Plenty of Kranks around Christmas time on DCUM.

I’m listening to Christmas music as I write this! Love Christmas With the Kranks, enjoy.

yep! It has some fun/silly elements, and it's very much a family movie.

No! If OP wants to say Christmas. He or she can say Christmas. If anyone has a problem with this they can leave the thread. So tired of everyone being up in arms about every single things. Let the OP kick their CHRISTMAS off early if he or she wants to.

Thanks OP now I'm going to watch a Christmas movie tonight too.

LOL, good one.

I think sometimes the transition to autumn signals for some people a nesting instinct and the slide towards all things celebratory and holidays from Halloween to Thanksgiving to the many December holidays.

Not yet watching Christmas movies but I need to find some Hallmark autumn-themed movies to watch. Also to me, the sound of football is very much associated with fall since my parents were/are huge sports fans. Even now I'm WFH and the house is quiet, so three rooms away I have a rerun of a football game on in the background to provide some noise. In December it will be holiday music, but for now the soundtrack of this season is football.

For me it's a bit early for Christmas movies but zero judgement, OP. I get it.

Ever since the pandemic, I watch Hallmark Christmas/holiday movies all year-round.

You need to poke yourself in the eye and go enjoy the fall

It's good to stay ahead of the game. By the time people are celebrating Christmas, you are already doing spring break. Less hype if you ask me.

I was having a rough couple of weeks and turned on Christmas music last week for a few songs. Do what you need to do. It's ok to bring comfort in whatever way is meaningful to you.

Too early too early I know but I start feeling festive right around now when the days are getting colder and shorter. This is my favorite time of year! Plus Christmas with the Kranksvis leaving Netflix this month and it’s a very underrated Christmas movie. Happy holidays!!!
