It's most likely if they are "that way", we'll know about it. Hallmark has been promoting a certain young fella of that persuasion in many of their movies. I just can't deal with the kissing scenes! I'm wondering if the female leads are aware and given a choice? I'm not going to understand it all but I'm certainly going to pray for them!Lindanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4945596937015597963.post-67402293651047831422020-01-25T21:08:20.008-05:002020-01-25T21:08:20.008-05:00I just watched the movie tonight.

I wanted to puke. Someone mentioned that they were married in the movie, but I did not see or hear that in the movie. If I wanted to watch gay people kiss, I would have chosen a different movie. They are trying to push their lifestyle on the rest of us like it is normal.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07230369523060878726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4945596937015597963.post-12492298582480709082019-12-11T21:27:42.368-05:002019-12-11T21:27:42.368-05:00Just an fyi for viewers who are Christians and bel...Just an fyi for viewers who are Christians and believe in traditional marriage... the Lifetime movie "Christmas Unleashed" introduces a gay couple about halfway into the movie.

But then I figured it might be better to at least watch them and that way be able to share with friends whether there was any objectionable content that should be avoided for Christian family movie nights. So, last night I watched "Merry Liddle Christmas" and thought it was a lot of fun; I enjoyed the loving, chaotic Liddle family. Nothing in it was any more objectionable than other secular holiday movies. It's so nice to settle down with a nice cup of tea and watch cozy Christmas movies. (And so very annoying when you have to hit the delete button halfway through! Hopefully Alicia's research is accurate and there is only one more to find and delete. "Staging Christmas" wasn't as blatant as the other two, and I actually got farther into the movie before I hit delete because I wasn't certain where that story angle was going, but then they made their agenda quite obvious.)<br />~JaneAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4945596937015597963.post-55611000021397152472019-12-04T17:23:01.636-05:002019-12-04T17:23:01.636-05:00Thank you for all these details, Anonymous.

Today, I saw something on Google about there being 4 Lifetime movies this year promoting homosexuality, so it appears we have one more to identify. Perhaps you're right that it will be "The Christmas Hotel".

I think many of us Christians are feeling the same way this Christmas with these new Lifetime movies featuring these homosexual couples. Unfortunately, this movement is moving in everywhere we look these days. Everyone has the right to their own free choices, but it also our choice as believers - to not to watch this sort of entertainment. <br /><br />I feel your heart here with your comment.

I'm sorry to hear you all didn't know beforehand. I think a lot of people were taken by surprise with this storyline.

It is so sad to see the direction Lifetime has taken this year. I think they will end up losing a lot of viewers because no one can trust that their Christmas movies are family friendly any longer. <br /><br />That is very smart to wonder about the next movie coming from Hybrid, "The Christmas Hotel." I, too, will be on guard when it comes to watching Lifetime Christmas movies in the future, if I decide to bother at all.Net - "It's a Wonderful Movie"https://www.blogger.com/profile/01680194388277190995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4945596937015597963.post-37800366256089598602019-12-03T18:16:26.483-05:002019-12-03T18:16:26.483-05:00Thanks to your WONDERFUL blog, I've been recor...Thanks to your WONDERFUL blog, I've been recording ALL the great Christmas movies and gradually watching them when I have time. Unfortunately, this particular movie is the third Lifetime movie I've had to delete halfway through viewing. What a waste of fun, movie-viewing time! I wish there were a list somewhere of all the same-sex-couple/politically-correct movies so I could just avoid them (I'm definitely going to be stopping in to read your comments more often now!). I wrote down the names of the production companies for the movies I've deleted and I'll be more careful in the future with any of their other productions. So far, due to the same-sex couple issue, I've had to delete: <br />"A Christmas Wish"(married, gay couple w/child) (Active Entertainment, producers Ken Badish & Daniel Lewis); <br />"Twinkle All the Way"(married, gay couple, kiss) (Off Camera Entertainment, producer Stephanie Slack); <br />"Staging Christmas"(lesbian couple) (Hybrid, LLC, producer Jeff Schenk). <br />An upcoming movie on 12/21/19 called "The Christmas Hotel" is also produced by Hybrid, LLC, so I'll be curious to see if it has the same issues.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4945596937015597963.post-19655648814008577692019-12-01T16:38:24.872-05:002019-12-01T16:38:24.872-05:00We too are Christians and were

No kids in my house, so no awkward conversations. Just a "yuck" reaction from all of us Christian adults. Other than that, it was a cute movie.
