It’s December. It’s 18 days until Christmas. WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO WITH YOURSELF, HUH? Go Christmas shopping? Wrap presents? Fill the fridge with more food than a Gruffalo could manage? Be generally conventional and inane? No! You’re too good for that! Instead, you’re going to follow the lead of the BFF family and fill your days with 10 of the bestest things to do this winter.

We love films. Well, we love most of them. Some of them are only OK, and some of them we’d like to get our greasy paws on and re-cast and re-direct all together. Here are five of them, because ten would have gotten me over-excited and I’d never be able to settle for my nap otherwise.

And the Coens are directing. Pleased=us.

Everyone loves a villain – more fun to play, watch and steal quotes from than any floppy-haired namby-pamby good guy, and usually prettier to boot. It’s such a shame they always seem to end up getting shot/stabbed/thrown off buildings/drowned/burnt by hot doorknobs (damn you, Kevin McCallister), so we thought we’d round up some of our favourites for a Who’s Who of all the bad guys that really should have won.

We join Harry (Daniel Radcliffe) and the gang in the sixth instalment of J. K Rowling’s seven part story of sorcerers and spells. Lord Voldermort has returned in full glory and both the wizarding world and the muggle world are in turmoil.
