Looking to ring in the holiday season with a movie marathon? These holiday films fill our team members’ hearts with cheer!
If you’re in the mood for a wholesome, Hallmark-style Christmas movie, this is for you. I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve watched this adorable love story over the years. – Angie
I wouldn’t change the channel if it were on in the background. – Jake
I’ve loved this movie since I was a little girl. The wild haircuts, candy-colored houses and fantastical topiaries make it a total feast for the eyes. – Olivia
Watching Elf with some hot chocolate as we decorate the tree is an annual holiday tradition. From the catchy soundtrack to the highly quotable lines, it’s the kickoff to the holiday season. “But the children love the books!” – Erin
This is usually the first movie I play each season when I start decorating the tree. Not to mention the life lessons it brings: “The best way to spread Christmas Cheer is by singing loud for all to hear.” – Bridget
Another one I wouldn’t mind walking into the room and it being on. – Jake
I stumbled on this movie a few years back and enjoyed it so much that I brought it into my annual holiday rotation. It’s a beautiful mess of family dynamics and a heart-tugging reminder of what’s most important to celebrate. – Erin
I would also leave this one on if I happened upon it. – Jake
The 2018 version of The Grinch is a new favorite—I not only look forward to watching it, but I look forward to listening to the soundtrack, too. Tyler, The Creator (and others) add such a unique twist on some classic songs. – Jasmine
Home Alone quotes are a year-round staple in our house! We love both movies, but there’s something extra magical about NYC all decked out for the holidays, plus John Candy as the Polka King of the Midwest and Catherine O’Hara’s unforgettable airport freakout. It’s pure chef’s kiss perfection! – Olivia
Jingle All The Way is everything that people love about a cheesy Schwarzenegger movie. This tradition started as a joke a few years back and has turned into a yearly watch for our family. – Angie
National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation
When my husband and I started dating, I learned that Christmas Vacation isn’t just a movie, but a tradition. After a meal and gifts, his whole extended family sits around to watch this movie. It’s a special time of laughing and reciting the movie word for word. – Michelle
Every year, my family would make hot chocolates and watch National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation while putting up the tree or unwrapping gifts. The Christmas season just isn’t complete without revisiting this classic together. – Angie
“Save the neck for me, Clark.” 20+ watches and this movie still makes me laugh! It’s our tradition to watch it every year on Christmas Eve. It’s not Christmas without this movie! – Bridget
It is, in fact, acceptable to watch this movie from October 1–December 26. This is a hill I am willing to die on. – Jasmine
This movie is just so nostalgic to me, even the bad special effects. I watched it most years as a kid, and I’m continuing the tradition into my adulthood! – Zoe
This movie is just the best! I’ve watched it nearly every year since it was released. And it gives Comet some well-deserved love and a spotlight for a change. – Bridget
The Year Without a Santa Claus
I love all of these old claymation Christmas movies, especially Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer and Santa Claus Is Comin’ To Town. – Jasmine
Someone had to say it. – Jonathan
