The 100 Films Advent Calendar 2013

It’s that time of year again, dearest readers. Where does it go, eh? It feels like mere weeks since I was churning out reviews daily for my last advent calendar.

Yes, at the risk of starting some kind of tradition, it’s back — 25 days of chocolatey goodness. Except without the chocolate. And possibly without the goodness. I can guarantee some “y”s though. Or maybe “why?!”s.

I don’t know if last year’s ‘calendar’ was a big hit with readers or anything, but it was a big hit with me: my review backlog was considerably less engorged by the end. It really needs deflating once again this year, so that’s grand. And if you want an idea about some of the reviews that might be materialising over the next few weeks, do have a look.

In case it’s not obvious, then: I’ll present a shiny new review every day up until Christmas, and then one on the day itself too, in case you fancy avoiding the festive frivolities. Or you could just read it on Boxing Day. Or indeed any other day after that. I don’t have anything as momentous as last year’s Skyfall epic planned for the big day, but you never know, there’s still time.

Below, you can once again see a big pile of unopened links. If you so desire, you can check this post regularly over the next three-and-a-half weeks as those generic Christmassy images turn into exciting images that are all clickable. Or you can just see the new reviews appear on the front page. Or in your email inbox (if you already follow this blog with a WordPress account, you can change email notification settings here). Or follow me on Twitter. Always worthwhile.

And so without further ado, the festivities begin… in the morning…
