ELF best christmas movie.....ever?

[cheezydemon3]

This turned out to be the least painful christmas movie I have to watch each year.

Definitely funny!!

 

[dataz722]

I can't stand will ferell. So I will have to say no.

 

[Scimmia]

I can't stand will ferell. So I will have to say no.

I agree completely.

 

[redraider629]

NL's christmas vacation is great too.

 

[sfbayjay]

+1 on that.

Elf is an excellent X-mas movie -- Will Ferrel is the bomb.

However, I have to at least nominate Christmas Vacation. An Xmas Eve screening is an annual tradition in our family.

"Halleluja, Holy S*&t! Where's the Tylenol?!"

 

[HoppyDaze]

the best Christmas movie by far is National Lampoons Christmas Vacation and its not even close

 

[Airborneguy]

I am a huge scrooge... my GF hates it, but honestly, come on! You are going to compare those movies to White Christmas? Miracle on 34th Street? Or the GREATEST CHRISTMAS MOVIE EVER, HANDS DOWN:

A Chistmas Story?

Heresy. National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation is tied with A Christmas Story for number one. Anyone who says It's a Wonderful Life should probably go find another thread to post in for a while.

*slinking out quietly*


However, I agree that A Christmas Story is way above anything but IAWL.

lol there's always one. (or two or three or ten)

Hey Shecky, nice sig quote by the way.

 

[arturo7]

Christmas Story

NLCV is a distant second.

WF should be taken out back and shot.

What can I say, I'm sappy. That and I think Jimmy Stewart is the best and Donna Reed had nice knockers.

Hey Shecky, nice sig quote by the way.

The man's a fountain of awesome.

WF should be taken out back and shot.

Heresy!!

 

[Edcculus]

Dude, Jingle All The Way by far. The Govenator, superheros, Christmas and Phil Hartman all rolled into one kickass movie.

 

[Lil' Sparky]

Christmas Vacation is awesome! I like watching Christmas Story every few years, but it gets tiresome.

I also thought The Santa Clause was brilliant.

Elf is good, but also tiresome in that annoying Will Ferrell kind of way.

Actually, my current favorite is Bad Santa.

 

[Julohan]

My favorite is A Christmas Story.

 

[BillyBeer]

1. Christmas Vacation
2. A Christmas Story
3. Scrooged
4. Die Hard - hey it was a Christmas Party.

 

[MultumInParvo]

My favorite is A Christmas Story.

That is my family's favorite. We love Elf too. Will Ferell is hilarious. How do people not like him?

 

[hal2814]

I was going to post Die Hard but someone beat me to it. Better Off Dead also counts in my book. But neither are as good as the best Christmas movie: Gremlins.

 

[Homercidal]

A Christmas story (Although I do get tired of ANY movie, so I may pass on this one this year)

NLCV is pretty good. I haven't seen it in a few years, so I think I'm due.

IAWL is just boring IMHO. I can appreciate it for what it is, but man it's long.

34th street. I have no idea. I am not sure I've seen more than 10 minutes of it.

ELF was entertaining, but just ok for me.

Bad Santa was very funny, but a bit rough at times. The backdoor scene in the changing room had me rolling.

 

[jgln]

Not a movie but I always enjoyed A Charlie Brown Christmas, a lot because of the music but a nice story too. I do get a bit tired of it though so if I miss a couple years it is more enjoyable. I also have fond memories of the old Rudolf the Red Nosed Reindeer with Burl Ives.

Sadly, IMO your choice of what are good Christmas movies often compares with your age. I liked ELF but to say the best of all time? Not for me. I like White Christmas (Holiday Inn) and The Bells of Saint Mary’s.

 

[uglygoat]

elf has the added benefit of zoe deschenale or whatever her name is.

Tried to watch it. Arny has lost his charm.

1. Christmas Vacation
2. A Christmas Story
3. Scrooged
4. Die Hard - hey it was a Christmas Party.

If die hard is a christmas movie, then so is gremlins!

I was going to post Die Hard but someone beat me to it. Better Off Dead also counts in my book. But neither are as good as the best Christmas movie: Gremlins.

Doh!lol.

Will Ferill sucks???

Have you seen "The Producers"? and............well...everything else he has done sucks, but ELF is awesome. Watch it again.

 

[the_bird]

Lorelai Gilmore takes it up the pooper. 'Nuff said.

 

[dataz722]

If die hard is a christmas movie, then so is gremlins!

I was about to say the same thing.

 

[cheezydemon3]

All I am going to say is.......YOU WATCH THE F**CKING GILMORE GIRLS???????

"I didn't $%!+ right for a week!"

 

[jkarp]

Actually, my current favorite is Bad Santa.

+1000

In fact, there are no other holiday movies shown at my house. Bad Santa is a Christmas Eve tradition.
