Movie Themed Gift Basket

Have you ever been around someone who can watch a movie and then dissect it afterwards? They must have been a movie critic in another life. People who love movies love them for the actors, the direction, cinematography, and the catchy lines. Their tastes run the gamut from chick flicks to foreign films.

How about a movie gift basket? It will never go out of style and it can be used when you are feeling happy or sad. I’m talking about a movie gift basket. It could be their personal store of movies.

Choose movies that they will enjoy from the genre that they like. Accessorize with posters, action figures, and other movie extras. Decorate the basket with fake movie tickets or photos of their favorite actors. When you can, pick the special edition DVDs that feature director’s comments, cast interviews, and deleted scenes. Those are always popular.

Do they have a computer? For additional movies include a coupon for a few trial of Netflix or Blockbuster Online. At both of these locations they will get to choose from thousands of movie titles both new and classic. With Netflix, there is also the option of viewing movies instantly from a home computer. You don’t even have to wait for it to arrive in the mail.

If the recipient already has an extensive library of movies, give them some things to enjoy while watching them. Movie night wouldn’t be the same without food. Traditional movie food has evolved over the years. You can get way more than popcorn these days.

Popcorn is the traditional food but feel free to add nachos and cheese, big boxes of movie candy, sodas, and whatever else you can think of. For the popcorn, don’t forget the different flavors of toppings available. Nuts are also a good movie food.

Comfort is important when watching a movie. Throw in a few throw pillows so they can sit on the floor and watch the movie. What about a blanket? They can huddle with their sweetie during the chick flicks.

Don’t let the traditional stifle your creativity. Think of funny things and put them in the basket as well.
