Harry Potter films are an annual Yuletide tradition for many.
I haven’t even watched the extended US versions of PS (SS) and CoS yet. I’ll have to remember to acquire them.
I always catch one or two on TV.
Stovetop, Similar to The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, makes me wonder if it is the mere existence of in-universe Christmas that makes the movies a “Christmas” tradition.

Gremlins. And Anna & The Apocalypse.
rockerface, Had those in Ukraine on TV, too, as a kid. Harry Potter and Home Alone
GabrielBell12fi, Two films that have quite a lot in common
Little kid get abandoned by his family.
An adult gets set on fire at one point.
Another adult suffers a lot of pain due to a kid.
There’s a creepy old guy that you don’t know whether they are good or evil until the end.
