Week 110 Spotlight: Who could forget Joyeux Noel?

As December 25 approaches, most of us turn to the holiday classics to help summon up our Christmas spirit. Films like Miracle on 34th Street, It’s a Wonderful Life and Die Hard help us to remember the true spirit of the season.

In honor of these classic films, Moviefone has assembled their list of the top 25 Christmas movies of all time. This week, Joel Murphy and Lars take a look at Moviefone’s list and share their own thoughts on the best films of the season. They also find the time to discuss space elevators, their tombstones and, of course, Batman.

What Christmas classics got the shaft from Moviefone? What film would our dynamic duo put at number one? What woman in her 70s would Joel and Lars still hook up with? The answers to these questions and more are in this week’s podcast.
