Round 1
“The Polar Express” vs. “Home Alone”
“National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation” vs. “Elf”
“The Grinch” vs. “Rudolph”
“A Christmas Story” vs. “It’s A Wonderful Life”
Once the votes came in, I have to admit that they took me a bit by surprise. “Home Alone”, “Elf”, “The Grinch”, and “A Christmas Story” all won their round by strides, leaving the other movies to be eliminated.
