I don't know who allowed this to happen, but Christmas is just around the corner. So be of good cheer, and all that—you're running out of days to make it onto the nice list.

We've been watching a ton of Christmas movies the last month or so. In order to help ensure your season is merry and bright, I've compiled this list of the best and worst Christmas movies to watch.

Far warning: Many of these are not objectively good. If not for the season, I would never have watched most of them. But when it comes to Christmas, I've found it’s best to grade on a curve. I've thus grouped the movies into some rough categories.

If we were categorizing Star Wars movies according to the scale I use, it’d break down something like this:

• Don’t Waste Your Time: The Rise of Skywalker. Seriously. Don’t even bother.
• You Could Definitely Do Better: The Phantom Menace, Attack of the Clones. Watchable if you have the time or just love the genre.
• An Okay Way to Spend a Few Hours: Revenge of the Sith. Solidly okay.
• Good, Not Great: The Return of the Jedi, Solo. Movies I would gladly pay money to see.
• Great Movies: The Empire Strikes Back, A New Hope, The Force Awakens, The Last Jedi, Rogue One. Best of the best.

(Even this is on a sliding scale because I'm predisposed to love all things Star Wars.)
