A Jolly Hello

“I don’t know what to say except it’s Christmas and we’re all in misery.”

— Christmas Vacation (1989)

I included the above quote because most college students can relate. Gotta finish the fall semester strong though guys!

Should we just search Christmas movies on Netflix and then see what we find?

Macaroni’s Faves:

1. Nightmare Before Christmas (1993)

As long as I can remember, this has been a movie dear to my heart; although I haven’t been into creepy stuff until more recently. This film runs a bit slow but what it lacks in speed it makes up in song and lovable claymation characters. Iconic. Gotta be #1 for moi! 8/10!

2. Home Alone (1990)

Home Alone is a must-see classic! (It wouldn’t be a movie set in today’s age bc we have cell phones and that would end the plot right there). It’s got action, family drama, and characters who will melt your icy heart (or burn your hand when you touch the doorknob). Fun for the family and cold weather get-togethers!

3. Let it Snow (2019) A Netflix original

A teen movie about a snowstorm that brings interconnected storylines together for a fateful day at an oddly named breakfast diner. It’s got comedy, holiday vibes, romance, and an awesome cast. If you have Netflix and feel like watching a new Christmas movie this year- consider this one!

Aloe’s Faves

Hi guys! I’m Aloe Aka Ally. Christmas is always one of my favorite times of the year! I love chilling in my comfy pjs and watching some good Christmas movies. So here are my top 3!

1. How the Grinch Stole Christmas (Jim Carrey Version)

What’s better than watching a good ol’ classic? I love the original version of this movie, but Jim Carrey cracks me up with how well he plays the Grinch. He’s so relatable too, that makes it even better (my favorite quote from the movie: “Ohh..! Ahh..! That’s it i’m not going!”)

2. Silent Night

Silent Night is such a amazing movie, I watch it every year. It takes place during WWII where a German mother and son are taking refuge in a small abandon cottage from the war. During their stay, they are invaded by three American soldiers then three German soldiers. She eventually convinces the soldiers to put aside their differences for one night to enjoy a Christmas dinner.

3. The Polar Express

Some people may not agree that this is a great movie… but I love it! I grew up watching it so it remains in my top 3. Who doesn’t wanna get on a train in the middle of the night to go see Santa??
