Default Favorite Christmas Movies/Specials, what's your?

I was sitting here watching Christmas Vacation on AMC for the 2nd night in a row since they are having 5 nights of Christmas Vacation and realized it is bar none my favorite Christmas movie. I remember having to beg my parents to let me stay up late to watch it on school nights when it was on TV.

Garfields Christmas & Muppets Christmas Carol are up there too, but its hard to beat the Griswold family.

I've gotta go with Christmas Vacation.

While Christmas shopping, I use the "It wouldnt be the holiday season if the stores were any less hooter-HOTTER than they are!" line almost hourly.

All the above posters should be banned for failing to mention anything involving the Muppets.
