> 1) The REF

The Ref. I have seen this one, actually, but it was a while back and I didn't recognize the quote. Nor does it quickly leap to mind when I think Christmas movies... so good, tricky choice.


> 2) Bad Santa

I caught this in bits and pieces last year on cable. I just laughed out loud when he started beating up those younger kids who were picking on the main kid. To few movies ever let the adults just beat the snot out of teens who deserve it.


> 3) Miracle on 34th street

Even after all these years, the resolution to this one is still genius.


> 4) Wonderful life

I always laugh because a guy I know came up to me, amazed, one Christmas after discovering how much there was to that movie before any of the famous scenes happened. "It's like there's a whole movie beforehand!"


> 5) Christmas Carol

You know, I tried to think of my favorite version of "A Christmas Carol", but I'm not sure I really like any of them enough to decide. I don't dislike the story, but maybe having heard it so often I just can't get drawn into any of the adaptations.

Athough I do get some chuckles out of "Scrooged".
