Most christmasy film (from list)?

It's a long list, I don't expect anything more than a quick scan down it. Also it's empires list (or part of) of the top 500 films (only up to 150s so far) these are the films on the list that I haven't seen (also the numbers are the place where the film is.

1. Lost in Translation is NOT a Christmas movie... Most of these arnt, if any Just watch Pan's Labrynth
2. blue velvet
3. Oh My God.. theres just too many to read!
4. An American werewolf in London.
5. Scrooge in all it's adaptations!
6. Bad Santa is the best Christmas film ever. Billy Bob Thornton is well funny.
7. Commando, the most christmasy film ever on TV... Every year its on Channel 5 in the UK
8. A lot of the above I've never heard of, let alone seen, but my choice from the list would be The Great Escape, even though I've seen it dozens of times. I associate The Third Man with New Year's Eve; many years ago a friend & I visited some Chinese students on New Year's Eve, to find them watching The Third Man with the lights turned off. They didn't really understand what it was about & asked us to explain it!
9. Annie Hall
10. Nothing on your list.
11. Well just by scanning the list I can see that this is probably the least christmassy you can get in terms of movies. The one that stuck out to me is A Clockwork Orange. That's one to save for Halloween if anything. Mostly fantastic movies but none I would suggest watching on Christmas Eve- does it have to be a movie from this list? I'd say either Citizen Kane, Casablanca or 12 Angry Men. All old, but all classic and atleast not gory or violent. If you want something christmassy- It's a Wonderful Life, Harvey (not a christmas movie but will definetly put you in the mood), Home alone (always fun to watch) or Elf. So many to choose from, but hope I helped :) Happy Christmas!
12. the only thing that made me feel remotely christmas-y was annie hall.
13. I recommend, Duck Soup, pat Garrett and Billy the Kid, La Dolce Vita, the great escape, manhattan, and the treasure of Sierra madre. Jingle Bells!
