I love old Christmas records from the 50s and 60s. It's what I grew up listening to. My favorites are probably "Buone Natale" by Sergio Franchi and an old record of Christmas standards by the King Family.
My favorite Christmas movies are A Christmas Story (the father is my favorite character. I swear it's modeled on my dad and grandfather!) and Miracle on 34th Street. My favorite Christmas special is the Disney version of the Christmas Carol. I used to get all teary-eyed when I was little during the part where Minnie and Mickey are looking at Tiny Tim's crutch by the stove. *sniff, sniff*

IDK why but I read that as A Chris Brown Christmas. I did the HARDEST double-take.
Songs
Santa Baby!!
This Christmas (Donny Hathaway)
All I Want for Christmas (TLC)
It's not really a movie, but does anyone remember the Christmas special for Eureka's Castle? When Magellan goes looking for a Christmas tree and gets lost in the woods? My favorite Christmas special ever, even now.

They are my favorite. This was the first year in 7 years we didn't go, and it doesn't feel like Christmas without Chris Caffery & Co.
I'm a huge Christmas geek with about 500 Christmas songs on my iPod. I think my favorite Christmas song is O Holy Night.
I love watching Elf, Love Actually, Rudolph, and the Garfield Christmas special at Christmas.
