The 2017 live-action version is so beautiful that it\u2019ll make you want to watch every Disney movie you own all season long. Plus, it&#8217;s winter\u00a0year-round at Beast\u2019s castle, so that counts as a holiday movie to us.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<hr \/>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/myTaigPrbsg\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3><em>How the Grinch Stole Christmas<\/em><\/h3>\n<p>While we\u2019d watch <em>How the Grinch Stole Christmas<\/em> no matter what time of year it is, it&#8217;s socially acceptable during winter, so get on it.
