A Movie For Every Season...

With Autumn coming upon us, I feel that same excitement I feel every year. The best weather, the best holidays (Halloween duh! and Thanksgiving), the best traditions, and the best memories... Fall just rocks my world. Anyway, I was thinking about the holidays and how I seem to have a movie for each one. (I really enjoy a good movie, guys) Seriously, without fail my sisters and I will pop one in around every Holiday without even thinking about it sometimes. And if we miss one, I start to crave it and quote it constantly until we do watch it. I know, get a life already... Sorry. Time for a list!

Halloween (Starting with the best obvs:): The Village
Okay, so this one we don't watch every year but I wish we did. So good! The soundtrack is great by itself as well.

Kind of a long clip, but such a good scene. I especially love when the guy drops the door on his head haha!

Thanksgiving:
So we don't really have a movie for this one so I am putting Lord of the Rings here. If you don't watch the trilogy annually, well, let's just say you aren't living right or something.

Christmas:
There are too many movies for Christmas. We end up watching classics like Elf or Christmas Story a lot but without fail we must watch Muppet's Christmas Carol and A White Christmas. If we aren't singing those cheesy songs, it just isn't Christmas.


Valentines:
Pride and Prejudice. Always. And not the crappy Keirra Knightly version, we go old school dude.

St. Paddy's Day:
Secret of Roan Inish. That or Darby O'Gill and the Little People... but you need a break from that one every now and then:)

Easter:
We don't actually have a Holiday movie for this one either, but usually around Spring we end up watching Emma. I don't mean my sister, I mean the movie. Though watching my sister Emma is probably just as entertaining.



4th of July:
Summer is just too busy to be watching movies, but if we did I wish we watched 1776 the musical every year. Haha then again... maybe I don't wish that.

Well, there you have it. I know I missed some of the big holidays like President's Day or MLKJr day, but it will have to do for now:)

  1. Love you blog, Meg. You nailed it with The Village! I like to watch Hocus Pocus every year too. For us, Lonesome Dove is watched around March every year.
