No. 31 - X-Men (2000)
This is the flick that started the current comic book movie craze. Man I couldn’t wait for this one and, except for maybe a little more action, it didn’t disappoint me (obviously).
No. 30 - Batman Begins (2005)
As far as I am concerned, this is the greatest comic book movie of all time. At least until The Dark Knight is released this summer. Hope my expectations aren’t too high 
No. 29 - Lethal Weapon 2 (1989)
Many may consider this superior to the original in terms of action and comedy. I think it is the second best flick in the franchise, but it did have Leo Getz.

OK, so I don’t have that many favorite “Christmas movies.” My solution? Create a list with my favorite Christmas movies and some flicks that aren’t “Christmas movies” but take place during the holiday season. Here it is:
10. Home Alone (1990)
Come on. You know you like this flick.
9. Bad Santa (2003)
Is he ever.
8. Trading Places (1983)
Wow. Think you are having a bad holiday season? It can’t be as bad as Dan Aykroyd’s character’s in this flick. No trailer, but a hilarious scene (language alert!)
7. Batman Returns (1992)
Even superheroes celebrate the holidays.
6. Die Hard (1988)
Christmas Eve trapped with violent criminals in a skyscraper. Sounds like fun.
5. Lethal Weapon (1987)
One of the greatest action movies of all time opens with Jingle Bell Rock and ends on Christmas.
4. Elf (2003)
“I just like to smile. Smiling’s my favorite!” I love this flick.
3. A Christmas Story (1983)
This flick is on TV so often during the holiday season that you really don’t have an excuse if you don’t catch at least a little bit of it. Classic.
2. Planes, Trains and Automobiles (1987)
Ever have a trip this bad? I Couldn’t find the trailer, but here is a great scene.
1. National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation (1989)
My favorite Christmas movie and one of my favorite comedies of all time. A must see.
