Bearing in mind there is now less than 300 shopping days left until next Christmas why not get yourself in the mood (or a mood certainly) by looking at our indispensable guide (in the form of an advent calendar) to the "Movies that make you feel Christmassy". During the last festive period it featured on both the font page of IMDb.com (6th Dec 2006) and was the Yahoo pick for 8th Dec 2006. During December we invited voters to disagree with our selection - which they did in their droves. Why not check out the guide and disagree with us some more. Now with added Christmas countdown timer. | |
