Scribbles About Movies: My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2

I knew before I saw this I would like it... and I know it got bad reviews and its not going to win any academy awards or anything... but I've had a kind of rough week, and this made me smile, laugh and even tear up a little for about an hour and thats all that matters right? I don't think I've ever left a movie with so many people with smiles on their faces and in a cheerful mood as this movie... and that's what you have to think about while seeing a movie.

So some of why I like this movie so much is the same as why I didn't like fuller house. I loved the first movie, and I loved the familiarity of the old characters and the additional characters too. A lot of the jokes were the same as the first movie... but they were different enough to kind of have a new spin. It was fresh and nice and funny. I liked the beginning where Gus was picking everyone up and they all lived next door in some greek-themed house. It was funny.

It wasn't as good as the first movie really, but it was a lot funnier. I thought there were non stop laughs. All the critics I've heard saying that it was all cheap laughs... I didn't really think so. I thought everything was worthy of a lol. I laughed out loud a lot throughout the movie. I thought it was all relatable and funny. The college fair was funny... I liked that Aunt Voula was trying to get her step count up. I thought the Alexander the great thing was funny and that all the kids sounded exactly like Gus.... it was just really funny.

And I liked the montage at the end... I don't want to go too much into it, but it showed Toula's Parents together, Toula and Ian together and Paris (Toula and Ian's daughter) with her prom date... and that was really sweet and I loved it. Particularly the Toula and Ian part I thought was nice... it was sweet. And then at the end there were more sweet moments and it was just a fun movie!

So if you're looking for something fun to see, and you liked My Big Fat Greek Wedding, and maybe you have a crazy family... you'll love MBFGW2! I loved it, I think Nia Vardalos did a great job... and I'm a fan. I thought it was cool!

Byeeee!

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

Disney Store Closing Haul

So if you read my post from yesterday- you know that I love The Disney Store, but it is unfortunately closing. I did pick up some things from the store that I thought I'd share with you guys! I did get a couple of t shirts. One is a Star Wars shirt, which is technically a men's shirt but I thought it looked really cool and I don't like that Disney doesn't carry the same things for men and for women. For the most part they look unisex to me and a lot of their men's stuff has characters I like better. Like the star wars shirt for women was grey with pink lettering and had no pictures, but the mens shirt had a really cool metallic silver logo on black clothing with pictures of all the new characters and Luke inside of the letters... much cooler! So I got that! The other shirt I got is really funny and it has Sleeping Beauty on it and it says "I Woke Up Like This." Which I really liked! Super cute and funny and my niece likes it when I wear shirts with c

Scribbles About Life: 3.10.16

Soooo... I don't really want to post about my day... but I don't really want to post anything else either. I started writing something about female characters in movies and TV... but I just didn't like what I was writing and... idk... I was a blog writing machine this week and now I feel defeated. I wrote a ton on Monday and Tuesday and now I just don't feel like doing a post today... but I want to write still... So I'll talk about things that I guess are on my mind lately... Idk. So I got this Revlon Ultra HD Matte Lipcolor... and for some reason... I'm addicted to the way that it smells. Idk why, it smells like cherry medicine... but I also sort of like it. Its more cherry than medicine... and I can't smell it on my lips... but Idk. I keep smelling it in the tube. I got some cute stuff from American Eagle yesterday too! I got a dress and a romper... I do not own any Rompers... except this one... but it looked good on me and it didn't make me look f
