Talkie Tuesday: Gingerbread Miracle

 

"There are no coincidences at Christmas."

 

Hello everyone!

 

This week's choice of movie is one of the rare few I've actually enjoyed while watching this year's Hallmark lineup.

I don't know what it is, to be honest, because I usually like more than just a few.

This year seems to be a weird one, however, either with the lineup in question, or just because of the weird year altogether.

ANYWAY, tonight's choice is still a good one however because it has one of the most popular actresses for the production, and that's saying something with all the other veteran ones out there, but the camera does love her, so.

Either way you look at it, it's a movie that's got a little something for everybody that wants to watch it if you ask me.

So let's not waste any more time and jump straight into Gingerbread Miracle, shall we?

Talkie Tuesday: Picture a Perfect Christmas

"Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse ..."

Hello everyone!

Welcome back to the blog, and welcome to this year's Christmas extravaganza!

I know, I know, Christmas is still weeks away, but on this blog it arrives early, aka it's hitting the ground running tonight with the first seasonal blog post that I'm starting right now.

As you probably all know I have this thing for Hallmark where I'll watch quite a few of their movies if I can get my hands on them - and since figuring out that there are good Samaritans out there who put up an actual list on Wikipedia, well, that just makes my life SO much easier!

That being said, I know not everyone enjoys these, and I do occasionally hit a snag myself when I'm expecting too much from one movie or the other.

Not this time, though.

No, for the start of my Christmas blogging this year, I picked a good one. Can you picture it snowing? I bet some of you in the US can. While you're at it, Picture a Perfect Christmas, too.

Talkie Tuesday: Christmas at the Palace

"They really love Christmas here."

Hello everyone!

Time for Christmas movie number two in my four-week Christmas extravaganza here on the blog, and unlike the one from last week during which I clearly enumerated reasons I will probably not be watching it again, this one is a big positive. 

I mean, in general, when it comes to Christmas, most of it is positive.

But unforunately with some movies, the dialogue is just bordering on absurd and you can't ever relax into the story when you keep thinking 'who even SAYS that?!'

For this week, however, I picked a movie that looked and sounded promising to me when I first saw the previews airing online, and I have to admit I liked both the leads.

Sometimes, actors really do make or break a movie, no matter if their side kicks are fun to watch.

Christmas at the Castle, here we come!
