The Great Christmas Movie Discussion!

(So we're all just about ready for Christmas. Trees done, house is decorated, and we have most of the gifts wrapped. I'm doing the last few when a thought comes to me...)

Me: hey guys...what are your favorite Christmas movies and why?

Karl: what's yours, buttercup?

Me: for me personally it's a toss up between Jack Frost and Last Christmas.

Elijah: Last Christmas? (Raises brow) are you serious?

Me: hey look that movie was one of the few made me cry my eyes out in the theater, so shush.

Astarion: personally I'm fond of the original home alone movies. Though I absolutely LOVED Violent Night. Controversial opinion but Black Christmas was a good one...and the original one, not the remake shit before anyone gets on my case about it.

Otto: eh, call me old fashioned, but I have a soft spot for It's a Wonderful Life. Though if we're going with more modern movies, Polar Express is pretty good for what it was.

Me: the story of that was good but the visuals throw me off....(shudders)

Oz: i don't care who says what, Die Hard is a Christmas movie and I'll die on that hill.

Me: and I'd help you defend it. What about you, Rabban?

Rabban: (blinks and goes a bit quiet) i...don't have a favorite. I've never actually...seen any.

Me: oh honey we're gonna fix that!

Karl: nightmare before Christmas is best Christmas Movie. And Halloween movie. Tim Burton just hits the spot for me. Oh and if Die Hard is a Christmas movie, so is Edward Scissorhands.

Oz: Edward scissorhands ain't a damn Christmas movie!

Karl: watch your ass, penguin. Those are fightin' words in my house!

Me: guys chill...it's Christmas time and we should all act like we love each other. Elijah, what's your favorite Christmas movie?

Elijah: eh...Mines a bit divisive....

Astarion: oh cmon Kamski how divisive can it be? Besides we're all friends here.

Elijah: I like Jim Carreys version of the Grinch. Also I really like the old timey puppeteer slash claymation movies. Also the animated frosty the snowman. Classics.

Me: okay I'll admit the grinch is a guilty pleasure. But the old timey movies I totally get. My first memory is actually snuggling up to my dad while watching one of them. I can't remember which one it was...I think it was Santa Claus is Comin' to Town. The one where the creepy mailman committed a federal crime within the first five minutes (giggles)

Elijah: yeah...but we're all in agreement Love, Actually was terrible right?

Astarion: um actually that movie is my Christmas guilty pleasure.

Otto: everyone in that movie was a terrible person though! With the exception of the dad and his stepson...

Astarion: and that's WHY I like it. At least I can watch it and think I'm not THAT bad!

Me: okay but were all in agreement...Christmas Story...terrible right?

(Resounding sounds of agreement)

Karl: as terrible as that movie was, I did convince Moreau to lick a frozen pole once (laughs) Miranda was so pissed!

Me: oh my God Karl! Did she ever find out it was you?

Karl: fuck no! And that doesn't leave this room!
