Another long weekend is coming and if you’re like me and forgot about it until the last minute and then sadly realized that you cannot book a camp site the week before a long weekend, well, don’t feel bad. Instead you can feel happy that you still have a chance to escape into the wonderful world of cinema! Sometimes all you really need to do is to buy a pizza, lock the door, close the blinds and fondle the remote.
Here are my top 7 long weekend movie marathons (in no particular order):
Bond
Now if you REALLY don’t want to go outside at all but would rather sit with a pizza and a couple of bags of chips then the Bond movies are just what you need. Action, girls, villains and sometimes some well placed humour. Bond is a stay inside and let the world slip past you kind of choice. Everyone should do it once.

Back to the Future
Hover skateboards, Chuck Berry covers, Elijah Wood playing Duck Hunt in the background when he is a tiny boy…Yes! These movies are just what you need. Really though, who doesn’t wish that Back to the Future could really happen to them? This is about as cool as sci-fi can get and a definite good waste of your precious long weekend.
