So what are yall's favorite holiday theme movies? I agree that most of them are crap, but there are some that are good and enjoyable to watch, here's my list.

Nightmare Before Christmas

Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer

A Christmas Story

and for the last one, I'll have to do some explaining.

It's a Wonderful Life.

Now I hate this movie, but my mom watches it every year, Hell she has it on tape and we watch it every year. However, two years back, me, my dad, brother, and my two brother in laws started making fun of this movie while my mom watches it. We do it MST3K Style.

It's a Crappy Life

George Bailey: [yelling at Uncle Billy] Where's that money, you silly stupid old fool? Where's that money? Do you realize what this means? It means bankruptcy and scandal and prison. That's what it means. One of us is going to jail - well, it's not gonna be me.

"I've already been to jail, and well there's this guy that I spent the night with, and I haven't written to him, and yea..."

Nick: [slamming a bottle on the bar] That's it. Out you two pixies go - through the door, or out the window.

"We only serve people who are faeries or bigger!"

Clarence: Strange, isn't it? Each man's life touches so many other lives. When he isn't around he leaves an awful hole, doesn't he?

Yea, and the bastard refuse to fix up the hole, and guess who has to fix it!"

Just some of the thing we say. :D

I love MST3K. I never get a chance to riff (except occasionally) because my mom hates that kind of humor.

The Ref is by far the best holiday movie I've ever seen.

:p I was gonna say that, my family watches it every Christmas.

We also watch Home for the holidays every Thanksgiving.

I believe we have a standing tradition of watching all the Alien movies on New Years day, or it's worked out to that for the past 7 years.

We also have a cheese fest of "scary" movies on Halloween.

We used to watch Nosferatu on Easter.
It's kind of related to the holiday; both have resurrections.
