Good list. I'd add a few more of the classic cartoons like The Year Without a Santa Claus, Frosty the Snowman, and the Little Drummer Boy.
I don't know how I forgot Frosty. I'll have to add that. And Year Without Santa. I don't remember if I've ever seen Drummer Boy. Some of the television special ones they didn't have so I couldn't put them. Like the older version of Santa Claus is Coming to Town and Pee Wee's Christmas Special. But they had most of the good ones like Grinch and Rudolph.
Good list man. I watch the Scrooge ones. My favourite is the Alistair Sim one although the Muppets one is great. And you can't beat a Santa Slasher like Christmas Evil or Silent Night Deadly Night (punish!!!).
I like watching Gremlins every year too. And Home Alone 1 and 2.
One I got to like recently is a film called The Christmas Candle. It's got Susan Boyle in it. It's really good.
And any Christmas film with James Stewart is worth my while watching.
Remember the Night
A Christmas Carol (Alistair Sim)
There's actually a film noir called Christmas Holiday, directed by Robert Siodmak (Criss Cross, The Killers, Phantom Lady, The Dark Mirror etc.), but I haven't seen it yet.
I don't know if I've mentioned it before, and I know it's on your list, but The Night Before had me laughing my ass off harder than any movie in recent memory. Given, I've got "experience" that made it extremely relatable, but yeah. Good shit. Had me crying.

I found Christmas Holiday on YouTube and I'm about to watch it now. Never heard of it before. The actors in it don't seem like very noir-y actors. People like Deanna Durbin and Gene Kelly, old musical comedy Stars. I bet it's going to be cool though.
