Movie Fight Club: Question 106
Since it’s Christmas, this week’s question is open to all subscribers, brought to you by Jess and family. And I didn’t hand her the win last week just because she sent me a box with her famous, homemade truffles. Although note to future MFC fighters: That that would be a good tactic. This week Jess asks:
What’s your least favorite Christmas movie that you feel obligated to watch every year anyway?” Note: Jess says Die Hard doesn’t count…but she’s wrong.
Fight it out.

I'm so completely over How the Grinch Stole Christmas (the original, not the Jim Carey disaster) and would never watch it again...but...it makes an adequate little convenience facilitating me to make coffee in peace on Christmas morning while simultaneously allowing my wife an extra 40 minutes of sleep.
So it's likely to make an appearance again.
A Nightmare Before Christmas. So I only watched it once. But it's kind of a cult classic for my DIL and a friend I met through my daughter’s addiction. She has a full life-size Jack in her dining room that her sister made. (Her sister is recently deceased from an addiction related issue)
I stayed at her house one night with my daughter, when my daughter was in crisis. I slept in the living room with Jack watching me. My friend was aghast that I had never seen it. So I promised to watch it and did a few weeks ago. First and last. I mean, I get it. It's Tim Burton. But then, that also means it's creepy. It is stop motion and very well done. But mixing Christmas with Halloween with all the creepy images and evil characters? It's just wrong. So while I will continue to be pestered to watch it again. Once is enough.
