The first few days of a long break from classes and work are always the best. They are spent catching up with friends, napping, and relaxing. But once the novelty wears off and you realize you still have two weeks without your best friends, the boredom kicks in. To help you out, here are six classic movie series from over the years you may have forgotten about and should spend your time giving another view. So when you have had enough of playing games or decorating, hide away and catch one of these films on demand or DVD!

1. Harry Potter

Harry Potter is sure to occupy your time with seven classic movies. Follow along with Harry, Ron, and Hermione as they complete their school years and beyond. Since we cannot go to Hogwarts, watching the movies over and over again is the next best thing, right?

2. Toy Story

The three Toy Story films are some of the most beloved family films of all time. Although it began back in 1995, it is known is households all over the world even today. Head back to childhood with Woody, Buzz Lightyear, Jessie, Rex and the rest of the characters.

3. The Hunger Games

Although this series is rather new, it is timeless and I always notice something new and different each time I watch. The Hunger Games series will keep you on the edge of your seat, and you will be wanting to see more.

4. Pirates of the Caribbean

This Walt Disney series came out with a movie recently but has been adored since the early 2000s. Captain Jack Sparrow will take the entire family on countless adventures throughout this series. It will likely inspire everyone to want to take a trip to Disney’s theme park as well.

5. Home Alone

What’s a better way to spend the holidays than catching up on the Home Alone series? Especially Home Alone 2 which is set during the holiday season. Kevin, the main character, is a major troublemaker who will offer everyone a much-needed laugh.

6. Divergent

This trilogy is based on science fiction novels revolving around a futuristic society. It is brilliantly made and very interesting. It is not simply all about science, there is a romantic and action side to it as well!

Overall, there is something from every genre to be watched this holiday season! Once Christmas is over and the holiday films are no longer of interest, I recommend re-watching a series. It may have been your favorite years ago and continue to be today. The holiday break is meant for kicking back and relaxing so get ready for weeks of movies with your best friends and family! Hopefully, this list is a good start.
