Come get some.

It’s Wednesday. It’s freezing. It’s dark.

And for the second day in a row, there are no Christmas movies on the list…

Ah well, maybe it’s a bit early.

Here’s what we’re dealing with anyway:

The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2 – Film 4 – 6.25pm

The final film from the fantastic sci-fi adventure series, though you really shouldn’t watch unless you’ve seen the rest of them, or at least one of them.

Rocky – TCM – 9pm

The film that launched one of the greatest sporting sagas of all time, that is still being enjoyed over 40 years later.

An all-time classic.

A Million Ways to Die in the West – Comedy Central – 9pm 

Quite a funny (if not a bit forgettable) movie starring Seth McFarlane, Charlize Theron and Liam Neeson. It’s a bit mad, but has a decent laugh or two.

The Bourne Legacy – ITV 4 – 10pm 

The fourth instalment in the series of films adapted from the Jason Bourne novels, this time starring Jeremy Renner, Rachel Weisz and Edward Norton. Might be up your alley if you’re looking for an action-packed Wednesday night.

Taken 3 – Film 4 – 11.30pm

A very particular set of skills, but for a third time.

Mistress America – Channel 4 – 00.35am

A quirky comedy starring two very talented actresses in Lola Kirke and Greta Gerwig. Quite a good movie, if you can brave the late start time…

LISTEN: You Must Be Jokin’ with Aideen McQueen – Faith healers, Coolock craic and Gigging as Gaeilge
