    So, any particular film you will sit down and watch on TV this Christmas. (Doesnt have to be Christmas related)

    Probably not a big deal like years ago with Streaming, Sky cinema and the like more available.

    Still though...
    I always watch:

    Back to the Future
    Home Alone
    At least one of the Harry Potters
    Willy Wonka

    Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit sniffing glue

    Some version of a Christmas carol and maybe it’s a wonderful life.

    Die hard and home alone are not Christmas movies.

    From 2018, I enjoyed Eighth Grade. It showed the a person that felt anxiety in social situations and used social media to give advice. It was relatable and realistic.

    There seems to be a worrying trend away from old classic films to schmaltzy TV movies being shown around Christmas.
