Christmas Movies Unwrapped

A quick hello from Hannah and Naomi! Join us for a casual chat about 2024's upcoming Christmas movies. This may be a barely edited, recorded on a phone at the last minute discussion - but nothing can hold back Naomi's excitement and Hannah's horror at movies about snowmen who come to life!

We're popping in for an episode we recorded way back in December 2021 to talk about Journey Back to Christmas! We're discussing time travelling shed logistics, pondering what crime our protagonist could possibly be accused of, and saying the word gazebo more times than we ever thought possible.

Merry Christmas! We are finally discussing the time-travelling shoes movie - also known as A Shoe Addict's Christmas. We talk about ugly shoes, terrible photography and how Lorna looks great too!

We're discussing our first movie of the 2021 Christmas season - The Princess Switch 3: Romancing the Star! Naomi tries to work out where Montenaro sits on the map of Europe with the latest installment's set of clues and Hannah reminisces about renting Entrapment on video cassette.

It's here - we're finally talking about the highly anticipated Happiest Season! Joined by special guest Jen, we discuss all our complicated feelings about this film, get into the who Abbey should have ended up with debate and wish for Aubrey Plaza to teach classes on how to flirt with women.

We're discussing the much anticipated sequel to one of Naomi's favourite Christmas movies, The Princess Switch: Switched Again! We are as predictable as ever - Naomi gets into the weeds of how these monarchies function and Hannah manages to drop in references to both The X-Files and Once Upon A Time. Let us know if you're Team Hannah or Team Naomi on the confusion of Netflix's Christmas Cinematic...

We talk to actor Antonio Cayonne about the upcoming Christmas in Evergreen: Bells are Ringing, the importance of diversity and representation in Hallmark movies, accountability and much, much more! 

For the first of our movies from the 2020 Christmas season, we're talking about Netflix's Jingle Jangle: A Christmas Journey! Hannah thinks this is a sweet shop of a movie and Naomi would like a behind the scenes "making of" documentary.

Who doesn't love Dolly Parton? We're finally discussing one of our most anticipated of 2019's movies, Christmas at Dollywood! Hannah introduces a strike system and apologises for being too bossy. Naomi gushes about how wonderful Dolly Parton is and learns about funnel cake.

In this episode (recorded several months ago!), we're talking about Hallmark's Crown for Christmas. Hannah has a stressful lift music experience and Naomi compares this movie with other royal Christmas romances. Why does nobody seem to know what a governess actually does?

Hanukkah exists! Who knew? We're looking at Hallmark's first attempt at a Christmas/Hanukkah crossover movie. Hannah contemplates the power that comes in a relationship if you're magically responsible for a grandparent's health and Naomi is unimpressed with the "reveal".

We're discussing one of Hallmark's takes on the works of Jane Austen - Pride, Prejudice and Mistletoe! Hannah has plenty to say about terrible restaurant names and free child labour, while Naomi pokes holes in this adaptation attempt. Will we ever get to see Emma and Eggnog?
