A New Year = Lots of New Movies

I have to admit that I have totally slacked with reviews and even general posts on my blog over the Christmas and New Year period. Mainly due to the fact that I have surprisingly not watched very many movies at all. Which was not my plan, I usually find it a good time to catch up on some movies which I have missed watching in the past but this did not happen this year. I have not actually been to the cinema in quite a few weeks now and have yet to see Avatar. I am planning on Nine tomorrow, we are going to be entering a busy time at the cinema with a lot of new movies coming out which should mainly be good as it is awards season soon.

So I hope everyone had a great Christmas and New Year . . . who can believe it is 2010 already ?!?! Where does the time go!!

What are you looking forward to movie wise this year?

Karen and Harry – – – Harry and Mia

This story or more triangle has to contain the most heartbreaking scene of the movie. Harry (Alan Rickman) is married to Karen (Emma Thompson) and they have two children. Mia (Heike Makatsch) is Harry’s new secretary and makes no attempt to hide the fact that she fancies him.

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?

A Christmas Carol (2009) Review

Charles Dicken’s classic tale of Ebenezer Scrooge is given an animated Disney look, and if you so wish 3D (2D is still available). I just had to go for the 3D option in an attempt to try to make my mind up whether I like it better or not. Scrooge is taken on a journey of redemption by three ghosts, the ghost of Christmas past, present and future. Going back looking at his life as it was, how it is today and how it will not be for very much longer. But can he be convinced to change his ways?
