For the movie-loving friend with a DVD collection the size of Texas and encyclopedic knowledge of Academy Award winners, here are 12 gifts sure to please...

Gifts for the Movie Lover

Guys and gals alike can appreciate the charm of 007, and this incredible James Bond DVD set will forever be a favorite ($131.99); The ultimate gift for movie-lovers this season? Definitely the Sonia Bravia 3D TV – we've tried it, and it's awesome ($2,199.99); Classic movie posters like this one of Lawrence of Arabia are practically works of art, and look great hung in pairs ($34.99); Apple TV brings hundreds of movies to your home in one place, and can be controlled using your iPhone as a remote ($99); Cozy-up your home theater with this plush Bayside couch from Crate and Barrel ($1,499).

For the friend who is running out of movies to put in his or her Netflix queue, give them 1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die – it'll take at least a week to get through them all (wink!) ($23.10); If you give this behemoth gift basket of old-timey candy to enjoy in front of a good movie, make sure you're there to enjoy some! ($29.99).

While not everyone likes gift cards in principle, now that movies cost a whopping $13 there are few people wouldn't love a gift card to AMC or Regal Cinemas (starting at $5); If your movie-lover friends are also a gourmand, Williams-Sonoma's popcorn sampler comes with chili-lime seasoning, and kettlecorn seasoning – yum! ($27).

Our favorite movie-themed gift this year comes from Alexis, who suggests buying one or more of Sophia Coppola's DVD's (such as Marie Antoinette, the Virgin Suicides or Lost in Translation (starting at $6.99) and a four-pack of Sophia Champagne to enjoy while watching – adorable! ($20 for four).

What will you buy the movie-lover on your list this year?

    I'm really tempted to get the Sophia Coppola gift for myself. Staying in with a stack of good movies and champagne? Yes please!
