do u have kids/family/friends these ages, girl 15 boys 10, 12 can u help me re xmas

i am wanting to do movie hampers for my brother, neice and nephew but im unsure what dvds to get fro them. i have seen a couple but wanting to know if ur kids/family would apprieciate them at this age?

i have seen some triple dvd sets that they sell in argos £15 bogof so really £7.50 each. the ones i thought might b ideal are

niece 15 - bring it on (the 2nd one), not another teen movie, cant remmeber the name of the last 1 but along these lines

nephew 12, brother 10 - hulk, spiderman3 and again cant remember the 3rd, but think it was another superhero/action movie

do you think these are in the right ages groups for these films?

if i decide to get these i will probaly add another couple of single dvds to each hamper as i usually spend £25ish on each of them. but will get cheepys from hmv
thanks in advance to anyone who answers x

    as regards the 15 yearold I'd wait until nearer the time and see what's newly released.

    i've got a 15 yearold daughter and I know she'll want the 6th Harry Potter on DVD...

    I think the superhero ones sound about right, my OH's son is 9, coming up 10 and he loves comic book characters and superheroes. Can you not ask their parents what kind of films they like?
    D'you know, in 900 years of space and time, I've never met anyone who wasn't important
    The Doctor
    Taste The Rainbow :heartsmil
  • I've got a ten year old son (11 in 12 days as he keeps reminding me) and he still likes superhero type films, and the simpsons and family guy (which i don't find entirely appropriate but some of the box sets are pg or 12) he also likes football type dvds - he also likes high school musical but wouldnt tell his mate that lol!

    I have a 14 year old DD and she likes Chick Flicks. Tesco do sets of 3 girlie films for about £7.

    Also look at these for the girl. Can't help with boys sorry.
