Movies to watch with the family on a couch and blanket afternoon this fall
Fall is a perfect time to enjoy watching movies with the family. The days are cooler and shorter, inviting a pleasant afternoon snuggled up on the couch with a blanket and a cup of hot chocolate while it rains and gets cold outside. Especially if we choose movies set in autumn, this wonderful season filled with golden hues and covered in dry leaves.
Today, SaveFamily brings you a series of movie recommendations you can watch with your family this fall.
The most autumnal of all is the third installment, "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban." And to make the marathon even more fun, you can turn it into a Harry Potter party. Everyone can dress in their Hogwarts house colors, decorate the living room, and try the food featured in the films. Who dares to try some Mystery Beans? They come in all flavors (literally).
The Addams Family has had dozens of adaptations over the years, but arguably the most popular and iconic are those from the 1990s. In its first installment in 1991, the Addamses, a gothic and macabre family, risk losing their treasure of gold coins to Tully Alford, a dishonest lawyer who the Addamses are clients and is now in serious financial difficulties.
But you've already seen the '90s versions a million times. This fall, director Tim Burton brings a new Addams Family series to Netflix. This time, it focuses on Wednesday Addams, who is now a teenager and must face high school. But after being expelled, she is placed in an institution for more special children.
Three hundred years ago, three witches were sentenced to death in Salem, but a boy turned them into black cats. In the middle of Halloween, they accidentally returned thanks to Max, who was exploring the ruins of his old house. Their goal is to make their plan of immortality a reality, but if they don't recite the spell before dawn, they will die of extreme old age.
A fun Disney production, perfect for an unforgettable fall afternoon with the family. Plus, its sequel is coming to Disney+ this fall.
The cheerful sisters each have artistic vocations and youthful aspirations. And during their adolescence, they discover love and the importance of family ties. Meanwhile, they become close friends with Laurie, their wealthy neighbor who always supports them in their crazy adventures.
A true classic transformed into a modern ode to femininity, in a nostalgic and melancholic atmosphere very appropriate for autumn.
When Jack Skellington, the Lord of Halloween, discovers Christmas, he is fascinated and decides to improve it. However, his vision of the holiday is completely contrary to the Christmas spirit. His plans include kidnapping Santa Claus and introducing some rather macabre changes. Only his girlfriend Sally is aware of the mistake he's making.
A wonderful animated story, a must-see before the Christmas season arrives.
In a nutshell, "The Lord of the Rings" tells the story of Frodo Baggins, a young hobbit with a simple, quiet life who, overnight, is tasked with an important mission that will determine the fate of all of Middle-earth. His uncle Bilbo had possessed the One Ring, Sauron's most lethal weapon, for years. But it turns out the Dark Lord has returned and desires the ring to seize power over all of Middle-earth. Frodo must travel to Mordor with his friend Sam to destroy the One Ring with the same fire it was forged from. And thus save the Free Peoples of Middle-earth.
This film tells the story of an artificially created man named Edward, who has scissors instead of hands. Edward is adopted by a middle-class family living in an idyllic residential neighborhood and falls in love with their daughter, Kim.
These are some of the movies you can enjoy together on the couch this fall. Watching movies or series inspired by this season is a great way to get excited for the arrival of the season. Plus, these family evenings help strengthen the bonds.
