5 Must Watch Movies for Easter 2023

How can it almost be Easter?

Where exactly has this year gone?

At the moment, Ash and I are really enjoying re-watching some old TV and film favourites while dreaming of having something like the Viera 4K TV to watch them on. Honestly, you have to see these 4K TVs working. WOW, the difference.

So in the spirit of Easter, I thought I would come up with some Easter (or rabbit) related ideas.

Hop

Ash brought me this as a silly Easter gift a few years ago now.

It is one of those movies I put on when I’m in the mood for something completely over the top and sickly sweet.

It tells the story of EB, the bunny who is next in line to be the Easter Bunny. However, he wants to be anything but the barer of chocolate eggs, so he runs away to Hollywood to live his dream of being a rock and roll drummer.

Springtime with Roo

This film tells the story of all our 100 Acre favourites heading off to Rabbit’s house to celebrate Easter.

However, Rabbit has other ideas.

Rabbit has made up the Spring Cleaning Day celebration and sets our favourite friends up to do a spot of cleaning.

Of course, nothing quite goes to plan, and they are all left trying to remind Rabbit of how fun Easter can be.

Rise of the Guardians

This film isn’t based on Easter (sorry).

However, it does feature the Easter Bunny and all of those other childhood figures we know and love, such as Santa, The Tooth Fairy, and Jack Frost.

In this film, they are fighting the evil Pitch Black, who wants to engulf the world in darkness.

Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit

Ok, so I may be really pushing it here, but it includes lots of rabbits, and I am such a fan of Wallace & Gromit.

They were definitely a big part of my childhood!

This escapade involves lots of rabbits, a huge were-rabbit, and Wallace trying to win the heart of Lady Tottington, for whom they are performing a pest control service. What more could you want? Cheese?

Jesus Christ Superstar

This rock opera musical by Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice is completely sung from start to finish.

It is loosely based on the Gospels’ accounts of the last weeks of Jesus’ life.

However, it also takes on its own ideas about the political and interpersonal struggles between Jesus and Judas. While it won’t be for everyone, it is definitely worth a try for some.

What films will you be watching over Easter this year?
