Is there any better way to spend the holiday season than to snuggle up and watch some festive movies? Whether you like Christmas or hate this time of year, I suggest catching up on some of these holiday classics. There are some really great holiday movies out there. Here are just a few of my favorites!
8. "The Santa Clause"
Whether you like the first, second or third "The Santa Clause," these movies are classics. Tim Allen stars in this hilarious movie about becoming Santa. If you haven't seen these movies, you should definitely incorporate them into your next movie night.
7. "Miracle on 34th Street"
I watched this (short) movie for the first time this Christmas season. I enjoyed
6. "A Year Without Santa Claus"
5. "Elf"
Everyone knows the movie, "Elf." It is a quirky, funny flick that really captures the Christmas spirit at its finest. Though it is a bit overplayed, it is still one of my favorite movies. It seems to have become too mainstream within the last couple of years.
4. "A Charlie Brown Christmas"
This movie says a lot without saying much at all. This is another classic that I'm sure most everyone has seen, but it's still is one of my all-time favorites!
3. "Christmas Vacation"
Whether it be the giant Christmas tree, the malfunctioning lights or the quirky family, this movie has been one of my favorites since I was a young kid! It is a classic must-see for the holiday season.
2. "Dr. Seuss' How The Grinch Stole Christmas"
"The Grinch" is a classic movie during the Christmas season. I love the more recent version from 2000. All of the holiday cheer and the fun styles that "the Whos" wear really add to the movie. The Grinch himself is pretty hilarious, too. You learn to love his loathing with every little comment he makes.
1. "The Polar Express"
My all-time favorite Christmas movie has to be "The Polar Express." Although the movie seems a little dark at times, I love the fact that you get to leave certain parts to your imagination. I believe that everyone who watches this movie thinks of it in different ways and, to me, that is super cool. And, let's be honest, the songs are pretty great, too!
Christmas is quickly on its way! Spend a weekend catching up on these holiday classics to get you in the spirit of the season. Who knows, maybe they'll become some of your favorites, too.
