Anyone who puts ‘Bad Santa’ on their list is good with me. ‘Ernest Saves Christmas’ might be my favorite.

slangeug.bsky.social•187 days ago

And ‘Christmas Vacation.’ How is that not on your list?!

wankpuffin.bsky.social•187 days ago

Violent Night

reply

atomiccoyote.bsky.social•187 days ago

National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation should be in there.

reply

atomiccoyote.bsky.social•187 days ago

Also, I dislike Christmas with the Kranks.

The whole neighborhood trying to bully them into celebrating Christmas is really shitty behavior.

reply

All they wanted was one year where the can just enjoy the Holiday. But nope the neighborhood are jerks all of em.

Also c'mon Sean, this is a wrestling page, where is Santa With Muscles

reply

reactiveraichu.bsky.social•187 days ago

But it is a Christmas movie, it takes place during a Christmas party, and people not being there because it’s Christmas is the whole reason the day was chosen.

reply

theadamzone.xyz•187 days ago

I fully agree. Now you must speak with my spouse who says it's not, and then grumbles about how she married some weirdo who thinks Die Hard should replace The Family Stone on the Christmas Eve playlist

Nightmare Before Christmas deserves an honorable mention at least.

You put love hard on the list. This is the brightest moment of the day. It’s young but I doubt I’ll take more joy out of anything today.

I think Violent Night should make the Top 10

reply

brkfstsausage.bsky.social•187 days ago

You’ve got way too much “hard” on the board here. Can we get closer to God, maybe replace one of those throbbing “hard”s with “A Christmas Story”?

reply

justageek16.bsky.social•187 days ago

if Die Hard is in the list, then Batman Returns needs to be there as well.

My ex and I would spend Christmas Day going to as many movies as we could fit in the day. Neither of us were interested in Christmas-themed films. So to me "Christmas Movies" are anything we saw that day.

I don't want to argue, that's old hat. But if you haven't seen the Netflix movie, Klaus, it is worth a consideration.

If you have, I respect your decision to not put it on here. Have a lovely evening

reply

d-altagnan.bsky.social•187 days ago

The 1966 animated "Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas!" narrated by Boris Karloff is the only good Christmas movie but only if you turn it off at the 20:00 mark.

The song "You're A Mean One, Mr. Grinch," sang by the incomparable Thurl Ravenscroft, is the only good Christmas song.

Full stop

reply

mickeymvt02.bsky.social•187 days ago

Thurl is such a bad ass name

If Die Hard was set during Halloween, the movie would still work with minor revisions.

If Miracle on 34th Street was set during Halloween, the movie wouldn't work without major revisions.

Thus, Die Hard is not a Christmas movie. It's just set during Christmas.
