a couple of old classics, sat through one of them last night for the first time in years and it reminded me of the other, because of the one and only Jimmy Durante.

    The Man Who Came to Dinner
    The Great Rupert

    Nominations close tomorrow evening, after which people can begin voting, so if there are any Holidays themed movies, Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years etc, get them in. They don't have to just be Christmas, just that they are the most common.
