And Our Favorite Christmas Movie In Florida Is

By Keith Connors December 20th, 2022

And our favorite Christmas movie in Florida is? What is your favorite Christmas Movie? The favorite of All Time is “It’s A Wonderful Life.”

Today, according to Wishlisted – Shocker, “Christmas Vacation” looks to be the most popular Christmas movie in the good ole USA. But NOT in every state. By the way, “Elf” is the greatest Christmas Movie of all time. LOL. Any Cotton-Headed Ninny Muggins knows that.  Source News Channel 8

Some less populated states had other favorites. A couple of the states where “Christmas Vacation” was not the most popular include:

Arkansas: “Die Hard”
Georgia: “Edward Scissorhands”
Puerto Rico: “Gremlins”
Hawaii: “It’s a Wonderful Life”
North Dakota: “Love Actually”
