I understand Returns isn't liked much around here and why it would be a bit...weird, but to someone like me who isn't the biggest fan of the holiday itself, the story of Batman Returns is the anti-thesis of Christmas, boasting dreary and bleak cinematography, deformed newborns being abandoned, the caped crusader himself using bombs to blow up goons instead of apprehending them and despair all around. All of this just so happens to take place during this "altruistic" and loving holiday always struck a chord with me as a kid. :yeshrug:

We aren't. I was too tied up talking to my boy about Wayne and j cole and forgot to ping him on that. @kp404 no Christmas specials breh gotta keep it to feature length projects just for lack of confusion and other shyt
:drakecomeon: not having the OG Grinch on a top Christmas movie list is blasphemy. Its a tv movie breh...

:comeonstarks:its the Grinch breh....the GRINCH.

I know I know but one of the homies bought up a good point about that. If we allow the grinch then we gotta allow a lot of other specials and then lists will change or have to change. I'm thinking of a plan though

Even if its 30 minutes, why can't that qualify as a short film? we allow tv movies on the lists
