THE ultimate Christmas Eve movie?


I hope people agree with me but this is one of the best seasonal films to watch and I always watch it with my family every year at around 4 oclock on Christmas Eve, it's the final thing that prepares you for Christmas Day. I must say it is the ultimate Christmas Eve movie.

i agree, this is the best christmas movie ever made!!! i bought it yesterday and gonna watch it tonight!

I watch it on Christmas morning. If I'm the only one up and it's early..I pop it on. God, great movie.

I usually watch this on the runup to Christmas. On Christmas Eve I usually watch It's a Wonderful Life or something.

Ah, Christmas. The one time of the year I endorse tradition.

Why, it's that delightful TV leprechaun. I'm going to get your Lucky Charms.*drills*

reply

It's maybe not the most traditional choice, but this has always been my favourite Christmas movie.

It's amazing :P I love Michael Caine as Scrooge. He's wonderful.

I always tell the truth, even when I lie.

reply

yes! yes! i've watched this film every year before christmas since i can remember, it's so amazing! No matter how many times I watch it, it never fails to cheer me up, put me in a christmas spirit and make me cry (when tiny tim is singing bless us all *awwwwww*)

Me and my boyfriend have a dvd-a-thon on christmas eve which includes Scrooged, The grinch that stole christmas, gremlins, elf and muppets christmas carol. Muppets christmas carol is always the last one we watch because it's the best!!!!!

reply

This one and A Nightmare Before Christmas are to me the ultimate christmas movies.

And for some reason, the first godfather movie. Don't ask me why.

In case you're still unaware, you and your boyfriend don't have a dvd-a-thon on christmas eve: you have a dvd-a-thon on christmas eve. Your boyfriend grits his teeth and agonizes through every minute of those Christmas movies targeted at eight year olds.

My family always watchs this film around Christmas.

reply

It's definatly my favorite christmas eve movie, but my family always wants to watch its a wonderful life chistmas eve night instead (i'm the dark horse in my family... i don't like it's a wonder ful life).

reply

I can never understand why people watch its a wonderful life. I think i missed the point of it because i keep thinking that its a film about a guy who is being persuaded not to commit suicide and abandon his children!

reply

I utterly agree....somehow a mini Kermie as Tiny Tim breaks my heart even more! This and National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation are my faves!

reply

i watch it every christmas eve since i was like 7 with all my borthers and sisters...tradtion <3

reply

Christmas Day is also a great time to watch it.

reply

My mum and I always sit down every Christmas Eve and watch both this and Miracle on 34th Street (the one with Richard Attenborough). Is there anything better than all cuddling up on the settee to watch Muppet's Christmas Carol and having a good sing-song?!!! (or maybe that's just me!) Definitely has to be one of the best Christmas Eve films ever! :)

Despite my privileged upbringing, I'm actually quite well-balanced.I have a chip on both shoulders.

reply

i have to watch this movie on christmas eve... i have been doing so since it was released. and im now 21... its the only film that gets me in the mood for christmas without fail...
