You will not be disappointed. I promise. I give you my word.
Krampus (2015)
Trust me.
This is a great movie for Christmas or a random Tues in the middle of June.

Krampus occupies the bizarre space of holiday horror. In that arena it is i suppose an okay movie but even thats a stretch. Making some best Christmas movie ever thread over it is terrible.

Yeah bad Santa is prob number 3 but its not as good as the classics and you can't show it to kids when they still have that Christmas magic.

I'm irritated at the number of good Christmas movies not available to stream.
The Disney classics are on Disney + (Home Alone, Polar Express) but other than that there is dog shit in terms of streaming selection.

Not all kids can watch krampus, but it's def a Christmas movie.
I guess my thing is just because it's on or around Christmas does not mean it's a Christmas movie. Just because there's a Christmas party does not make it a Christmas movie.
I feel like for a movie to be labeled a Christmas movie the main plot has to cover Christmas and at least 60% of the movie needs to be Christmas.

I get what you mean but the Christmas theme (and references) were throughout in Die Hard, right up to the end when they even closed with the final credits with "Let it Snow". When the limo driver picked him up from the airport they listened to a Run DMC Xmas song in the car. John McClane (Bruce Willis) even killed one of the dudes and sent his corpse down the elevator with a Santa's hat and "ho ho ho" written on his chest to the Christmas party for everyone to see 

That has to count for something
Here's an article that counted at least 50 Christmas references in the roughly 2 hour film.
https://nofilmschool.com/Die-Hard-Christmas-Examples
That's a lot of Christmas references for a non-Christmas movie. True the main plot is about a heist and a lone rogue off duty cop who takes on an army of thieves by himself but the only reason they were there in the building was because of his wife's company's Christmas party...so I therefore deem Die Hard a fully legitimate Christmas movie

This has been one of my family faves Christmas movie.

Watched it this year after not seeing it for quite some time and I have to confess, this damn cartoon made me a little teary eyed. I'm not completely sure if it was the story itself or just the memories of watching it with my kiddos when they were kiddos.

I mean i saw it when i was like 13 too but i guess i was thinking like little kid.
Ot i wasnt thinking.
I hear ya guys.
I never thought of die hard as a christmas movie. Plus the the third one was better.
I do like the thought whoever said the movies gotta be centered and about christmas.
But fuck. I guess its just a shroomery thread...
I cant even think of a christmas movie besides a christmas story.
I use to hate watching that movie...
After like 20 years watching it every damn christmas at my aunts... Its grown on me
Damn ima miss my family so much this christmas. Gonna be spending it alone this holiday. Hopefully at least see my daughter

Kirk Cameron's Saving Christmas movie should be mentioned
The movie slogan is "put the Christ back in Christmas"

It scored the rare but very coveted zero percent critics rating at Rotten Tomatoes
https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/kirk_camerons_saving_christmas
Actually they should watch this on Discord movie night during Christmas week

A Christmas Story is the correct answer here. Home Alone is also acceptable.

I didn't know that, but surely it's terrible, and not worth watching. There was another "sequel" to A Christmas Story called "My Summer Story"...which is also likely a terrible movie.

I've been really pushing for Die Hard but must admit the A Christmas Story is without a doubt the quintessential Christmas movie. I think we can all aggree that Santa Claus Conquers the Martians circa 1964 is not only the worst Christmas movie ever but also the worst movie ever.

This is one of those movies that only works with the assistance of Mystery Science Theater.

It's all subjective and really just depends on the OPs mood and how he decides to change the state of said thread.

Last year I watched Home Alone during Christmas. Wanted to feel nostalgic. This year I'm watching...(drumroll):
Bad Santa
Can y'all believe it, I've actually never watched it (I have seen bits and pieces). So I'm making it a point to watch that one this year. I'm a big Billy Bob Thornton fan now -- I always thought decently enough of him as an actor but after seeing his Amazon series "Goliath" (so much fun) and his villain role in season 1 of Fargo (one of the more memorable villains ever), I am a big fan now and have chosen Bad Santa this year as my Christmas film.

When you first posted the thumbnail, I mixed up Kirk Cameron with Christian Slater and I thought the movie might be half watchable. But that looks like such trash. They couldn't even make it seem like it had a story for the trailer. Two guys are bitching in a car about people saying Season's Greetings and shit, and then inexplicably they are entertaining a church youth group or something with shitty physical comedy? I don't have the faintest clue what else they would fill up the length of a feature length movie with except that it would be boring as fuck. Flashback scenes I guess?

I'm inclined to agree. I would recommend they squeeze in a murder somewhere. A drug deal gone wrong. Or maybe a steamy affair where Kirk Cameron's character's wife cheats on him with the neighbor who attends the party. Make it a threesome with tasteful erotic nudity.

I would say Planes,Tains and Automobiles... but that movie takes place at Thanksgiving.
Tangerine maybe... certainly good enough to merit a watch (adults only) Edward Scissorhands (not sure it counts, but Die hard has been given the green light.) RARE EXPORTS: A CHRISTMAS TALE (Adult, won't ruin it but contains horror for those who dislike the genre) Already mentioned Trading Places.. 'nough said Sure its mentioned Scrooged.. again 'nough said and I'll end on high note Batman Returns.
