Merry Merry Movie Guide

'Tis the season for viewing all of your favorite holiday movies! Toss in a couple of those [mostly ridiculous] made-for-TV gems, for good measure, and you have yourself one heck of a holly jolly film fest.

Here are the ones I try not to miss:

1.   It's a Wonderful Life (1946)

2.   Elf (2003)

3.   Miracle on 34th Street (1947) - And while I don't LOVE the 1994 remake, I will watch it when it's on.

4.   A Christmas Story (1983)

5.   How the Grinch Stole Christmas (2000)

6.   Home for the Holidays (1995)

7.   Home Alone (1990)

8.   How the Grinch Stole Christmas! (TV 1966) - The original cartoon.

9.   National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation (1989)

10. A Charlie Brown Christmas (TV 1965)

Ho-Ho-Honorable Mention: Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer (TV 1964), Frosty the Snowman (TV 1969), Meet Me in St. Louis (1944), Mickey's Christmas Carol (1983), The Kid Who Loved Christmas (TV 1990), Love Actually (2003), The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993), While You Were Sleeping (1995), Holiday Affair (TV 1996).

  1. Hmmm...hard to add to a complete list. I'll just go ahead and pick my faves: 4, 7, & 9. I'm hoping for something fra-gee-lay for Christmas this year.
