Actors in Family Film Roles!
A couple of nights ago now I turned my TV on and The Flintstones was on with John Goodman as Fred, this was a film I can remember a little from my childhood and when it was first released. It them made me think about other actors that I see from these “kids” films and at the time had no idea that some of these were Oscar nominees or winners and even catching up with their older films I cannot help but remember them from the films that I watched during my younger days!
This is a blog post I have thought about putting together in the past and I have tried to come up with as many actors as possible who I have typecast in what were more family/child aimed films. Feel free to have a think about which actors you still see in this way as well! It is always quite interesting to think about which films you associate with an actor and it is usually the first one you see them in.
Merry Christmas!
I just wanted to take the time to wish all of the followers and supporters of Let’s Go To The Movies a very Merry Christmas!
I hope you all have a truly fantastic day spending time with all of the people who mean something to you and raising a glass to those who are no longer here.
What better way to start off this Christmas Day than Michael Caine singing with the Muppet’s as Scrooge from The Muppet Christmas Carol?
All the best, Caz

The Muppet’s Christmas Carol (1992) Review
I have so much love for this film. The classic Christmas Carol story with Muppets and one of the best Scrooge performances ever from Michael Caine? Come on he was acting with the Muppets!

Take a look at things that make a good Christmas film.
The Muppet Christmas Carol (1992) Review
Everyone knows the story of Ebenezer Scrooge, Bah Humbug. Who on Christmas Eve is visited by three ghosts who will make him question his life and attitude towards those around him. Will he be able to understand Christmas before it is too late?
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.
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!
