So, Christmas film ? Yes or no?

 

[Tipp blue]

If people watch it at Christmas then it's a Christmas film.

 

[Nymzee]

Is there a Christmas tree in the film?

If so, it’s a Christmas film.

 

[ADM320]

Ho Ho Ho. Now I have a machine gun.
Clearly Christmassy..!

 

[Pejic300]

Is there too much gun-play? Not in my grotto you horrors.

 

[Ray Purchase]

Even the great Rickman is not sure.

 

[Willie Thorne]

It's set at Christmas, with a huge Christmas tree in it, and the staff are having their Christmas party. Surely not?

 

[DualityNSNO]

Is it? Probably not, it's more of a movie set on Christmas than a Christmas movie in my opinion.

Should we care? No, let people enjoy it and have fun with it, who cares honestly?

 

[Blue 1]

Is it even Christmas until you've watched Hans Gruber fall from the top of the Nakatomi Plaza building?

 

[MisterJ]

Batman Returns is set during the Xmas period, is that a Christmas movie?

 

[NeilMorepies]

It is a Christmas film, but not as much as Gremlins or Batman Returns.
