Awards Radar Community / Joey’s Home Movies For the Week of December 23rd – What Are You Watching for Christmas?

Welcome back to my Home Movies! Today, it’s Christmas Eve, so we’re doing something different. One, there aren’t any new releases dropping, so that’s a bit of an issue. Two, it’s the end of the year, so normally the column looks back on the year’s releases. We’ll do that soon, so my solution is to combine this with the Awards Radar Community Question. So, what we want to know today is as follows…what are you watching for Christmas?

Now, I’m not excluding Hanukkah, of course (after all, it’s the holiday I technically celebrate), there are just less options. Eight Crazy Nights is out there, while as a hybrid holiday movie, The Night Before is very solid. So, there’s not a lot of other big films of this ilk available, but these do exist, for what that’s worth. Just take note of that.

For me, I’ve been fairly unconventional with my Christmas related viewings. A recent movie night included Looking for Mr. Goodbar, which if you know, you know. On a more wholesome end of the spectrum, I took in While You Were Sleeping, while the most overt holiday film was National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation. These are definitely options if you’re a bit bored with the standard film options.

It’s time to hear from all of you. This holiday season, what Christmas flicks are you watching? Are you doing Die Hard? What about It’s a Wonderful Life? There’s always Love Actually as a modern classic, not to mention Elf. Plus, there’s whatever options you’re partial to. All you have to do is let us know, and more importantly, enjoy the viewings!
