Christmas/Holiday Movies

The Santa Clause wasn't bad, though.

I don't know if you guys know this, but most Christmas comedies really suck.

Rank the sucky Christmas comedies from worst to best.

Well, these are the three I recently watched:

3. Surviving Christmas
2. Christmas with the Kranks
1. Christmas Vacation

I haven't seen the first two but Christmas Vacation is pretty great.

Not great great. There are plenty of better movies. But it's funny and memorable and has tremendous replay value. I don't know. Maybe I don't demand much from National Lampoon.

It definitely has its moments. Randy Quaid is fan-fucking-tastic in it, but I always love him. But, overall, I think it's a very shoddy movie. Not terrible, but definitely not good.

maybe Deck the Halls is more your style

maybe Deck the Halls is more your style

The How Did This Get Made? episode was enough.

Yeah, I get that. I totally see what you mean. "Great" is hyperbole. It's not a great movie. But it's fun to watch, it makes me laugh, and I look forward to watching it around Christmas time every year. But that doesn't equate to "great."

"This is it. This is rock bottom."

Are you guys seriously breaking down the quality of Christmas comedies? Man, I thought I was in rough shape...

That's one of the all-time greatest moments on that show.

[LoathedVermin72]

Have you guys actually seen Christmas with the Kranks? It might legitimately be the most insane, bizarre, inexplicable movie I've ever seen. I can't figure out the motivations of anyone in that thing. It's pure madness. It's as if it's set on an alien planet or something.

[LoathedVermin72]

Pretty good John Grisham adaptation though.

[bada]

I like Elf.

I like Elf.

Elf is awesome. I'm a big fan of Elf, too.

[epilogue]

In no particular order, here are some Christmas Comedies that I adore and think are at least fun to great:

Christmas Vacation
Elf
Scrooged
Love Actually
Bad Santa
A Christmas Story
Home Alone
Home Alone 2
The Family Stone
The Holiday
Mixed Nuts
Ernest Saves Christmas
Four Christmases
The Muppet Christmas Carol

[LoathedVermin72]

Elf
Scrooged
Home Alone
Home Alone 2
The Holiday
Mixed Nuts

Yeah, these are good.

[epilogue]

Also Gremlins and The Nightmare Before Christmas, if those count as comedies.

[E.H. Ruddock]

Elf
Scrooged
Home Alone
Home Alone 2
The Holiday
Mixed Nuts

Yeah, these are good.

Ok, so there are 5 so far you like, what's with your original statement then?
