Any Good Christmas Movies?

[ResidentEvil7]

Christmas time at last! Besides the cold snowy, icy weather, Christmas is my favorite time of year and I love to watch classic movies and classic TV/cartoon shows. I know it's a bit juvenile, but I just put on Beauty And the Beast The Enchanted Christmas I had on Blu-Ray.

Anyway, does anyone know of any good Christmas movies or TV shows or TV episodes? Let's exclude the following, because I already have them:

A Christmas Story
I'll Be Home For Christmas - Jonathan Taylor Thomas version
The Santa Clause 1 - 3 with Tim Allen
Pee-Wee's Christmas Special
A Christmas Carol (1984, George C. Scott)
Beauty and the Beast The Enchanted Christmas
Home Alone 1, 2
National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation
Bad Santa 1, 2 (UNRATED)
Christmas With The Kranks
Deck The Halls
Edward Scissor-Hands
Jingle All The Way 1, 2
Look Who's Talking Now

Anyone know of anything outside of the above movies that are good and classical (pre-2000)?

- Rugrats: The Santa Experience (1992)
- A Garfield Christmas (1987)
- Simpsons: Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire (1989)

Those are the three I always recall. I'm not even nostalgic or grew up with them; They're just wholesome 80s-90s Christmas cartoons that I vibe with.

There are two types of people in the world, those who think that Die Hard is a Christmas movie and those who are wrong.

It’s not Christmas until you see Bruce Willis jump off the roof of Nakatomi Tower.

Does Gremlins count?

Yeah, I came to say Gremlins. It's a comedic horror film, naturally, but there's a whole lot of emphasis on Christmas, some of which genuinely cozy.

I'm a fan of Ernest Saves Christmas!

I know it was listed but Jingle All The Way will always be the goat Christmas movie to me. So funny.

I used to have a massive list of Christmas stuff to watch and read every December, but life is too busy now. But so far this year my son and I have watched:

TMNT 2003 “The Christmas Aliens”
Pokemon “Holiday Hi-Jynx” and “Snow Way Out”
Johnny Bravo Christmas
Power Rangers “Dreaming of a white ranger”
Mickey’s Christmas Carol
The Real Ghostbusters “Xmas marks the spot” (which features the late great Peter Reneday as Scrooge)


Still on my list:

Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmas
Rugrats “The Santa Experience”
Hey Arnold Christmas
Charlie Brown Christmas
Plus a couple baby things he likes. Thomas and Friends, Llama llama.

I’m sorry but are you trapped in 2006? lol

Nightmare Before Christmas
Muppets Christmas Carol(Any versions of Christmas Carol)
Die Hard
Violent night(If you wanna see Santa kick some ass)

Also why do you have Jingle All The Way 2 that movie is terrible. That movie has nothing to do with the first one at all

[ResidentEvil7]

Thanks for your help. Yeah, some of those I'd watch and some I don't find right for Christmas like Violent Night (which my sister made me watch last Christmas). I liked Violent Night, but I didn't find it appropriate for Christmas, because it felt like a Halloween movie. In fact, I don't care for the kind of Christmas movie that cross with Halloween.

I do have Mickey's Christmas Special. In fact, when I was a year or so old my mom recorded it for me and that, I thought, was the only version of A Christmas Carol there was, until I saw another version in 1993.

I have Jingle All the Way 2, because 2 years ago I saw it for the first time and I thought it was funny, because Larry The Cable Guy. It kind of is related to the first; a father trying to get the impossible-to-get toy for his child and going to extreme lengths to get it.

I'm a little embarrassed to say, but why should I when some of you guys mentioned The Rugrats and other kiddy cartoons?; I also like The Care Bears Nutcracker Suite. My all time favorite Care Bear is Grumpy Bear.

Frosty’s Winter Wonderland (1976) Direct sequel to original.

Not pre-2000...but

Legend of Frosty the Snowman (2005) In continuity but a separate story.
Surviving Christmas (2004). I know it bombed. I don’t care. I liked it.
The Grinch (2018 ). Couple of small complaints but really enjoyed it.

