    C’mon

    Rankin-Bass Rudolph or the list is bogus.

    Same with National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation.

    Original Grinch is best Grinch, but I’ll accept them as a duo.

    Die Hard is as Christmas as it gets, so yipee kai ay motherfucker!

    A Charlie Brown Christmas is a must.

    Emmet Otter’s Jug Band is almost at that level of necessity, though maybe only for us gen-x kids.

    Anything else is open for negotiations on my end, I ain’t mad at anyone else’s list beyond joking.

    However, Frosty the Snowman, also a Rankin-Bass production is awesome, and any of their Christmas specials deserve at least an honorable mention.

      If I got Heat Miser and Cold Miser I’m good.

      Have you seen the LEGO Star Wars Holiday Special? Very fun.

      My true Christmas watch list has Rudolph, Frosty the Snowman, and Santa Claus is Coming to Town from Rankin-Bass. It just seemed like flooding to put them all in there, so I just put my favorite.

        Haven’t caught it yet. One of those things where it’s on a long list of stuff to watch, but there’s usually something more interesting for one of us.

        Tbh, I can spend days during the Christmas holidays with Rankin-Bass. There’s not really a stinker among them for me, though the older ones are the really great ones.
