No Die Hard?

They wanted the other movies to have a chance.

It's like UIL putting MoJo on suspension so that some shit team from Amarillo can get ass-blasted in the quarterfinals instead for a change, or the Foglios taking themselves out of contention for the Graphic Novel Hugo so that some other comic could win.

8/9 matchup is a nightmare.  Like those two movies literally freak me out.

Four Christmases 100% belongs.

Definitely skewed towards newer movies.  Its a Wonderful Life may be the GOAT, but feels like it doesn't even belong in that bracket all by itself.  Kind of like a best baseball player bracket with all modern players and Babe Ruth, but no Williams, Mays, DiMaggio, etc.

If Die Hard isn’t on the bracket, I’ll go with A Christmas Story. It’s an almost perfect movie. Every scene is iconic. It’s the US equivalent of A Christmas Carol. The final scene with the Old Man and Mrs. Parker drinking wine and watching the snow is a perfect scene.

The Santa Claus as a 6 seed over Christmas Story as an 11 seed is fucking wild.

A 90s kid put this together. Hence Jingle All The Way being on the list at all and a better seed than A Christmas Story or Scrooged.  Live action Grinch over cartoon Grinch?

Yeah, too bad Die Hard 2 sucks

It's the weakest of the three I recognize for sure but it's still good fun.  The idea of a snowmobile chase or even a snowmobile itself outside of Dulles airport like they are in the northern reaches of Wisconsin is hilarious though.

I actually forgot there was a fourth one. Good gravy that was bad.
