unlabelledView post →I was enjoying 8 Bit Christmas as a basic but pleasant holiday movie reminiscent of Princess Bride & A Christmas Story, but the end kicked me in the heart. I ended up full sobbing for 5 minutes about never having another Christmas with my mom, something preventable had she gotten proper healthcare.
unlabelledView post →haven’t seen A Christmas Story but the superior version of the trope is is 8-Bit Christmas- it’s a heist movie wherein a group of kids in the 80s is trying to get themselves an NES for christmas but shit keeps going horribly sideways, came out a few years ago and it became a classic in my house
unlabelledView post →It's still Christmas weekend, so I suggest you all take the time to watch a film written by my cousin. It came out in 2021. It's on HBO MAX. It's called 8-Bit Christmas www.hbomax.com/movies/8-bit...

unlabelledView post →8-Bit Christmas is a pretty decent newer Christmas movie. Best part is this iconic baseball card is at the center of the plot. #cardsky
unlabelledView post →Watched 8-Bit Christmas last night. Yeah, this was the Christmas movie for the millennial who actually buys all that Toxic Reddit Nostalgiabait about how kids don't get off their phones to play outside, and also thinks hose water is the nectar of the gods. It's in the same family as Forrest Gump.

unlabelledView post →More notes from my barrage of holiday movie viewing. 8 Bit Christmas was very cute. High rec for a family pick if you grew up liking games especially. Warning some Claude Lemieux slander from Steve Zahn. Watching Carry-On and it is dumb but fun enough. A crazy guy Jason Bateman performance.

unlabelledView post →The explosion of content on streaming can mean that even REALLY good stuff can get buried or easily forgotten with the next new thing.

unlabelledView post →112.) 8-Bit Christmas I completely forgot about this film until recently but I'm glad I remembered it. It's a more modern, and better IMO, 'A Christmas Story', but the coveted item is a Nintendo Entertainment System. Fun film with true humor. I liked all of the actors here. #2025Films

unlabelledView post →If you are looking for a fun, funny Christmas movie try 8 Bit Christmas 🎄, especially if you are an 80s kid. I rewatched it last night. Love it. My traditional movie is Love Actually. I'm disappointed I can't watch it this year b/c I don't have Amazon. I should just buy it I love it so much.
unlabelledView post →You’ve got to see the Christmas movie 8 Bit Christmas - set in the 80s where the kid wants a Nintendo (like the BB gun in a Christmas Story)
unlabelledView post →Today’s holiday viewing: #8bitChristmas (Dowse, 2021) as a kid of the 80s it is the perfect nostalgia film akin to what A Christmas Story would be for kids growing up in the 1940s.
unlabelledView post →8-Bit Christmas has become a new holiday fave. The Nintendo fever was so real. Now I need a movie about Photon/Lazer Tag. THAT had my block in a chokehold and was my earliest memory of collective consumption: We all had to agree which to get so we could play against eachother. We picked Photon.

unlabelledView post →Christmas movie recommendation: 8-Bit Christmas. It's essentially "A Christmas Story" for 80s kids. Similar idea but shows the nostalgia of that time period while also highlighting the less than ideal parts. Also, has a nice heart behind in it with a great cast. If you have HBO Max, check it out.

Still a childhood favorite with S Tier music.
unlabelledView post →Merry Christmas! Hey, movie recommendation: If you want a fun 80’s retelling of “A Christmas Story” with a little Princess Bride grandpa + grandson vibe thrown in, check out “8-Bit Christmas” starring Neil Patrick Harris, streaming on HBO MAX. It was great! PS: the PowerGlove sucked!

unlabelledView post →8-Bit Christmas! It's A Christmas Movie but set in the 80's and the Red Rider is a NES. I don't want to give too much away but it has, in my opinion, a better lesson at the heart of it and also you might cry.

unlabelledView post →8-Bit Christmas (2021) is a phenomenal film that is an underrated holiday classic, essentially an 80s Christmas Story. The storytelling is top-notch and the power glove did suck. 9/10, full @letterboxd.social review below. #drama #christmas #kids boxd.it/88Dmib

unlabelledView post →My ★★½ review of 8-Bit Christmas (2021) on @letterboxd: boxd.it/7ZX5QT
unlabelledView post →"8 Bit Christmas" should replace "A Christmas Story" on the holiday classics film list. The lead character wants a Nintendo. Way more wholesome than gifting some little silent generation maniac a gun.
unlabelledView post →Looking for an alternative Christmas film and grew up in 1980s/early 1990s? 8-Bit Christmas is perfect. All the 'John Hughes' Midwest references, Nintendo, bloody good soundtrack of great English bands and funny poignant ending.
