A movie night is a great activity for those chilly winter nights. After a long day of work or school, relax in the comfort of your own home with a yummy treat and a fun flick!
March of the Penguins is always a good choice. What’s better than watching those cute little tuxedoed creatures on vast expanses of ice and snow? National Geographic says, “Experience a journey like no other on the planet—one that spans hundreds of miles across a frozen continent. Braving icy winds, freezing temperatures and starvation, this is the incredible true story of a family's quest to bring new life into the world.”
For something chilling in more ways than one, Misery is perfect for those in search of something thrilling! Stephen King sets several of his novels and stories during winter.Stephen King uses a desolate setting to play on people’s fears of isolation and loneliness. We see this film use winter as a metaphor for the loneliness felt by the main character in the movie. Katy Bates makes the perfect villain in this 1990 film.
Disney’s Frozen brings the land of ice and magic to life! This fun and friendly film makes a wintery wonderland look not only appealing but fun to live in! The film that made “Let it Go” famous is great for all ages on your movie night.
An all time favorite is Elf! We would watch this movie at any age, no matter the time of year. The premise of this movie is basically an Elf from the North Pole transplanted into the hustle and bustle of New York City! This hilarious adventure follows Buddy from Central Park to the Empire State building. Watch Buddy the Elf eat all his favorite food groups (mostly sugar and candy) and even fall in love!
A perfect treat to pair with these movies is this peppermint popcorn from Cooking Classy! We hope you enjoy these classic-cool movies. Catch a movie at your local theater in Puyallup, WA if the movies we picked aren’t quite your taste.Thanks for reading Canyon Park blog!
