Great Thanksgiving movies to watch while you digest your turkey - Detroit Metro Times

[Outrageous]

Man, I'm a bit weird for thinking The Fellowship of the Ring is my go-to Thanksgiving movie . But seriously, I think what draws me to it is how it's all about the little things that bring people together – like sharing food, having good company, and appreciating the beauty in everyday life. Plus, who can resist Sam's love for potatoes? It's just a really heartwarming movie that makes you feel cozy and grateful for the people in your life. And let's be real, it's not every day you get to watch hobbits have a feast in the Shire – talk about a perfect Thanksgiving vibes!

A Thanksgiving movie marathon sounds like a great idea! But let's be real, who needs movies when you can watch cat videos all day? I mean, have you seen Grumpy Cat's Thanksgiving face? It's the perfect mood-setter for your Turkey Day vibes!

I mean can we talk about how messed up our priorities are when it comes to Thanksgiving movies? Like, sure Christmas classics and Halloween frightfests get all the attention, but what about a holiday that's actually supposed to be about people coming together with loved ones

And don't even get me started on the lack of representation for low-income families and marginalized communities during this time. I mean, have you seen The Big Chill? It's basically just a bunch of white people complaining about how they're all aging and irrelevant

But hey, if we can find some hidden gems like Knives Out and Mr. Fox to enjoy with our turkey, that's a start, right? And who knows, maybe next year we can shift the focus back to what Thanksgiving is really about: community, love, and acceptance
