Is Batman Returns A Christmas Movie?

What you guys think, is Batman Returns a Christmas movie since it take place around Christmas time? I think yes.

I think if Die Hard and Lethal Weapon count as Christmas movies (they do in my book) then Batman Returns definitely does. If I remember correctly, the last lines spoken in that movie is “peace on Earth and goodwill towards men…and women”. Then we learn Catwoman survived (resurrected?) That feels like a Christmas miracle to me…

Yes… Yes it does lol I mean the movie takes place during the holiday season, it has tons of Christmas imagery mixed in, and the movie ends with the line…

"Alfred Pennyworth: Well come what may. Merry Christmas, Mr. Wayne.

Batman / Bruce Wayne: Merry Christmas, Alfred. Good will towards men…and women."

…So it’s DEFINITELY a Christmas Movie in my book & a tradition I & my son watch every Christmas season.

I want to say yes, but more than likely it’s a no. It’s set during Christmas, but it’s more a Batman movie than a Christmas movie in my opinion. But definitely ok to watch during Christmas. :slight_smile:
