  1. My favorite holiday movie is probably elf. It is a known movie and also played with the famous actor Will Ferrel. He is a hilarious comedian in movies and in any movie he plays in it will always be funny. We don't also have much of a tradition. We celebrate Christmas and we just invite a couple of our friends to have fun. That is basically what we do for this holiday.

  2. my favourite holiday movie would be elf, i find that movie so funny and entertaining for some reasons. I love that movie i always watch it alone because my family doesn't want to watch that movie. I either watch it with my friends or by myself but i still really love that movie. I find that the actors are so good and that the way they acted makes the movie so much better.

  3. My favourite holiday movie is Home alone because it's funny and even though I've watched it over 10 times it's still fun to watch. I like it because Kevin plans all these tricks to stop the robbers from getting in to his house and it's still funny to watch him do them. I could relate to him because I would probably do the same things.

  4. Elf is my favorite christmas movie because the story is really funny and stupid in the same time. The movie is funny and cringy in a good way. I dont really watch chrismas movies because it is normally always the same thing. Their is a kid or someone that says that santa exist, and the end everyone believes in santa. But with elf, the story has a twist.

  5. There are a lot of movies I like watching during the holiday season. Some of my favorite ones are Miracle on the 34th street, Jingle all the way and also Home Alone. I prefer such movies more because they don't just set a holiday season mood but they also give a great message that not everyone is able to understand. Also these movies cast some of my favorite actors and actresses so that's another reason why I like these movies.

  6. My favourite movies were home alone, christmas with the kranks and a clay made movie about Rudolph the Reindeer, they are all great to watch get you in the christmas mood, and even though We have seen these kinds of movies every year they're still fun to watch, especially the ones for kids regardless of the fact I'm already 15. We do have a tradition of going to the laurentians after and sometimes for christmas.

  7. I don't really understand what qualifies as a holiday movie. I'll say that my favourite holiday movie is Jurassic World. I know it came out in the summer, but at the beginning of the movie, there is "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas" playing in the background. It's my favourite holiday movie cuz it has dinosaurs in it, and dinosaurs are wicked cool. Peace!

  8. My favorite holiday movies definitely have to be the home alone movies. There really well made and fun for the whole family to watch. I also like them because they only really play on tv (I don't have Netflix) around Christmas time so you're always eager to watch them. The holiday tradition my family always does is we go to church on Christmas Eve and then go to my grandparents house for dinner and have way to many shortbreads for dessert.

  9. I genuinely hate christmas movies. All but two, those two being Elf and muppets christmas carol. They both seem to have some thought put into them unlike most christmas movies where its always sharing is caring to resolve the plot. Now you could argue that's what they do in elf, but then elf is kinda making fun of the trope. And for the muppets? Who can dislike the muppets! I know grown ups who still cry to miss piggy and kermit singing over the rainbow together...

    As for traditions? I'm not quite sure if I do. I do know my familly does a very old british tradition related to chocolate oranges which mostly originates since the first world war. Where you'd get given a chocolate orange, only one, for the entire year on christmas day. Story behind is a bit long for a blog but I highly suggest you look more into it, its rather interesting.

  10. I don't really have a favorite holiday movie. I only have a favorite movie in general. Although, if i had to pick one it would probably be elf. I don't remember how the movie goes and i don't remember when i last watched it. All i remember is that the movie is a very funny movie. And any comedy movie that can actually make me laugh is a good movie and a well produced movie. I don't have any special holiday traditions. My family isn't big on celebrating. It's really only me. So i go and celebrate with my friend Athena. Every holiday that comes by i go and hang with her family. Her tradition is that they have a big family dinner and invite all her relatives to come and join.

  13. My favorite holiday movie would probably be Elf because it's hilarious and it's one of my favorite movies. Even though I'm Jewish, my family still celebrates Christmas. We wake up Christmas morning and run downstairs to see all of the presents, but we're not allowed opening them till my parents wake up, so we wait and then we open our presents together as a family

  14. My favorite Christmas movie would be Home alone.My favorite holiday movie would be home alone because when I was a kid I would always find the movie the funniest movie ever and also because its a classic.I really like home alone for many reasons for example I really liked it because it brought back good memories,its still a really good movies,it always keeps me at the edge of my seat and also because if I ever got bored of watching one movies I watch another home alone movie since there is many.

  15. my favourite Christmas movie would have to be the grinch. every year my sister and my cousins and I go to my grandparents house Christmas Day and after we're done sleeding and eating we watch the grinch or elf. the grinch is also my favourite movie because no matter how many times I watch it , it can still make me laugh each time

  16. My favorite holiday movie would be Home Alone. Home Alone is a great movie because it shows a kid taking out adults with pranks which is pretty funny. Another thing I like about it is that they have a lot of creative ideas for all these pranks. I dont really have any holiday traditions since I dont really celebrate them.

  17. My favourite christmas movie is nightmare before christmas by Tim Burton. The reason why this movie is my favourite is because it combines both of my favourite holidays Halloween and CHRISTMAS! Another reason is that it is pretty creative with the doors that lead to different holidays. Also that the king of halloweentown wants to give christmas a try after he finds halloween boring. Then after he fails on what he thinks christmas is and realizes he should just be himself and do what he enjoys and is good at, Halloween.

    P.S yes I know that this movie can be associated with Halloween but it is technically a christmas film also.

  18. One of my favourite holiday movies is Home Alone 1. It is one of my favourites because when I was younger my Aunt and I would always watch it together and as I watch it, it brings back memories since she passed away. It is also a very fun and eventful movie. I don’t really have any special holiday traditions but usually always around Christmas day my family and I have a mini holiday movie marathon where we watch 2-3 movies in a day.

  19. I love most Christmas movies but my favourite would have to be the grinch. I love how unique the story is and the main character is in this movie. I also love how funny the grinch's dog is and the encouragement Cindy Lou Hoo has towards the grinch. This movie overall reminds me of good times and family since I watch it every Christmas with my parents and brother.

  20. I actually have more than one favorite. Elf, The nutcracker, and Jack Frost. I watch Elf every year during Christmas, and I just find it so funny and cute! The Nutcracker is a movie I haven't seen in a while, but I remember seeing the play a while back as well, I remember being so amazed by it, all of the dancers were so impressive. Jack Frost was always one of my favorites as well, I haven't seen it in years, but I do remember loving it, and I'm planning on watching again.

  21. My favourite Christmas movie is Home alone lost in New York. For as long as I can remember, I loved Christmas. The Christmas spirit, decorations, food, movies and most of all presents. Every year my family would host a Christmas party for all of my friends and family, and this was one of the most anticipated event, in my mind, of the year because everything I loved about Christmas would be packed into this one night event. I would receive many gifts from friends of my parents who I didn't even know and I would play with all my best friends. After the party was where the real excitement started because my best friend mich would sleepover and we would have so much fun saying up all night.

  22. My favourite christmas movie is the grinch. It is a great movie with one of my favourite actors in it ( jim Carrey ). This movie is amazing to watch during the christmas holidays. This movie is great to watch with your family too. its funny and has a really good story line that keeps you hooked.
    During the holidays my whole family ( from my mothers side ) gets together and celebrates christmas.

  23. I would have to say that my favorite holiday movie is Elf. It always brings me laughter even if I watch it 3 times every Christmas. I think my favorite part would be when Buddy the Elf tries to give a hug to a raccoon, which doesn't go well.
    Every Christmas since I was born my family and I have had the same tradition of getting ornaments. Each year I get a new Christmas ornament, with my name and the year engraved on it. Also we always have a big breakfast in the morning before opening presents.
