+60 You watched "It's a Wonderful Life" and thought, "This is a Christmas movie?". amirite?

It wasn't released as a Christmas movie, or even at Christmastime. I'm pretty sure it was advertised as a dramedy.

Maybe not - you're probably right - but it has been associated with the Christmas season so much that, in its own right, it has become a "Christmas Movie."

I wasn't disputing that - my family watches it every year at Christmas. I was just saying it was never intended to become a Christmas classic.

Oh, okay. It is very peculiar, though. I wonder where that trend started.
