non traditional Christmas movies

08njSTEP · 12-20-2016, 08:03 PM

It's that season for Christmas movies. Let's change it up a bit and list movies that take place during Christmas, but are NOT about Santa and chestnuts roasting.
I'll start with these
Die Hard
The Sure Thing
The Family Man

So what you got?

Thxrick · 12-20-2016, 08:05 PM

The Ref
Gremlins
Silent Night Deadly Night

Beartato · 12-20-2016, 08:11 PM

The only one that comes to mind is Die Hard, but it's already been said

Fundguy1 · 12-20-2016, 08:20 PM

The Shinning - lots of snow
Die Hard 2 - the forgotten Die Hard Christmas movie
Eyes Wide Shut - nothing like infidelity to get you in the spirit of giving... during Christmas.
Lord Of The Rings - elves
The Matrix - Neo is literally Jesus
Go - ever taken ecstasy on Christmas?
Scott Pilgrim Vs The World - snow
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind - snow

Love Actually

08njSTEP · 12-21-2016, 06:15 AM

Can't believe I forgot Eyes Wide shut as I just watched it last week. The last Kubrick film.

1and1 · 12-21-2016, 07:46 AM

lolz- need to balance my karma for the bad santa entry, so here, have-

The Family Stone

There, karma balanced.

F30lolz · 12-21-2016, 09:42 AM

End of Days, though that was mainly about New Years.

MightyMouseTech · 12-21-2016, 09:46 AM

Santa and his Naughty Helpers 6.

Actually, all 1-7 are good.

I prefer "Mrs. Clause Bares All 14", truly a timeless classic.

08njSTEP · 12-21-2016, 10:17 AM

Well if we're going down that road I have Jingle Balls 4 to add. The franchise really came up to speed with #4.

KingOfJericho · 12-21-2016, 10:32 AM

Glad someone said Love Actually before me...

CANGRKE70 · 12-21-2016, 11:55 AM

Die Hard 1&2 is a family tradition at my house.

My BIL comes dressed in a wife beater and no shoes and says Yippee-ki-yay, motherfucker a lot. Not sure if he's just being super meta or just a hobo.

CANGRKE70 · 12-21-2016, 12:01 PM

Oh and this classic.

If you're taking us that route...Winter Wonderbang and Naughty or Nice, She's getting it twice are award winning classics. The Tits that saved Christmas just didn't live up to the hype.

Maynard · 12-21-2016, 12:29 PM

Wasn't Planes Trains and Automobiles about getting home for Christmas? Surely one of the best anti-car movies ever (I've heard that the Big 3 forced them to create a bastard car that purposely did not look like anything they had for sale).

And anything by John Waters, especially the B&W early ones (because I'll take any excuse to show people things like Pink Flamingos or Mondo Trasho).
