  1. Only if they are living great lives. If they add cheating/divorce/death bullshit it would ruin the first.

  2. Personally I never felt like the movie ended with the promise of lasting relationships for either of the pairings. While remaining a feel good story throughout….I imagine that after new years, Amanda goes home and becomes overwhelmed with the work to catch up on, and Graham is back to being solely focused on being a dad. Time passes, and they both just fondly look back on the what ifs.

    I don’t believe he would have sacrificed time with his children for a long distance relationship between London and LA, especially with his strict boundaries he was upholding since his wife had passed. Iris and Miles maaaaayyyybe, Miles is such a hopeless romantic and both of them had virtually nothing tying them down. But was their chemistry more plantonic than romantic?

    This is where I believe they could very easily pick back up. Like maybe these flings really do just pass, and maybe we pick back up to them crossing paths again, and being reminded of that spark they once had, but never acted on.

    I doubt we’d get a *third* but this could give more definitive endings to their relationship archs. More conclusive happy endings 🙂

    They could do a spinoff type sequel. The daughters/nieces are mid twenties now. Have one of them swap locations and fall in love. A swap between NYC and somewhere tropical like Thailand could be cool.

  4. Ughhhh I mean as much as I liked the story, it stands pretty well on its own, even now.

    The Holiday came out in the dark days of the bush years. I think we need another one.

    I am the only one who thought that film was just ok. Nothing that great? And if anything felt like it was almost trying too hard to be a holiday classic. If I remember it never got that amazing reviews and it wasn’t like a huge hit more medium size. I enjoyed it and all but people act like it’s a holiday classic

    I’ve never once watched this the movie and thought “I wonder what happened to them?” It’s pretty self contained and has a perfect runtime.

    It is pretty easy to imagine. Backstory: shortly after the events of the original movie, Eli Wallach’s character (the kindly old former screenwriter) passes away and leaves Iris his Los Angeles house. She moves to LA and she and Miles get married, have kids, whatever. Amanda and Iris become next-door neighbors and best friends.

    Meanwhile Amanda and Graham tried to make a long distance relationship work but it failed quickly and painfully. Neither one ever got married. 17 years pass.

    The sequel takes place in the present. Graham’s daughters are both grown and independent, so he travels to LA for the holidays to finally win Amanda’s heart and spend the rest of their lives together.

    And there you have it, The Holiday 2: Electric Boogaloo.

    This movie I find problematic only because two women who have careers and nice homes consider themselves losers for not having a decent man.

    And I feel like the only minorities in Nancy Meyer films tend to be “the help”. There is probably one movie where she broke that trend.

    It was a lovely holiday season movie! We enjoy it every year.
