Christmas Movie Marathon: Can’t Miss Classics to Watch This Year

December 13, 2017 in Christmas, Holiday


If anyone noticed my recent actions this week, I’ve been watching a TON of Christmas favorites wit cocoa in hand. As the holidays are now in full swing, what better time to plan a movie marathon with your friends, family or even just yourself! Here’s a few of my favorites to watch this time of year.

  1. It’s a Wonderful Life – can’t beat one of the OG classics! This one will pick up your spirit if you haven’t been feeling it this season.
  2. White Christmas – I actually just saw this one in its entirety for the first time and loved it! So many great costumes and songs too!!
  3. Home Alone (1&2) – Ok, the third one isn’t terrible but it doesn’t have any of the original characters so I feel like it’s kind of it’s own thing. I love a good John Hughes movie – bias since born and raised in Chicago, but hey can you blame me?? This house actually exists in real life too – watch for a lot of Chicago Easter eggs (looking at you, Metra).
  4. Elf (duh)
  5. The Grinch (both versions) – Some people have mixed feelings about the Jim Carrey version but I think its hilarious, plus I love the song “Where Are You Christmas?” (listen to it via my holly jolly tunes list here). 
  6. All the Claymation stories (Frosty, Santa Claus is Coming to Town, Rudolph, etc) – If you haven’t watched any of these, do it right now! These have been going since my parents’ childhood and they are too cute to pass up.
  7. A Charlie Brown Christmas – My family and I try to watch as many of the Charlie Brown holiday specials as we can (Great Pumpkin, Thanksgiving) and they never disappoint. I’m sure you’ll get a smile out of Mom or Dad on this one.
  8. The Polar Express – If you love Tom Hanks, watch this. He plays like five different characters!
  9. The Santa Clause (1&2) – Again, the third is not my favorite so it was more of a one and done deal for me. The other two are pretty good though – Disney movies are always a win!
  10. A Christmas Story – Such a funny one, a little more PG than some of the others but sure to cue a laugh or two.
  11. National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation – I’ve seen the other two versions many times, but just watched this one for the first time recently and had to add it on.

 

Bonus: Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer The Movie, Babes in Toyland – I had to add these because #nostalgia and both are highly underrated. If you want to try a movie that’s stupidly funny and different from your usual pick, try these.

See you in the next post!
