My Sky + … Movies in December

Blistering bockbusters! The Adventures of Tintin is among the HD premieres bound for Sky Movies in December.

Surprisingly, it will screen on December 16 rather than Christmas Day, for which the channel is reserving The Muppets.

Other highlights include Tinker Tailor Solider Spy, The Descendants, Contagion, Puss in Boots, and two movies that undeservedly went direct to discs here: the surprisingly good Nicolas Cage-Nicole Kidman thriller, Trespass, and the mixed martial arts spin on The Fighter, Warrior.

Scheduled for Sky Movies Greats are two Mel Gibson classics, Mad Max and Braveheart, and the lesser Lethal Weapon 3, along with Wall Street, Rain Man and Million Dollar Baby.
