    Most of my family couldn't come over today due to dangerous driving conditions in my area so I had a long day in front of the telly with wine and food.

    I watched 'Its A Wonderful Life' and 'Scrooged'. 'Die Hard' is on now and I've just realised the wine is hitting me because I originally wrote 'Diet Hard' there. My brain is trying to tell me to stop eating I think :D

    What are you favourite Christmas movies and what did you watch today?

    I just watched The Quiet Man, really enjoyed it. Mamma Mia! is on in the background now, a really bad film, but perfect for Christmas.

    In our house, we only watch bits of this and bits of that, because people will not shut the fuck up. After today's effort, I'm sure that Shrek was in It's A Wonderful Life, along with Pierce Brosnan, even though the movie was made 60 odd years ago.:(

    Although Batman Begins is on TCM - excellent show and perfect for the huge LCD and surround sound speakers I bought not just one week ago.

    No movies for me. I listened to an opera instead - Wagner's Tannhäuser on Radio 3. And now I'm listening to some podcasts I've downloaded from Radio Ulster.

    Watched bits of several movies - Avatar, Four Christmases, Love Actually, and for some reason, The Final Destination. That last one was really not something I wanted to be watching just after my Xmas dinner!
