I like the list. I love "Die Hard", but would have it third behind "Scrooge", definitely the 1951 Alistair Sim version. Also, I really love "A Charlie Brown Christmas", but it's not exactly a movie. Sales of fake Christmas trees plummeted the year or two after the release of it.

Linus sums it up in Charlie Brown Christmas. Charlie asks the question, "Isn't there anyone who knows what Christmas is about?" Linus recites from the 2nd chapter of the Gospel of Luke, verses 8 - 14, and then, picks up his blanket and tells Charlie Brown, "That's what Christmas is all about, Charlie Brown." Cartoon or not, that's hard to beat.

In 1949 Loretta Young was nominated for an Academy Award for Come to the Stable. This is a charmer - 2 French nuns arrive in the US to set up a children's hospital. Here's an example of how Hollywood could tell the true Christmas story in a modern setting. Highly recommend! Merry Christmas, Ramona (the Pest) ps I actually do like Elf...

I have to wonder if the author---clearly there was no proofing---has even seen some of the older of these. FTA: 'Taking to the role like a duck to water, Kris (John Payne) is offered a more permanent role as Santa in Macy’s on 34th Street.' Edmund Gwenn played Kris Kringle. And both pictures from 'Scrooge' are definitely NOT Alastair Sim. They're not even from that 1951 version, nor the 1938 MGM classic. Perhaps they are from the even older Seymour Hicks version. The image quality certainly suggests that.

I like Elf, but Gremlins on the list anywhere? And Christmas Story should be second. I have to agree on their choice for #1. And I posted here a slightly tongue in cheek commentary from Am Thinker a couple of days ago why "Die Hard" was a Christmas movie. Interesting to see that it is #2....which I think being above several others is a mistake. Maybe fifth. But Gremlins? I haven't seen it in so long that maybe I forget, but I didn't much like it the one time I saw it.

If u love old movies check out three of my favs: It Happened on Fifth Avenue Beyond Christmas aka Beyond Tomorrow and Shop Around the Corner. The latter was remade into You've Got Mail. Look for the repeated phrase "Perfect combination of poetry and meanness." Merry Christmas to all the faithful LDotters. :-)

The Shop Around The Corner is a very charming movie. And before 'You've Got Mail' it was remade as 'In The Good Old Summertime'. Judy Garland, who introduced 'Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas' in 'Meet Me In St. Louis' sings 'Merry Christmas'. It also features the most brilliant violin performance ever by a Hollywood actress, Marcia Van Dyke, in a musical highlight. For those 'Diehard' (LOL) Harry Potter fans, don't miss Saunders and French in 'Harry Potter and the Secret Chamberpot of Azerbaijan'.

I'm currently watching the 1947 version of Miracle on 34th Street. The 1994 version is also a favorite. Other favorites include: The Nativity Story, A Christmas Story, the George C Scott version of A Christmas Carol, Christmas Vacation, The Santa Clause, Home Alone, The Homecoming, The Bishop's Wife, and an old TV movie called The Gathering with Ed Asner. And you will NEVER convince me that Die Hard is a Christmas movie!! Even Bruce Willis stated that it wasn't! It is as much a Christmas movie as My Favorite Things is a Christmas song because it mentions in passing "brown paper packages tied up with string!!"

#15, you hate "It's a Wonderful Life?" Wow! I bet you hate baseball, hot dogs, apple pie, and Chevrolet, too. I'm a NJROTC instructor, and I show that movie to my kids every year - in black and white - for the strong suicide prevention message it has. Then we discuss it. The kids that have seen it the previous year ask me to show it again.

Rudolph wasn't a movie, it was a tv program, and I would put another tv program Charlie Brown higher than a few of the full-length movies on the list. How can anyone rate Diehard higher than Miracle on 34th street when in the minds of most people Diehard isn't a Christmas movie.

First of all, yes folks Die Hard is a Christmas movie but ranks lower than Miracle on 34th Street. I love both versions of that movie and make it a point to watch both versions every year. I love A Charlie Brown Christmas and like #5 said Linus sums it up to Charlie Brown. Growing up I remember how I could only watch A Christmas Story once in December now it's featured all day on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. That's awesome. As when they play Home Alone 1 & 2 back-to-back. Any version of A Christmas Carol I like but my all-time favorites are the ones with George C Scott and the musical with Kelsey Grammer. Plus, adaptations staring Mickey and the gang, the Muppets with Michael Caine as Ebenezer Scrooge and Bugs Bunny and the Looney Tunes. I also like other versions such as the one called Ms. Scrooge with the late Cicely Tyson and A Carol Christmas with Tori Spelling. Also, who can forget Scrooged with Bill Murray and Bobcat Goldthwait. My all-time favorite movie which didn't make the list with Scrooged is White Christmas with Bing Crosby, Danny Kaye and a very beautiful Rosemary Clooney. My favorite scene is when Bing and Clooney sing Count Your Blessings (Instead of Sheep). She sings it beautifully and there's no voice like his. Every year when the local radio station plays Christmas music, I make it a point to turn my radio up a notch when he sings White Christmas. I first saw the movie in first grade right before Christmas break and like I said it's been my favorite ever since. with It's A Wonderful Life second. I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas and I wish you all a Happy New Year. God Bless.

#21, well, there you go - a Christmas movie that is a training film, with three-quarters of the film being such a downer, you WANT to commit suicide. Pretty much a typical military training class.

“The Biden administration is importing millions of third-world immigrants to live here illegally, and at the same time telling them that white people are the source of their problems. How’s that going to work out in the end?” Tucker Carlson said. More than 10 million illegal aliens – mainly military-age men from Africa, Middle East and Latin America have invaded the US since Joe Biden was installed in January 2021. The illegal aliens are being told by the Democrat-media complex that white people – specifically white men – are the world’s problems.

If you find yourself on the same side as the cast members of ABC’s The View, they will bend over backwards to defend you (as NewsBusters’ 2023 retrospective showed). But if you find yourself opposing them, they will launch some of the most racist, bigoted, and hateful attacks on television against you. They will even support your death. And as tensions in America ratcheted up in 2023, so did their naked hatred. Their contempt for Republicans, pro-lifers, and white people flared on air often. So it was difficult to narrow things down.

The caravan is making its way north. In various parts of the journey, the migrants waved a banner with the caravan’s name and carried a white cross.

By now, most of us have seen the reluctant reporting from media outlets checking in with vehicle dealerships around the United States. Car lots are filled with electric vehicles, many with their original sales prices reduced. Most people simply aren’t interested in purchasing an EV despite any mandates being issued by state governments or the White House. There are various reasons for this, including the high cost of these vehicles (despite generous, taxpayer-funded rebates) and the uncertainty of there being sufficient charging stations to keep them running. Now Ford has seemingly woken up to the reality of the situation. In 2024, they will be drastically cutting their production
