Chart Chat 8.15.16

Here's the Top 10 movies this week! I didn't want to do this every single week... but I'm kind of liking it... so let me know if you want me to keep this up or stop for something else. Most likely if the charts are too similar and nothing really interesting happens, I'll skip a week... but there was something I thought was kind of interesting this week. So yeah!

10) Light's Out- This is its 4th week on the charts and it's made 61.1 million dollars... not to bad! A lot of times horror movies are pretty low budget and do quite well in the box office... so while I thought this wasn't that good the last few weeks... it probably isn't really that bad. And horror movies never advertise a lot... so that's kind of cool. Yes the budget on this movie was $4,900,000 and it made $21,600,000 opening weekend... so that's not bad at all! Horror movie business seems like the business to be in! Lol.

9) 9 Lives- This movie looks terrible... but in a good way. Kevin Spacey is the cat. Totally watching this on TV. Maybe a good drinking game for adults just watching this because it looks bad would be any time they make a cat pun... but yeah. Its made 13.6 Million dollars so far... not great.

8) Florence Foster Jenkins- This movie looks amazing... but also sad. I'm said its so low at the box office this week! Only made 6.6 Million Dollars so far! The Budget was 29 Million... so that isn't great... It'll probably make a lot more money, I don't know if it was released everywhere yet... but yeah.

7) Star Trek Beyond- I've talked about this a lot in previous chart chats... so I'll spare you too many details on this one. It's the 4 weekend on the weekend chart and it hasn't quite made back all the money it cost yet... but it probably hasn't been overseas yet, and action movies always do well there... I'm surprised. Am I getting the movie industry wrong here? Lol.

6) The Secret Life of Pets-This is the 6th week in the top 10 chart for this movie... not bad. I've talked about this a lot too.

5) Bad Moms- I didn't even know this movie came out until I saw it on Chart Chat! It looks really funny... idk if I want to see it that much though.

4) Jason Bourne- I'm surprised this hasn't been doing that well. I know people seem to really like the Bourne movies and were excited Matt Damon was back... but I guess that its not as exciting as some of the more original movies out there... which are at the top 2... Or at least the first in a series like Suicide Squad. But yeah. Maybe people are tired of it. It seems like a specific crowd that likes the Bourne movie.

3) Pete's Dragon- Out of all the disney Live Action movies, this is the one I think I'm most excited for. I really like the original and I think Elliot the dragon in the cartoon is so cute... and I feel like he should still be a cartoon... but anyway... this is probably good and I'm a little surprised it isn't a BFG level hit.

2) Sausage Party- Shocked this is #2 to be honest... I didn't think this would be that big a hit at all! It looks funny but I don't think I want to see it in theaters. I don't know why, I'm not a big fan of the raunchy animated movies... but I'd probably watch this at home just cause it looks so funny and disturbing.

1) Suicide Squad- Again! I've heard good reviews and bad reviews on this... and I think its an "I'll watch it at home" type of movie. I don't really know if I want to see it in theaters because I don't like watching superhero movies in theaters all the time... people are crazy. I don't like seeing movies opening night anymore... and this is no exception really. So not that it'd be a bad movie... but its something I want to see at home. I'll even watch Batman v Superman at home. I've heard mostly bad things about that, but some good... enough good to maybe make me a little interested.And if I watch Suicide Squad... might as well watch Batman v Superman too.

Byeee!

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...

Uhhhh... Where Have I been?

 So it hasn't been that long- but I did mention that I wanted to keep this more of a daily-ish blog than I have in years past... and my last post was the  4th and today was the 11th. Did I give up on my resolutions already?  No/Sort of... sooo basically I was kind of considering the real start of the new year January 5th... I was very busy with work things up until the 4th... the 4th was the big work event that I had to do... and then after that I could focus on whatever I wanted to focus on... and my blogs were going to be the number 1 thing that I focused on for sure... I might miss a few days... but surely I'd do something for this blog right on the 5th after the big work thing was done... so just leading up to that as long as I post something- everything is good right?  Nope- I realized my room design... needed some refreshing. And then one project turned into several projects and then that took a few days... I think I started on doing stuff on Wednesday of last ...

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...
