Not only is Chitty Chitty Bang Bang the best Christmas film, it the best film ever. End of. No further discussion required. Close the thread. Don't want to hear another word. I have spoken.

I'm not knocking Chitty Chitty Bang Bang... but how is it a Christmas film?

Because when I was young it was always shown around christmas time, amd often still is.

doesn't count in my book... much as i love it, it aint no christmas movie, along with The Wizard of Oz, The Sound of Music and Bladerunner

I do not like xmas films, but when I am off work I always make a point of watching at least 1 classic video nasty. Dawn Of The Dead (original) this year I think.

That could work as a Crimbo film given the satire on consumerism and commercialisation... I'll get me Winter coat.

NIghtmare before Christmas is the best - end of..

Chitty can go whistle ; and it may well be a wonderful life, but it's a crappy film

 

[Get In The Van]

Best Christmas film is without a doubt 'Christmas Vacation'.

For the kids it's got to be Elf with Miracle on 34th street a close second.
We also love A wonderful Life, definitely better in black and white.
I only saw Bad Santa for the first time last year - hilarious.

NBC is a great film but IAWL is not crappy and you're a big poo face for saying it is.

Home Alone

Mark secretly has fantasies about being home alone with McCauley Culkin, and is still green with envy at that Michael Jackson guy.

....Oh sorry, wrong thread.
