Spirited was great. I mean everyone here on RM will hate it. But it's great.
I quite enjoyed it

We're watching the Rankin and Bass Rudolph. I love it so much. No matter how many times I watch it, I always find the reindeer games scene with the coach to be so funny. When the coach says, "I don't just wanna be your coach. I wanna be your paaaal."
Why oh why did we talk like that? So weird.
I'm referring to the inflection. He sounds like a mobster.

I watched Santa Claus Conquers the Martians on Amazon tonight. That's not making the list.

I've only watched The Holdovers and Gremlins this year. As per tradition I'll watch Jingle all the Way on Christmas Day and I'll probably watch Christmas with the Kranks on Christmas Eve.

Tři oříšky pro Popelku (a Czech movie) is my favorite. Watch it every year.
It’s A Wonderful Life and Die Hard are the Christmas movies I have given the highest rating.
I used to see a Norwegian movie called Reisen Til Julestjernen each year in the cinema as a kid. Now it’s on tv around noon on Christmas Eve, and the tv is usually on when it airs.
We now watch the first Harry Potter every year during Christmas.

I saw this once and loved it. It would be in my five along with Love, Actually, Home Alone 2, Christmas Vacation, and maybe the Daddy’s Home movie that was set during Christmas.

Wouldn’t we have to watch the first Bad Moms movie beforehand so we wouldn’t be lost?

Saw Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence yesterday, before everyone else had woken up. Good movie, but did not get in a Christmas spirit.
Then Gremlins as others were starting to wake up. A classic from my childhood. Christmas spirit? So so.
Had on Mickey’s Once Upon A Christmas later in the day, and it was a winner.
Finally watched The Family Stone after being out most of the day. Didn’t love it, but at least now I’ve seen it. Always happy to see Craig T. Nelson.
Will see Tri Orisky Pro Popelku (Three Wishes For Cinderella, 1973) at 11am like every Christmas Eve.
