5 Must-Watch Disney Movies for Every Christmas
The joy of Disney is that they have something for any life scenario, whether you're going through a friend breakup or falling in love with a romantic partner for the first time. The holidays are no exception, either! You can find something to appreciate, even if you're simply searching for something to spread the Christmas spirit.
Below, discover our must-watch Disney movies every Christmas season, including The Nightmare Before Christmas, Beauty and the Beast and more.
Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas
While some argue that The Nightmare Before Christmas is a Halloween film, its slight nod to other holidays makes it perfect for Christmastime. After all, the movie wouldn't have the storyline it did without Christmas inspiring Jack Skellington. So much that he'd want to capture the holiday for his own town!
A Christmas Carol
Many people read Charles Dickens's A Christmas Carol as a holiday staple, but the Disney film is equally as heart-warming. In this Christmas classic, you'll enter the gloomy world of Ebenezer Scrooge. But after a visit from Christmas' past, present and future, our main character realizes the holidays aren't so terrible after all.

Beauty and the Beast: The Enchanted Christmas
Beauty and the Beast is one of our favorite Disney Princess movies, and its spin-off, The Enchanted Christmas, should also receive an award for one of Disney's best sequels.
Set in the center of the original story, our Beast is fiercely against Christmas (because that's when the enchantress cast her spell on him). Despite his distaste, Belle decides to celebrate Christmas. We see quite a few miscommunications happening, but a change of heart might help the Beast realize Christmas isn't so bad.
The Santa Clause
It's Santa Claus, not Santa Clause—except in this film.
This Tim Allen movie introduces Scott Calvin, a father who learned Santa wasn't real at a very young age. Suddenly, Scott startles Santa, causing him to fall to his death and forcing Scott to take on the role of Santa due to a legal technicality called the "Santa Clause."
The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special
Not interested in viewing a full-length feature this holiday season? No need to worry because the Guardians of the galaxy have your back. This 42-minute special reunites the whole team.
Peter Quill notoriously hates Christmas. But Mantis and Drax are determined to make sure he's no Scrooge, gifting him Kevin Bacon to make all his dreams come true.
