    I stumbled over Groundhog Day on Paramount Channel this evening. That's one of those films I'm always happy to watch over again and again :-)

    That film will pop up many times on TV on numerous channels between now and Christmas. That’s why I ignored it today . I’ve no doubt I will recommend it nearer the 25th . Great film.

    Always surprises me just how few films I’ve watched when I read others comments. Never seen Atonement or Groundhog Day

    Same with me mate. Watched Elf for the first time yesterday, which is surprising considering how much I love Christmas.

    Eye in the Sky is very watchable
  • Is The Fighter the 1 where Mark Wahlberg plays Micky Ward? Good film

    Totally agree. I met a guy when touring India last year who had experience of control/ operation rooms. He said it was a very realistic portrayal of such, especially in respect of collateral human damage.

    I would commend this film to anyone.

    recorded Elf to watch with the kids at some point.

    We all watched Home Alone Friday night, still love that film (both of them)

    I think its exclusive to BT. So you can watch it through sky if you have the BT channels etc.
    Might be on freeview via BT showcase (channel 59? I think)

    The Fighter is a cracking film with Christian Bale. Even Mark Wahlberg turns in a great performance.

    Just watched The Christmas Chronicles.

    I am one pathetic human being. 42 years old and I don’t think there’s a single Christmas film I don’t end up crying watching!!

    Lord of the Rings. All three books are a bit better than the films.

    The Hobbit. The book is much better than the three films.
