The David Niven version would’ve been a bolder choice imo

Agreed. Classic.
How did they do that?

If Seven are running the National Lampoon movies in this week, I reckon Christmas Vacation will keep with Nine’s old tradition (as Seven got rights last year) of Christmas night. The Polar Express and any other Christmas network premieres from 20C Fox/Warner Bros will probably be in the following week leading-up to Christmas, Home Alone 2 and Home Alone 3 haven’t aired yet, after Seven ran the first one a week or two ago.

Seven, again, this is not a FTA premiere (getting their own wording wrong, seeing as they love to often use “first time” which they should’ve in this case) 
“Paper Towns” premiered on Eleven on 21st of August last year.

Seven’s Christmas movies will primarily be airing on 7flix this year, due to cricket commitments.
There’s already been European Vacation, Vegas Vacation and Frozen (not sure if any of those are actually Christmas) on main channel and 7flix. From tonight over the next couple of weeks on 7flix:
Fred Claus
Home Alone
Home Alone 2
Home Alone 3
The Polar Express
Love Actually
Jingle All The Way
Jack Frost
Plus a bunch of made for TV ones on 7flix too (like you’d see at midday) and Christmas Vacation will again be on Christmas night.
Nine have been airing some on weekends already and Ten nothing sadly.
9Go!'s 9pm movie on Wednesday is now Kindergarten Cop

@Zampakid might have to confirm, but I believe tonight’s “The Santa Clause 3” is the first time the current Disney logo (2006?) has been seen on Nine?
Thanks for that
I think it’s time for Disney to update again, been 12 years now, only tweaked since with removing the “Pictures” and then the "Walt’
Christmas Eve movie “Home Alone 2” (return to Seven after last airing on 10)
Home Alone 3 is also airing on X-Mas Eve, also previously aired on Seven

10 Peach will be airing “Tim Burton’s Nightmare Before Christmas” (1993) tomorrow night.
A network premiere, from their Disney deal, previously on Seven.
Interestingly, even though this was ‘rebranded’ with a Walt Disney Pictures label, it was still originally produced by Touchstone Pictures. Hence, 10 are still yet to actually air a film of the former, which Nine seem to now have struck (e.g.) Santa Clause movies.

Love Actually on Seven again tonight. Wasn’t it on a couple of weeks ago? Seems to be a late schedule change as well.
By the way, I reckon they have used the same promo for it for the past two years!
