In no particular order...

-Garfield's Xmas
-Charlie Brown Xmas
-Grinch :evil:
-Rocko's Modern Life Xmas Special
-A Christmas Story
-Home Alone is truly classic :)
-Alvin and the Chipmunks Xmas

If anyone even remembers the Chipmunks Xmas special, I'll be surprised. :) I remember that the Cabbage Patch Kids Xmas Special was on right after it, haha.

My favorite Christmas films are:

- A Christmas Carol
- Die Hard
- Home Alone

Charlie & The Chocolate Factory doesn't count as Christmas film in my personal opinion as it's more of an Easter film in my honest opinion though it always seems to be on UK television at Christmas time for some reason.

OhhMyyGodd. It's true. I'm sick of it being aired over and over again every Xmas. They (Tv people) always seem to choose one film and then air it for 4 years, then pick another, etc.

I'd have to say Love Actually. It's so incredibly heart-warming, funny, intelligent, and it really gets me in that special Christmas mood. I watch it every year some week before 24th, it has become a nice tradition of sorts.

If you haven't seen it, you should :)

I feel it in my fingers,
I feel it in my toes,
Christmas's all around me,
and so the feeling grows

My absolute favorite Christmas film is White Christmas. Of course, being a musical fanatic, this isn't a surprise. :P

I also like:
How the Grinch Stole Christmas (animated version)
the Muppet's Christmas Carol (muppets!!)
A Christmas Story (so long as I only watch it once a year!)
It's a Wonderful Life
Miracle on 34th Street.

The Shrek the Halls Christmas special was GREAT.

I thought of three more when I was going to bed/asleep last night.

Movie:
I don't remember the name, but it starred Nicholas Cage, Jon Lovitz, and Dana Carvey as bank robbers stuck in a kind, loving town which they just robbed.

Special:
Mythbusters Christmas Special

Comic:
8-bit Theater (Staff-chucks, yo.)

Shrek Christmas (on a couple weeks ago I think)
The Office (I haven't seen it, but if it is The Office, it has to be good)
