Holiday Movies at Home

My husband and daughter both have the week of from work and school. It’s so nice to have time to be together and just relax, no plans. The only shopping I need to do is at the grocery store and so, hopefully, I’ll be able to avoid the crowds. One of our favorite things to do when we’re at home together is to watch movies. This is such a great time of year for watching all the old classic holiday movies that we love. Just the other night we sat together and watched Cary Grant in The Bishop’s Wife while we ate warm apple pie with ice cream that my husband had picked up while running errands. It was such a great way to spend the evening.

Of course, we also like adding to our movie viewing by watching some of the more recent movies and one that has come to my attention is All Roads Lead Home The Movie, inspired by a true story. It’s a great family movie that shows how a family deals with tragedy. This movie is coming out on DVD on January 13 and is available now for pre-order. This is definitely the kind of movie you can watch with the kids and a giant bowl of popcorn and I’m sure we’ll be adding it to our DVD collection.

Feel free to watch this trailer and I’m sure you’ll then be wanting to add it to your collection too.

Planning to See Twilight the Movie

My daughter is so excited, only a few more days until Twilight is released in movie theaters! She is planning to see the movie come hell or highwater! Guess I better plan on taking her.

She has read the first two books in the series and has the third book on her Christmas wish list. This is a movie trailer so we can all get our fill of Edward, the hot vampire, and Twilight.

Sex and The City

I just heard the news that a sequel to the first Sex and The City movie is in the works.   Kim Cattrell was being interviewed in the United Kingdom and let it slip that a 2nd movie was in the works.  This is fantastic news for all SITC fans and should be too surprising considering how well the first movie did at the box office as well as in DVD sales..

According to Cattrell, the movie will be in the works next summer.

How about you, are you a fan of Sex and the City?
