Is it really PC to like any Movies these days?

It feels like people want other people to enjoy nothing in life.

I haven't seen Love Actually personally, but I did like the first Home Alone when I watched it for the first time a few years ago.

And if we count it, then I'm going for Die Hard as my favourite Christmas Movie.

Home Alone is hilarious. I always watch it on Christmas day

Gremlins is a christmas movie yes, it is set in christmas time


also the ''do you hear what i hear'' song such an iconic scene in that, when the gremlins put that on in Billy's house when they just hatched, with billy's mom

them eating the heads of the puppet cookies



----------
Die Hard is also set in christmas time, is a christmas tradition here in my nation's tv channel to show it around this time of year




-----

I like The Snowman animated short film.

I was looking around for a funny meme I saw about it the other day, but I can't find it.

Oh I, The Snowman is an annual watch

If you like a bit of Raymond Briggs. Then let me suggest to you "When the wind blows"

People moan all the time .

There was complaints of not enough diversity , but the only character people seem to remember is Peter played by chiwetel Ejiofor. They forget about The prime minister's secretary Annie played by Nina Sosanya & the erotic movie director Tony played by Abdul Salis.


I wonder how many people have watched the deleted scenes on dvd , there's a companionship they cut out between 2 older women, and one of them dies .I thought at first they were sisters...but I think it's implied it could be more. But neither of them are in the movie itself which is strange.

As for my favourite Christmas movies

Most of the Scrooge's / Christmas Carols
The Santa Clause
Jingle All The Way
Polar Express
I end up watching atleast 1 of the Home Alone's as it's usually on Christmas day

And for the first time in years I rewatched one called 'Greatest Store In the world ' ,which has a few familiar actors.

And plenty other Christmas movies aswell .

Glad to see someone mention Jingle All the Way.

My favourite line from that movie is when Arnie is cornered by the counterfeit toy peddlers who are all dressed like Santa just before they get raided by the police. And to escape he swipes a toy badge and pretends to be a cop. And then as he's leaving he calls out to the rest of the police: 'Alright, put them in a van and lock 'em up!'

…there is a Christmas movie called Noel…I don’t know why it’s remained lesser known because it’s such a strong Christmas story and very emotional….and the cast is exceptional…Susan Sarandon, Paul Walker, Penelope Cruz, Robin Williams, Alan Arkin….its not one that is shown very much through the Christmas period but I love it…it’s also one of my absolute favourites…
