Winter Holiday Movies Thread • Page 6

If we’re talking bad Hallmark Christmas movies, there’s a real dumb one on Max called A Hollywood Christmas that I can’t legitimately defend but will confess to enjoying. Though it’s more Hallmark the “genre” and not literally a Hallmark Movie, if that makes sense

 

Took advantage of some streaming Black Friday deals today (Peacock $1.99 a month for 1 year and Paramount+ w/Showtime $3.99 a month for 3 months), solely so I can watch as many holiday movies as I can in the next 30 days.

 

Die hard will be going on shortly

 

There’s a bad Hallmark movie?

 

Tubi has a bunch of free great/bad Hallmark Christmas movies

 

Are A Wonderful Life and Miracle On 34th Street actually good? We’re thinking of watching them this year. I might have seen the latter when I was a little kid, but I am not sure.

 

Watched Meet Me in St. Louis last night thinking it was a Christmas movie, but it turns out to have one of the dopest Halloween scenes in film and a subplot where the youngest kid is an absolute psychopath.

And a scene where another kid says this:

 

I genuinely love Its a Wonderful Life. But I’m also a sucker for sentimentality.

 

Just finished Holiday Hotline. It was a very solid entry into the Hallmark Christmas pantheon.

Working through Christmas in Notting Hill right now. Off to a decent start.

 

I watched A Merry Scottish Christmas today. Not enough Scotland landscapes!

 

Watched it

Die hard
Violent night
Office Christmas party

So far

 

Today I watched ExMas on FreeVee and Zoey’s Extraordinary Christmas on Peacock. Both were great

 

Best Christmas Ever couldn't have been worse hahahaha. It would have been amazing though if in the third act, Monkey Bob came to life and set a bunch of Home Alone style traps and went on a murderous rampage. But I didn't get my wish...

 

Just re-watched The Green Knight and it's now officially in the Christmas Movie Canon. Forgot what a dope ass movie that was.

Arnold Schwarzenegger's only directing credit is a made-for-tv Christmas Movie?!

 

Watched Eight Crazy Nights, Rudolph and The Grinch tonight. All free on YouTube, good times

 

Jingle

All

The

Way

 

I’m not a pervert! I just was looking for a Turbo Man doll!

*Bomb goes off inside package Myron was using to hold up the radio station so he could try to get a Turbo Man doll*

Myron: That really was a bomb? This is a sick world we live in! Sick people!

 

Arnold punches out a reindeer. What more do you need.

 

Phil Hartman sleazing it up and hitting on every married woman in the neighborhood

 

Jingle all the way does not hold up at all for me.

 

Same here, it's too mean spirited and has no likeable characters.

 

This is so ridiculously incorrect I don't even understand it
