25 Days of Christmas MOVIES Watchlist Challenge

[@bmg5015]

Pretty solid list. All those old stop motion specials were a staple in my house as a kid, and every year still. Such great classics

[@AVAPopCulture]

@bmg5015 thanks man! Yeah those will always be a staple for me in my house...they take me back so much...so many memories and nostalgia

[@chaddixson8398]

You serious Clark? Great list! I’ll start it off on Thanksgiving with Planes, Trains, and Automobiles. 😊

[@AVAPopCulture]

@chaddixson8398 thanks man! that one is at the tail end of my November watch list!

[@chaddixson8398]

@ yep, makes sense

[@timbrady3090]

Like your list but my favorites are The man who came to Dinner, Christmas in Connecticut, Arthur Christmas, A Charlie Brown Christmas, Deck the Halls, A Christmas Carol, Four Christmases, Holiday Inn, Holiday Affair, A Harold and Kumar Christmas, Jack Frost, Krampus, Love Actually, The Night Before, Nightmare Before Christmas, Reindeer Games, Unaccompanied Minors and We're no Angels. They are great movies 😊

[@devilshape6657]

I can't imagine A Christmas without watching The Polar Express. My all time favorite Christmas movie. You want to talk about your "cozy vibes" and stellar performance(s) by Tom Hanks. This belongs on every Christmas must watch list..... period. Lol

[@ashleyhirschi2270]

I've chosen Polar Express as my Christmas Eve watch before I go to sleep

[@devilshape6657]

Nice. It is so, so good! It's a family tradition in our home.

[@AVAPopCulture]

@devilshape6657 we watch it here for sure but it has never been the same hit in this house for whatever reason! But we do have it and watch it!

[@sammyswish]

lame

[@Mike_Webb78]

Man I was about to flip out on you when I didn’t see A Christmas Story!😂😂

[@AVAPopCulture]

It occupies a different spot in my Christmas rotation than with a lot of folks lol

[@amysson5151]

Great list. You have all my favorites and introduced me to eight bit Christmas. I like how you place movies together on a buddy system and end on the 25th with It’s a wonderful life. Looking forward to your Christmas horror movie list.

[@anthonymerchant2597]

So after watching Brazil last night, I realized it's also a Christmas film that nobody thinks of as one, but throughout the whole thing there's dozens of examples of it taking place around Christmas. One of the films I have to watch for Christmas now is Violent Night, lol you pulled it out as I was typing this. I find it hilarious and I love it, too. My wife and I both love Scrooged, that my personal favorite for that story for a different adaptation that holds up really well.

[@AVAPopCulture]

@@anthonymerchant2597 still gotta see that one!

[@Horrorgirl-dv3ou]

There was a few I hadn't heard of absolutely love the Muppet Christmas carol

[@benbelzer8303]

Me too, that Muppets is a classic!! I used to watch the 24 hours of A Christmas Story every year too...I'm not as crazy about it anymore , but that family is cute.

[@AVAPopCulture]

@Horrorgirl-dv3ou oh wow! Glad I could put some new ones on there for you to discover!! Love Muppets Christmas Carol too!

[@dukesilversurfer8186]

“The thermostat is a sacred covenant, I can’t believe we are even talking about this!” lol so funny. Another one I like that takes place in the 80’s and is a very underrated movie. “ The Feast of The Seven Fishes”

[@AVAPopCulture]

@@dukesilversurfer8186 that scene is absolutely fantastic and hilarious every time!!!

[@beccac5259]

I agree on a lot of those on your list. I have to add a few more though. A Bad Mom's Christmas The Preacher's Wife Christmas Comes to Willow Creek A Madea Christmas Call Me Clause The Night They Saved Christmas A Smokey Mountain Christmas A Christmas Card(Yes Hallmark) The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year( Also Hallmark) But it has Henry Winkler!!

[@benbelzer8303]

The Preacher's Wife. I remember when that came out! Whitney was in her element with the church choir. 😊

[@AVAPopCulture]

@juliabalogh9282 thank you! We watch those too lol! Movies on all the time during this time of year!

[@benbelzer8303]

We were big Prancer watchers when I was growing up! 😊 I always liked the Tales from the Crypt Santa episode "And All Through the House". Axe wielding escape mental patient.😊

[@AVAPopCulture]

@@benbelzer8303 prancer is underrated!

[@tyroneszili537]

I grew up in Cleveland, Ohio, so we always watch, a Christmas story, lived no to far from where it was filmed and used to go downtown to see the store fronts

[@fiv3f33tund3r]

Idk why Prancer is such a dad movie! My Dad always watches Prancer and Prancer Returns around Xmas (caught him crying once or twice). The Night Before has been on my recent cycle for Xmas movies every year! It's insanely hilarious and great cast. Klaus on Netflix is also a recent one on my rewatch December list. Beautiful animated movie that nobody talks about. Love how much you talk about your family. I'm currently deployed doing Helene recovery work and miss my kids so much this time of year. Won't be home until December 18th. Only thing I'm looking forward to right now is seeing Christmas Vacation in theaters this Sunday. Keep the videos coming!

[@benbelzer8303]

If I remember correctly, Sam Elliott is a widowed father in Prancer. He's lonely too. Good father. It's a bit of a tearjerker scenario. The manly man, who's grouchy.

