Whatcha watching? ๐
Hey hey everyone, is it too early to start binging on the cliche netflix christmasyyy rom coms already? I think not!๐
One of my favorite things to do during these last two months of the year is to watch the Christmasyy themed movies, and if it's a cliche rom-com, then it's even better!๐ฅฐ
I did see a few recently added titles on Netflix (likely on other streaming platforms too) and I think "it's beginning to look like Christmas" lol, but haven't watched any yet, sooooo would love any recommendations, for such movies, themed around Christmas, holidays, festive cheer, rom-com etc all things wholesome and loving!๐ฅฐ
Any all-time Christmas favorite movies?๐ฎ
Feel free to share any recommendations, old as well as new, and for any streaming platforms other than netflix also!๐
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou Sun, I don't know if you are open to cartoons but there is this Christmas movie called "Annabelle's Wish". It is from the 90s but it was my favorite holiday movie growing up. I watched it as a tradition of mine every year, especially when my kids were younger. I quit celebrating all holidays a few years ago, but I still watch it once a year. Like I said, it was a movie that came out when I was a little kid but it is just so heartfelt and beautiful. Anyone with a heart will shed some kind of tears, especially at the end. Maybe with a Google search you may find where you can watch it for free. Lol. As far as Netflix goes, recently I watched "Hot Frosty" and it was a sweet movie. Don't know what kind of movies you are into, lol, but I thought it was a good, in the Christmas spirit, kinda movie. :)ย
PS: This is Annabelle's Wish.ย
@YourCaringConfidant
Aww this is tooo cute, yesss, cartoon and animated movies are welcome too.
Thank youuu for sharing, Desiree, I'll definitely check it out!๐ฅฐ
Ooh and Hot Frosty is one of the recently added to Netflix titles that I saw lol, added to my list too xD so will watch that as well!
I think, it's special to have our own traditions and create time to enjoy things we did as kids.ย
I do not celebrate Christmas, nor any of these later month festivities, in their traditional sense either, so honestly, watching these holiday-ee, Christmas-yy movies, sipping on hot chocolate and spending time wrapped in a cozy blanket is my personal "tradition" during this time of the year too.ย
Too many people confuse traditions and festive times to be all cheery and "merry" or that things should be a certain way only, but it doesn't have to be so always and it really isn't for everyone, so whatever feels comforting and warm to us, matters and doesn't even have to make sense to others. To each their own, always hehe.๐
Again, I appreciate your wholesome comment here and do hope you get to continue cherishing your personal traditions too.๐ค
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou

Aww Iโm blushing like a Christmas tree topper now!๐xD โค๏ธ๐ค Anddd I love you more.. to the North Pole and backk โ on loop, no joke!๐๐ย
Donโt worry, Iโm channeling all your holiday cheer vibes to get through this work chaos.. which is probably the real villain in this Christmas story. XD :pย
Please do keep bingeing for both of us while I plot my escape from all of these xD xD
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou
All time favorite Christmas movies? Hereโs what I can currently think of off the top of my head.
Nightmare Before Christmas - itโs partly a Halloween movie too but itโs still a good Christmas movieย
Toy Story which I count as a Christmas movie bc the last scene of it is a Christmas sceneย
Batman Returns is a Batman/comic book/DC themed Christmas movie. While I like the previous 1989 Batman movie more, this one is still good.ย
@akunknown
Soo many classics here again, thank you for sharing! And I love toy story!๐
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou
Youโre welcome! Since you โค๏ธ Toy Story I know youโll enjoy that. Hope you enjoy the other two also!!!ย
@akunknown
Aw thanks, feel free to share more recommendations here anytime!๐ค
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou
I will. Thank you.
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou. I saw The Merry Gentleman โ on Netflix. It was cute and heartwarming. Iโm not sure if this needs a trigger warning but there are men who dance with their shirts off.
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou. I love love the holiday christmas movies. Every year I wait for them and binge watch. Sometimes I thank my brain for forgetting the plot of some movies so I get to re-watch them, heheehe. Best time of the year ๐ฅฐ๐ฅณ๐ฅฐ๐ฅณ๐ฅฐ๐ฅณ๐ฅฐ๐ฅฐ๐ฅณ

For me, it's not Christmas until I see Hans Gruber fall from the top of Nakatomi Plaza in the movie Die Hard. Not only that, but being an anime fan, one of my favorite anime movies takes place during Christmas. It's called Mobile Suit Gundam Wing: Endless Waltz. If you've ever seen that movie, you'll know what I mean when I say that it isn't Christmas until Wings zero confirms the shelter Shield is activated.
๐๐ Happy New Year ๐ ๐ย
I do like the atmosphere of Christmas moviesย
I've always loved Oliver twist.ย I'll think of some more today...๐ค
