No body knows this one. Santa and the three bears. It is awful but brings back warm holiday feelings! I found on dvd for like $2.00 a few years ago.

Thank you!!! I'll have to look that up. The kids watched it last night on my computer. The kids were mesmerized.

I also LOVE A Christmas Story. The kids are a bit young to watch it with us, but it's one of those movies I love.

And, not a Christmas movie in the traditional sense, but every year DH and I watch Die Hard on Christmas Eve while we wrap presents.

What was your favorite Christmas movie when you were a kid?

Oh, this is an easy one for me! Without a doubt, it would have to be "The House Without A Christmas Tree" circa 1972 starring Jason Robards and Lisa Lucas. I vividly remember watching this movie with my sister when I was a kid. The only other person that I know who remembers this movie, is my mother-in-law. She loves the movie so much, that I bought her a tape of it years ago as a Christmas present and she watches it every year.

It's definitely not a movie from my childhood, but DH and I watch National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation every year. It's probably the only holiday tradition that's really ours, and not a concession to one set of parents or the other.

Love Actually.

Way better than anything from my childhood.

Toss between the Grinch and Rudolph. Now a days, I'm partial to A Christmas Story. I lived on the street where it was filmed and work in Cleveland and would watch the filiming at Higbee's. Many of my friends and neighbors were extras in the movie. It's funny, the year the movie was made, it was probably the warmest it had ever been in Cleveland for a very long time. We had our doors open on Christmas day, the temps were something like 70 degrees. There definitely was no snow on the ground. The movie people had to blow snow in (like they do at the ski resorts) to cover the streets for the the movie.

The house in which the movie was filmed has been turned into a museum. Countless people visit it around the holidays. Unfortunately, the neighborhood isn't what it used to be, but it is nice to see a great tribute to the movie.

I liked Frosty the Snowman and Rudolph, but my favorite was the Wizard of Oz. It's not a Christmas movie, of course, but our local TV station used to play it every year on the afternoon of Christmas Eve, so I associate that movie with Christmas.

Amahl and the Night Visitors. We watched it every year for years.
