We all thought we had spring on it’s way and whilst I’m sure we do, we’re currently getting hit with a couple of those great British Summer days of rain and wind. What better thing to do then grab the duvet, get some chocolate, mooch on the sofa, and hit up some screen time. I’ve been loving rainy days for watching movies and here’s my current top 5 that I think you will all love!
Harry Potter
Oh I will get more specific. Rain makes me feel of slithery so let’s go with the Chamber of Secrets. Nothing beats watching your favourite red head, quirky intelligent girl and of course hazza p himself battle a humongous snake. Also, props to Dumbledore for just being a legend.
The Devil Wears Prada
No, you said it. Who doesn’t want a little Miranda Priestly in their life on a rainy day? I can feel the chill now, and it’s radiating off my screen. Burn.
Big Fish
I love Ewan McGregor. I really do. So what’s a movie day without his delicious face on my screen? Moulin Rouge would make me too sad so I’m going with the awe inspiring story of Big Fish.
Moana
This wouldn’t be a really movie day list without a little Disney now would it? Moana is the super inspiring, kick ass female we all love. Plus it’s nice to sing along to the songs and feel you’re somewhere much warmer.
The Greatest Showman
I haven’t spoke to anyone yet who didn’t like The Greatest Showman. Why not get yourself feeling all optimistic and happy whilst Hugh Jackman and Zac Efron dance on screen (HEEEEEY!)
Are there any films you recommend for a rainy movie day? I’d love to know. Then I can add them to my ever growing collection!
These are great but you HAVE to include The Cat in The Hat (the new one)
