It could simply take place during the holiday season (i.e. Batman Returns, Gremlins, Die Hard, etc.) -Although the movie doesn't have to take place during the holiday season, a MAJORITY of the film HAS to take place during the holiday season. No movies with just one scene during the holiday season. If you're not sure, ASK! -Any holiday from Thanksgiving through New Years Day may count -A film can only be viewed once, UNLESS you watch it and then watched it again with a commentary -There is no global goal, shoot for a personal goal. Whatever you want your goal to be go for it. For returning participants maybe your goal should be to beat a previous year's goal. -Again, like past years there will be a THREE Wild Card option to include movies or TV shows you might watch during the holiday season that is not holiday oriented. My family used to watch Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory every Christmas. So anything is allowed, up to 3. -Specials such as the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, New Years Rockin' Eve, etc. can count, but you MUST watch the entire special in order to count it. -PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE number your lists! If you do not number your list it will not count towards the challenge -It doesn't matter how you see the film, VHS, DVD, Blu-Ray, HD-DVD, Laserdisc, Theatrical release, it can be counted. Just have fun. -The challenge will begin at midnight on Saturday November 19, 2016 and will end at dawn on Monday January 2, 2017 CHECKLIST Spoiler:
PLEASE KEEP THE DISCUSSION TO THIS THREAD Enjoy the Horror Movie Challenge and I Look Forward to All Participants! |

Since the election is now over, I have started to think about my list. I have grown quite a collection of hallmark/tv holiday movies on dvd, and I think I want to do something different this year. I hope to watch every single hallmark/tv movie I have for my list, I think I am up to 30-40 movies on dvd. I will still have some regular movies that I view(Bad Santa, Gremlins, Christmas Vacation, Etc.), as well as plenty of holiday tv shows. I think we have less than two weeks now before Thanksgiving.

Re: It's Beginning to Look A Lot Like The 12th Annual Holiday Challenge (11/20 - 1/1)
I was at ~159 when I quit counting halfway through. Looking forward to this year's, but have set myself a limit of 100 max, and mostly episodes at that.

Re: It's Beginning to Look A Lot Like The 12th Annual Holiday Challenge (11/20 - 1/1)
I posted big numbers because 75% of it was sitcom episodes (22 minutes each without commercials). This year I hope to watch more movies, which should cut my total way down.

I'm looking forward to tomorrow night/Saturday morning. I really need some Christmas cheer right now. We own a home for the elderly, and a resident who has lived here for about 2 years went to the hospital today with what we thought was a mild stroke. It turns out it was a brain bleed, and even if she pulls through, she won't be living with us anymore.
