It has Christmas music in the soundtrack, the b plot is about family mending, and it takes place during a Christmas party.

Yeah but IMO those trappings don't make it a Christmas movie. Die Hard is an action movie people like to watch around Christmas, which is all a movie needs to make it a Christmas movie. I mean there's porn that features Santa's naughty elves, but nobody watches it to get into the Christmas spirit.

You might not, but it doesn't mean other people don't. Elf is a Christmas themed family movie the same way Die Hard is a Christmas themed action movie.

Saying that first line as someone who has written some holiday themed smut before.

Some conversations are people just saying what they think and not offering airtight, irrefutable proofs.
