The original cartoon Grinch, not the Jim Carrey one.

All of the above named movies are excellent choice except for Bad Santa and the Grinch has to be the animated version. To that list I would add Miracle on 34th Street (older and newer version), Holiday Affair, most of the Hallmark Holiday/Christmas love stories, Elf isn't too bad and of course any of the Claymation movies from the late 50's early 60's like Rudolph, Frosty the Snow man and a slew of other great little films.

My favorite is The Christmas Story. After that one, I mostly like the older, traditional ones like It's a Wonderful Life, White Christmas type ones. I've never watched Scrooged or the Grinch movie, have watched and like the classic cartoon one. Bad Santa could have been better. I thought they tried too hard to make it the anti-Christmas movie that tries to be a Christmas movie. And believe it or not, I've not watched any of the Chevy Chase "Vacation" movies.

Holiday Inn is my favorite with the Bing Crosby and Fred Astaire combination developing the story over a series of holidays. This movie introduced Irving Berlin's "White Christmas" (won the Academy Award) and made Easter Parade a huge hit.
The emotional on again, off again, on again, etc. romance, culminated by a second rendition of White Christmas, did it for me.
They don't make 'em like that any more.

I like A Christmas Story. I have an autographed copy of the book that the movie is based on.

I'm always surprised by how many people haven't seen it. My wife, who loves Christmas movies, had never seen it. It's now her favorite. Hard to believe, but I can still remember reading Jean's book back in maybe 9th grade, then watching the movie a few years later and trying to remember where I had heard the stories, in the movie, from.
