Movie Night Essentials

If you are anything like me, you'll have a list as long as your arm of films that you love the look of and need to get round to watching. I'll admit, I'm a much bigger fan of TV shows so rarely find the time to watch films. However, after creating a list of films and starting to do Friday night film nights, I've gathered a few movie night essentials that you've got to have within arms reach.

01: I am such a snacker. If you asked me what my favourite thing to snack on was, it'd definitely be crisps. Our favourites are Doritos and sour cream dip or Pringles. So long as I've got one or the other to snack on whilst watching, I'll be happy. 02: Bit of an obvious one, but you are going to need a DVD or copy of whatever it is you are going to watch. Whether you are streaming it, playing it or watching it on TV, you don't want anything to come between you and your movie night. Make sure you've also got the remote nearby, perfect for changing the volume depending on the scene! 03: No matter how warm it is, I love having a cosy blanket. There is nothing better than curling up on the sofa with a cosy blanket. My favourite one at the moment is one from Next, but I'm also currently knitting two so that no matter whether its a 2 person movie night or 10 person movie night, we are sure to have blankets for everyone. 04: You are going to need something to wash down all of those snacks. Sometimes for me, this is tea, but sometimes, it is something cool and fizzy. We normally get something like Tango as we always try and recreate those yummy Tango Ice Blasts from the cinema, but they never turn out as good. Guess that gives me an excuse to go to the cinema more often! 05: It isn't often that I am in the mood for something sweet but occasionally I am, so it is always good to have something in. Whether you love sweets, chocolates or ice cream, you'll definitely want to have something in. What could be worse than having sweet cravings half way through your movie night and having nothing sweet in the house?
