With Thanksgiving approaching; you might be thinking about starting some new family traditions. Watching a Thanksgiving movie is a great way to relax and enjoy family time together. This list of Thanksgiving themed movies will help you choose the best movie to indulge upon this Thanksgiving Day.

A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving
In a Charlie Brown Thanksgiving Charlie finds himself in a predicament as usual; he is supposed to eat Thanksgiving dinner at his Grandma’s but his friend Patty invites herself over to his house for dinner. Charlie ends up attempting to make dinner with his limited cooking skills; but ultimately Charlie and his friends all end up heading to Charlie Brown’s grandma’s to eat. This is a fun film with relatable Thanksgiving themes; balancing different obligations and trying to make everyone happy, and struggling to put together a great meal.

Disney’s Pocahontas
Pocahontas relates to Thanksgiving in a very traditional sense. English soldier John Smith is part of the group of colonists who invade Virginia in the 17th century. John Smith and Pocahontas ultimately fall in love and Smith learns about peace and being thankful from Pocahontas. Since Thanksgiving is said to have originated during this time period as a result of the Native Americans’ kindness toward English colonists; this movie is a very appropriate choice for Thanksgiving.

Planes, Trains and Automobiles
If you are looking for a fun film with a positive Thanksgiving message; Planes, Trains and Automobiles is a must see. An unlikely pair, Neal and Del, end up traveling home together based on some traveling mishaps. The two drive each other crazy on an accident prone and very funny journey. In the end they make it home only for Neal to discover that Del is actually spending the holiday alone. Neal shows a generous Thanksgiving spirit and invites Del to his home to share Thanksgiving with his family.

Home for the Holidays

In the end, in classic Thanksgiving fashion, she sees that they while they have their differences; they actually have her best interest at heart. Her brother had secretly brought along a friend for Claudia to meet and the two end up hitting it off.

Pieces of April
Families are not perfect; and many viewers will be able to relate to the thanksgiving journey April and her dysfunctional family go on.

Moviegoers are experiencing a new way to watch films these days and that is outdoors. The first thing people think of when you say outdoor movies is the old drive-ins. Who doesn’t remember piling into the family station wagon and sound the tires made riding over the gravel as you approached the drive-in. But outdoor movies have evolved. An outdoor movie today consist of friends and family sitting on a blanket in a picturesque location with a warm summer breeze watching movies under the stars. Outdoor movies are popping up on all over the country. A typical outdoor movie event can accommodate 400% or more moviegoes than a standard movie theater.

Movies in 3-D are all the craze these days. Most of us have you seen Fox Studios ‘Avatar’ or Dreamworks ‘How To Train Your Dragon’ in 3-D. But what 3-D is lacking is the physical effects of the presentation. This is where 4-D movies outdoors comes in.

In October of 2009, Southern Outdoor Cinema produced the first ever outdoor 4-D movie event. On a large grassy soccer field in the City of Johns Creek, GA a portable inflatable movie screen was erected to present the movie ICE AGE 3. The park was decorated with winter elements such as skiis, sleds, large snowmen and mittens. But the experience of the event didn’t end there, instead it started miles before moviegoes arrived at the park. High in the sky, floating above the city, were large 3 foot wide snowflakes. Snow in Atlanta in October, how was this possible? Southern Outdoor Cinema used soap formed helium-filled snowflakes that floated as high as a mile and as far out as three miles. Another element added to the event, was the use of snow. At the gate of the event, moviegoes where greeted by snow flurries. Southern Outdoor Cinema went beyond the elements of touch and sight and teased the audiences sense of smell by incorporating a scent of “snow” during the snow seasons. A 4-D movie outdoor is truly an experience moviegoing never experience before.
