Christmas movies


Christmas movies are incredible films, for the most part. Up until about the early 2000’s Christmas movies were actually about Christmas. Christmas Vacation will forever hold a spot in my heart as my favourite Christmas movie, not only because the cast and story are great but also because everything that has come out lately isn’t good. 
           
            Recently, most of the Christmas movies that have been released are just romantic comedies set at Christmas time. There is absolutely nothing wrong with Rom-Com Christmas movies but is targeted towards a very specific group leaving every one else out in the cold. Back in the day Christmas movies were about Santa or elves or reindeer usually having some message about family. Nowadays they are about couples getting into antics around the holidays.  

            Although there is always a silver lining, most actors who do Christmas movies only do traditional story movies not the Rom-Coms of late.
