Christmas Movies that aren't "Christmas" Movies

When this time of year rolls around, I always forget about movies that take place during the holidays, but aren't "Christmas" movies per se. A few that come to mind are:

Die Hard
Batman 2
Gremlins
Stranger Things (not a movie)
Reindeer Games

What are some other ones you can think of?

Lethal Weapon as well.

Good one New Creation!

Also, Die Hard 2.

What's a little weird is that Frozen is popping up as a "Christmas" movie.

Life of Brian (well at least the beginning anyway takes place during the birth of Christ)
Chronicles of Narnia - The Lion, The Witch & the Wardrobe

Excellent addition, can't believe I didn't consider this one.

Die Hard & Die Hard 2 are Christmas movies because they take place during the Christmas Season.  And when all the killing is done, everyone who isn't dead or in jail gets to go home and open presents.

It's been a long time since I've watched them, but I'm pretty sure that Home Alone and Home Alone 2 both fit this description.

Invasion USA (the 1985 version)
Grumpy Old Men
Rocky 4
Iron Man 3
Child's Play

Several of the Harry Potter movies have Christmas scenes.

Every once in a blue moon, I think of something clever/intelligent.  I try not to let it go to my head.

Star Trek: Generations also has a Christmas tie in.

It sure is, and fits this thread nicely. I really enjoyed that movie, seeing Shatner's Kirk in action one last time.

The first Spider-Man (from 2002) had a Thanksgiving scene, so therefore, the rest of the film after that scene likely takes place during Christmas.

I think that now we are stretching things a bit!

I don't really have a particular Christmas movie, but every year on my birthday I watch The Big Lebowski.
