Placing this movie in the number one spot has become a Christmas tradition as durable as decorating the tree.

Arnold Schwarzenegger is a father who promises to get his son a "Turbo Man", the hot toy of the year. Getting one proves as difficult as coaxing a comedic performance out of the Terminator.

What better way to celebrate the holidays than by destroying a classic animated feature? Even worse the Dr. Suess story has a clear anti-commercialism message and the movie version featured a cross promotion with Visa, the credit card.

When Scott Calvin (Tim Allen) inadvertently kills Santa on Christmas Eve, he finds himself magically recruited to take his place. Why couldn't Santa Claus have killed Tim Allen?

Ben Affleck plays a rich ad executive who pays a dysfunctional family to take him in and make Christmas just how it was when he was a child. Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol is the grandaddy of any Christmas movie about teaching rich people lessons.
