so what is it then?

I find that a Christmas is always incomplete without viewing of Die Hard.

For some reason Home Alone. I know it's shit, but it brings back good memories of being a kid.

Uncle Buck, even though it's not really a proper Christmas movie.

Oh, and of course National Lampoon Christmas Vacation.

Santa Claus: The Movie or A Christmas Carol. But there are many more movies that define Christmas TV.

Yup, Die Hard for me too, as long as its not the over edited channel 3 version, with no swearing.

Whats the modern day Christmas carol one thats got Bill Murry in it?

Has to be Home Alone for me. It's quite amazing how the magic the film had when I saw it as a kid is still there when I watch it 10-15 years later as an adult.
