I guess if you have a secular view of “Christmas” this list might apply, but clearly a Christmas spirit did not inspire this list.

'It's a wonderful life' is about banks lending out money they don't have! Everytime you deposit $10 to ur bank, it enables your bank to loan out (and collect interest on) $100 (by creating $90 out of thin air). If u and I do it, it's called printing money

Missing National Lampoons Christmas Vacation

Did Christmas Vacation not make a splash across the pond!?

Sweet Jesus, this may be the worst top 20 list of all time.

HOME ALONE 1 & 2 are my all time greats.

Home Alone and The Gremlins are the Christmas movies I watch every year.

You missed the best Christmas movie of all

You skipped Eyes Wide Shut

Always pleased to see It’s a Wonderful Life at no. 1.

Glad to see you've got Rare Exports in there, gives the list at least some credability....but you've also the The SantaClause and Home Alone 2 in there, so it's all been wiped out.

Anybody who selects the 1994 version of 'Miracle On 34th Street' over that from 1947, knows fuck all about movies.

Die Hard only number 12?! A film that gets better every time you watch it like this should be in the top three to my mind.
