Best Christmas Special of All Time

bsu legato · December 23, 2003

8 holiday classics, plus an open slot for whatever obscure crap I may have forgotten. But only One will remain standing. YOU decide.

Mechamaniac · December 23, 2003

So, you included "It's a Wonderful Life" which is live action.

So, continuing in that vein, my vote goes for

"A Christmas Story"

Yup, despite the 24 hour TNT marathons every year, it's still my favorite. - So my vote went for OTHER.

Close second being good old fashiond stop animated Rudoph.

"A Christmas Story"

The only excuse I can offer is... "D'oh."

Poor little Ralphie definitely deserved a spot on that list.

What about the Star Wars christmas special?

*gets shot by an assassin hired by George Lucas*

Golden Arms · December 23, 2003

From the list above Rudolph all the way. "Why am I just a misfit........"

"I am the heat Meiser"

You need more Rankin and Bass stuff on the list

I had to pick A Charlie Brown Christmas....though How the Grinch Stole Christmas was a close 2nd.

As for The Star Wars Christmas Special....come on...its a classic....Bea Arthur singing!

What about the Star Wars christmas special?

Technically, it was called the "Star Wars Holiday Special" so I didn't feel bad about leaving it out. For all we know, it may have been intended to celbrate Hanukkah, Ramadan, or maybe even Kwanza.

OT: as somebody who's actually seen it, I've decided that I actually want you curious fans to find it and watch it. And then when it's over, and you're desperately clawing your eyes out to deaden the pain that the SW:HS inflicted on your soul, I get to punch each of you in the groin for beeing foolish enough to seek it out.

The Year Without a Santa Claus was always one of my favorites. B))

That's why I didn't capitalize. I wasn't sure of the real title.

Strong are you in the dark side.

Evil you are, yes.

Think of the Holiday Special as one of those cubes from Hellraiser. Sure, it looks pretty neat, but if you play with it you're gonna end up in some nether realm with your skin flayed off by hooks and chains for all eternity.

Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Can't beat a blood bath during Xmas. B))

Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Can't beat a blood bath during Xmas.

I totally agree. I am going to watch American Psycho tonight.

EXO · December 23, 2003

Not just any BB Gun... but an official Red Ryder carbine action 200 shot range model air rifle...

Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Can't beat a blood bath during Xmas.

By that token, I could have included the original Lethal Weapon, along with Die Hard 1 and 2. <_<

Mechwarrior · December 23, 2003

This poll was done on numorous websites , and the winner everytime was the Christmas Story, which in my opinion is the Best Christmas Special, who could forget the leg lamp the father cherished oh so much?

Anubis · December 23, 2003

A christmas story. Always catch the marathon every Christmas.

Abombz!! · December 23, 2003

How about the SW Xmas Special? Or is that even a Xmas special? :huh:

Already been discussed. Read about a few posts from the beginning.

Abombz!! · December 23, 2003

Oh well. I guess theres more terrible things we have to come up with.... to warm our hearts during such dreaded season. :blink:

SILENT NIGHT DEADLY NIGHT.

ewilen · December 23, 2003

Voted Grinch.

Need to see Christmas Story.

Was thinking of writing in Santa Claus Conquers the Martians.

VALKYRIE-EXCHANGE.COM · December 23, 2003

What about Yogi's first Christmas? I remember it was always airing during the holidays when I was a kid!

"You're a mean one... Mr Grinch."

Gaijin · December 23, 2003

A Christmas Story followed by good ol' Charlie Brown.

The Shade · December 23, 2003

Had to vote for Good Ol' Charlie Brown, though the real star of that special is Snoopy. (Loves it when Shroeder is playing his piano and Snoopy is dancing on it.)

I forgot all about that movie. Great choice. Santa was a little f*&^ed up in that one. Goes to show you what happens when a kid sees both of his parents killed by homicidal Santa.

KingNor · December 23, 2003

Invader Zim's Most Horrible Xmas Ever!

"MEMBRAIN: Freind to the world, enemy of SANTA!"

More christmas specials should end with giant robot fights and the easter platipus.

Watch it drunk. Bea Arthur never looked so sexy! :blink: :lol: :lol: :lol:

WTF did I just say?

**G25 proceeds to vomit violently**

BTW I voted for Charlie Brown. A classic IMHO.

ah... too bad.

Hey no one said "Jingle all the Way."

Duke Togo · December 24, 2003

Ya, It's a Wonderful Life and A Christmas Story were both theater releases, not "Christmas specials" (I personally LOVE both). I had to go with my long time favorite, Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer. Burl Ives, baby, its all about Burl Ives!
