I'm so sorry I forget to include Christmas in July with this poll! I know it is a favorite event for many -myself included! If I could include it now, I think it would belong with the first choice.
It is fun to know... many of you enjoy Christmas Movies All Year Round, as I do! If there is a Christmas movie on TV or one on DVD that I wish to see, I enjoy watching it no matter the calendar date or season.
However, there is one exception for me, It's a Wonderful Life. I feel it is something so dear and sacred, I must wait and watch it during the Christmas Season. Does anyone else feel this way about It's a Wonderful Life or any other movie?
It is my annual ritual to watch It's a Wonderful Life while wrapping all the Christmas gifts. My husband takes all the children out for an afternoon, and I wrap and watch. I never tire of that movie.
ReplyDeleteThat is a lovely tradition, Preppy Mountain Farmer.
DeleteOur family gathers together and we watch It's a Wonderful Life on Christmas Eve. Our wrapping is (hopefully!!!) done, but Santa still has to fill up those stockings later that night!!!
I never get tired of watching it either! It touches my heart every time!
Oops, might want to check those percentages. 37% with 37 votes can't be correct. Currently the poll adds up to more than 100%. Think there's a typo?
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for catching that error. I appreciate you informing me so I could correct that typo. Again, Thank you! :)
DeleteI'm one of the 60% that likes to watch all year. I could watch everyday if I only had the time for it with my work schedule. It's a Wonderful Life is one of the few that I also save for viewing at Christmas. Add to that A Christmas Carol.
ReplyDeleteYes, there are a few others like IAWL and Christmas Carol that are best watched at Christmas! I would also add White Christmas to that list!!!
DeleteMe, too! I agree with both of you!! All year long!!
DeleteHey Net, sorry I couldn't vote in the poll as I can't scroll to the right on my iPhone 5s. :( but I'm with the All Year Long group. Lol Also, I only watch White Christmas on Christmas Eve as I'm wrapping gifts!! I don't watch it at any other time! And if I have time Thanksgiving Day I watch the original Miracle on 34th Street. I will watch it on another day close by if i didn't have time on Thanksgiving Day!!
ReplyDeleteI have to watch Christmas movies after Thanksgiving. Then it's almost 24/7 until they stop showing them on TV for the season. (Usually the 2nd week of January. I TiVo all of them and usually run out of space. Never, ever get sick of them. My favorite is "A Season of Miracles".
ReplyDeleteHave you heard if Cedar Cover is doing a Christmas special this year?
ReplyDeleteYes! I will never watch It's a Wonderful Life anytime but December. Usually on Christmas Eve!!! Almost sacred! LOL!
ReplyDeleteI too watch & must see "It's a Wonderful Life" during Christmas week.
ReplyDeleteNow ! If only we could get ANGELS & ORNAMENTS on DVD that would be fabulous -
Knew it!! Glad to see I'm not the only one "Christmas Crazy"!! LOL!! I agree with you, Net; "It's a Wonderful Life" is in a class of its own and I doubt will ever be topped.
ReplyDeleteHoliday Inn. My fave on Christmas. The 47 version AND the 38 version of A Christmas Carol with Leo G. Carroll
ReplyDeleteIt's A Wonderful Life is my all time favorite Christmas movie and I am just like you: It can only be viewed at Christmas time. It's part of what makes the season so special. White Christmas comes in second. Looking forward to Halloween! The Christmas movies begin and I start decking the halls! Oh what fun!
ReplyDeleteMy husband and 2 boys began watching It's a Wonderful Life on Christmas Eve for the last 5 years. It has become a special family tradition. I always cry at the end when Clarence gets his wings and the town comes together to help George and his family. We watch it only once at Christmas.
ReplyDeleteOh NET, I forgot to put "A Charlie Brown Christmas". We watch this once every year. Love the part where they tell why we celebrate Christmas.
ReplyDeleteTo name a few,here are the movies I watch every year,the Santa Claus trilogy,Jingle All The Way,The Polar Express,Mrs.Miracle 1&2,Home Alone 1&2,Christmas With the Kranks,Santa Baby,The Grinch and A Christmas Carol.
