After spending time with family and friends, stuffing myself with thanksgiving leftovers and just shopping till I drop. There's a time where we need to take a break thank god for his mighty blessings as well as enjoy a good holiday flick. Here are my top 10 holiday flicks that have some theme for the holidays.
10. Die Hard.....I know it's action pack film, but it happens during Christmas time and it made Bruce Willis a star.
9. Scrooged....Bill Murray playing a modernization of this classic tale....still gets a chuckle
8. The Grinch that stole Christmas....Jim Carrey plays excellent Grinch that nobody could hardly recognize him.
7. Jingle all the way....Anytime you do a comedy about black Friday and finding the right toy with a little element of truth gets my vote. Although Arnold and Sinbad couldn't act worth darn.
6. Miracle on 34th street....the black and white version not the newer one.
5. National lampoon's Christmas...Anytime you get Chevy chase involving Christmas lights that are overpowering your going to laugh.
4.Elf....I saw this in the movie theater when it first came out and now it's become a classic. Not the biggest will Ferrell fan, but he does make you laugh. Also having a comedy legend like bob Newhart doesn't hurt either
3.Planes, trains, and automobiles...probably my all time favorite comedy taking place during thanksgiving time...Steve Martin and John Candy worked so well together too bad they didn't make another film together....So many zingers and too many too count.
2.It's a wonderful life....I think this film relates to so many people where at one time or another we have had family problems, financial problems and bosses we don't like and yet somewhere out there were trying to do right thing.
1. A Christmas story....When your movie is shown on Christmas day 24hrs your a classic. The 1940's story reminds me of Christmas's past and going to malls to see window displays that delight any 10 year old. It never gets old
I'm sure I forgot some, but hey this my list feel free comment any other holiday films.
