- Ω - Posted December 6, 2021 Report Share Posted December 6, 2021 << WHY YES >> Quote <<< My YouTube Page >>> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrossBow Posted December 6, 2021 Report Share Posted December 6, 2021 (edited) @- Ω - has already shared the link on why it is considered to officially be one. But I've also considered any movie that takes place during the Holiday season to be a movie of that Holiday season if that makes sense? Gremlins also qualifies to me as being a Christmas movie because again, it takes place during the Christmas holiday in the movie.

TrekMD Posted December 6, 2021 Report Share Posted December 6, 2021 There are plenty of debates about this. For me it is a movie that takes place during Christmas but it is not a traditional Christmas movie. Quote 🖖 Going to the final frontier, gaming...

intellicolecovisonary Posted December 6, 2021 Report Share Posted December 6, 2021 (edited) We need more Christmas movies about disfuctional families like A Christmas Story, Christmas Vacation, A Merry Friggin' Christmas or Santa Claus Conquers The Martians Edited December 6, 2021 by intellicolecovisonary DegasElite 1 Quote ⚠️ THIS MEMBER HAS BEEN BANNED FOR THE FOLLOWING INCIDENT:https://forums.atari.io/topic/6133-my-secret-identity-is-known-as-astomiman-destroyer-of-worlds/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

intellicolecovisonary Posted December 6, 2021 Report Share Posted December 6, 2021 I think the bigger question here is can Bruce Willis act?

RickR Posted December 6, 2021 Report Share Posted December 6, 2021 The holiday season triggers many people. Die Hard has many guns with triggers. Therefore, it is a Christmas movie. Atari 5200 Guy, TrekMD and MaximumRD 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaximumRD Posted December 9, 2021 Report Share Posted December 9, 2021 (edited) Traditional. perhaps not, though watching every holiday season since release has been my tradition and I feel something missing without it. For myself personally though it will always be a "Christmas" movie for me, beyond many of the arguments given either way, though it released months before in Canada the Christmas theme must of been strong even then as a friend and I went to watch a special screening of it on, you guessed it, Christmas Eve in a large downtown theater in Toronto Canada. It was packed and brightly lit and decorated for Christmas including a huge indoor tree all decked out so as we proceeded to watch the movie I felt very much the Christmas "spirit" as all of us came together in the joy of celebrating this awesome action standard setting film.

I always thought it was about Thanksgiving. Maybe, it's both Thanksgiving and Christmas.

intellicolecovisonary Posted December 9, 2021 Report Share Posted December 9, 2021 I thought wrong, you are right (Mandela Effect?). It aired Nov 17 so it must be primarily a Thanksgiving special. I always thought it was (incorrectly) a Chrstmas special. I thought I remembered some sort of Wookie version of Christmas in the special.

RickR Posted December 9, 2021 Report Share Posted December 9, 2021 It's neither Christmas or Thanksgiving....it's "Life Day". Frankly, I've seen it once and that's enough for my life. 😁 intellicolecovisonary and CrossBow 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
