Maybe it wouldn't be so bad if it involved CHRISTMAS!

Ok so what does every classic holiday movie include (hell I am not even talking about real classics like a christmas carol, 34th street or holiday inn because those are just too much for those idiots to comprehend) Lets just go with modern classics, Home Alone, Christmas Story, Christmas Vacation, Jingle all the way, Santa Clause and I'll be home for christmas. They all have a central theme, family, togetherness, warmth, snow, trees, lights etc. I somewhat had some faith in this piece of trash before it was revealed the name was "Cousin Eddies Island Adventure". Just because the movie takes place in december and has one winter scene does not make it christmas by a long shot, sorry for the rant and stupidity but this was a sequel that possibly could have made something of itself with better writing casting and budget. *beep* NBC!

I don't understand how Harry Potter is considered a christmas movie by being on ABC family's 25 days of x-mas. Theres maybe 5 minutes tops of christmas stuff.

Yes, I totally agree. The main reason why this is unwatchable is because I personally dig it up each christmas, and realize that it doesn't "make the season bright" at all. It's a summer movie set during christmas. I thought it was ok the first time I saw it, but it's not a good christmas movie.
