What's this Spirited you all speak of?

Oh and I finished the Powerpuff Girls Christmas episode.  I can say that's an episode I can watch every year.

Better than the Muppets Christmas Carol I just finished?

Better than the Muppets Christmas Carol I just finished?

muppets is one of the best retelling of a Xmas carol but spirited isn't exactly a retelling.  yes it pays homage to it but also does its own thing. I'd personally put spirited higher but a lot of that is for not simply rehashing the same story over again. 

not Soo good you should sub to apple+ for it but if you have apple+ it's a must watch holiday film of the season.

Finished Holiday Knights.  You know, I miss the 90s cartoons.  There was this childish comedy to it that's missing from things today.  Like, Harley and Ivy controlled Bruce to take them Christmas shopping.  He managed to get away and chase them as Batman.  As they were driving away unaware, Ivy asked Harley what they should do next and Harley was looking out the back window of the car and was like "Anything as long as it's away from that guy."  Ivy realizing she was talking about Batman, turns around, and they both hug each other and yell "AHHHHHH!"  The joke is that Harley knew it was Batman but didn't realize it was Batman.

I watched Scrooge 1970 again. Then I watched Miracle on 34th street 1947 in black and white.

Which versions/remakes of these films do all yall consider the definitive edition?


I also watched White Christmas.

[kitler53]

well I've watched all my regular shows this year plus a few new one. 

spirited was great. 

just finished the Jimmy Fallon "five sleeps till Christmas" and it was pretty good. 

Robin Robin was probably more "winter" than Xmas but I really liked it. 

I forget it's name but the ROM com on Netflix starring Lindsay Lohan was good too.

agreed. muppets was the best.  also like the mickey version.  I don't love any of the "serious" versions. 

[darkknightkryta]

Finished Batman Returns.  Still as amazing as the day it was released.  I'll say though, I never really appreciated Selena going crazy when I was younger.

It's basically this list, plus another movie.
