- It's a Wonderful Life (1946) I know; big shocker that this is No. 1, right? Well, sometimes movies are considered masterpieces for a reason, and this is one of those times.
- A Christmas Story (1983) Okay, I know a lot of you who've gotten this far are going to be upset that this isn't No. 1. I love it, too, especially when Ralphie's (Peter Billingsley) pal gets triple-dog-dared into touching his tongue to a frozen metal flagpole.
- A Charlie Brown Christmas (1965) Some holiday movies just make you feel good when they come on. They wrap you in a comforter of warm, cozy nostalgia. To me, and I'm guessing a lot of you, this is that movie.
- Elf (2003) The best Christmas flick of the century. Granted, the century hasn't been that long, but still. Will Ferrell is priceless as the oversized elf who ventures far away from the North Pole to search for his father.

- 'A Charlie Brown Christmas' (1965) Director: Bill Melendez. A Charlie Brown Christmas joins the ranks of How the Grinch Stole Christmas as another beloved short film with a Christmas theme that was released in the 1960s.
- 'A Christmas Tale' (2008) Director: Arnaud Desplechin. There are plenty of well-established Christmas movies in the English language, but it's also worth highlighting Christmas movies that are in languages other than English, given the holiday is celebrated outside English-speaking countries.
- 'Rare Exports: A Christmas Tale' (2010) Director: Jalmari Helander. Jalmari Helander is a filmmaker who specializes in making unusual and rather out-there genre films, as demonstrated more recently in the relentless 2022 action movie that was Sisu.
- 'How the Grinch Stole Christmas' (1966) Directors: Chuck Jones and Ben Washam. Forget about the divisive 2000 live-action movie that's a beloved childhood classic to some a nightmarish fever dream of a movie to others; 1966's How the Grinch Stole Christmas is where it's at as far as adaptations go.
