John Hughes is dead

This movie is pretty much the opposite of comfy imho
>>
This movie was always shit you only like it because of when you were born/what you were exposed to
>>
Because most christmas movies these days are about >muh love

>>62941288
It has some pretty comfy as fuck aesthetics though.

I wish they'd stop that, comfy and christmas spirit should come first. Everything else can come later.

If you like cozy Christmas movies I'd recommend Tim Allen's The Santa Clause. The sequels are pretty shit but will get you into the holiday spirit.

It's a damn shame comfy Christmas movies stopped being a thing, makes sense in a world that's gotten so cynical and bitter.
>>
they were hijacked by paranoid fundy christfags

plus the SJWs would probably consider them and their message offensive and non-inclusive

of course he wrote some duds, but his average of good to bad is amazing. why would you even mention that? you think a couple duds invalidates his work overall.
>>
>>62943618
True that.

>>62941260
CGI, green sceens and capeshit

Everything's gotta be edgy nowadays, no fun allowed anymore.

A few years ago I thought post-irony would save us from this shit but it seems to have died out.

Does Small Soldiers count?

What about Jingle All The Way? It was pretty funny when he looked like Santa, and then fell over.
>>
>>62941260
why are you dressed up to look like a chicken?
well why have you taken your shoes off?
i am now in the treehouse and i am in the process of calling the police

Fred Claus had a decent amount of christmas comfiness, Elf as well
>>
>>62944692
Simon pegg.
>>
>>62944858
True
Elf I used to love while younger but I'm afraid to watch it because I haven't seen it in 5 years and will Ferrell man child routine can be grating if it isn't used right

9/11 happened

>/tv/ is now literally recommending Will Ferrell movies
Fuck this place has gone to shit
>>
>>62941272
This.

The movie itself isn't that much more comfy it's just that you saw it as a child and connect to it differently.

>what a tethered emotional states
Closing yourself off from feeling pleasant emotions in the name of "maturity" is ass backwards as fuck and ironically is an indication that you lack maturity.
>>
>>62945271
The thread was shit so deserved an equally shit post. You're welcome.
>>
>>62941260
People stopped believing, anon
>>
>>62945456
I didn't say that I don't watch it in order to feel better. I just explained why OP feels differently about it in comparison to more recent films.
>>
>>62944773
Small Soldiers kind of does count but there's no Christmas feeling to it. I honestly forgot if it takes place during Christmas or not
>>
>>62945193
Elf is one of the rare few recent movies to capture the Christmas comfiness.
>>
>>62945385
>implying it isn't a good movie
>>
>>62945657
Then why does it knock out both older and more recent movies on Top Christmas Movies lists?
>>
comfy christmas at my house:
the grinch, cartoon
Rudolph
frosty the snowman
Charlie brown
santa clause
santa clause 2
the grinch with Carrey

playing all day Christmas eve through Christmas in the background as we spent all day together in the living room
