X-Mas movies that aren't really X-Mas movies...

Sat Nov 14, 2009, 2:16 PM
Anyone else out there noticed that there are a handful of movies... that any other time of year aren't Christamas movies... but when you watch them in December, for some reason they transform into Christmas movies...

I'm talking about...

Home Alone
Home Alone 2
Gremlins
Batman Returns
Quite a few of the Harry Potter movies

Strictly speaking, none of those movies are Christmas movies... but they all take place around Christmas time (or at the very least, in Harry Potter's case, have alot of winter/christmas scenes) yet when you watch them during the holiday season... the christmasy setting takes over and transforms them into holiday movies somehow...

It's the damndest thing...

I don't know if I have a point in this journal entry, other than pointing out this odd phenomenon I noticed...

Seriously, go watch them. If you watched Batman Returns in May, you wouldn't give the Christmasy elements of it a second thought, watch it right now, and suddenly it turns into a holly jolly superhero movie. It's weird.

Dies iræ, dies illa,
dies tribulationis et angustiæ,
dies calamitatis et miseriæ,
dies tenebrarum et caliginis,
dies nebulæ et turbinis,
dies tubæ et clangoris
super civcivitates munitas
et super angulos excelsos.
