Favourite Christmas themed horror movies? - Cairn (Paisley, Scotland)

One Christmas in ours 20s, my wife and I watched in horror as our brother-in-law played CUM in Scrabble purely to nab a triple word score. My in-laws refused to react as we both fell on the floor laughing as the brother in law defended the point chasing over propriety. Any great holiday family board game stories from the game? Jason in Chicago

Matthew Sheppard

Every Christmas I have a tradition of watching The Man Who Would Be King. Reminds me of my dad who passed away. Do you have any non-Festive favourites to watch over the holiday period?

My favorite repressed holiday movie memory from my childhood was when my Dad took the three boys (my two brothers and I) to go see Home Alone 2. It was sold out because it was the day after Thanksgiving and my Dad can’t plan worth a shit. We came home and my Dad, a world class MVP in laziness, decided to take a nap with my youngest brother. My middle brother and I found some matches, decided to burn shit and wound up burning a large part of the living room carpet, almost lighting the house on fire. Many beatings occurred that day. What’s your favorite repressed holiday movie memory? Love the show! Kevin, Farmington MI

TheRecognitionScene

I can't believe you have to choose just one of these questions, I want to second basically all of them

Erik N.

What's one really exceptional movie from 2019 that you feel didn't get the recognition or buzz it deserved? Likewise, is there a 2019 movie that a lot of people loved but didn't click with you or live up to the hype? -Erik from New Hampshire

TJ Guiney

While hungover a couple years ago during the holidays I wound up watching the first Fantastic Beasts movie and found it to be a really solid hangover movie while also being something that could be on with my nieces and nephew around. Do you have any "holiday hangover" movies that come to mind? TJ from Minneapolis

John C.Russo

Can you guys settle the debate between myself and my friends once and for all: Is Die Hard the greatest Christmas movie of all time? - John Russo

Chippsy McStagger

One year my family were going through a relatively rough patch money wise. It was Christmas day and turtle mania had swept the world and made it all the way to my town down under (Melbourne, Australia) I exitedely opened my present hoping for a Raphael only to find some cheap knock off brand turtles with yellow and pink bananas (I assume their names were Picasso and Van Gogh) I couldn't complain as my mom and dad looked so pleased they could afford any kind of turtle for me so I faked happiness and told them these were the exact ones I wanted. Obviously I never took these monstrosities to school and told my friends I got the turtle blimp and it was too big to fit in my back pack. So the question is: is there ever a time you were given a gift where you had to grit your teeth and pretend that it was cowabunga when it was totally less than tubular. P.S. please come to Australia. America stole the Hemsworth brothers it's about time some hunks make the trip the other way. Chris from Melbourne, Australia

Scott Plackemeier

What's your favorite Christmas scene from a non-holiday movie? Mine is the 10 minute party scene from Goodfellas. Scott in St. Louis, MO

Paul

What do you want for Christmas this year? Paul in San Francisco

AbbieSchmidt21

I have difficulties finding good, whimsical, nostalgic, funny holiday/Christmas movies I haven't watched to death yet. Anything you could recommend? Thanks! Mandy from Germany

Jonathan Hamilton

What's the etiquette for giving a movie with one or more sequels as a gift? Is it ever okay to just give someone Raiders of the Lost Ark, for instance?

Zane Magers

What's the all time feel good movie? A movie that can be watched anytime and just leaves you with a smile

Mike Van Blarcom

What's your favorite version of the Christmas Carol?

Blake Ferronetti

What is the oddest Christmas gift that either of you have received? Blake from Massachusetts

Catherine McKee

Do you have a favourite Christmas movie that you *have* to watch every year? Excluding Home Alone because we all see it at some point over the festive period as you can't get away from it. For me, and I don't know when it started (I was a kid though), I have to watch National Lampoons Christmas vacation every year.

Catherine McKee

Ever stayed in on New Years?? If so, what are your film choices for a perfect New Year film fest? One NYE, I watched Kes - bad choice, sad sad way to end a year - do not recommend...on a NYE. Catherine from London.

Philip Ehlke

What under-appreciated movie in 2019 will go on to attain cult status in the vein of The Shining or The Thing? Philip in LA

Ryan McDougall

I've been listening to the show for about 6 years. You boys have remained civil regarding movies you disagree on. Have there been any that have led to really heated arguments? I'd love to hear a story beyond "Different opinions on We Hate Movies"

Ethel Yets

My question is kind of a two parter - Best/Worst movie going experiences on Christmas Day? My best was True Grit with my brother. My worst was Manchester by the Sea

ShamusMcc

Late contribution: would love to hear you guys rank Sandler movies.
