#TeamNutcracker did everyone have chance to watch our #TeamMovie / #BuddyWatch?

This will be the discussion thread for The Santa Clause until the end of the month. Comment below with discussion points, questions, funny quotes, or anything you can think of about the film!

One of my favourite parts is when he is trying to dye his hair and shave his beard, and it immediately grows back and turns white 🤣

So what are your thoughts? :)

TEArificbooks I watched it with my boys. I loved it when he was watching his kids soccer game and other kids just lined up to tell him what they wanted for Christmas. 5y

ElizaMarie @mdm139 I loved that part too. It was so cute and innocent! I love how sweet this movie is.
5y

ElizaMarie So, I feel like the mother and boyfriend were really hard on the son's thoughts about his father being Santa. I mean I know you shouldn't feed into a “delusion“ however, you should hear your child out. Children/people need to be heard and sometimes its important for them to know that they are being listened to. The way to approach things is not to automatically shut down the notion of his father being Santa (no matter how far fetched it is) 5y

TEArificbooks @ElizaMarie I think that part of it was over dramatized just for the sake of driving the plot. If they weren‘t so against the idea then we wouldn‘t have a movie. Just like if the stupid girl doesn‘t run upstairs from the killer the movie would end pretty quickly. 5y

ElizaMarie @mdm139 true true. You have a great point! They have to have a reason for it all. I guess I just was more annoyed with the step dad more than anything. He just irked me. The mom not so much. She had concern. But more normal type concern you know? 5y

OriginalCyn620 Me too @mdm139! 5y

Bookworm54 @ElizaMarie I agree that they were harsh. I felt like the step dad was trying to prove that he was better than the dad, which isn‘t the way to go about getting a kid to like you! And @mdm139 I agree about the line of kids. So cute! Do you have favourite characters in this film? I like the elf Bernard best. 5y

TEArificbooks @bookworm54 I like Bernard too and Judy the elf - thanks, but I am seeing someone in wrapping 🤣 5y

Bookworm54 @mdm139 haha that was a great line! 5y

Watched our #TeamMovie #BuddyWatch The Santa Clause this morning. I‘m still off work with a bad cold, and then it‘s my Christmas holidays!

It‘s been a while since I have watched this one, but I really enjoyed it :)

This is a #CheesyChristmasMovie :) but it‘s actually pretty good (I‘m thankful for #BuddyWatch ) otherwise I probably wouldn‘t have watched it (since I‘m not into the traditional movies)

Go #TeamNutcracker !!! ❄️ #WinterGames

@Bookworm54 , @Clwojick , @StayCurious

1 point participation ⛄️

Running total: 810

Bookworm54 Woop! 5y

ElizaMarie Okay so Santa is not really the “love interest” but he does have a very insightful child and all that and is a single divorce dad... and so mostly!? 5y

So results are in, and the #TeamNutcracker #BuddyWatch will be The Santa Clause!

Watch this movie at any point during December and get 25 points, plus 5 extra points as it is also a book! You can watch as many times as you want for the same number of points each time.

Think about any discussion points you might have, as we will discuss the film at the end of the month (with 5 points for each comment) 🎅🏻

ElizaMarie Ooo okay! I haven‘t fully seen this movie yet (seen bits and pieces of it) 5y

Sarahreadstoomuch Yay! Im looking forward to watching with my boys! 5y

Bookworm54 I tried to find it last year to watch as it used to be one of my favourites. It‘s been years since I have seen it though. But I clocked it on TV when I was flicking through and recorded it so I am set! Haha. I also found some I had forgotten about during my flicking, like deck the halls. I‘m planning on so many nostalgic Christmas movies once I finish work next Friday 🥳 5y

TEArificbooks I didn‘t know it was a book. Will try to find the book too. 5y

Bookworm54 @mdm139 me neither. But the tagged book is it. Looks like it‘s more of a book based on a film rather than the other way around :) 5y

Hi #TeamNutcracker!

So we need to pick a movie for a #BuddyWatch. There have been some suggestions on slack, so post below what you fancy watching and we will pick the film with the most votes in 24hrs for our movie 🎥 🍿

Suggested so far are:
The Ref
The Santa Clause
The Christmas Shoes
A Christmas Story

Feel free to suggest others, but some of the more popular ones are already taken by other groups and may get vetoed!

Marmie7 I vote for the Ref😁 5y

ElizaMarie I‘m up for anything (not a huge traditional Christmas movie person) I have Hulu, Netflix, Disney + and Amazon Prime so any of those platforms I‘m game :) 5y

Sarahreadstoomuch Christmas Story or Santa Clause 5y

See All 12 Comments

TEArificbooks Since I have kids I am going with Santa Clause since they can watch with me. 5y

ElizaMarie Also, if anyone was thinking more non-traditional... I was thinking Coming to America, Die Hard, Gizmo... I don't know if another group is doing the Christmas Carol (I saw the Muppet one once already this month but will probably watch it again and maybe the Mickey Mouse one too) 5y

OriginalCyn620 The Ref! Love that one! 5y

DieAReader The Christmas Shoes, Mickey‘s Christmas Carol, One Magic Christmas. Those are all my must see Christmas movies every year 😉💖 5y

peaKnit I‘ve not seen the ref so I‘d check that out but I‘m not picky, I‘m into all holiday movies this year😂 5y

TheKidUpstairs My vote is for The Santa Clause or A Christmas Story, but I'm happy with whatever we end up with! 5y

LMJenkins Love, Actually or Home Alone 5y

Bookworm54 You have 2 more hours to vote for/suggest movies for our buddy watch so get them in! You can vote for more than one, as we will go with whichever the most people want to watch! 5y

Bookworm54 Okay so we had a tie between the Santa clause and the ref. I flipped a coin and we got the Santa clause (though I will probably watch a lot of these suggestions anyway!) 5y
