Film and Theatre Lover!
Every year as it gets close to Christmas time I find myself watching the same films you watch every year, but the good thing about them is that it’s special because you only watch them during a certain few weeks in December. So these seven films will be in no particular order and I will attempt to say what I like about them and why exactly I look forward to watching them at Christmas time.
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!

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!
Today’s quote is another from Elf. Yes I really do love that film and it is such a quotable film too! Buddy is just comedy gold.
“The best way to spread Christmas Cheer, is singing loud for all to hear.”
Today’s quote is another from Elf, it really is a great Christmas film. The greatest insult ever!
“I’m a cotton-headed ninny-muggins.”
The movie quotes leading up to Christmas are all going to have a nice Christmasey feel to them! Starting off with a great quote from Buddy. Everyone’s favorite Elf!
“First we’ll make snow angels for two hours, then we’ll go ice skating, then we’ll eat an entire roll of Toll House cookie dough as fast as we can, and then to finish, we’ll snuggle!”
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 2: Lost in New York
Hopefully I will have some seasonal top 10 lists as well!
Which Christmas films will you be watching first this holiday season?
This is the start of my count down of the 50 best films of the decade . . .
A Christmas time comedy, which is actually really funny . . . but has plenty of Christmas Spirit reminding us the whole point of this holiday. We follow Buddy the Elf who is actually human, on a quest to find his real father, who just happens to live in New York City.
