Oh thats good!

hooray!!! thats excellent news!

Wow that is so awsome! Go PS!

cool! ;)

I can say I have seen PS more times than the other two. Mainly because my parents always watched at and whenever I went to work(right after OotP came out) it was playing over and over again. It's a great movie, but I did get some burnout watching it so many times.

Does anyone else find it upsetting that one third of the UK watched TV on Christmas day?

Yayness!!! Go Potter!! I watched it with my Nan.... and she taped it as well actually!

Greatness! Thats awesome!

yay! Thats wonderful!

yay! awsome!

not really, its not like you can go anywhere other than parties or to see family, and if your with family they're probably bound to be watching PS anyways, i know my dad was. to be honest i dont really feel like a walk on the beach on xmas day

cool-I watched it over Christmas too:pea:

goodness that's a lot of people!

I luv that movie! but its not really a Christmas movie...

kool!!

cool!

No because by 6pm most of the festivities have wound down and people are either tired, drunk or both. LOL There's not much else to do of an evening at Christmas and don't suggest church because I went twice and watched PS.

I don't think families sat through it all, with mine it was just on the telly so some watched a few minutes but most of the time we were eating and talking and being 'together'.

That´s fantastic news...

I can see your point... it's just that my family aren't much of a TV family at all. I suppose that in moderation, television at Christmas is OK, but what I find upsetting is when a family have their Christmas dinner, open the presents and sit down and watch TV solidly.

^ Yeah I know what you mean. I think most people just watch it after the exhausting lunch. I know we do although mainly we play new board games and watch new DVD's and stuff.

Well, we do the board game stuff... but just not TV. This is a bit hypocritical of me, because I don't go to church at Christmas. Since my family all have very different beliefs, (but we all believe there is a God), we usually try and keep the spirit of Christmas by togetherness; and I think as long as that spirit is there, that's fine. I'm just against all the commercialism, shops getting all the stuff in September and all that.

I watched it here in the US during christmas too!

That's really cool!
