Opening Banter: It's Christmas Eve and instead of no episode we decided to put together a clip show. We hope you enjoy. December 26, 2017: The /Film crew talks about their favorite Christmas movies of all time: Peter’s picks: Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, Treevenge, Christmas Vacation, Gremlins, A Christmas Story Chris’ Picks: Eyes Wide Shut, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, Batman Returns, Muppet Xmas Carol HT’s Picks: Elf, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, Harry Potter, Love Actually, Dr. Seuss’ How the Grinch Stole Christmas Ben’s picks: Mickey’s Christmas Carol, Christmas Vacation, A Charlie Brown Christmas, How The Grinch Stole Christmas Jacob’s Picks: Rare Exports, It’s a Wonderful Life, Muppet Christmas Carol, Jingle All the Way, Krampus New Segment:What is the Christmas movie you hate? Peter: Santa Claus: The Movie Brad: Zemeckis’ A Christmas Carol Chris: SCROOGE, the musical version of a Christmas carol with Albert Finney HT: Polar Express Ben: Four Christmases Jacob: Home Alone Link: The Morning Watch: ‘Family Guy’ Says Goodbye to Carrie Fisher, The Greatness of ‘Home Alone’ & More December 6, 2018: Chris reads the news story New Poll Shows Most People Don’t Consider ‘Die Hard’ to be a Christmas Movie, So Can We Bury This Argument Already? and Jacob rants about what is and is not a Christmas movie. December 13, 2018: A reader writes in responding to Jacob's Christmas movie rant and Jacob responds: Steve B writes in in response to our Christmas movie argument: “Most films are not just one genre. '21 Jump Street' is a comedy, but also an action movie. Shaun Of The Dead is a comedy but also a horror movie. In that vein, I say Die Hard is an Action film, a Heist film, and also a Christmas movie. The whole reason John McClane is in Los Angeles in the first place is to see his family for Christmas. Argyle is playing 'Christmas' music in the limo. They debate cutting power to a portion of the city because it is Christmas. The thieves did not pick that day at random. Christmas is a plot point to the film. It COULD have been written for John to have come to L.A. to see his family for Holly's birthday, or for his kid's school recital, but then it loses something for the plot. Could 'Planes, Trains and Automobiles' work as a Christmas movie instead of Thanksgiving? Yes, but it would lose something that Thanksgiving gives to that movie. If the genre (including a holiday) has a plot point to the film, and taking it away lessens the film, then I THINK it’s reasonable to count it as part of the film's description. For these reasons, I think that Die Hard is a Christmas movie. If others feel it isn't, I'm cool with that, as long as they are OK with me thinking that it is.” New Segment: Jacob decides what is and isn't a Christmas movie: /Film Daily listener Cade wrote in asking if Batman Returns is a Christmas movie The Sound of Music Lethal Weapon Casablanca The Night Before Home Alone 2: Lost In New York Eyes Wide Shut Kiss Kiss Bang Bang Serendipity You've Got Mail Trading Places Catch Me If You Can Go Rocky IV Life of Brian Love Actually All the other stuff you need to know: You can find more about all the stories we mentioned on today’s show at slashfilm.com, and linked inside the show notes. /Film Daily is published every weekday, bringing you the most exciting news from the world of movies and television as well as deeper dives into the great features from slashfilm.com.
