But we also wholeheartedly believe that everybody needs to be taking time out to just reeeeeeelax and enjoy the season. So make a cup of hot cocoa, find your warmest blankets and snuggle up with these 10 shows and movies, ready for immediate streaming. (Just make sure you have time to buy us a present to thank us for this list.)

MODERN CLASSICS
5. Apocalypse Now on Hulu: This 1979 adaptation of the lit classic Heart of Darkness starred Marlon Brando and Martin Sheen. It won two Oscars when it came out and remains a classic piece of war cinema. (Photo via Zoetrope Studios)
6. Reservoir Dogs on Hulu: This was Quentin Tarantino’s first film and it boldly announced his arrival on the scene in 1992. It’s about a gang of jewelry thieves who try to uncover which among them is acting as a police informant. Just watch it for the killer soundtrack, if nothing else. (Photo via Live Entertainment)

SEQUELS SEQUELS

10. Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2 on HBO: We will argue up and down that the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants sequel was even better than the original. Carmen is working on a play backstage, Lena takes a drawing course, Bridget goes on an archeological dig and Tibby is just trying to sort out everything. (Photo via Alcon Entertainment)
