No one has mentioned any of the Christmas Carol films? This is the most remade movie in history!

I will watch both 1951's (Alastair Sim) and 1984s (George C Scott) versions every year. So, my top four:

Christmas Carol (2 versions, 1951-1984 counting as one)
White Christmas (Kaye, Clooney, Ellen, and Der Bingle)
A Charlie Brown Christmas (Schultz)
Miracle on 34th St (1947)

Since this is the Jingle All The Way forum, let me add that I love this movie along with most the previous posters mentioned.

It’s A Wonderful Life
Jingle All the Way
National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation
The Santa Clause

I usually watch at least one of the Home Alone movies around this time of year as well and at least one adaptation of Christmas Carol (usually the 1984 version). I used to watch A Christmas Story a lot but it’s become too annoying with how much it’s played and the mainstream commercialization the film has undergone (eg lame t-shirts, leg lamp decorations in every store).
