My Sky + … Movies in December

T’is the season for fantasy movies to reign on Sky’s movies channels.

Next month will see The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, Skyline, The Day After Tomorrow, Dr Seuss: How the Grinch Stole Christmas, The Mummy, The Day After Tomorrow, King Arthur, Labyrinth, The Scorpion King and The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King all rolled out in HD.

Return of the King will be Sky Movies Greats’ Christmas Day highlight, although it won’t mark the movie’s HD premiere: all of the trilogy first aired in HD on the channel as a Christmas Day marathon two years ago.

Sky Movies’ Christmas Day premiere, Little Fockers, spearheads a comedy slate that stands out for its quantity rather than quality: The Green Hornet, Trailer Park Boys 2: Countdown to Liquor Day, Dumb & Dumber, 101 Dalmatians, Bridget Jones’ Diary, Beauty Shop and Alfie.
