Don't forget about Mr. Magoo's Christmas Carol- it's never on TV anymore. It may trigger blind people.

Only if they pretended to be “triggered”. Plus how would they know that Mr. Magog is anything less than 20/20? Your point is well taken though. Thankfully this thread wasn’t titled Holiday Songs. 🤣 Sent from my iPhone using Winnipesaukee Forum mobile app |

Holiday Inn
Little known fact: Irving Berlin's song 'White Christmas' was NOT debuted in the movie 'White Christmas', as logically thought; but twelve years earlier in the movie 'Holiday Inn', when it won the 1943 Academy Award for Best Original Song. Last edited by root1; 11-28-2023 at 05:27 PM. |

Christmas Vacation - #1
Muppets Christmas Carol - #2 Die Hard 1 and 2 - #3 I know, I know these aren't really Christmas movies, but they take place at Christmas time and therefor have become enshrined with Christmas. The Christmas Candle - #4 Released in (2013) I think it has a great story line, plus Samatha Barks looks pretty good in late 1800's attire. Rankin Bass Christmas movies - #5 There's 19 of them, from the 1st classic "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" released in 1964, to their last "Santa Baby!" released in 2001. Some are better than others, I haven't seen them all but it's a goal of mine, I have 6 to go. There's a bunch more I like but I'll stop here. |

Just had to chime in - I love all the classics mentioned! Plus more recent additions:
Elf - based in NYC - what more to bring back memories growing up in the Tri-City area! Prancer (1989) A farm girl nurses a wounded reindeer she believes is one of Santa's. - a heartfelt glimpse at a tough holiday, showing how family pulls tighter, no matter what the odds, to work it out. "Dad, are we going to starve?" "Heck no" says her apple orchard Dad, "We have apples...," as he grimly and viciously prunes the trees. |
