“Born On The Fourth Of July”? 
Another vote for “The Ref”.
I’ve been trying to get my family to accept watching the MST3K version of this movie as a Christmas tradition. No luck so far.
My favorite Christmas movies in no particular order:
It’s a Wonderful Life
Elf
Miracle on 34th St - the original
A Charlie Brown Christmas
A Christmas Story
Holiday Inn
let’s not forget the Xmas pick-me-up Bad Santa…
Seconding this one. Because, after all, it IS a Christmas movie, albeit a slightly dark one.
Not a movie, but still a great Christmas piece: Night of the Meek from Twilight Zone, with Art Carney as a down-on-his-luck department store Santa.
You won’t be able to find it (it’s not on DVD) but one of my favorite films set around the Christmas holiday is Bill Forsyth’s delightful Comfort and Joy, about a Scottish DJ (Alan “Dickie Bird” Bird) whose flaky but glamorous girlfriend just left him and how he tries to get over it by getting involved in a turf war between two rival ice cream truck companies. It’s very silly, but very funny in that suble, surreal way the Scottish, and Bill Forsyth in particular, have.
“Hello folks!”
Shouldn’t that be “Cheerio folks!”?
Nope. It’s what the recorded voice coming out of one of the ice cream trucks says between the music.
Jinglemusic jinglemusic jinglemusic “Hello folks!” jinglemusic jinglemusic jinglemusic “Hello folks!” and on and on, down the street until it fades away.
The Polar Express
The Sound of Music
The Lion in Winter
The Bishop’s Wife
Hmm…I thought sure it said “Cheerio folks!” 'Course, I haven’t seen the movie in about a decade. 
It’s possible one of the trucks used “Cheerio folks!” but the main one (the one that got attacked) said “Hello folks!.” My husband and I have been saying that to each other in that high-pitched voice ever since we first saw the movie in the theater in 1984. It’s one of those annoying comfy couple insider jokes that people hate.
I haven’t seen it personally, but Pieces of April is one of the few Thanskgiving-based holiday movies.
Has the MST3K version of the Mexican movie simply titled SANTA CLAUSE been put on DVD yet? With Santa fighting the Devil?
“Look! Sandy Duncan!”
When I was a kid, the local theatre had a free Christmas movie for the kids while the parents went shopping- for many years THAT was the movie. Then they started interspersing it with SC CONQUERS THE MARTIANS.
Here’s a “tribute” page for SANTA CLAUS-

AND it is on DVD from Amazon, which is offering it with SC VS MARTIANS!
The American distributor K. Gordon Murray also brought us the great Mexican horror films THE BRAINIAC and NOSTRADAMUS THE VAMPIRE- a staple of late-night horror shows after they ran through their lines of Universal, Hammer & AIP movies.
It’s a Wonderful Life, of course, and the George C. Scott version of A Christmas Carol.
And another enthusiastic vote for Groundhog Day.
