A Garfield Christmas - classic. It's free on YouTube.
Rudolph. I mean, c'mon, it's Rudolph! Of all the Rankin Bass it's the only one I really like.
There's a great Disney short by Don bluth called The Small One. Should be on D+.
Claymation Christmas. Maybe you had to be there. Haha.
I really like Klaus, I'll probably watch that one again.
Agreed about Hawkeye.
And of course Muppets!
I think that's about it. Not many others are what I'd call must-watches year after year after year after year.
EDIT: oh, superhero holiday content. Missed that part

Bad Santa. And yes, Billy Bob 100% plays a superhero in that movie.

I really enjoyed Hawkeye and the whole Dad away from his family at Christmas angle.

Black Adam was 3.6 Roentgen.
It falls into a lot of DC's usual traps, but it also has an interesting premise and Pierce Brosnan, so it had that going for it, which is nice.
That being said, I dont really see how DC are planning to build off of this because you genuinely dont give a crap about any of the characters.

Yeah Black Adam flipped around from meh to cringe to trying to have what it didn't earn.
It felt like there were pieces of a cool movie in there somewhere but someone cut most of it out to replace it with a bunch of "this would be cool" and "make sure these funny things happen".
Hot Take: The Eternals was better.

Trying to have what it didn't earn sounds pretty on brand for DC.

Now, now....lets not say things we cant take back...
I will say that Black Adam had moments of entertainment swaddled in a blanket of sheer nonsense and buffoonery.
I dont recall any part of Eternals that I found even mildly interesting.

I watched Morbius....and it wasn't nearly as bad as I was expecting. Maybe bland? Matt Smith's performance was good. Jared Leto's wasn't awful.
I think they really missed an opportunity to make a stylish superhero movie though. They could have done it up with Crow and/or Tim Burton-esque stylings. Instead it was all just kind of bland....maybe the thing about Morbius is that it's not bad, just bland. Based on the reviews, I thought it would be an absolute tire fire.

Honestly, I'd consider engaging in a discussion about Morbius but it was so uninteresting that I hardly even remember it.

The best part of Black Adam was the post-credits scene. That being said, I still enjoyed it enough being a fan of The Rock.

I cant recall ever watching a Christmas Special...obviously other than the Star Wars one...but that was just morbid curiosity.
Nobody expends that kind of energy to try and erase something from the universe without there being some gold there and boy did it deliver.
Not the point!
Kevin Bacon was awesome and James Gunn is an evil genius. That was a fun ride.
If you like GoTG then you'll enjoy the Christmas Special. I was skeptical but it delivered!

Man, if they chuck in the GoBots to the MCU, I'll be giddy. As a poor kid growing up, we got go bots and M.A.S.K toys instead of transformers.
I cherished my F-15 fighter jet robot.
I'm also like 100 percent certain every child in the 80s had the Kawasaki Ninja Copter bike toy from M.A.S.K. like some sort of toy gnome just plopped one in ALL toy boxes.

Finally watched Love and Thunder last night. How did that get so bad?
Hammy over acting. A story line that felt tired and lazy from the start. Even the effects didn't look great.
The only good part was Portman's acting.

On one hand I feel bad that Portman put a lot of effort into her role, not only acting but also the effort of getting jacked for the part only to get....that.
On the other hand though, I'm sure the truck full of money she was given will soften the blow.
I'm sure President Franklin will help wipe away her tears.
