It may be predictable, but A Christmas Story. I grew up with it and the 24 hour marathon with my parents and for the most part we still keep the tradition alive with my family. Wrap gifts to it, open gifts to it, waiting to eat dinner and still watching it. Of course you only see snip its throughout the day so its not like I see it 20 times, but more likely around 4 times in a year.
The Man Who Invented Christmas has quickly become a favorite. I've always been a sucker for A Christmas Carol and love every iteration of it. Especially the Muppets and Scrooged. But this is a new take on it with the focus on the writing of the book. "And Tiny Tim who DID NOT die..."
I went into this expecting like a throwaway slapstick comedy but it's weirdly kinda deep and surrealist at times. Like just the shots alone and color scheme of the sets look crazy.

In no particular order:
Plus others, but those are the ones that tend to get played every year.
Tokyo Godfathers (2003) and The Muppet Christmas Carol (1992)
Die Hard
And Klaus.
Gundam wing: endless waltz
Dr. Seuss' How The Grinch Stole Christmas (2000)
I love The Man Who Invented Christmas, because I'm a sucker for Dan Stevens, and a follow up with The Muppets Christmas Carol is the best.
Die Hard and Violent Night
It'll always be Gremlins!
Gremlins 3 is in the works! 2027

National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation 1989
Legend 1985 Director's Cut
Conan the Barbarian 1982
+1 for Christmas Vacation
We watch it every year
Home Alone and The Santa Clause for the kids. Love Actually for the parents.
Home Alone 1&2, every year since I was four years old. I'm 38 now.
Shrek, unironically
Good choice. It has layers.
I torrented Shrek in like quad audio, the Italian dub is pretty funny.
He's like "eyy donkeh, no bene!"
Scrooged.
Just so packed with knock out one-liners, plus the monologue Bill Murray gives at the end is incredible.
Classics:
How come no one says Die Hard 2?
That's also set on Christmas eve
If you saw Die Hard 2, you wouldn't ask that question.
Bad Santa
I went into this expecting like a throwaway slapstick comedy but it's weirdly kinda deep and surrealist at times. Like just the shots alone and color scheme of the sets look crazy.
best christmas movie ever
i love when he yells at that karen for interrupting his break
SANTA! [bangs head]
Emmett Otter's Jugband Christmas!
It's time for me to break out my River bottom Nightmare Band metal logo T-shirt
This is a great one. It’s been in our holiday movie rotation for years and it’s always a hit.
One modern one that deserves a mention: 8-Bit Christmas.
That one will likely stick around for us. So well done.
Blood Sucking Freaks

Jingle all the way!
Die Hard
The Last Unicorn
Weird mix. No, I don't know either why these two.
The Polar Express is the only one I usually watch for Christmas. I don't watch a ton of holiday movies but that one brings back memories as a kid.
Kindergarten cop. Arnold all the way, but also "jingle all the way"... with Arnold, f'course. PUT THAT COOKIE DOWN, NOW.
