Can I put forth two? Muppet’s Christmas Carol for all of Becky’s reasons. Also It’s a Wonderful Life - it makes the best case for kindness and love as the true measure of a man/life without downplaying the struggle and loss of a life sacrificed for others.
😱 as conservative “pastor’s kid” children we weren’t allowed to watch this so I’ve only seen part of it in the children’s area of a fitness center when I was like 4!
Bahahaha My mom really went to a variety of extremes on what I could and couldn’t watch. This was far more appropriate than Christmas Vacation which we watched every single year. Haha
Home alone. It’s really enjoyable for a lot of reasons. Obviously the movie doesn’t “make sense” but they did an incredible job making Kevin so relatable. So many memes about how he’s a psychopathic child. IDk maybe the insane robbers that literally will
Sacrifice their lives over and over again to rob a house are the diabolical ones 🤷🏻♂️
lol Justice for Kevin!! Home Alone wasn't one we watched growing up but Ben introduced it to me and it's on my rotation now. Always cry in that church scene! I love the second one, too!

Girl, we are twins.
While You Were Sleeping
The best 90s rom-com Christmas movie that is always forgotten in the Christmas movie conversation. Sandra Bullock in her prime!!
Watch it every year!!! Truly the best.
I adore this movie! Definitely underrated.
Muppet Christmas Carol:
- stupendous acting
- heartfelt & a timeless message about how loving others is Christmas and vice versa
- iconic music that’s catchy
- they made a Dickens novel FUNNY without ruining the story.
AGREE. YES, a thousand times yes!!!
Muppet Christmas Carol, for all the reasons Becky listed but i would argue that its the best rendition of the novel next to the FX series.
The Shop Around the Corner!
-Jimmy Stewart and Margaret Sullavan have great chemistry
-I have a soft spot for the Budapest setting since my husband's family is from Hungary
-It inspired the script for You've Got Mail.
One of my faves!!
The Santa Clause:
- Corporate Christmas Parties that happen on Christmas Eve
- Tim Allen in his prime
- Judge Reinhold’s sweaters
- An adorable, but not overly precocious child
- The North Pole, so magical.
- 90s co-parenting
- A believe in the magic of Christmas message

SARAH I REMEMBER WATCHING IT AT THE GYM. hahahah I really think that's the only time I saw it, too. We must fix this!
The fact that gym was called “Foxy’s” really fits the whole early 90s vibe of this memory 🤣
Literally wrote about "Foxy's" being the name of it in my post that is scheduled for tomorrow morning and wasn't sure if I dreamed that up. DEAD.
