Oh, yeah, and A Charlie Brown Christmas (see avatar). ;)
It's a Wonderful Life is my favorite Christmas movie.
We love all of the classics and try to watch as many as we can but we really love the Home Alone movies (mostly the first two). We also love the Santa Clause movies.
Every Christmas Day DH insists that we watch the 24 hours of a Christmas Story all day long!!! We all jokingly complain but it has become a tradition and we really love it.
All my favorites have been mentioned already, with the exception of one. The 1984 production of A Christmas Carol starring George C. Scott as Scrooge. IMHO, this is the best version ever done. The wonderful english town it was filmed in, the costumes & casting, and George's over-the-top performance. I look forward to it every year.:santa3:
As wonderful as this version is I prefer the Allister Simm version. He is Scrooge IMO.
Anyways.....
I love It's A Wonderful Life, but with the invention of the VCR and now DVD'S and Blue Ray these specials have lost a little luster.
When I was a kid you could only see these specials once a year. Now you can see them any time you choose if you own them.
During the 90's I began collecting all of the Rankin/Bass specials. I think I have them all....Not the animated ones, but the stop motion animation ones. Do you remember the rare ones?
