Nightmare Before Christmas is always a seasonal favorite, as is A Muppet Christmas Carol.

Worst ones... I really can't stand any of the old stop-motion claymation ones. Really just can't take those. Sorry.

^ You don't like National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation? I liked it when I was a kid, dunno if it holds up.

I thought Scrooged was pretty mediocre honestly. I liked National Lampoon though.

Favorites:
Elf
A Christmas Carol (various versions)
How the Grinch Stole Christmas

Least Favorite:
A Christmas Story

A Christmas Story may not be the worst, but I just really don't care for it, and I can't just avoid it like the others because some of my in-laws seem to consider it required viewing around Christmas.

I actually like Jingle All The Way, just for being a campy Schwarzenegger movie.
