Christmas Films New and Old . Time for a list !

[70isaLimitNotaTarget]

Yes the Hallmark Channel will be bustin' with all the CCF (Cheesey Christmas Films) of which there will be a gem or two .

This year we're going to see "Violent Night" it's along the lines of "Nobody" and "DeadPool" (two of DH and DS favourite films) not one you'd autmatically think Oh how festive but the trailers looked good .

My favourites are
Lost Christmas (Eddie Izzard film)
Last Christmas (Emma Thompson and Emilia Clarke which got slated but is quite funny)
Angels In The Snow (Kirsty Swanson) bit sad/bit preachy /annoying child . Perfect Christmas fodder

So , films Old&New

Gems and Turkeys

Ooh, great idea for a thread.

<that's me placemarked >

My favourites are:
Holidate- Emma Roberts, love her
The Holiday - perfect festive cringe fest
The Night Before Christmas - Seth Rogan
The Grinch - Pharrel Williams version
Both Christmas Chronicles films
Polar Express
Trading Places
This year we are introducing the kids to Gremlins...

Home Alone!

The Snowman has to be in there, too.

Die hard
its a wonderful life

White Christmas
Polar Express

Office Christmas Party.
The Family Man.
Die Hard.

My favourite is Love Hard - rom com with a bit of style and a brilliant PC version of Baby It's Cold Outside

It's a Wonderful Life is a classic
so is any version of A Christmas Carol

I love some of those cheesy hallmark style ones where a woman moves to a New England town to open a book/cupcake/toyshop and knows no one but ends up in love and adored by everyone just in time for Christmas Eve

A Child’s Christmases in Wales starring Ruth Jones.

Really touching film, it’s somehow not available on DVD for a reasonable price, I’m not sure if there were copyright issues or something?

Are we including Christmas episodes too? If so, I’ll start off with The Good Life.

Favourites -

It’s a Wonderful Life
Serendipity
Home Alone

A Child’s Christmases in Wales starring Ruth Jones

Ohh and Paul Kaye - not seen this for ages !.

The Greatest Store in the World, usually watched on a dodgy YouTube copy because you can't get a copy legally (I wrote to the BBC asking them to put it on iPlayer or release a dvd but they said no, so I feel no guilt).

Muppet Christmas Carol.

Whatever cheesy Christmas romcom is released on my streaming services (with titles like The Lost Twin Prince's Holiday Swap).

The Snowman and The Snowman and the Snowdog.

Die Hard

And I do really like Nativity.

Oh films...

I have a speadsheet

Too many to mention but I watched My Dads Christmas Date on Prime yesterday and its set in York so lots of lovely york Xmas market etc. Story a bit so-so but setting made up for it.

Love Bad Moms Christmas.

The holiday!
It's a constant for my non celebratory Christmas period... however I should really watch the grinch, I relate more to him than people in love! :-)

No one's mentioned National Lampoons...? Also, Arthur Christmas.
