Haven't ever really been a holiday movie person. There are movies that I'm in the mood to watch during the holiday season, though, which don't have anything to do with the holidays. I'll watch the Potter movies if they're on (preferred the books to the movies considerably), for example. The Brosnan Bond movies as well, for some reason. Just watched Christmas Vacation for the first time last year thanks to my Fiancee. I liked it. I've seen the heavy hitters (the one with the tongue frozen to the light pole/bb gun and the one where the main character sees the difference he's made in other people's lives) probably once all the way through, at a very young age, and just haven't ever felt the desire to revisit. They were never a big thing in my household growing up.

Also haven't seen Elf or Polar Express all the way through yet. I love Friday After Next.

The Grinch 

the new version with Dr. Strange as the Grinch was impressively entertaining, but 75% of that might be that they had perhaps the best ever version of an animated dog ever put in a movie. Seriously, they must have just brought in a dozen dog owners and told them to animate Max. It was beautiful.

The soundtrack is pretty solid too.
