Friday Hoddle of Coffee, Christmas Movie Debate, December 23, 2016

By the time we post the next Hoddle Christmas will have come and gone. So here’s today’s topic, given the absence of any football this weekend to talk about: Favorite Christmas movies. Go.

My List

1. It’s a Wonderful Life (Come at me.)
2. Home Alone
3. Elf
4. White Christmas (sentimental favorite of mine, I’ll admit)
5. Christmas Carol (Alastair Sim version)

My tastes are admittedly old school. Your mileage may vary with those. What’s your top five? (Obviously, be nice in the comments. All normal rules apply.)
