Hello.

So right now, the whole world is right in the middle of a global pandemic [if you didn’t know] and pretty much everyone is bored. Like extreeeemmly bored. So here is a list of 7 films to watch while lying on your sofa eating leftover easter chocolate and fantasizing about when the goverment will let us out of our houses, if that ever happens…

[Most of these movies are available on Netflix, Amazon Prime, or Disney+]

3. Kiki’s Delivery Service U [1989]

In this Studio Ghibli feature, a young witch and her talking cat leave home in search for the perfect town. Made by the same company as Spirited Away and Howels Moving Castle, It is a Japanese classic anime film which everyone will enjoy. [Maybe..]

4. Mean Girls 12 [2004]

Cady is new at school, and when she meets Janis and Damian they tell her to avoid the plastics, the ‘popular’ group led by Regina George and her minions. But when Regina befriends Cady and tells her about the burn book, where the plastics write gossip and insults about people at school, things get even worse.

5. Stargirl PG [2020]

Stargirl is a mysterious, previously homeschooled newbie at Mica High, Arizona , where nothing ever happens. Stargirl is different, she wears different clothes, she acts differently and she doesn’t even have a phone. Leo , a normal student starts to fall in love with her… This film is available on Disney+ and is starring Grace VanderWaal.

6. Indiana Jones and The Raiders of The Lost Ark PG [1981]

Indiana Jones [an explorer played by Harrison Ford] has to set out to find the lost ark in eygpt, but must face the Nazis who want the very same artefact.

7. House with a clock in it’s walls 12a [2018]

10 year old Lewis is sent to live with his weird uncle [Jack Black] in his creepy house that makes a ‘tick tock’ noise every night. He soon learns that his uncle and the eccentric Mrs. Zimmerman are practitioners of the dark, magical arts. I watched this movie at midnight at a sleepover with a couple of friends and lets just say midnight was not the best time to watch it…
