Its a Wonderful Life - Christmas eve mince pies at the GFT, only way to do it!

National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation - Chevy Chase, Randy Quaid and Christmas, how could it fail? That's the sort of family Christmas I aspire to.

Nightmare Before Christmas is brilliant, but doesn't feel like a Christmas film to me - maybe because my kids insist on watching it all year round.

hmmmm not seen its a wonderful life, was thinking of a different film completely... the one with the waiter and the nazis.

La vita è bella or Life is beautiful is the one you were thinking about

Yes and Jamie Lee Curtis gave me two lovely presents the first time I watched that film.

Seriously - yes it was, starts with Eddie Murphy begging in the snow, and towards the end it is New Year's Eve on the train.

Die Hard.

+1, also definitely a Christmas film, it's got Christmas music in it. And the words "Ho ho ho".

Isn't the animation in that really freaky though? It's a good illustration of the realism/ freakiness curve that Japanese robot designers have drawn up.

Bad Santa. And Trading Places.
