Guilty pleasure Christmas movies

[Dragonsfrontooth]

Is it too early for a Christmas film thread?

A sick dc means I've been up since 5.30am so I just gave up and got up and decided to break the Christmas movie seal!

It was actually pretty good and I'd recommend, a bit of a different twist which was good. Journey back to Christmas with Candace CB on My5.

I love Christmas With the Kranks, Mickey's Christmas Carol and The Family Stone

I have edited this because I posted on the wrong thread sorry

I thought The Holiday was utter wank, personally.

My favourite is Home Alone 2. Watched it a couple of weekends ago when I was sick in bed. Will watch it again nearer Christmas. Love every minute of it.

Muppets Christmas Castle

Love Actually and Bridget Jones Diary. Not very original, but well, it’s not even going to be Christmas until I’ve watched Love Actually ❤️

Last Christmas, cant believe its not been mentioned already! It's one of the most British Christmas movies since Bridget Jones. Comedy, love, magic and a bit of music. I watch it every year.

The Family Stone for me x

I also watch the family stone every year.
And the holiday, home alone and home alone 2.
While you were sleeping. The first Bridget Jones.
Your Christmas or mine.
Muppet's Christmas carol.
Christmas with the Coopers.
National Lampoon's Christmas vacation.
Christmas with the Kranks.
Elf.

While You Were Sleeping 🎄

Family For Christmas - Lacey Chabert
Snow Globe Christmas - Alicia De Witt
Your Christmas or Mine 1&2
The Family Man
The Family Stone
Muppet Christmas Carol

No one mentioning last year's Netflix contribution - Hot Frosty?

Die Hard!

The Holiday and Love Actually. So what if they're considered crap by the intellectual snobs; they're fun.

Dh loves all the prince/royalty cheesy ones where it’s the stuck up prince of Andora/Andaloosha/Angoria and they are always already engaged but he finds the protagonist is more his type. Dh says next week is start of Xmas movie week and is going to make me watch the princess switch ones 😂

How come the royal families in all of these movies speak proper English but the subjects in the country they rule over all speak with accents and look like something out of 1800s.

Oh and we enjoyed Hot Frosty too and the Lindsay Lohan one where she loses her memory.

I’ll be watching Vicar of Dibley Xmas specials whilst wrapping presents.

Castle? Castle?? I meant carol😂😂can't even see that it's a typo

Had forgotten Vicar of Dibley Christmas special, I think I need to watch again

I love a Christmas film.
It helps that I have a very low bar.

Some new ones coming out on Netflix.

Love Actually is what DD and I consider to be our Christmas film.

Elf.
White Christmas.

I’m just watching the Holiday Calendar - it’s only a few years old but I’ve watched it every Christmas since - it’s a modern classic!

My absolute favourite is Spirited and I love the soundtrack too.

Another long time fan of While You Were Sleeping which manages to be genuinely funny and sweet.

Elf, It's A Wonderful Life (which, when you think about it, is not a very Christmassy film), The Night Before and I adore Krampus.

A Christmas Prince on Netflix. We get together as a group of friends every year and BINGE.

Spoiler alert, the secret adoption papers are in the wooden acorn, in the spare log cabin palace which is only accessible by horse, because... American journalist, obvs.

Oh this is a great list - thanks

Yes! I've watched it the last couple of years. The Kat Graham one?

Thank you! Just the thing I was looking for! I was just thinking I hadn’t seen any new Christmas things on Netflix and was surprised as I feel they normally release them a bit earlier.

The Netflix list does look pretty good. They seem to be releasing at least one new film a week for the next month.

Hallmark will have to raise their 🎄 game!
