What makes a good Christmas Film?

A lot of blog posts and talk is currently surrounding Christmas films, so I decided that I would think about what makes a good Christmas film. Especially as it’s not that we get new quality Christmas films every year it always seems to be older now classic films which everyone makes sure they watch at some point in the build up to Christmas. These must have key elements which make everyone love them and want to watch them year in year out. I think that does help make these films extra special, as long as you get the formula right recent times have been more Christmas Turkeys rather than classics.

Christmas 2011 at the Movies

It’s that time of year again . . . time to watch all of those Christmas films! I thought a small recap of the films I have already reviewed on my blog and the Top 10 Christmas films list I completed last year would be a good way to start and then films which have not been reviewed yet will be added onto the blog! Possibly with more Top 10 lists if I can think of some to do!

Top 10 – Christmas Movies

As it is Christmas Eve today, I thought the best way to celebrate Christmas on the blog would be to do my top 10 Christmas Movies. The one’s I have grew up watching (and loving) and even more recent films will appear too. As over the past few years some very good Christmas films have been released. The best thing about Christmas films is that you are really restricted to watching them in Decemeber. I mean if you really want to you could watch them in July . . . but that’s just not the same at all! So quite a few films in my collection are only watched at this time of year.

What makes a good Christmas movie then? Well I would say it has to be a very Christmasy message usually involving or revolving around family. Most of the better ones also have the Santa factor too!

Christmas 2010 at the Movies

1st December which means we are now officially allowed to watch Christmas movies again (and attempt to get in the Christmas spirit). I reviewed quite a few Christmas films last year, and will probably watch most of them again this year/ After all some of them are my favorite Christmas films. Missed loads though, so be ready for more Christmas reviews if I manage to catch the films of course.

Love Actually I also started doing blogs on the love shared between characters, Billy Mack and Joe. Harry, Karen & Mia.

Home Alone

Home Alone 2: Lost in New York

Fred Claus

Elf

A Christmas Carol 3D

Hopefully I will have some seasonal top 10 lists as well!

Which Christmas films will you be watching first this holiday season?

Christmas at the Movies

As it is now the 2nd of Decemeber, I have decided that the Christmas movie watching (and reviewing) along with top 10 lists all to do with Christmas movies can start. Sky Movies even has a Sky Christmas channel, which I have to admit that I thought would just have Christmas movies on it but far from it just movies you may watch to watch at Christmas possibly?

I also notices that theirs a Christmas 24 Channel which has Christmas movies on all day (and night) which are less known movies, which I may even give a watch every now and then. If the movie sounds good enough to watch . . . so watch this space.

Will you be watching many Christmas movies this year?

Officially Christmas?

Well yesterday I went to Starbucks (yes I have an obsession with Starbucks) and the Christmas Cups came out yesterday.  Now incase you do not know what I mean the Christmas cups are red and Christmas style drinks are out. Yesterday I had a Dark Cherry Mocha which is on the Christmas menu.

And because I am extremly sad I took a picture . . .

So does this mean that I can therefore begin to watch Christmas movies and review and make lists etc? Or shall I wait until Decemeber hits? Views?
