10 Christmas Movies Better than “Elf”

I didn’t expect to make a blog like this, but Karl asked to me name the 10 Christmas Movies I think are better than “Elf”. I will also keep certain non-traditional films off this list so you won’t be seeing “Die Hard”, “Batman Returns” or other weird ones on this list.

So here we go with a list and ranking that is bound to make people angry:

1.) Home Alone

2.) Christmas Vacation

3.) Scrooged

4.) A Christmas Story

5.) Gremlins

6.) The Nightmare Before Christmas

7.) White Christmas

8.) The Muppet Christmas Carol

9.) Just Friends

10.) Black Christmas 1974

Now that I have put this list out I will be enabling all comments, my social media accounts and hiding in a dark room for the weekend.
