Christmas movies tournament ROUND 2: Home Alone region
 
We are on to round 2! This was probably the toughest bracket with two lower seeds moving on. This region features a 3 vs 7 matchup with movies that people seem to feel strongly about one way or the other for different reasons. Is Die Hard a Christmas movie? Is A Christmas Story overrated? Lets find out!

I don't have a bracket or anything but it will be like this:

Home Alone region Grinch region
Polar Express region Gremlins region

Here is the final movie list in order:

Spoiler!

You people better get this right and move on A Christmas Story.

I know there was some chatter about Home Alone not being a Christmas movie and after rewatching it recently I really don’t get how that is possibly a valid suggestion. Beyond taking place at Christmas time, there are countless scenes directly related to Christmas traditions and concepts.

What ****ing idiot said that?

The movie ends on Christmas Day. The family was taking a Christmas trip, kid was decorating a ****in Christmas tree at one point, Christmas light decorations on all the houses, they play Rockin Around the Christmas Tree.. I mean. It is a quintessential Christmas movie.

The second one probably even more so.

I had never heard it before this tournament but google turned up claims that Christmas is just an excuse to get Kevin home alone and it doesn’t matter to the plot. I’m sure there’s more but it’s dumb and probably ultimately only an idea in existence because people are desperate for clicks.

One of the most overrated Christmas movies ever. If not THE most overrated.
