t’s Chriiiiiistmaaaaas! As such, it’s time for some seasonal silver screen action. My pick for this
year’s festive film-going is the latest jaunt through Middle Earth, as it’s time to catch up with Bilbo Baggins and his gang of burly yet crockery-conscious dwarves for another 3-hour segment of the longest quest since some pregnant woman and her fella stole a donkey in Nazareth. You might be asking yourself why this is an ideal Christmas film? Did you not read the bit where I said that a gang of little people all work for a big, white bearded magician who can summon animals to fly him through the sky? Plus there are elves in it! Te film follows on from the plot of the first one (obviously) and features all the same actors/characters, which, as you may remember, includes Martin Freeman,

Sir Ian McKellan and Andy Serkis. It also stars my favourite actor of the moment – Benedict Cumberbatch as both Smaug the Dragon and the Necromancer, both of which he owns like a slave workshop in Lapland. If that’s not enough to make you go and watch it, I’ll eat my Santa hat, so let’s end the year off on some Christmassy facts regarding the film. 1) Tis film is made by Peter Jackson. Peter Jackson played the Santa that stabs Simon Pegg through the hand in Hot Fuzz. 2) Dudley Moore played the chief elf in Santa Claus the Movie. Dudley Moore is not in this film – he is dead. 3) Stephen Fry is in this film, he was also in Little Big Planet for the PS3, and for Christmas this year I would like a PS4. Also, readers, some socks, a new jumper and lots of booze. Merry Christmas! Smiley
