Star Trek: Generations counts as a Christmas movie as well.

I never thought of that! I am going to use this argument with the family this year…

I’m more of a Lord of the Rings guy.

For years I would start reading the Hobbit all the way through Return of the King around Christmas, every year

Makes sense. They each came out a week or two before Christmas. I remember finishing my college finals each year and then going to see them with my friends before going home.

I’m very close to finishing my current TNG rewatch and am looking forward to throwing on Generations to commemorate the season.

It’s kind of hard for me to watch the HP movies these days with all the Rowling stuff, which is unfortunate because Radcliffe and Watson have stood up to Rowling’s transphobia. There’s also a lot of stuff from reading the books as a kid that is, in retrospect, rather horrible.
Maybe I could see myself one day re-watching them through a means that doesn’t directly fund Rowling (or, in the future, her estate, if its activities are malicious) and enjoy the work of the other people who aren’t involved with the stuff Rowling is doing, but for me, that day is not today; I just feel too conflicted about it.
For now, though, if I want to enjoy Radcliffe, I throw on 2022’s Weird: The Al Yankovic Story.

I put this on one yeah and the family was watching. My mother declared it was to scary and guilted everyone into turning it off and playing board games with her instead. So now we don’t get to watch it on Christmas. I was 32 when that happened.
