Annimated Christmas DVD Recommendations?

O.K. I have:

Bah! Humduck
Mickey's Christmas Carol
Buster & Chauncey's Silent Night
How The Grinch Stole Christmas (50th Anniv.)

And I am considering the Flintstones one and the Tom & Jerry Nutcracker one.

So, what are your recommendations for other annimated Christmas DVDs?

Thanks,

James

How about the He-man She-ra Christmas Special. There is also the animated version of the Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe that i grew up in England watching every christmas.

Also for some reason i always like to watch the Ralph Bashki LOTR at Christmas.

Rudolph, Frosty the Snowman, Mr. Magoo's Christmas Carol.

It's too bad "The Night Before Christmas" (1968) isn't on dvd yet. Otherwise I would have recommended it. At least I still have my vhs version.

EDIT: The Simpsons Christmas dvd's are pretty good, if you like the show and don't own the season sets.

Off topic: Watching the Family Guy Christmas episode every x-mas will probably become a tradition of mine (I love that episode).

It looks like you don't own all the classics, like the Rankin/Bass stuff.

If you have a Costco near you, they have a set that includes 7 or so of the old standards (Rudolph, Frosty, Year W/O Santa Claus, etc) for about $30.

I went to Target last week, and they have like seven different configurations of the Rankin/Bass shows, along with a couple of them sold separately. If you watch and wait you should definitely be able to catch one of the packs on sale, I got the one in the red "leather" packaging (Rudolph, Frosty, Santa is Coming, and a couple more) for 17.99 from Best Buy last year. I did have to buy Year W/o separately, but it was six bucks.
Last year my boy watched Mickey Mouse's Twice Upon a Christmas, or something, about a dozen times, though I don't know if it's on DVD. It's still on the DVR for this Christmas.
