It is out of the running but I just saw this and had to post it

We are tied... AGAIN! At 7-7... Again! There will be an hour of overtime... again! If there are no more votes or it is still tied after one hour I will declare sudden death and the next vote will take it!

And we have a winner! And I did not need to soil my hands to make the decision.

After four brutal rounds, 15 battles, and hurt feelings all around, White Christmas is the winner, the GOAT of Litster Holiday Movies.

As Bing, Danny, Rosemary, and Vera take their final curtain call and receive their gold medals, while Die Hard falls like a terrified Hans Gruber to the cold, uncaring pavement of silver, I would like to thank everyone who participated with their votes, their humour, and their butthurt. Thank you for ushering in the holidays. You guys are awesome

Well done, Mr. B. Thanks for the guided tour through so many holiday movies.

I'm sure all of us are eagerly awaiting your new thread, "The Arbor Day Movie Showdown."

I'm watching Scrooged on Christmas Eve

I watched SCROOGED for the first time last night. I still would have voted against it.

For Halloween, @crazychemgirl gave us a Sweet 16 tournament of tricks and treats. I am blatanyly and unapologetically stealing that idea but for Holiday Movies.

16 movies enter the candy cane cage, the Jingle Dome! After four rounds and 15 head to head battles, one movie will emerge as the Playground's choice for the GOAT of Ho-Ho-Holiday Cinema.📽

To qualify, each film needed to be a feature length movie with a theatrical release, and have a link to the holidays (even if a bit tenuous) so no Charlie Browns, no Rudolphs, no Hallmark, no Netflix. If there's enough response, I might consider doing a small screen version.

The bracket is below. I have included a variety of classic and more recent choices. Some are my personal favourites and at least two I absolutely loathe. Don't see a movie you believe should have been included, well that's just the way the gingerbread crumbles. But feel free to air your grievances in the Festivus Tradition!
