Christmas movies that take place around Christmas but aren't really Christmasie

[Canada]

Die Hard
Die Hard 2
Lethal Weapon
Lethal Weapon 2 ( because it continues the same story from the first)
Das Boot
Band of Brothers

[The Guilty Party]

It was fun to brainstorm some of these up and here's what I can add.

Gremlins, Eyes Wide Shut, Ghostbusters II, & The Ref.

Home Alone: It's set at Christmas but I'm not positive that it falls into the same category as Scrooged, Christmas Vacation, etc.

Rocky IV: Rocky fights Drago in Moscow on Christmas.

King Kong (recent remake): I *believe* the events in New York are set during Christmas. At the very least, it's winter because I remember Kong crashing into a snow drift while playing on the ice (wow, that sounds completely insane).

If I think of any more, I'll post them

[Batman1980]

You guys forgot Bad Santa, the movie every child who still believes in Santa should see.

It doesn't fall under the same category as the rest listed, but it has become a tradition in my home to watch the first 2 home alone movies during christmas.

The fact that someone even thought of that makes me laugh... but the fact that I know you're right makes me sad.

One of the fight sequences in Billy Jack was obvioulsy filmed during Christmas time because you can see the X-mas decorations in the background.

[kevinbr100]

sleepless in seattle, originally scheduled as a holiday release, got bumped to summer (theatrical). takes place during the christmas season.

[DaleDark]

Silent Night, Deadly Night anyone (unless a guy in Santa drag yelling "naughy" while plunging an axe into someones groin gets you in the x-mas spirit).

[koontz1973]

The very best Christmas film that is not very Christmas like.
