Chart Chat: 1.28.16

Alright exciting Chart Chat this week!

Movies 

5) Allegiant- The Divergent Series last hurrah. I haven't read Divergent yet... need to do that. Then I'll see the movies now that they are all done. I'm not one to really keep up too much with these movies... but I like Shayleene Woodly and I loves me some Ansel Elgort... so yeah. I'll see this in 3 years or something maybe. Lol.

4) Miracles From Heaven- This is one of those movies that you don't hear a lot about but they come out around Easter and they get pretty high on the charts quickly because churches go to see them as a group... kind of a gimmick for ticket sales... but this movie actually looked good to me. Idk. I like Jennifer Garner and I'll watch her in almost anything, so I'd want to see this.

3) My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2- I know this got horrible reviews but I can't wait to see this... people really don't understand My Big Fat Greek Wedding and I think they are getting this one either. I haven't seen it yet... I know my review is going to be biased because I love Nia Vardalos. She is so real and so genuinely nice. She's one of the nicest people on all of her social media, and she really does things that help people. I love her book Instant Mom, I don't think she'll write a movie about that... but that would make a great movie... and she genuinely is best friends with her co-star John Corbett so their closeness in the movie is very real because Nia Vardalos is such a friendly person and you really want to be a part of her family.

2) Zootopia- I still want to see this movie! I feel old, but my cousin said I should see it and she's only a year younger than me... so I guess I'm not too old. Lol. I'm happy this movie is doing so well. I feel like people are seeing movies multiple times this year because this and deadpool are so successful and were successful for so many weeks in a row.

1) Batman vs. Superman- Although no critics seemed to like this movie, its doing very well at the box office. Crushing a lot of records. I was really for Ben Affleck as Batman... I thought there was going to be a Benaissance, but then he allegedly cheated on Jennifer Garner and now I don't think that. What I've heard of this movie... you can see batman's mole, beard, dimple, cleft in his mask... so its quite obvious that Batman is Bruce Wayne... so I don't think I'm going to see this movie. I'm going to wait for Nerd Therapy on youtube to do a review... they're this adorable and really nice nerdy couple and they love DC and Batman... so if they don't like this you know its bad... lol. But yeah. This might be fun... idk. I'm probably not going to watch it at all if Nerd Therapy doesn't like it.

I don't think I'm going to do music this week cause I think I've talked a lot about the movie charts and that's really what I care about... so I think I'll just do movies in these from now on... yeah. Makes more sense for me to do that.

Byeee!

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...

Throwback Thursday: Crazy Ex Girlfriend Season 1

One of my favorite shows is the very underrated Crazy Ex Girlfriend... and when I say underrated I mean the ratings are bad... I'm pretty sure there is a lot of critical hype that is very real and worthy of that sort of hype... I honestly didn't watch it live at all this year until the finale... it was all in my DVR... I had lost a little bit of interest to be honest after the first episode... but I bingewatched it all in one day pretty much and it was great... but that's season 2... let's go back to Season 1. If you're only familiar with Season 2... Season 1 isn't quite as dark. It's definitely more silly than Season 2. It isn't like the darkness and the drama isn't there, it just isn't quite as dark. I have a feeling the show is getting progressively darker, and the Season 2 finale was definitely the darkest so far. The show is meant to be a different spin on a Rom-Com. The girl moves across the country for a guy that has a girlfriend alrea...
