 Hi, everybody. I’m Peter Travers. I host the popcorn 1 movie show here at ABC and on line. And ABC Family is running a 25-days of Christmas, the whole month, which made me think, what are my favorite Christmas movies. And they are all available on ABC Family. But these are the three, come on.


 
I’m going with Elf. I mean if you haven’t seen it, this is gonna change your life. This is where Farol at his very funniest which he sang a lot. Especially in the Elf cast 2, and I mean anybody can look funny, and this guy really looks funny and he’s found out from Santa that he is actually a human and he has to go back to New York and live and explain why a elf is like and mean no in New York. So this movie has laughs and it has that little thing we want in a Christmas movie where we tier up a little. 
 
For fun, for a Christman movie, that just makes you laugh from start to finish, is there anything better than National Lampcoon’s Christmas Vacation. 
 
Ok, I’m a sucker for all those Lampcoon movies. But Christman vacation with Chavy chase 3 at his stupidest, I mean the roar 4 of car grizward, is built-in stupidity and Chavy chase clases to the man of born. 
 
And Berverly Danchlow is there with his wife. And now since this movie was made in 1989, this kids are played by Johny Goldleggy who’s on Big Benthory and Julia Luathu’s God Knows Where. 
 
But this movie, this movie is funny in everywhere because it’s everybody’s waited decorate for a Chiristmas and there is the scene in this movie where Chavy puts too many lights all over the house and the tree, well, you know what, I’m not gonna say more, just see it. 
 
And watch a Christmas movie of any kind unless you got a little dicken thing there. And a Christman carol 5 has been made maybe 110 times; but the most recent one is called a Christman Carol with Performance Capture 6, with Jim Carry, doing scrooch, and almost everything else. He plays all the ghosts that come to haunt 7 him. 
 
A pair of problems sometimes for Performance Capture but not in this movie. Jim Carry, I think he is kind of a walking cartoon anyway; and in this movie, seeing him play all of these parts, you get that spirit of Christmas and you get a sense of – I’d love this season, I love just sit in home, lying back and watching these movies and ABC Family has made it all possible for you. So these are my favorite three movies.
