In no real order at all.
Ernest Saves Christmas
LOTR in my household.
They’re the perfect Thanksgiving movies for some reason.
Krampus
We watch many of yours, and also Trading Places.
Eating salmon through a filthy Santa beard. Delicious!
It’s November 30th. Go home Lemmy, you’re drunk.
I’m excited!
How does violent night 2 compare?
Edit: whoops, I thought it was already out but it looks like it might start filming next year.
C’mon
Rankin-Bass Rudolph or the list is bogus.
Same with National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation.
Original Grinch is best Grinch, but I’ll accept them as a duo.
Die Hard is as Christmas as it gets, so yipee kai ay motherfucker!
A Charlie Brown Christmas is a must.
Emmet Otter’s Jug Band is almost at that level of necessity, though maybe only for us gen-x kids.
Anything else is open for negotiations on my end, I ain’t mad at anyone else’s list beyond joking.
However, Frosty the Snowman, also a Rankin-Bass production is awesome, and any of their Christmas specials deserve at least an honorable mention.
If I got Heat Miser and Cold Miser I’m good.
Have you seen the LEGO Star Wars Holiday Special? Very fun.
My true Christmas watch list has Rudolph, Frosty the Snowman, and Santa Claus is Coming to Town from Rankin-Bass. It just seemed like flooding to put them all in there, so I just put my favorite.
- White Christmas
- Polar Express
- Will Vinton’s Claymation Christmas
- William Wegman’s 12 Days of Christmas
- Elf
- The Santa Clause
Santa’s Slay. It’s a B movie, and it knows it. But it’s good as long as you’re drinking spiked eggnog.
About 40% to 60% of Little Lord Fauntleroy, passively consumed because my dad turned on the TV for background ambiance while we’re both doing stuff on our laptops in his living room.
