Yeah, I left off some of the Winnie the Pooh ones and Veggie Tales Christmas Star DVD. I also didn't list ones like Die Hard or Leathal Weapon. Sure they take place at Christmas, but I don't really consider them Christmas movies :smirk:

Watching 'Jingle All the Way' on blu-ray. We got Sinbad to sign our 'cover' for our DVD of the movie a couple of years back. BTW, am I the only one with an INSANE amount of Christmas movies? Lol.

I watched A Miracle on 34TH street for the 1st time in my life this weekend and thought the end didn't do the movie justice. I guess I was expecting more. I can't believe I'm 31 and had never seen this before.

1.) DieHard

2.) National Lampoons X-mas vacation

3.) Ирония судьбы (very popular Russian holiday movie!)

OMG I thought I was the only one that considered Die Hard the best holiday movie ever!
