My obligatory Christmas telly – what is yours?
-
Dear faithful readers,
as I promised here is a list of my mandatory television watching over the holiday period. It is definitely not the coolest list I have made that is for sure. On the positive side at least I have not listed Home Alone
But it’s the holidays and I feel you should watch whatever you damn well please without feeling naff about it. So tell me dear readers about your mandatory Christmas viewing -and the trust me the naffer the better, we don’t judge here
Christmas is not Christmas without seeing at least one Harry Potter. I don’t know how this tradition started but I quite like it. It also usually involves a plate of cakes so that might have something to do with it too.
You cannot miss it really – there are reruns of Sound of Music every single year without fail. It is no wonder we all know ALL songs.
This has got to be one of the most hilarious Christmas movies I have ever seen. If you haven’t seen it yet make sure you do this year. And if it doesn’t have you in stitches you can come here and call me a silly sausage.
Not because I like this movie. I don’t really and not because it is an old movie (I do love my old movies). But another one that is stuck on repeat every single year. And I usually see bits of it before I pass out from too much food.
Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring
I must have seen Lord of Rings about gazillion times by now. No, I’m exaggerating – about a million times
But it’s cool since it means I can read a book, grab a snack, go to the loo and talk on the phone (and not necessarily in that order) without missing a thing. Plus it’s always nice to see Viggo Mortensen, little hobbits and of course my favorite Gandalf
Oh and New Zealand, I’m a sucker for New Zealand. Ha! And I don’t even watch Dr. Who regularly.
I do love a good cartoon. And Wallace and Gromit are one of the best.
