For my money’s worth, this is probably the best Christmas movie to come out since Elf.
Easy to watch, great holiday feel and beautiful animation.
The Christmas Chronicles- To be frank, I’m not a huge fan of this movie.

However, people seem to love it so I’ve come to accept I’m in the minority.
Regardless of my distaste for it, Kurt Russell is a good Santa.
I’ll always stand up for Cage, though.
Hot Frosty- This is a BAD movie.
But it is so bad that it’s almost kind of fun to watch and make fun of.
Christmas Vacation -One of the all time classics that still holds up today.
Just rewatched it last night and it’s crazy how much more you sympathize with Clark with age.
A Christmas Story -People have made a bit out of hating this movie as a contrartian bullshit thing.
This is a very good slice of americana that hits like a warm slice of apple pie this season.
The Polar Express- I still find this animation style a little creepy but this undeniably captured the christmas spirit.
Elf- No need to pitch the best Christmas movie of the last 20 years.
Christmas Vacation- I’m not gonna recommend non-classics just because I already recommended these on Max.

Santa Claus is Coming To Town- Of all the Rankin/Bass movies, this is my favorite.
Fred Astaire narrating, Mickey Rooney as Santa, stopmotion kids fighting against the tyrrany of the Burgermeister Meisterbuger.

Love Actually- This movie is like, the British Avengers.
It’s A Wonderful Life- Another all time classic that needs no introduction.
I’m well overdue for a rewatch and you probably are too.
