Hallmark Christmas movies are known to be a little on the questionable side, the trope is always very confusing and why are people time-traveling? Some trends just tend to stick around for the long hall but most people may question why.
There is no questioning that this seems a little much, maybe not using the same background for each film would help.
In this article written by Mustafa Gatollari, he touches on subjects that may be even more questionable.
"Others noted that the holiday flicks don't necessarily feature the most diverse of casts, and delineated the "rubric" for making a Hallmark Christmas movie poster: a white couple wearing red and green, a tree, and some type of glowing light assortment in the background," Gatollari says.
Bringing up the fact that every single person in these posters looks the same, I think the Hallmark channel is sticking to a specific trend.
Looking for diversity is something important in every film, if everyone looks the same in each and every movie a lot of people are gonna look in the other direction when something comes out. There are more options when it comes to Christmas movies, maybe not as cringe-worthy but for sure ones with more diversity.
Clearly, the Hallmark channel knows its audience and there is a reason why they are still around, turning a summer set into a winter wonderland and using the same set for every movie may be why the audience tends to think it is always the same movie just a different trope.
"It’s easy to turn to the Hallmark Channel around the holidays and start watching whatever fluffy movies are on during its seemingly endless marathons. But out of all the Hallmark movies we asked about, only a few people have seen any of these real titles.
We can’t say exactly whether folks never watched these flicks, or they just can’t remember them out of the slew of holiday movies. It seems that Hallmark movies, like beautiful unique snowflakes, they all start to blend together after you clump them up," Trevor Wheelwright speaks on Hallmark films for an article on Cabletv.com.
