TOP HOLIDAY MOVIE ICONS

A new poll asking about festive films is out and has some surprising results. For the best movie quote,  Zuzu Bailey’s “Every time a bell rings an angel gets his wings” from It’s a Wonderful Life won the best Christmas movie quote and Home Alone‘s “Merry Christmas, ya filthy animal” came in a close second.

As for the Top Icons, Ebeneezer Scrooge surprisingly topped the list! Sure, it’s a British survey but still, Rudolph and not-bad Santa didn’t make the list?! Seems sketchy. Unless it’s Scrooge McDuck as Ebeneezer in Mickey’s Christmas Carol. Then I get it.

Here’s who else made the cut:
