COMMENTS ABOUT SOME OF THE VIDEOS IN THIS TORRENT:

There are 37 videos in this torrent.

> Four Christmases (2008) IMDB=5.7 Comedy Drama EngSubs Romance ReeseWitherspoon RobertDuvall VinceVaughn

I'm looking forward to "Four Christmases": excellent actors.

> Get Santa (2014) IMDB=6.3 Comedy Family EngSubs JimBroadbent RafeSpall WarwickDavis

Based on a quick review, this is my kind of Christmas movie. Schmaltzy!

Somehow, Santa is in prison. Here he's trying to establish his bonafides:

Convinced, the now-adult who got the Rubik's Cube finds this:

After a little time in prison, Santa looks like this:

Image error

I'm sold.

> Ghosts of Christmas Always (2022) IMDB=7.6 TimeTravel Comedy Drama EngSubs TVMovie BethLeavel IanHarding KimMatula

This is 1 of 8 TimeTravel movies in the collection.

IMDB: It follows Katherine, a Ghost of Christmas Present, as she helps one soul to rediscover his Christmas spirit, but this year has something unusual in store

> Gremlins (1984) IMDB=7.3 Comedy Fantasy EngSubs Horror HoytAxton PhoebeCates ZachGalligan

Don't watch this movie after midnight.

> Hannah Waddingham; Home for Christmas (2023) IMDB=8.2 Family EngSubs Music HannahWaddingham JunoTemple LukeEvans

Ms. Waddingham plays Ted Lasso's team owner Rebecca. She kills it in this musical performance. Also performing: Phil Dunster, Luke Evans, Leslie Odom Jr and Sam Ryder -- none of whom have I heard of, but you probably have.

> Hogfather (2007) IMDB=7.4 Fantasy EngSubs TVMovie DavidJason MarcWarren MichelleDockery

This is a two-part show totaling 3 hours of seriously-entertaining entertainment.

The movie is based on the Terry Pratchett book by the same name.

IMDB: It's Hogswatch (equivalent to Christmas) on the Discworld and the Hogfather has gone missing, requiring Death to take his place while his granddaughter Susan endeavors to find out what has happened.

I watched Hogfather last Christmas and really liked it.

Chief Bad Guy Marc Warren is so good at being bad. If you have seen "Life on Mars (2006) UK", you know. If you haven't watched "Life on Mars", you're missing out.

Image error

This actress (Michelle Dockery) was in a fairly popular British drama a few years back.

Image error

Hogfather himself (itself?) has a different take on the traditional look.

Image error

I put a couple of internet shortcuts to web pages that describe Hogswatch, in the videos' folder.

> Home Alone (1990) IMDB=7.7 Comedy Family EngSubs DanielStern JoePesci MacaulayCulkin

I won't watch this movie because of this moment.

Image error

That moment is at 1:21:10. I think I'll watch the movie for the first time in a decade, and just skip that part. Ugh.

> Home for the Holidays (1995) IMDB=6.6 Comedy Drama EngSubs Romance AnneBancroft HollyHunter RobertDowneyJr

Great cast. This one is very real, like, it's like real life. Very good.

> How the Grinch Stole Christmas (2000) IMDB=6.3 Comedy Family Fantasy EngSubs JeffreyTambor JimCarrey TaylorMomsen

Reminds me of Carrey saying in that Batman movie "Was that too much over the top? I can never tell."

> How the Grinch Stole Christmas! (1966) IMDB=8.3 Animation Comedy Family EngSubs BorisKarloff JuneForay ThurlRavenscroft

The best version, of course.

I put the episode of Glee "A Very Glee Christmas (2010) IMDB=8.4 S02E10". In the same folder. The hilarious Grinch scene starts around 21:40.

Image error

> How to Train Your Dragon; Homecoming (2019) IMDB=7.3 Adventure Animation Fantasy EngSubs AmericaFerrera GerardButler JayBaruchel

This takes place maybe a decade after the last movie. Hiccup and Astrid have two children. Plot twist, the son has Astrid's coloring and the daughter has her father's.

Image error
Image error

What big eyes, right? A few years after making "Homecoming" she starred in "Alita: Battle Angel".

The other How to Train Your Dragon video is in Part 1:

> Dragons; Gift of the Night IMDB=7.4 Adventure Animation Comedy EngSubs CraigFerguson GerardButler JayBaruchel

Good double-feature, about 43 minutes altogether.

> Ice Age; A Mammoth Christmas (2IMDB=6.4 Animation Family EngSubs TVMovie BillyGardell JohnLeguizamo RayRomano

This video's IMDB rating is a full point lower than the HTTYD videos. That's a lot. I think Mammoth's rating should be higher, but that's just, like, my opinion, man. Maybe it's lower because people don't like Ray Romano (who I like a lot, contrarian as usual).

I find Mammoth really funny. It's more Christmasy than the HTTYD videos. Heck, it's about the invention of Christmas traditions. Like Klaus. PLUS, it has

Image error

> It Happened on Fifth Avenue (1947) IMDB=7.6 Comedy EngSubs Music Romance AnnHarding CharlesRuggles DonDeFore

This was one of my favorite Christmas movie discoveries, about three Christmases ago.

Aloysius T. McKeever is an expert squatter, spending the winter occupying a NYC mansion and wearing their expensive clothes while the owners are someplace warm. He's a generous man and invites a stranger who needs a place to come join him. You'll probably recognize him as Ozzie and Harriet's nextdoor neighbor:

Image error

The female lead is the daughter of the rich owners but she poses as another squatter.

Image error

The community grows. Romance happens. Tension builds when the owners find out about the squatters. As all good Christmas movies do, it ends with everyone happy with each other, futures set up nicely, and family members growing closer.

This movie is my #2 recommendation for Part 2, after after #1 "Love Actually (2003) Mini-Sequel - Red Nose Day Actually IMDB=7.1", discussed below.

> It Happened One Christmas (1977) IMDB=6.0 Angel RemakeOfItsAWonderfulLife Comedy EngSubs TVMovie MarloThomas OrsonWelles WayneRogers

This is a VERY FAITHFUL recreation of "It's a Wonderful Life". This illustrates HOW faithful:

Image error

Indeed, that is Malcolm's Grandma, the late great Cloris Leachman as the angel. She lives on in cinema and in my heart.

Marlo Thomas is very good in the Jimmy Stewart role.

Image error
Image error

They got Count Rugen to play her brother Harry.

Image error

I don't think Orson Welles is as good as Lionel Barrymore's Potter, but he's plenty good.

If you love IAWL, you'll love this. #4.

> It's a Wonderful Life (1946) IMDB=8.6 Angel Drama Family Fantasy EngSubs DonnaReed JamesStewart LionelBarrymore

The torrent includes both black and white and color versions.

I never noticed this until the pandemic:

Image error

The year is 1919, the cause of death influenza: Mr. Gower's son died during the Great Influenza Pandemic.

Director Frank Capra survived the pandemic:

> On September 15, 1918, he graduated from Throop and one month later was inducted into the army. He was one of tens of millions of people worldwide that year to become ill with the Spanish Influenza. By November the war had ended, and in December, Capra was discharged so that he could recover from his illness.

> It's a Wonderful Life (1946) The Lost Ending - SNL Skit featuring Dana Carvey as Jimmy Stewart, Phil Hartman as Uncle Billy and Dennis Miller as Jimmy's Brother Harry

#3. If you love IAWL or hate it, either way this skit will crack you up! "What are we waiting for, let's go get him!"

> It's a Wonderful Trump (2015) SNL Cold Open S44E09 2019-12-15

Warning: Political. This is pretty funny if you're not a Trump fan and remember some of the things happening around December 2018. The angel shows Trump what the world would be like if he didn't win the Presidency in 2016. Mike Pence is very happy as a DJ.

Image error

> Jingle All the Way (1996) IMDB=5.7 Adventure Comedy Family EngSubs ArnoldSchwarzenegger PhilHartman Sinbad

Arnold's son has lots of Midichlorians.

Image error

> Journey Back to Christmas (2016) IMDB=7.0 TimeTravel Drama Family EngSubs Hallmark CandaceCameron-Bure OliverHudson TomSkerritt

IMDB: A WWII-era nurse is transported in time to 2016 and meets a man who helps her discover the bonds of family and that the true meaning of Christmas is timeless.

> Joyeux Noel (2005) IMDB=7.7 Drama EngSubs Romance War BennoF�rmann DianeKruger GuillaumeCanet

This is a gritty WWI trench warfare movie. On Christmas Eve, the two sides (German vs French and Scottish) come together for a field church service. The next day they bury their dead who had been too difficult to reach during the fighting. Powerful stuff. It's at Christmas time and there are Christmas moments but mostly not. Based on a real event. Not for kids.

> Just Friends (2005) IMDB=6.2 Comedy EngSubs Romance AmySmart AnnaFaris RyanReynolds

Cute comedy with Amy Smart, who is also great in Part 1's "12 Dates of Christmas." Ryan Reynolds and she are best friends in high school, where he was quite chubby. A decade or two go by. Now he's attractive to look at but he's oh-so-stuck in the friend zone. It's a Christmas movie, so there's a happy ending. I laughed a lot.

> Kiss Kiss Bang Bang (2005) IMDB=7.5 Comedy Crime EngSubs Mystery MichelleMonaghan RobertDowneyJr ValKilmer

This is a Christmas movie like Die Hard is a Christmas movie. It's such a good movie that I didn't hesitate to include it. Robert Downey Jr, Val Kilmer, and Michelle Monaghan: nuff said.

> Klaus (2019) IMDB=8.2 Adventure Animation Family EngSubs JasonSchwartzman JKSimmons RashidaJones

For me, Klaus and Arthur Christmas (in Part 1) are the two best animated Christmas movies to come along in the last 20 years.

I prefer Arthur but IMDB raters prefer Klaus, 8.2 vs Arthur's 7.1: that's a big difference.

Why is Klaus so appealing? I'm not sure. Tell me, please.

IMO, Rise of the Guardians is the 21st century's 3rd great animated Christmas (arguably) movie. Part 3.

> Lacy's Christmas Do-Over (2021) IMDB=5.4 GroundhogDayPlot Family Fantasy EngSubs Romance ClaireVanDerLinden JonLovitz KylePatrick

One of the 5 movies in the collection with a Groundhog Day plot, repeating a day over and over. The excellent "12 Days of Christmas" is another (I like that movie and think you will too, that's why I push it).

IMDB: Lacy, a career-driven business woman, goes to a B&B in Illinois at the advice of a new therapist. There she finds herself stuck in a mystical, small Christmas town, reliving the same day over and over. Lacy must figure out how to escape.

> Le Pupille (2022) IMDB=6.7 Comedy Family SelectItalianOrEnglishAudioAndSubtitles EngSubs AlbaRohrwacher CarmenPommella GretaZuccheriMontanari

As the possibly-incomprehensible tag tries to say, this video has both Italian and English audio and Italian and English subtitles. Made in Italy.

IMDB: Follow the rebellious girls of a Catholic boarding school before Christmas, a time of war and scarcity.

Clicking through for a minute or two: cute kids singing plus nuns works for me.

> Little Women (2019) IMDB=7.8 Drama EngSubs Romance EmmaWatson FlorencePugh SaoirseRonan

I went to Louisa May Alcott's gravesite. It was  🤏 more interesting than Plymouth Rock.

> Love Actually (2003) IMDB=7.6 Comedy Drama EngSubs Romance AlanRickman BillNighy ColinFirth

Besides the movie, this torrent includes:

> Love Actually (2003) Mini-Sequel - Red Nose Day Actually IMDB=7.1 EngSubs BillNighy HughGrant KeiraKnightley
> Love Actually (2003) Music Video - Bill Mack (BillNighy) performing Christmas Is All Around (not naked) EngSubs
> Love Actually (2003) SNL Skit - Hillary Actually (2016) IMDB=1.1 It's Hillary Clinton at the door

The mini-sequel is my #1 recommendation. Red Nose Day is an annual fund-raising event in England. The video takes place 13 years after the movie. We see a lot of beloved characters. Not Emma Thompson or Alan Rickman, unfortunately.

I enjoy watching kids turn into adults.

Image error

Yes, that's the little girl who belted out "All I Want For Christmas Is You" in the movie, and the drummer boy who loved her.

The music video starts fifteen seconds in. It might not be suitable for young children. There are two versions, one full screen with poorer quality video, the other smaller and sharper.

Robert Palmer stole the idea for his video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XcATvu5f9vE&ab_channel=RobertPalmerVEVO

Sorry that got so long. Too many screen shots?

GENERAL COMMENTS ABOUT THE COLLECTION (copy-paste from Part 1):

Re exploring these torrents:

Every movie folder has a file named "IMDB". It's actual name is "IMDB.url". If you are on Windows, then double-clicking that file will bring you to the moviee's IMDB page. I don't know what it does on other operating systems.

If you like to have subtitles, "EngSubs" means the movie has English subtitles, "Multisub" means it has English (probably) and a number of other languages. I tried hard to find subtitles, using VLC's View -> VLSub feature. If I didn't find subtitles, they might be available by some other means.

If you are on Windows, then I strongly recommend that you install Voidtool's Everything search utility.

https://www.voidtools.com/downloads/

It will let you instantly find videos when you search for them. (I have no affiliation with Voidtools other than thanking the Deity in the Sky every day for the amazing Everything utility.)

All of the videos have 3 genres and 3 actors after their name and IMDB rating.

Actors are identified by their name with the space removed, e.g. "Barbara Stanwyck" is written as BarbaraStanwyck. This convention avoids false positive when you search for an actor's name, e.g. because "Fred Barbara" is immediately followed by "Stanwyck Van Dorfalot". Ms. Stanwyck has 3 movies in this collection, by the way. ALL highly recommended.

If you install Everything and want to restrict its searches to just this collection, here is the syntax:

> "H:\TG 12-1\0 UPDATED\Christmas Movies" BarbaraStanwyck

The quoted path limits Everything to searching that path. Needless to say, change it to your path LOL.

You need to keep the path SHORT because the folder names are long. If subtitles aren't loading for you, then your path is probably too long.

If "Crime" movies are your thing, search for:

"H:\TG 12-1\0 UPDATED\Christmas Movies" crime

to find the 12 movies in the Crime genre.

You can apply more than one search term. If you like funny romance movies, for example:

"H:\TG 12-1\0 UPDATED\Christmas Movies" comedy romance

will find the 30 movies with both of those genre tags. By default Everything ANDs the tags. Use the || operator if you want to OR them:

> "H:\TG 12-1\0 UPDATED\Christmas Movies" comedy || romance

That will find all of the videos with the comedy OR romance genres, including those with both.

I have tried to identify Hallmark and Lifetime movies as such, but it was a manual process which means I probably erred. If you see the genre "TVMovie", then it might be one of those.

I manually added a few tags.

"Angel" identifies movies with an angel. There are at least 6 in the collection. If I missed some, please comment to that effect.

"GroundhogDayPlot" identifies 5 movies which repeat an interval like Bill Murray's Groundhog Day.

"TimeTravel" identifies movies that ... There are 7 so labelled.

There is ONE "NotForKids" movie, A Very Harold & Kumar Christmas (2011).

My usual process for labelling videos with genres populated 32 videos as "Animations". Looking over the set in Everything, I think that they are all suitable for children, but there are a few I'm unfamiliar with. If you want to check before showing them to your kids, I recommend the site "https://www.commonsensemedia.org/" which gives (IMO) reasonable and believable statements about the age suitability of movies and games etc. (Again, no affiliation).

To give you motivation to install and use the Everything utility, here is a screen shot of my search for "Animation".

Image error

From that list, you can right-click -> Open to go to the folder with the video. You can also do control-a (to select all of the videos in the list) then right-click -> Copy or right-click -> Cut, to copy or move the folders to another location, for example if you want to have a folder of ONLY child-suitable movies.

You can use Everything to identify videos with a given IMDB rating, e.g. if you're looking for the best.

avatar:_B) thanks for the upload....they take awhile to start, but I now see why..... im well over the 1.1 ratio, so that was and never should have been an issue. Unfortunately we need to seed certain torrents INITIALLY longer than we had planned sometime, for one reason or another, and have to delay other torrents, especially in a MULTI part torrent, such as this! No big deal AGAIN: Thanks for the torrents, apologies for the misunderstanding and MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
