    14 Call Me Claus (2001) (CMT on 12/13/12) :star: As much as I liked Whoopie Goldberg, most of her movies suck big time. This one is no exception. I know I'm in the minority but I just couldn't develop any affection for it and for me was a waste of time. 15 The Christmas Gift (2009) ( Fam on...

    12 The Case for Christmas (2011) ( Bravo on 12/12/12) :star::star: Suppose to be an updated version of Miracle on Thirty- fourth Street but lacking the magic and charm of that movie. Still not without its good points. 13 Christmas Magic (2011) (Bravo on 12/13/12) :star::star::half: Overly...

    Elf (2003) :star::star::star::half: I like Will Ferrell a lot. He's charming and very personable on screen but man do most of his movies suck. This one is one of his better ones. It's funny, engaging with a charming story and that's a win in my books. Bad Santa (2003) :star::star::star: I...

    It's a Wonderful Life (1946) :star::star::star::star::star: Not too much to say about this one. It's an annual Christmas viewing and just about perfect in every way. I've enjoyed most everything that Jimmy Stewart has done but this movie is probably my favourite of his. Nothing Like the...

    John, Congrats on the new addition. Christmas with the Kranks (2004) :star::star: Not a fan of this movie. Kind of mean spirited and not something that I like watching at this time. Still there was a couple of really enjoyable scenes, for example when the neighbours across the street were...

    Oh, heck, I'm in. I have hardly anything Christmas related but maybe I have more than I think. I have Miracle on 34th Street and Christmas Vacation of course. I think there is one Supernatural and a couple of X-files that are Christmas related so I have those. I'll have to go through my library...
