This list began many years ago when I was without the traditional Christmas cheer. Instead I thought to substitute movies with a Christmas scene or background. Three movies originated this list...

Lethal Weapon I & Die Hard I/II

Many others followed over the years - note the inclusion of New Years & Thanksgiving at the bottom ; as with other lists
