Wrong Hands 
i think you hit all the newer ones. Thats why they’ll never be classics, like White Christmas.

Sounds like you’re saying “It’s Christmas, Carol!” and “Merry Matrimony” will never be classics. Where are Bing Crosby and Burl Ives and when you need them?

We literally just finished watching one 10 minutes ago. We know they’re cheesy and formulaic and we still watch one every single day. These two were Old Flames and he was about to hop a flight to Honduras to been a doctor to third world people but then he changed his mind at the last minute and now all is right and they can get married and build the family that he wants even though they’re both clearly in their 40s.

You need a column for “the crisis”.

You mean like “thinks sensitive guy in plaid has a girlfriend, but it’s his sister” or “old flame is still a jerk, except he isn’t”?

Actually … White Christmas does fit this formula. Big city – actor you forgot about from the 50s – returns to small town – to save family business – and magically falls in love with – Christmas , the town and some girl.

They left out the last column about the endings and why we watch the Hallmark Channel.
“THE END: Everyone ends up happy, and no one gets left out.”

So true. And the magical world they live in is so much better than our kitchen.

Hi! I saw this image posted by a friend on Facebook. I thought it was amazingly cool, so I wrote a quick Javascript to generate a plot using this data. You can see it over at my blog: https://kladage.blogspot.com/
Just reload the page, and a new plot is generated.

A friend sent me this yesterday, and I admit I laughed. It is spot on, as far as all the recently made movies. Having said that, there are some really goid Hallmark movies that I continue to enjoy, including; “The Christmas Card”, “The Christmas Note”, “A Christmas to Remember” and “A Christmas Ornament”.

I would love to see a “random Marvel movie generator” — but one of the “fixed” elements would have to be that the villain is someone that Tony Stark got upset by ignoring him/her, embarrassing him/her, or otherwise did him/her wrong.
