Yup...rehashed shyte they've shown many times before....i guess they had no budget after paying Kenny and Tubs :rolleyes:

Only thing watchable there is Bourne.

They make no mention of the "Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" trilogy which is on RTE2 (and C4) over Christmas and which I'm looking forward to watching.

Lady Chatterton

I better get on the Amazon website and order a few dvds, that line-up is very disappointing

AnonoBoy

At least there's a Mrs. Brown special. Thank f*ck for small mercies, eh? :rolleyes:

BobbyPropane

The Bourne Ultimatum
Inglorious Basterds
I Love You Man,
Fight Club
Walk The Line

Pretty much the only good things.

Is this a new one or just repeats?

I think it's new.

Thought Avatar is in the ads? I assumed it would be the Christmas Day movie.

And thanks to that link, I see a show about Ferris Bueller is on at 9

NegativeCreep

Where are all the christmas films? Also, they aren't going to show the first speed, they're going to show the awful sequel?? Poor form.

Slightly more comprehensive list here of the RTE Christmas fare here

Still not much to get excited about, although it does include the prospect of the intriguingly titled 'Inglorious Basterds Fight Club'.

The first rule of Inglorious Basterds Fight Club is that you don't talk about Inglorious Basterds Fight Club etc

lertsnim

That's not too bad for a terrestrial channel

CastorTroy

Confused why they chose the least interesting from here
http://www.rte.ie/presspack/2012/12/03/rte-television-unwraps-christmas-schedule/

Movies listed here include

Up, It’s Complicated, Avatar, Leap Year, Salt, the original Swedish versions of The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo, The Girl Who Kicked The Hornet’s Nest and The Girl Who Played With Fire, The Social Network, Four Christmases, Tangled and Alice In Wonderland. Other great titles include Waltz With Bashir and The Secret Of Kells.

RTE just seems to rely on films to fill their Christmas schedules with a the odd new "special" programme. What's the xmas day movie - It's Complicated?

CastorTroy

I would guess Avatar will be the Christmas Day movie and be on around the same time as UTV or BBC, whichever gets it

lertsnim

Avatar is being shown on RTE One on New Years Day at 9.30pm

BBC One looks pretty ****e for Christmas Day. They are showing Shrek the Halls and Madagascar 2 with the usual Christmas specials like Docotr Who and Strictly.

ITV looks dull too

ITV just has the soaps and Downton Abbey. I suspect it will be It's Complicated on xmas night. Streep is quite popular in Ireland.

blu-ray for me then on santa day.

JP Liz V1

Music fans have much to look forward to over Christmas with Michael Bublé:
Home for the Holidays; Joe Dolan - Sweet Little Rock 'n' Roller; For One Night
Only; Stepping Out With Katherine Jenkins; Mumford & Sons Road to Redrocks
and Amy Winehouse: The Day She Came to Dingle

BabysCoffee

The family stone - great one of my fave Christmas movies!

branie

I have some of the films sheduled on DVD and blu-ray

He didnt do such a great job at the end of 2008. At least shameless, self serving "property expert" has gone underground since..... Good bless anybody who took her advice..
