For me, it's jingle all the way. It's got everything. A drunk reindeer. A terrorist mailman. Arnold punching a deer. Arnold punching Sinbad. Arnold punching Santa. Arnold in general.

Edit: sure are a lot of die hard fans of Die Hard.

Hear me out: Ernest Saves Christmas

Been quoting lines from this movie for years:

Every time we see Santa at the mall: (lean it to the wife) "His real name is 'Santos'"
Everytime we see a sleigh decoration: "'Slay'! Not 'Sleigh'"
"Call it a fifth sense. Call it extra sensory perspiration."
"Right as rain sugar. Pork's my meat!"
"It's all dem movie people want. Poison!"
"Having walked from the airport, I'll be dead soon"
... and much much more

Holy Christmas I thought I was the only one. When he's talking to Vern in his house, and he's trying to set the lights up, and while he's talking to Vern he's pulling the corn and it's ripping out of the wall and then it ends up going to the chandelier then he pulls the chandelier but it won't fall, so he walks away saying he's going to get some wire cutters. I can't believe how funny this movie is. And I literally watched it last night too lol.
