Posted by Team Boxwish on 01 December 2008 at 11.15AM

Morning Boxwishers and a cheeky pinch and a punch for the first of the month. It’s now December and there remains just a few weeks left to do your Christmas shopping. Yes, it’s a headache, but never fear as Boxwish gallantly leaps to your aid with our gift guides. Last week we brought you our guide to buying for a man, and later this week we’re unleashing some bargainous beauties for less than £10! Can’t say better than that. But if you’re looking for goodies in the form of tasty new DVDs you’re in luck as we rundown the pick of today’s home entertainment options.

If you see… Will Smith star as John Hancock, a drunken, out-of-control superhero whose public image is cleaned up by a helpful PR guru in the action blockbuster, Hancock.

Why Not Become a kickass crime fighter like Hancock by creating your own comic book at the film’s official DVD site. Add some superhero style to your wardrobe with Hancock’s Dior Mist sunglasses or alternatively opt for his smarter suited and booted look. Or check out our rundown of the top ten best drunk moments in movies.

If you see… Brendan Fraser return as intrepid adventurer Rick O’ Connell to battle another undead foe – this time in China in the third in the franchise, The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor.

Why Not Grab this box-set of all three Mummy films and treat yourself to a mummy movie marathon. Get the soundtrack by Randy Edelman, a combination of Chinese, middle eastern and traditional British folk music. Or read up on the movie’s Asian locations here.

If you see… Billy Bob Thornton create comic chaos in the Blu-Ray release of festive favourite Bad Santa.

Why Not Put Santa back together with a jigsaw puzzle game courtesy of the film’s official website. Bad or not become the big-bellied gift-giver with this fantastic Santa Claus fancy dress costume. Or take a leaf out of ‘The Kid’s’ book and whittle a gift for someone this Christmas with this 12 piece wood carving set.
