Christmas Movies WordPress Developers Love
READING TIME: MIN
When it comes to Christmas Eve activities, WordPress developers don’t differ much from everyone else. We all love to do pretty much the same things the night before Christmas – eat some good food, drink tons of hot chocolate and, of course, watch our favourite Christmas movies.
Christmas movie marathons, however, are definitely something special. There’s nothing like savouring your favourite holiday classic, especially for the 24th of December when watching it feels extra festive.
One thing is for sure, though – there is a Christmas film for absolutely everyone. Whether you like comedies, dramas, or good old family entertainment, the movie industry has made sure to get all genres covered and sprinkle them with holiday tunes, glitter, and marshmallows.
Since our WordPress Agency for Development is crazy about pop culture, it makes perfect sense to share with you our favourite Christmas movies that we watch every single Christmas Eve.
So, in today’s article, we’ve gathered all Christmas movies that the WordPress developers from Vipe Studio have in their “most cherished” lists of holiday classics. We’re aware we probably won’t surprise anyone with our best picks but, after all, what is Christmas without some heart-warming cliches?
Let’s hit the play button and see what are the favourite Christmas films of our WordPress development agency!
1. Home Alone (1 & 2)
“Hey, I’m gonna give you to the count of ten, to get your ugly, yella, no-good keister off my property, before I pump your guts full of lead!… 1… 2… 10! Keep the change, ya filthy animal!”
Please, don’t roll your eyes on us. Christmas Eve simply can’t go without the number 1 holiday classic – “Home Alone”. Now that we think about it, did Christmas even exist before this movie and its lovely sequel were made?!
Joking aside, before the professionals from our WordPress development company decided to become WordPress developers, they dreamed of being like Kevin McCallister – an expert booby trap setter who is the living nightmare for all foolish burglars.
As you’re probably aware, programmers are known for spending quite some time home alone (pun intended), as the nature of their job requires them to be glued to the computer screens and keyboards at all times.
Okay, “at all times” is perhaps quite an exaggeration. However, the experts from our WordPress Agency for Development sleep safe and sound at night, knowing that if they were to stay home alone for the holidays, no Wet Bandits stand a chance against them.
Thieves should be warned to never ever even think about crashing the houses of WordPress developers, as they know every single trick on how to survive on their own with an impending threat on their headquarters. After all, remember they’ve learned from the best.
All hail Kevin and his aftershave, macaroni and cheese, ADA-approved toothbrush, blow torch, and fabric softener! There’s absolutely no question that “Home Alone” is one of the most iconic films ever made, and everyone at our WordPress development agency will be sure to watch it for the thousandth time this Christmas Eve.
2. How the Grinch Stole Christmas
“4:00, wallow in self-pity. 4:30, stare into the abyss. 5:00, solve world hunger, tell no one. 5:30, jazzercize; 6:30, dinner with me. I can’t cancel that again. 7:00, wrestle with my self-loathing. I’m booked. Of course, if I bump the loathing to 9, I could still be done in time to lay in bed, stare at the ceiling and slip slowly into madness.”
The Grinch – a misanthropic green creature who lives in a cave. You’ll be surprised to hear how many WordPress developers identify with this description.
Our favourite quote from this Christmas classic that we shared above is basically what an intense session of coding feels like.
“How the Grinch Stole Christmas” holds a special place in the hearts of everyone at our WordPress development company, as this movie is the perfect mix of weirdness, fun, and heart-warming moments.
3. Surviving Christmas
“Christine Valco: Tom, that guy is still here.
Tom Valco: Yeah, I know.
Christine Valco: Why is he still here?
Tom Valco: He’s giving us $250,000 to be his family for Christmas.
Christine Valco: And you agreed to this without asking me?
Tom Valco: Of course I did, he’s giving us $250,000!”
Next on our list is the film “Surviving Christmas”, in which an eccentric and lonely millionaire basically rents a family for Christmas.