[@filmfuchs85]

[@AVAPopCulture]

@@filmfuchs85 it is coming!

[@marco_lonestarr]

Great movie Christmas list. The Family Man is definitely underrated. Watch it every year. Christmas Vacation is a must. Just picked up the steelbook. Gremlins is underage during the holidays as well. Happy holidays.

[@sallyannchappell5671]

Sounds like I need to settle in for December with your list and I think I will be having a jolly double feature Christmas. I live in Australia and my house gets pretty hot in December so I’ll need to stock up on libations. With luck, December won’t be spoiled by bushfires this year. Merry Christmas to you and your family, merry Christmas to all your subscribers too. May their numbers increase exponentially over the holiday season.

[@AVAPopCulture]

@@sallyannchappell5671 thank you so much! Merry Christmas to you and your family! I couldn't imagine Christmas being in the summer!!! It just seems wrong lol

[@katiejackson2178]

Hey Chase, I love your list! There's only a few that I haven't seen on here. I'll definitely have to try to get some time and watch them this year. National Lampoons Christmas Vacation is my favorite Christmas movie too. I love it so much! It always makes me laugh. I have a similar memory of watching The Santa Clause with my mom in the theater just one week before my little sister was born. It's still a favorite in our house. Of course It's A Wonderful Life is amazing. I didn't really start appreciating it until I was a bit older. I remember always falling asleep as a kid on Christmas Eve when my family would watch it and waking up to George running through town at the end. 😂 I had a suggestion for another list. A Christmas TV Special List. There where so many Christmas Episodes of shows back in the day, I'd be interested to see a list of the ones you watch each year.

[@benbelzer8303]

There's a great Xmas episode of Roseanne where David ends up moving in and getting away from his abusive mom. It actually shows that clip on the TV of George running through the streets!

[@katiejackson2178]

@benbelzer8303 My favorite Christmas episode of Roseanne. David doesn't move in with the Conners in that episode but it wasn't long after that.

[@benbelzer8303]

@@katiejackson2178 I love the Thanksgiving episode where they find out about the dad's affair. And the one where Bev said Roseanne would always be a good mommy because she made mud pies as a kid. Lol. And the Thanksgiving where Nana Mary talks about Bev getting knocked up with Roseanne before she was ever married. ☺️

[@AVAPopCulture]

@katiejackson2178 sounds like we had some very similar memories and experiences! I love that! The nostalgia and power of those memories connected to those movies cannot be overstated! They take me back there every time...

[@CollectorKev]

[@salmanmunawar1]

There is so much see, I have only seen half of the movies on your Xmas list.

[@AVAPopCulture]

@@salmanmunawar1 that is good! Lots of new stuff to experience!!!

[@ashleyhirschi2270]

Such a great list!! I've started watching the Polar Express on Christmas Eve just before going to bed. I somehow knew you were going to add Ernest Saves Christmas! I grew up watching Frosty the Snowman from Rankin-Bass. I LOVED Violent Night, I'm not much for action movies but there are some i enjoy like the Mummy with Brendan Fraser. Hurts for me to say but I had abdominal surgery at the end of July from finally having a hiatal hernia repaired so i need to avoid Home Alone and Home Alone 2 at all costs! So some of these i may have to adjust so my stomach isn't aching for 7+ days of so much laughing.

[@AVAPopCulture]

@ashleyhirschi2270 thank you! Ugh! I have dealt with a hiatal hernia for most of my adult life - food feels like it gets stuck sometimes and it causes so much trapped gas pain in my chest sometimes - I have to keep seltzer water around for rescue burps lmao... take care of it and don't laugh too hard!!!

[@ashleyhirschi2270]

@AVAPopCulture I would have thought you would have mentioned a Christmas story, but then you said it isn't a favorite. I didn't feel alone! It's definitely something I could put on in the background to get the Christmas vibes! Last year, just before Thanksgiving, I drank almost a whole gallon of milk in under 24 hours just from heartburn being so bad, and I'm allergic to milk! I didn't feel my reaction until a month later. I was eating ramen noodles, and I felt like I had swallowed rocks and needed to go to the ER. Esophagus dilation and other testing were needed. It turns out everything was barely going into my stomach, just slowly dripping. The surgeon I was sent to, he didn't want to do surgery, but he had no choice. Now my biological father and his older brother are now just having similar problems... yeah, it's crazy! Last week I was watching a movie with Barry Corbin in it, I laughed way too hard and it's been hurting from the laughing a week later!

[@Seather17]

You are missing Kiss Kiss Bang Bang. It could fit in with Lethal Weapon, Shane Black really likes setting his scripts at Christmas time.

No A Christmas Carol ? I’m from the UK and on Christmas Eve I always watch a lot of different versions of A Christmas Carol . Scrooged, the Disney one with Jim Carrey, the Muppets one and I finish my night with the old black and white one starring Alastair Sim that’s my favourite version . Also must watch The Polar Express and Santa Claus the Movie . Great watchlist , many many of my favourites on there .

[@AVAPopCulture]

@@sparky7776 I have Scrooged as my version of A Christmas Carol for this! 🎅😁

[@handsomestik]

I have a double feature that no one talks about but they are Christmas films. We’re No Angels from 1953 with Humphrey Bogart and it got remade in 1990 with Sean Penn and Robert Deniro. Original is way better but remake isn’t that bad either.
