Christmas movies… sort of.

This one…. Die Hard and a few others make the list. Anybody else have any oddball movies they watch this time of year?

Never thought of red dawn as a Christmas movie, although one of my all time favorites. We don't have cable anymore but when we did I always enjoyed Christmas with the Duke on AMC.

Elf. It's horrible. But my girls insisted we watch it every Christmas. They are adults now. We still watch it every time. It's a tradition.

Thank you. That top one has been in my family for close to 150 or so years.

Gremlins is probably my favorite unconventional Christmas movie.

The Godfather....every year...For some reason it's on every year. I just checked and it's on Christmas eve just as I expected.

My wife hates them, but every year I try and squeeze in Christmas Vacation and A Christmas Story. And when possible, Die Hard, yes it is a Christmas movie. BTW, she really hates it when she's watching her Hallmark movies and I start doing some commentary to add to the movie.

Badder Santa.

 

[HuntTalk Freak]

I got to watch the original Grinch and the new one yesterday then the original thrice today because my daughter is obsessed.

Adult movies would include Die Hard, Lethal Weapon, Ronin, Forgetting Sarah Marshall.

Can’t believe no one has said “Home Alone”.

“National Lampoon Christmas vacation” is a favorite in our home.

Merry Christmas ya filthy animals.

For my wife’s family that’s Jingle All The Way. Every year we do Xmas with her parents and watch it after dinner hahaha.

The past few years I’ve been watching Gremlins at xmas time. Some seem to consider it like Die Hard as Christmas adjacent, but I think it’s firmly in the Christmas film camp.

Okay, I’ll show my age….White Christmas is an oldie but a goodie.

I’m not that old, but I do miss the old timers that we grew up watching their Christmas specials every year.
