Ok, I don't think that this gives anything away, especially since I think there's a bunch wrong in there: 1) I E S 2) U E 3) S T A 4) S U 5) 1 & 10 of 10 6) N E 7) I V 8) R T 9) T S Seems you have a few right. 8 different movies and with tv show trivia cross referenced and at least one of the movies started as a book.

R3TROB1RD Thanks for the hints, but I don't think we will have this solved by Christmas without a little help. Maybe start with how many of pb123's answers are correct. I have many of the same. I would change #1 to HIA and add NR for number 5, but not with any confidence. Maybe KG for #4 as well. Do any of those improve on PB123's work? Thanks!

Two Home Alone references.
Christmas Vacation, Story, and Carol references.
Bill is Cosby.
And one controversial Christmas movie in there. Is it a Christmas movie or not?

This might be a weird question, but are you certain of the spelling on the answer about the controversial one? P.S. it IS a Christmas movie!!

Congrats!!
What 3 words led me to a small town in NY, where a famous NY Xmas-related item was sourced this year.
Is a connection to that object the right path?

There were 3 people to solve the Road Trip and submitted the answer. Anyways here are the answers to get the final solution
Here are the solutions:
Little Neros Buddy The Elf Scott Calvin Ralph Parker John McClane (I posted I missed a dash in the errata hints) Aunt Bethany Ugly Sweaters Fezziwig Turtle Doves
what3words location --> ///seekers.statue.jingles
Happens to be the backyard of where the 2023 Rockefeller tree was harvested from, a Norwegian Fir.
Follow the poetic prose and you get to the "Prometheus" statue in Rockefeller Center.
