The festive season has arrived, ushering in the custom of embellishing, donning holiday attire, and arguing over what qualifies as a Christmas film. The ensemble of the comedy Oh. What. Fun., currently available for streaming, is ideal for resolving these discussions. Directed by Michael Showalter, the movie stars Michelle Pfeiffer, Denis Leary, Chloë Grace Moretz, Felicity Jones, and Dominic Sessa as a family embroiled in holiday escapades.
In a game with Entertainment Editor Kristy Puchko titled “Does It Ring Christmas?”, the cast determined if a movie title seemed like a Christmas movie by ringing a jingle bell. In addition to the usual favorite Die Hard, Mashable examined other films that the internet designates as Christmas movies, including Eyes Wide Shut, Gremlins, Trading Places, Lethal Weapon, and Batman Returns, featuring Pfeiffer as a disgruntled anti-heroine.
The cast of Oh. What. Fun. also revealed their preferred holiday classics, citing titles such as The Family Stone, It’s a Wonderful Life, Home Alone, Elf, and Bad Santa. When queried about which Christmas film pairs best with Oh. What. Fun., there was a unanimous selection. Watch the video above to find out the answer!
