You’ve found your place and I like the way you live your mantra.

@ Jeffrey

I like the giving spirit — I find it uplifting.

You have a lot great classics here. My favorite is Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. At times I do feel like I am Rudolph and luckly I have found my place.

Thanks for sharing.

Imperfect Action is better than No Action

It sounds like a great all-star cast.

@ Hilary

I’m so glad that Dickens acted on his inspiration. It’s my favorite timeless tale of turnaround.

I’m amazed by so many cartoonists. One of my favorites is Chuck Jones, and I didn’t realize he was the same guy that did Ricki Ticki Tavi until years later. I recently saw Disney’s The Princess & the Frog because it’s Disney’s return to hand drawn animation.

Drawing with words is a beautiful focus.

@ Fred

Magoo cracks me up and I like how they made turned his Christmas Carol into a play with acts.

@ Alik

I have mixed emotions about The Polar Express. It was a great story and animation, but I think I would have enjoyed it more if The Little Engine that Could or The Incredibles made a guest star appearance.

I’d love to be able to draw – I must improve my drawing with words next year – so the ability of cartoonists is amazing, and the way film producers put together their films and make them such fun is too brilliant .. we do and can learn from these.

I think you might have answered my Christmas list for my family – a fun movie – with a story to tell .. & I might get to watch too ..

Thanks JD .. and love the others’ ideas .. always good to have these recommendations ..
Enjoy the festive time – Hilary Melton-Butcher

Thanks giving would not be complete without Miracle on 34th Street.

Thank you.

@ Eduard

I know what you mean. This is one of my favorite times of the year for movies.

@ fulham

Good list. I scoped out telefilms – there are so many good ones.

@ Karl

8 Crazy Nights, really is crazy and fun. It’s a shame Marley got smarter with hindsight, but it’s cool he passed on his lessons to Ebenezer.

@ Patricia

I’ve never heard of The Christmas Wish, but I’ll check it out.

@ JB King

I’ve heard of it, but didn’t realize it’s a holiday movie. I’ll check it out.

@ Jodi

It took longer than I expected, because I kept adding to it. At first I just did a quick list, but then I wanted pictures and useful links.

@ Walter

If I miss Rudolph, it just doesn’t feel like Christmas.

@ Nadia

It sounds like I need to check out Love Actually.

Very well put – success does come in different ways.

@ Cath

I love The Nightmware Before Christmas. In fact, it was in my original list, but I wanted to cut the list to 25.

@ Lance

The actors are great and the story is great … it’s one of those that I can watch again and again.

@ Jannie

Thank you. The Chevy Chase one always cracks me up.

I love your synopsis of the Chevy Chase one. Reminds me to see it again!

The Santa Clause is always wonderful to watch.

And I’m now on vacation — oh my lord, where’s the kid? Did she get on the plane with us??

Just kidding, I’m not really on vacation.