The WordPress developers from Vipe Studio love this movie, as it reminds them to slow down a little bit and appreciate the true spirit of the season that is oftentimes characterized not only by love and special moments but also by a solid dose of absurdity and self-reflection.
You know what they say – if you want to completely turn your life around for the better in the shortest amount of time possible, then the Christmas holidays are your safest bet.
4. Elf
“I planned out our whole day. First, we make snow angels for two hours, and then we’ll go ice skating, and then we’ll eat a whole roll of Tollhouse Cookie Dough as fast as we can, and then to finish, we’ll snuggle.”
“Elf” is another Christmas classic our WordPress Agency for Development loves. After all, Buddy the Elf is the best at spreading Christmas cheer.
In fact, Buddy’s love for Christmas can only match the devotion of Vipe Studio’s experts toward WordPress website development.
If some of our clients asked us “What is the process you go through when building a quality website?”, we could proudly say that “It is a journey we embark on every single time, going through the seven levels of the Candy Cane forest, past the sea of twirly-swirly gum drops and into the Lincoln Tunnel.”.
And voila – a WordPress website is born (with some added Christmas spirit)!
5. Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmas
“Minnie Mouse: Oh, Mickey! I can’t believe you gave up what means the most to you for me.
Mickey Mouse: Oh, Minnie. You’re all the music I’ll ever need.”
“Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmas” is a real trip down memory lane for a lot of the professionals at our WordPress development agency.
This gem was made by Walt Disney Home Video in 1999, and it consists of three short films, starring beloved characters, such as Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Goofy, Max, Huey, Dewey and Louie.
The WordPress developers from Vipe Studio love all three short movies, but our favourite is definitely the one starring Mickey and Minnie. In it, they both trade their most prized possessions to buy the perfect gift for one another. A true tear-jerker!
6. The Holiday
“Say a man and a woman both need something to sleep in and both go to the same men’s pajama department. The man says to the salesman, “I just need bottoms,” and the woman says, “I just need a top.” They look at each other and that’s the ‘meet cute.’”
“The Holiday” is, by all means, the favourite romantic Christmas movie of all ladies at our WordPress development company.
After watching this film every single Christmas Eve for so many years now, we can confidently say that we are more than ready to swap homes with someone for the holidays.
What’s more, we totally love the idea of a home swap website like the one that can be seen in the film. How awesome (and kind of crazy) is that? If anyone wants to build a similar site, the WordPress developers from Vipe Studio would be more than happy to lend a coding hand.
7. Iron Man 3
“What are you waiting for? It’s Christmas. Take ‘em to church.”
Here’s our not-so-typical Christmas movie suggestion that falls in our “favourite holiday classics” category – “Iron Man 3”. Is it really a Christmas movie? Well, no… but at the same time yes (“Die Hard” fans will probably agree with us on that one).
While “Iron Man 3” is not a Christmas film in the traditional sense of the genre, it is still loaded with lots of holiday cheer, as the action takes place during the festive season.
Since everyone at our WordPress Agency for Development is obsessed with Marvel, we are ready to take the case of “Iron Man 3” being a Christmas movie to court and defend our opinion with all means necessary.
Also, have you seen Tony Stark saying “Jarvis, drop my needle” and then vibing to Jingle Bells? Take the word of our WordPress developers – this is what a true Christmas classic looks like.
8. The Muppet Christmas Carol
“Rizzo the Rat: Boy, that’s scary stuff! Should we be worried about the kids in the audience?
Gonzo: Nah, it’s all right. This is culture!”
Hands down THE BEST Christmas movie ever! Honestly, our WordPress development agency is ready to fight anyone who dares disagree with us on the supremacy that is “The Muppet Christmas Carol”.
Also, also, actually, actually, this is THE BEST adaptation of the 1843 novella “A Christmas Carol” by Charles Dickens. Period.
Here’s a tip from our WordPress developers to all programmers out there who might need some Christmas music to keep them jolly and bright while coding – look no further than the score and songs from “The Muppet Christmas Carol”. This is the most perfect festive soundtrack ever created.
