M!ke Posted December 23, 2022 Report Share Posted December 23, 2022 What can I say? I'm in the spirit, and I was having a conversation with my buddy where we were trying to pick our top 3 Christmas movies. And yes, if your movie merely takes place at Christmas, I'd say it counts, so by all means, include Die Hard or Iron Man 3 or Gremlins or whatever. So if you got any, what are your favorite Christmas movies? These are what I landed on, in no particular order for my top 3: Christmas Vacation Home Alone The Muppets Christmas Carol And here are two controversial opinions: It's a Wonderful Life, is wonderfully boring, I just can't sit through it without getting bored. And A Christmas Story does nothing for me, there might be one or two decent laughs to be had, but the rest of the movie I just find insufferable. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheerios4u98 Posted December 25, 2022 Report Share Posted December 25, 2022 Christmas Vacation and Home Alone are two of the only ones I still love. I love Christmas but I don’t find myself enjoying Christmas movies much anymore. I don’t know why! I think the Jim Carey Grinch is pretty funny still. Haven’t watched it in a few years though. I haven’t watched It’s a Wonderful Life since I was a child. But in the past year or so I’ve started really enjoying old movies like I never have before. I should give that one another try, I might love it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jan Backing Track Posted December 25, 2022 Report Share Posted December 25, 2022 Honestly Elf is just really good because xmas movies are kinda wank. Hate the Grinch. Wonderful Life is a good classic. But of course, Krampus. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patient #48273 Posted December 25, 2022 Report Share Posted December 25, 2022 The original Grinch is great. The feature length adaptations are abominations. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Russel Coight Posted December 26, 2022 Report Share Posted December 26, 2022 I wasn’t aware people didn’t enjoy the Jim Carey Grinch. I haven’t seen it in a while but I remember enjoying it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheerios4u98 Posted December 26, 2022 Report Share Posted December 26, 2022 It’s funny! but I also just generally enjoy Jim Carey’s dumb sense of humor. I watched Sonic the Hedgehog just for him. He still makes me laugh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JarJarBlinks Posted December 26, 2022 Report Share Posted December 26, 2022 Can we agree that Home Alone 2 is a complete trash cash-grab of the first one? I had to suffer through this abomination Christmas Eve and it was so cringe. "How many ways can we rip ourselves off with willllder and crazzzier traps and gags?!" The first one is an absolute classic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first one is an absolute classic. 100%. To be fair, I saw the original a bunch of times as a kid and probably only saw the second one once, so the first has a nostalgia factor for me that the sequel doesn't, which makes them hard to compare.
