My list:

1. A Christmas Story (1983)



2. Die Hard (1988)



3. Bad Santa (2003)



4. Christmas Vacation (1989)



5. Gremlins (1984)



Most of my list are 80's movies which was sadly before my time. What about you?

The only one I watch every year is Christmas Vacation. I like Die Hard (and DH2) but find it difficult to classify as a "Christmas movie"

ETA: On the topic of Die Hard, Die Hard with a Vengeance is the best

Are you kidding? It's the best action packed Christmas movie ever. Go back and watch Die Hard(1) again. Plenty of Christmas-y stuff in it.

I consider Die Hard a Christmas movie (it has as much (if not more) to do with the holiday than the classic It's A Wonderful Life). It just doesn't come to mind as quickly because of the violence, I guess.

In no particular order:

Scrooged
Christmas Vacation
Rise of the Guardians
Elf
Home Alone

But I like more than 5 so:
Die Hard
A Charlie Brown Christmas
Home Alone
A Christmas Story
Dr. Suess's How the Grinch Stole Christmas
Jack Frost
Polar Express

I'm sure there are others I'm not thinking of..

I suppose you're right. It just doesn't feel Christmas-y to me- maybe because it hasn't been tradition for my family to watch it at Christmas

Do you just happen to like watching this during Christmas time?

Don't get me wrong, it's a great movie, but does it have anything to do with Christmas?

Ditto. I didn't see it until I was a teenager.

I'll watch DH any time of year, too--I don't do that with the other Christmas movies. There's something to be said for the tradition
