What really makes a movie a Christmas classic?
This week on The Popcorn Podcast, Tommy and Ryan face off in a holiday film debate as they compare Gremlins and It’s a Wonderful Life, two radically different films that both claim a spot in Christmas movie history.

We break down themes, tone, holiday spirit, cultural impact, and rewatch value while debating whether heartwarming tradition or chaotic holiday horror better represents the season. Is It’s a Wonderful Life the definitive Christmas film, or does Gremlins earn its place through dark humor and holiday chaos?

Expect strong opinions, festive arguments, and plenty of laughs as we tackle one of the most divisive Christmas movie debates out there.
