It&#8217;s also a time for watching Christmas movies. A lot of Christmas movies. Over the years, certain films have become perennial holiday favorites: &#8216;It&#8217;s a Wonderful Life&#8217;, &#8216;Miracle on 34th Street&#8217;, &#8216;A Christmas Story&#8217;, &#8216;White Christmas&#8217; and more. Which of these are your favorites to watch every year? Vote after the break.<br \/>\n<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>For my part, I&#8217;m a big fan of &#8216;A Christmas Story&#8217;. When that runs in a 24-hour marathon on cable every year, I usually wind up watching it at least a few times. Other personal favorites include &#8216;Bad Santa&#8217;, &#8216;Miracle on 34th Street&#8217;, &#8216;The Nightmare Before Christmas&#8217; and &#8216;Die Hard&#8217;. <\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve tried to include a broad selection of films in the poll below. I even threw in a few famous TV specials. But this list is by no means definitive.
