What are your favorite movies to watch around the holidays? I would have saved this thread for December but we're practically around this season already and I was wondering what movies you like to watch around Christmas time. I am thinking come Christmas week, I might watch the following:
-Die Hard
-Die Hard 2
-Lethal Weapon
-Reindeer Games
-The Long Kiss Goodnight
-Batman Returns (Maybe)
-Ghostbusters II (Maybe)
Of course, I'll watch a few Lifetime/Hallmark movies here and there, same with Home Alone 1 and 2. I might even watch Home For The Holidays or Mixed Nuts. I know that Christmas Vacation is one of the best Holiday themed/set comedies ever, so I might watch that as well.
So what do you like to watch around this time of the year?

The only one I try to watch every year is the Brady Bunch Christmas movie from 1988. I never get sick of it though the end is a bit silly.

Planes, Trains and Automobiles. Being an American Thanks-Giving movie it's the perfect way to kick off the holiday season.
Then its (in no particular order), The Muppet Christmas Carol, Scrooged, Both the Alister Sim and George C Scott versions of a Christmas Carol, Christmas Vacation, Elf, The Nightmare Before Christmas, Die Hard, Miracle on 34'th Street (1940's version, in B&W) and the MST3K versions of Santa Claus and Santa Claus Conquers the Martians.
