Their list is down below and is touted to list in order the “best Christmas movies ever”.  I wish they had listed their criteria but until they do I will assume it is just another qualitative list given by a source that should be an expert in the topic.

The movie I enjoy the most and most people can rally around is Christmas Vacation so it is #1 on my list.

I will add my own qualitative list to the mix of expert listings as I too watch a lot of movies:

  1. ‘National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation’ (1989)
  2. ‘A Christmas Story’ (1983)
  3. ‘Elf’ (2003)
  4. ‘Scrooged’ (1988)
  5. ‘Bad Santa’ (2003)
  6. ‘The Muppet Christmas Carol’ (1992)
  7. ‘Gremlins’ (1984)
  8. ‘The Santa Clause’ (1994)
  9. ‘It’s a Wonderful Life’ (1946)
  10. ‘Miracle on 34th Street’ (1947)
  11. ‘White Christmas’ (1954)
  12. ‘A Christmas Carol’ (1951)
  13. ‘The Polar Express’ (2004)
  14. ‘The Nightmare Before Christmas’ (1993)
