Your Terrible Christmas Film Recommendations

I bet I can just think of any christmas phrase and it will have already been turned into a christmas movie. . .
You know like - Deck the halls, Jingle all the way.


Santa Baby (this would be a good one, you know, like the Boss Baby)
Holy / unholy night
Christmas Fairy (also good)
Last Christmas
Drivin' home for Christmas
Tis the season
But once a year (Hunky magical guy / ghost of dead lover appears, but only 'once a year' on Christmas day)
Naughty or nice (or Naughty and nice - Christmas porn)
Jolly Holly (about a woman named holly who loses her Christmas spirit, but regains it by the end of the movie)
A merry little Christmas (With Warwick Davis?)
Comfort / Discomfort and Joy (about a woman named Joy who becomes uncomfortable with Christmas consumerism, but regains her faith in capitalism by the end of the movie)
Oh come let us adore him (one Christmas hunk whose affections are being fought over by three women . . . or just porn).
Pa ra pa pum pum.
Etc etc
I wish it could be Xmas every day would be an amazing horror film - or possibly a seasonal remake of Groundhog Day - you choose.

That one's actually not that bad!
 

Still loads of missing elements there, the cute pre-teen offspring desperate for a Mom, the old secretive guy who looks suspiciously like Santa, gruff old Dad, being stranded in the boondocks, convenient amnesia, mistaken identity and of course the minor understanding that nearly wrecks their newfound happiness but could have been avoided had they been honest with each other from the start.

That's very specific.
 
It's got everything you'd ever wish for in a Christmas Movie and much more besides! :D

It's got Emma Thompson in full-on scene-chewing mode FFS!
My 'friend' made me go and see it for her birthday. Same one who made me go and see Mamma Mia 2 even though I hadn't seen the first one. I hate to think how much worse it'd have been without the pre-drinking.

We don't really go to the cinema together these days.
 
It's got refugees, life-threatening illnesses, a homeless drop in centre and an over-the-top tacky Christmas-themed shop run by Michelle Yeoh.
It's a good film though it's not really a romcom Xmas or otherwise.
Henry Golding and Michelle Yeoh were in Crazy Rich Asians a year earlier (where she played his Mum). That's another good film as well though films about rich people finding happiness aren't too compatible with the Urban mindset.

I went to see sing a long Mamma Mia with a group of friends. We did cocktail happy hour first and it was such a brilliant night. We laughed and laughed until we were in pain. One friend was getting looks so she had to go outside to calm down. 😄
 
Next up: A Very Nutty Christmas
IMG_4694.png
“Hard-working bakery owner Kate Holiday, has more cookie orders than she has time to fill this holiday season, and when her boyfriend suddenly breaks up with her, any shred of Christmas joy she was hanging onto, immediately disappears. After Kate hangs the last ornament on the tree and goes to bed, she awakens the next morning to a little bit of Christmas magic. She gets the surprise of her life when Chip, a handsome soldier who may or may not be the Nutcracker Prince from Tchaikovsky’s “The Nutcracker,” appears in her living room.”

Ohhh it's got Sabrina the teenage witch in it.
There's a film called The Christmas Parade on channel 5 at the moment, I'm going to watch it on +1 in a moment.
