Father’s Day with Fox for Dad’s out of this world

Sometimes there is nothing better than putting your feet up and enjoying a good old movie, of course whenever you are flicking through the channels there is either too much choice or nothing on at all.

I always find that when we actually have the time to watch something together that there’s nothing available – these are the times to reach for the trusted DVD’s/Blue-Rays

How about having a movie marathon with your OH or your Dad this Father’s Day.

Here’s a selection of Sci-Fi movies which everyone will love – Movie’s for Dad’s out of this world!
