Shan Reviews Movie Trailers

Sooo I'm sick right now and I want to watch movie trailers... soooo... thats what is going to happen right now.

1) The Fault in Our Stars- This is based on a book that I'm not sure I wanted to read... but I watched the trailer and it looks cute. I'm not that into love stories, and this one looks super sad. I'm sure the book is great and that the movie will be great as well. It doesn't look like a sappy-overly tragic love story. It actually looks like a love story that happens to have tragedy in it. I feel like Nicholas Sparks and romance movies like Remember Me exploit tragic events in order to create feels for people that really aren't there. This doesn't look like that. I think I may want to ease my way into John Green before reading this though, he looks like he has a lot of great books that I'd like to read other than this.

2) The Maze Runner- This one I actually did read and I'm super excited about. Out of all the dystopian societies, this one looks the most fun and adventurous. This looks really good. It's almost exactly how I pictured this when I was reading the book. The only thing different is that I pictured Theresa as a pretty girl with blonde curly hair and they got a pretty brunette with curly hair. I don't know that they ever described Theresa as blonde with curly hair, but that's how I pictured Anabeth in Percy Jackson, so that's how I picture girls that are the only girl among a bunch of boys.

This looks good. I definitely want to see this!

3) Jupiter Ascending- I have no clue what this movie is about. I still don't know after watching the trailer. Channing Tatum and Mila Kunis are sooo pretty though that I sort of want to see it... but it also looks like it could be as bad as Battlefield Earth. Maybe not though.... Meh I'll netflix it if its on netflix. If not, it isn't meant to be.

4) Cavemen- I thought this movie might be something good... but this has been done sooooo many times before that I'm sick of it! A guy has a female best friend... and then realizes wait... I have a female best friend, I should be with her right? But then his male best friend gets together with her and its all sad... and the name cavemen just makes it all that much worse. I'm sick of these overly male comedies that are like this. Ick. I'll pass.

5) Mom's Night Out- I chose to watch this movie because I wanted to review something that I actually would want to see... but the trailer for this looks just as bad as cavemen! Basically every chick movie stereotype is in this movie and it does not work one bit! This has also been done before... AND HOW MANY MOVIES ARE THERE WERE SOMEONE LOSES ONE OF THEIR KIDS/BABIES! Seriously Hollywood, I don't have a baby and I don't want one any time in the near future... but it can't be that goddamn hard to keep track of your damn kid! We don't need 50 COMEDIES about missing children. I'd like to think parents are just slightly better than that.

Weekly Wrap Up 7.30.17

Sunday 7.23.17  Sunday was a really good day… it was kind of a lazy day for me… but my dad pretty much finished most of the painting in my room… he ran out of paint before he could totally finish it up… so he’ll finish that up soon… my mom is going to the paint store tomorrow… so hopefully he can finish it up then.  He also made some really fantastic barbecue pork… it was going to be pulled pork… but the pulling process didn’t really work… I kind of prefer the texture of it sliced instead of pulled…. idk. I like pulled pork… but this sliced pork was really delicious and flavorful and good.  We went for Starbucks and Ice Cream too… which was fun. Starbucks sends a lot of bonus stars offers after 2… so even though we go in the morning- we have to go after 2 because then we’ll get bonus stars, which my dad uses in New York because it’s a little more expensive there.  And then the ice cream… nutella ice cream with crushed oreos and marshmallow…it was del...

Scribbles About Food: Gloria Jeans Pistachio Chiller (kinda like a frap)

So since I'm doing all of the Frappuccino reviews, I thought I would give a shout out to a different coffee chain that I like... maybe even more than Starbucks! But I hardly ever go to it because A) People get your orders wrong there a lot B) I don't really live near one! So Gloria Jeans has some amazing drinks called Chillers that are like Frappuccinos, but they have always had a ton of really good and really interesting flavors. One of my favorite Seasonal ones is the Pistachio Chiller. They had this around this time last year also and its a really good unique flavor. Basically it tastes like pistachio ice cream... but in a frozen coffee form. Its pretty cool! And Pistachio is a pretty underrated flavor in my opinion. I don't get it enough, but I always love Pistachio and Almond flavored desserts and this in particular is really flavorful and just a really good chiller. I don't think there is anything at starbucks that compares to it really, its really different...

It List: May 2017

Can't believe it's the last day of May... this was a great time for TV... so let's get right into it! 1) Master of None- The second season of this show was really really great! I liked the first season... but this season was just wayyy better to me for some reason... I loved that they had episodes about Italy and about New York... I think they did a really great job and I was so impressed with it... I'll have to watch the first season over again and do a Throwback Thursday on that sometime soon... but until then... season 2 was great! 2) Girl Boss- I finally got around to watching Girl Boss this month too... and I loved that show! At first I wasn't sure if I was going to like it or not... then I just couldn't stop watching it and I finished it in 2 days... which I guess is when I finished all the Netflix shows I'm talking about... but still. Girlboss was definitely really good... and I feel like I could watch this one over and over again too. 3) Unbrea...
