I have a confession to make. I've barely watched any of the most classic Christmas films. I know. Shocking right?! I'm not even sure how that happened, maybe it is because over the years I've worked all sorts of shifts in previous jobs so didn't catch certain films when they were on tv but this year I'm determined to branch out and watch as many festive films I can throughout December. Especially now that Netflix has added a good few of these classics to their collection as well as brand new Netflix only films. I'm going to make it my mission, or a fun challenge at least, to get through as many as I can. I've managed to find some great suggestions from lists on Pinterest so I've used those as a guide (loving my guides at the minute aren't I?!) and also suggestions from friends and family too. As I write this, I have currently watched Elf and The Holiday Calendar so far this month. The latter is so good by the way! We all know how much people enjoy Elf so I'm not going to delve into that one but The Holiday Calendar was a great watch. It was quite cheesy and predictable but it's one of those feel good, easy to watch rom-coms that I enjoy and I feel like it will be a one I'll rewatch throughout December.
So which ones have I watched? Well the Christmas films I have seen before this year are:
❄Home Alone 1, 2 & 3
❄The Last Holiday
❄Elf
❄Love Actually
❄Arthur Christmas
❄Mickey's Once Upon A Christmas
❄The Nightmare Before Christmas
❄Four Christmases
❄A Christmas Carol
❄The Holiday
❄Jingle All The Way
❄I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus
❄It's A Wonderful Life
While there are some of them in that list I am hoping to watch again this month, I am going to try and aim to watch ones I've not seen before first in an attempt to broaden my Christmas film horizon. Here's what is on my bucket list for this year, hopefully I can get through a fair few:
❄The Holiday Calendar (Netflix)
❄Deck The Halls
❄Nativity!
❄I'll Be Home For Christmas (1998 & 2016 version)
❄Jack Frost
❄The Princess Switch (Netflix)
❄The Snowman
❄Die Hard
❄Miracle On 34th Street
❄National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation
❄The Santa Clause
❄The Polar Express
❄How The Grinch Stole Christmas
❄Christmas With The Kranks
❄The Muppet Christmas Carol
❄A Christmas Carol
❄Christmas Wedding Planner
❄Christmas Inheritance (Netflix)
