Chart Chat! 1/18/16

Here I'm going to talk about the movies I didn't see and the songs I don't like. Everyone else seems to have seen them and liked them... so yeah.

Movies 
5) Daddy's Home- I think this movie looks really cute! My grandfather actually saw it this weekend and said it was really funny. I know its not getting great reviews... but come on. It's not like Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg are looking for an Oscar here.

4) 13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Beinghazi- Interesting... Haven't heard about this one. Ohhh no I have, this is the new Michael Bay movie that John Krasinski is in. I love John Krasinski... I thought this was a documentary or something and I would have watched it then... but I don't think I'll watch it. I'm not into super actiony movies. Pretty low on the charts for a Michael Bay movie... but I guess its up against Star Wars and coming out when people are interested in seeing the Oscar movies.

3) Star Wars: The Force Awakens- Wow. Surprisingly #3 here! I still have not seen this movie. Everyone was saying this was going to lose its streak from being #1 because of Ride Along 2... but I thought this might pull ahead or at least be at #2... but I guess people really wanted to see Dicaprio in The Revenant. I'm still going to see this, hopefully in theaters... lol. Idk if I'll do a scribbles about movies on it right away... It might be something I save until May to publish since I'll be the last person to see it anyway... but we'll see. Lol.

2) The Revenant- Its funny because Sandy Kenyon, who does the movie reviews for ABC in the tri-state area said Dicaprio had a great performance, but the movie was  so long and painful to watch. It came out in select theaters on Christmas and he couldn't think of a worse way to spend Christmas than seeing that movie. Lol. Not because it was bad, but it was horrible to watch. I think Tom Hardy is in it... I likes me some Tom Hardy... so I'd consider half watching maybe half of this movie... but I agree it seems hard to watch, and I probably just won't. Lol. It's probably amazing and I'm sure it'll win... but yeah.

1) Ride Along 2- And #1 not an Oscar Contender, not a high profile action movie... well sort of I guess... but Ride Along 2! I love Kevin Hart... I haven't seen Ride Along yet all the way through... but its a good mix of Action and Comedy... from what I saw at least. It isn't bad. I'll probably watch this eventually too.

Itunes 
Albums 
So I'm doing top Albums because that's more relevant to me than the top songs. Lol.

5) Traveller by Chris Stapleton- Don't know who this person is... he sounds like a country singer... idk. Lol. Unless he's on the radio and he's amazing... I probably won't hear him. He may be amazing. Idk. I could be obsessed with him in a week. But right now I'm good.

4) Purpose by Justin Bieber- I'm a little embarrassed... but I think I want this CD in my life. I love all of JBs songs on the radio... and I feel like I need them in my life. I have no music on my phone right now... but yeah.

3) Best of Bowie by David Bowie- David Bowie is my favorite singer and this album is really great. My favorite song (soul love) is not on this... but if you're into bowie or you want to get into bowie, start with this, then get Ziggy Stardust. Those are pretty much the only albums I have of his... but they're amazing.

2) 25 by Adele- Adele is a great singer. Probably one of the most talented singers available... and I just don't like her very much. Its nothing personal. They just played her all the time everywhere for years, especially when I was working in retail... and they played the Glee version at my store also so it was especially annoying.

1) Death of a Bachelor by Panic at The Disco- I love Panic At The Disco. I don't have this yet and I will probably get it and love it. I haven't heard the songs yet. Panic at the disco is one of my favorite bands though... so this will be a thing that I own. Lol. I love them. I'm happy they're #1.

And going further down the charts there is a ton of Bowie. Its almost every other album... so thats good. I'm glad people are liking David Bowie as much as I do!

Byeeee!

Scribbles about TV: Jane The Virgin Review!

This I think is a surprise hit, so of corse I needed to watch it for myself to see! It's been getting a lot of critical buzz because it has been reviewed as "one of the best pilots of the season" and I also have been hearing a few critics saying that they don't think it will last because the word "virgin" is in the title... which is stupid. There is nothing wrong with being a virgin and if a show is good, its good and people should watch it... plus this did bring pretty high ratings for The CW so the critics that said that can suck it! Lol. Overall I really liked this show. One thing thats been bothering me a lot about the new Fall shows is that the characters aren't interesting enough. Especially the female characters. I thought that this showed a lot of really strong female characters that were interesting. This had a pretty big cast with A LOT of stuff going on for a pilot and most of the characters were female. That is a powerful thing to see on TV...

Top 10 Dating Tips/ Suggestions

So I've been in a relationship for about 2 and a half years... but before that I was single... for a very long time. And I was on dating apps for about a year or so before that... so here's what I learned from those apps. If you want more specific relationship advice I have from being in a relationship... that one might be a little harder but I guess I could do a blog on that too? Idk... I'm not an expert but I think I have some good tips.  Find an App That Works For You  I feel like not all apps work for everyone. I started on Bumble- and I like the app. I love the idea of girls taking the first move- but... I HATE making the first move apparently. So I would just match with a bunch of guys... and never really knew what to talk about. Plus I like having A LOT of info in my bio and Bumble just doesn't give enough space for me. I only went out with 1 guy from Bumble I think and it was bad.  So after that I tried Coffee Meets Bagel... which is terrible. Maybe depending on...

Scribbles About TV: Jane The Virgin Finale Review (SPOILERS)

So.... Can we talk about all the twists because there were a lot! I didn't even see all of them coming! Alrighty we start out in typical Jane The Virgin Mode with Jane's choice between Raphael and Michael... I'd be okay with either but I think I'm team Michael. Jane has a weird moment with Raphael and thinks she's better off without him and just having him be the father of her child. She's also starting to have some feelings for Michael again. Then she almost has the baby on the bus and some woman helps her and gets the bus driver to take her to the hospital. Rogellio and Xo are in Vegas and they get drunk and can't remember what happens, but they make it just in time to see Jane deliver a baby boy. I knew it would be a boy! Lets pause on that a little and go to Michael and his ex partner/friend with benefits who comes back says she has a lead on Sin Rostro, gives him an address where the plastic surgeon is and by the time Michael gets there, he's de...
