Modern Family has been the pinnacle of family sitcoms for the best part of a decade and in 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic, the show aired its eleventh, and final season.

The final season of Modern Family is fantastic, with the funniest family, saying goodbye one final time. The show packs a comedic and emotional punch, that is satisfying but also immensely entertaining. If you’re going to pick up any season of the show for a Christmas present, make it Season 11 on DVD.

One of the biggest films of 2022 has been Australian filmmaker Baz Lurhman’s Elvis biopic, aptly titled ‘Elvis’. One of the highlights of the film, was its amazing soundtrack.

Top Gun: Maverick DVD/Blu-Ray/4K UHD –
If you had told me that ‘Top Gun: Maverick’ would be the highest-grossing film of 2022, I wouldn’t have believed you, but here we are in December of 2022, and ‘Top: Gun Maverick’ is still reigning supreme as box office king. It’s been 36 years since Tony Scott’s original ‘Top Gun’ film, and it feels like absolutely no time has passed. We jump back into Maverick’s world, with a new group of hotshot recruits, and a new threat. Rooster, played by Miles Teller is the latest recruit to challenge for the spot of top dog, having a turbulent history with Tom Cruise’s Maverick, as Rooster is the son of Maverick’s late wingman, ‘Goose’. The film is filled with some of the best action set-pieces ever put to film, with the breathtaking visuals transporting audiences to the cockpit along with these characters. I was blown away by just how much I enjoyed this film. This is a must-watch even if you weren’t the biggest fan of the original. This is the perfect stocking stuffer this Christmas!

The Black Phone Collector’s Edition – DVD/Blu-Ray –
Director Scott Derickson’s 2022 film ‘The Black Phone’ based on Stephen King’s son, Joe Hill’s novel of the same name, is without a doubt the best horror film of 2022. The best horror films are always those that manage to evoke other emotions out of you as well, and ‘The Black Phone’ does this very well. The film does a great job of creating amazing characters, with the child performers here by relative newcomers to film, ‘Mason Thames’ as Finney and ‘Madeleine McGraw’ as Gwen giving truly amazing performances. Ethan Hawke’s scene-stealing turn as ‘The Grabber’ is also worth mentioning, as his iconic look will be a horror staple for years to come. This film is raw and so well-executed. A must-watch for horror fans and those looking for something a little different. This will make for an interesting Christmas watch.
