Debate: Christmas movies on Christmas?
- Thread starter Poppy98
- Start date
Christmas movies has just hit right on Christmas Although I would say earlier in the day is ideal for me
For me Christmas Eve night the best watching movies but Christmas morning there’s something about that too. That is great.
I guess one is for the anticipation and the other is for the mood

tangent, but does your profile pic have an American girl doll?
Edit: I don't recognize the dress, did you make it?
Yes, it’s the American girl Galinda doll
The dress is from American girl
Princess Viola
Celebrating the birth of Christ!
ain't no problem with doing that in my book. in fact i think watching a christmas movie or some christmas specials after christmas dinner is a pretty comfy thing.
How long have you followed the line?
Do you have favorites?
I have known about an American girl dolls since about seven years old. My first one was about when I was eight I believe in 2007
My first one was Samantha
Of course, and you have to remember that traditionally, Christmas continues until Epiphany on Jan 6th, so you know, keep watching Christmas movies and making gingerbread houses til then!
Thus far, it would appear that we are unanamously approving of watching Christmas shows on Christmas.
The real "debate" just may be whether or not this has really been a debate.
Well, see, I don't generally watch Christmas movies/shows after it has become Christmas. To me it's a gear-shifting tool. I really thought it was going to be pretty universal: Christmas movies until Christmas, then you might watch a movie if you got it for Christmas, but it probably wasn't Christmas-themed.Thus far, it would appear that we are unanamously approving of watching Christmas shows on Christmas.

So, I'll have to add my blacksheep vote.
Where do y'all find time to watch movies during Christmas season?! I'm always so overloaded on cooking and socializing that I'd rather sneak off and take a nap than watch a movie.
However, if I did watch a movie, it would be "A Christmas Story", about 9-year-old Ralphie Parker who wants an official Red Ryder Carbine Action 200 shot Range Model air rifle for Christmas. It always makes me laugh.

It's just my parents and I and the pets. It's not like anyone would be coming over or anything.
Krampus
Die Hard
Long Kiss Goodnight
Gremlins
Kiss Kiss Bang Bang
Usually wind up watching the night before on Festivus Eve as my wife hates all of them and I wait until she goes to bed. Festivus Day is too busy with cooking and chores and such.
I don't watch Christmas movies specifically. It is quite opposite: Usually I have to skip my ritualistic movie evening completely at Christmas Eve, because of family gathering, and it feels horrible.
But I do like to know that they show Xmas-movies at Xmas.
Also, I think it is thematically correct to show Die Hard and The Hangover, but I didn't approve showing Blues Brothers and Blood Diamond at such special day

Oh absolutely! And I like to keep going until Candlemas (February 2nd.)
Christmas movies have become anathema to me. To me they are cloying and silly. No offense to anyone who enjoys them, but they are all so artificial and removed from reality. My christmases were never like they are portrayed in films. Even christmas horror is off my list.
I will occasionally watch something brand new if it is not the usual peace on earth goodwill toward humanity, but it has to be radically different from the usual fair and there has not been anything like that in years. I just find that the usual films presented, starting at the beginning of November, stultify and create the opposite mood of what was intended.
This attitude is due to a number of factors, age being one of them, but at the bottom of it all is a disdain for the holidays. HAH BUMHUG, I say!! I am too familiar with the genre to find anything interesting or uplifting about it any more.
