15 reasons why Star Wars is a perfect family holiday movie

It’s good to watch alone or with people

No matter what Star Wars film you pick to watch this holiday season, we can guarantee that you’ll be transported to a different place every time. See the world (or…universe?) this Christmas with Star Wars as your guide, expand horizons, and spend time with some funny-looking creatures who aren’t your family.

Indeed, maybe you’re spending Christmas in a more solitary fashion this year, and you just want to do things your way. Watching Love Actually for the fifth time might not be conducive to that, so we’ve got some good news for you. You can just watch Star Wars.

Yes, it’s great with a group, but it’s also great to watch alone, with absolutely no one asking why someone did something or who Han Solo is. You can really appreciate the special effects, hear the jokes, and cry about Han and Leia without anyone around to stop you or hinder your enjoyment.

What’s more, there is an network of Star Wars fans at your fingertips if you do fancy a bit of company. It’s one of the very good things about the internet. Just go on any social media network and there you’ll find like-minded folk who just want to enjoy watching Luke Skywalker and his pals get up to hijinks just like you.

The good thing is that you can have just as little or as much company as you’d like. And they probably won’t eat all your cheese or drink all your mulled wine. Perfect, really.
