Kansas’ Favorite Christmas Movies

The 1990 hit film “Home Alone” takes home top honors for 2024, ahead of 2000’s “How The Grinch Stole Christmas” and 1983’s classic “A Christmas Story.” Keep an eye out for more pop culture stories as well as the best Kansas sportsbook promo codes with BetKansas.com.

Which Xmas Film Won Out in Kansas?

For 2024, the top Christmas film was “Home Alone” (nine search interest score), the story of a boy who accidentally gets left home by himself while the rest of his family flies to Europe.

The 2000 version of “How The Grinch Stole Christmas” starring Jim Carrey and another holiday tale of childhood, “A Christmas Story” tied for second with a search interest score of eight apiece.

Throw in three more holiday films, in “The Polar Express,” “Elf” and “National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation,” which each had search interest scores of seven, and you have the full list for 2024 in the Sunflower State.

When it comes to Christmas films, no flick held the type of status that Chris Columbus’ classic “Home Alone” did in Kansas, however. The comedy starring Macaulay Culkin – which spawned three sequels over the decades – still holds its own close to 35 years after it hit theaters for the first time nationwide.
