Question by smokemonsterjack: What are some good family Christmas movies or Christmas movies?
My mom loves Christmas movies so I was wondering if you could give me some recommendations of good Christmas movies to get for her. Nothing scary, I know there are scary ones out there. And no Die Hard type films please. Nice Christmas movies. They can be sad or happy. Thank you.

Best answer:

Answer by PJ1990
In my opinion:

National Lampoons Christmas Vacation
Jingle All The Way
How The Grinch Stole Christmas
Home Alone 1 and 2

Bad Santa is a great movie but it’s not a family movie. It’s pretty dirty. haha

    I like “Elf.” with Will Farrell. Also,”Scrooge” with Alistair Sim from 1951 is probably the best telling of the Christmas Carol. I you want to see an old one that is so bad that it is funny try “Santa Claus Conquers the Martians.”

    Nightmare before Christmas
    Miricle on 34th Street (the new version)
    Home Alone 1&2
    Four Christmases (Just released!)
    I’ll be Home for Christmas
    The Polar Express (VERY good animation)
    Love Actually (if you haven’t seen this one i recommend it A LOT)
    The Grinch
    The Santa Claus (the first one’s the only good one in my opinion)

    but i’m a sucker for the oldies even though i’m only 18 aha so my favourite OLD christmas movies are:
    Meet Me in St.Louis (my favourite)
    A Christmas Story
    Miricle on 34th Street (the one with Natalie Wood)
    It’s a Wonderful Life
    Dr.Suess’ How The Grinch Stole Christmas
    ALL the “claymation oldies” like Rodolph the Red Nose Reindeer, The Little Drummer boy etc.
    and then of course good ol’ A Charlie Brown Christmas
