Movies only:
A Christmas Story
Christmas Vacation
Home Alone
The Muppet Christmas Carol

I struggled with a 4th as the first 3 are the only ones I watch every year. I love Die Hard, but I don't consider it a Christmas Movie.

Specials
Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer
A Charlie Brown Christmas
How the Grinch Stole Christmas
Frosty the Snowman
An L of an Ag

Going to also mention "Bad Teacher" as a somewhat tangential Christmas movie. Seems like it's in our late December holiday viewing more often than not.

My wife being a teacher (now retired) might have something to do with that.

Christmas Vacation is my only "Watch Every Year" show. Apparently I'm not alone. It seems to be the most popular by far.
Which I honestly don't get. Is it a fun movie? Sure but not an every year must see and Chevy Chase type humor is usually right up my alley. There are several Christmas comedies I'd opt for over Christmas Vacation: A Christmas Story, Home Alone, Elf, Bad Santa, Scrooged, Trading Places, The Night Before, The Ref, Ernst Saves Christmas, etc..

Some of you apparently have never seen a picture of Mt. Rushmore.
Sure I have, that is why I split mine up into three categories of four.

You probably don't like Calvin & Hobbes either. I figure folks like you didn't have a childhood.

For me "A Christmas Carol" with George C. Scott is my favorite. I like a lot of Christmas movies, but most are not something I can watch multiple times. Things like Christmas Vacation or Elf are enjoyable the first few times, but I can't watch them anymore. A Christmas Story is a classic but I've seen it so many times that I've burned out in it.

Die Hard
Christmas Vacation
Elf
Home Alone

The ones I definitely like to watch every year. Also, I love the Netflix The movies that Made Us episode on Home Alone. So crazy how they thought about John Williams as a joke, and then he actually agreed to do it. John Williams' score for that movie is absolutely epic.

Yep, Bad Santa is an underrated, incredible Christmas movie. I've been holding out hope for a Bad Santa 3 to happen

Surprised no one has said The Santa Clause with Tim Allen yet

OP: white Christmas? That's hard to watch.

I started forcing everyone to watch Claymation Christmas from like 1988 and now everyone demands it.

My exwife would ask what Hollywood starlet I found most attractive, and my answer was always Donna Reed in It's a Wonderful Life…
