I won't reproduce it here, but I have a list of Christmas movies here. Not all of them are Christmas-y movies, but all of them have a Christmas connection. Some, especially the older ones, are available online.
We have a lot of DVDs and CDs here:
We've been accumulating for years but have begun the process of letting go faster than we add to the collection.

Wow, what a huge collection of Christmas movies you have 😁. We have a collection of Christmas movies too which we watch every year, not quite as many as you though ...lol 😉. I always watch Holiday Inn and one of my favourites which I don't see on your list is "The most wonderful time of the year" from 2008 originally from the Hallmark Card channel. The storyline tells about how a snow-bound stranger (Warren Christie) brightens the holidays for a retired police officer (Henry Winkler) and his niece (Brooke Burns). I also like "12 Men of Christmas" from 2009. Now I'm wondering what your "must see" Christmas movies are, do you have a Top 10? Thanks for sharing your wonderful list. Happy Friday and Weekend! J 😊
ReplyDeleteI don't usually watch the Hallmark channel Christmas shows, I'll have to admit. I spent decades watching the same Christmas movies every year, and there are some of them which are definitely top 10 but which I just won't be ready to re-watch for a long time to come. Right now I'm favoring Shop Around the Corner, Christmas Story, Polar Express, George C. Scott/Alister Simm/Muppet Christmas Carol movies, We're No Angels (1954), Bishop's Wife, Christmas in Connecticut, Bells of St. Mary's....
DeleteI have "The Most Wonderful Time of the Year" on DVD, not sure what the Hallmark Channel is like as we don't get it here, I can imagine though and probably wouldn't watch it either ...lol 😁. Thanks for your Top Picks! I haven't got some of these so will take a look to see if I can get them on DVD 😁. Happy Christmas movie watching my friend! Thanks again! J 😊 x
DeleteThe Hallmark Channel has a website http://www.hallmarkchannel.com/christmas where you can see all their offerings for this year as well as their movies from the past. They've been showing Christmas movies since before Thanksgiving, I think lol. Each of the movies (including "The Most Wonderful Time of the Year") has its own page so you can see if it's to your taste. I know a lot of people who just keep this channel on during the season. They're sick of the news ;)
Deletelove this..we always watch 'meet me in St. Louis and 'little women' the one with Elizabeth Taylor in it. Also 'Cheaper by the dozen' (1950)
ReplyDeleteI hadn't thought of the last one you name as a Christmas movie, and had forgotten all about the first one. I need to go edit my list. Thx :)
DeleteMeet Me in St. Louis was on the list already, but I haven't written a blog post about it so it must've been many a year since I last saw it. I need to try to watch it again.
DeleteThe Hallmark Channels (both) started playing Christmas movies the day after Thanksgiving. I am SO tired of Christmas movies. Of course, they are NOT the ones like what you are watching. I must check out a few. One thing I've tried to get me in the "mood" for Christmas is play Christmas music I love. Thanks for sharing YOUR list. Mine would be extremely short!
ReplyDeleteThe Hallmark channel movies seem so sweet to me lol, and I don't watch them. I keep Christmas music going all the time. I try to find some new things every year.
DeleteI always watch It's A Wonderful Life and A Christmas Story. I have those and Polar Express--but I don't always watch Polar Express because it's rather dark. That's the extent of my Christmas movie collection--LOL! ;)
ReplyDeleteI don't like It's a Wonderful Life, but I love the other 2 you mention. We find comfort in the fact that the bell still rings for us :)
DeleteI some of my favourites in your collection. I do watch It's A Wonderful Life, but I am not sure I agree that George Bailey had a wonderful life ...but that's a discussion for another day.
ReplyDeleteThe true believers can't understand why that Wonderful Life horrifies me lol
DeleteWe have quite a few holiday movies too. The hubby isn't too fond of them as he says he's seen them all before. Guess he doesn't have a favorite. I'm a fan of the old Bing crosby ones-Holiday Inn and White Christmas. But you have to admit, National lampoon's Christmas vacation is pretty crazy. Hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteI agree with your husband that there are only so many times I can watch the same movie,. and even once a year -after decades- can be too much lol. I like White Christmas but not Holiday Inn, and I've never seen National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation. That's a definite hole in my watching history.