[ToTheNines]

Forgot to mention we’ve also watched Shrek the Halls, which was decent.

For more grownup stuff, That 70’s show always had great Christmas eps, and I’m pretty sure they’re all collected on one DVD. (Although I haven’t revisited this show since everything came out about half the cast).

Sopranos had a couple of great Christmas episodes.

My wife showed me a really good chick flick called The Family Stone that we used to watch every year. Great cast and a cute story.

Batman TAS Christmas with the Joker and Holiday Knights are both great. As is Justice League Comfort and Joy.

Four Christmases with Vince Vaughn and Reese Witherspoon is hilarious.

Elf is goat, obviously.

Married… with Children had great Chistmas episodes. Especially the one with Sam Kinison.

King of Queens and Everybody Loves Raymond.

It’s a TMNT forum, don’t let anyone break your balls lol.

[ResidentEvil7]

Yeah, I have Married with Children and I have been watching the Christmas episodes. It's funny that Al keeps letting his family down every Christmas. The one with Sam Kinison was good because Al couldn't get gifts for the family, so after an electric shock from his one Christmas light (a red one), he dreams of what life would be like if he had never been born and his guardian angel relates to his struggles in life to why he should live.

I can somewhat relate to Al Bundy. Al is the kind of guy who men, especially married men, can relate to.

I tried to watch The Rugrats Santa Experience on YouTube, but all there is, is 30 second clips in no order. I no longer want to TORRENT download movies and shows because no only is it illegal, but those files could come with viruses.

[ResidentEvil7]

I also forgot to mention some other cartoon shows I have and have been watching lately.

The Life And Adventures Of Santa Claus
Santa Claus Is Coming To Town
The Year Without A Santa

[Andrew NDB]

I'm beginning to get these "Santa Claus is secretly a badass killer" movies mixed up over the past few years.

[Wildcat]

So Frosty’s Winter Wonderland is not a direct sequel. Forgot Karen was not in it. It’s still in continuity it just focuses on Frosty wanting a wife.

They should make a live action Frosty. Surprised they haven’t done this before. CGI would pretty much just be snow. He’d blend perfectly.

Hell yeah bro, Al Bundy rules lol.

And I got you on the Rugrats: https://a.co/d/1uUNbEv


Pretty cheap and it has 6 other shows. Including the All Grown Up Christmas episode, as well as SpongeBob. Pretty much everything else was after my time.

The main reasons why I love Al Bundy is because he's so relatable to men, because we view Al's tough life as our own and that's what makes him funny. I love the NO MA'AM (National Organization Men Against Amazonian Masterhood club (now today is called MGTOW: Men Going Their Own Way). You can buy NO MA'AM T-shirts on eBay. It's also funny on how Al complains about how life sucks, and the adult jokes. One thing that sucks is that he keeps losing battles to that bi*ch neighbor Marcy. God, I hate that woman and her quest to making Al's life miserable!

I kind of live my life like Al if he was single and never married: drink beer while having my right hand down my pants; just want to have a good time; watch my favorite TV shows; have a pet to love.

Also, thanks for the link, but I don't buy physical copies of movies and shows anymore, because my new TV has my Apple TV library on it. So anytime I want to watch a movie, unless if it's on my flash drive as an MP4 file, I just watch it from the app. Lastly, I REFUSE to buy anything from Amazon, because of their retail monopoly on the economy; too many people lost their jobs and their businesses because Amazon got too big. Plus, Amazon, from what I hear from my mom, whom rented the place I live in now before me to this single woman, said that Amazon was her most brutal job because they treat you very badly for low pay. The only time I buy anything online is it can only be found online, such as my man cave decor, my wrestling brief trunks, old classic video games, games and Add-ons from the PlayStation Store.

Can’t believe I forgot to mention Beavis and Butthead “Huh-huh-humbug” and “It’s a miserable life” are both great.

Also me and the boy watched Sponge Bob “Christmas Who?” today. He loved it.
