Throwback Thursday: Big Fat Liar

So I saw this movie was on demand... and I figured I'd just watch it and do a little throwback thursday on it. I've been wanting to watch it because Paul Giamati is like a famous, somewhat serious actor now and Frankie Muniz and Amanda Bynes are kind of crazy people now... so this is fun.

It seems like its a commercial for Universal Studios Hollywood. This is also what I thought the film industry was like as a kid... and a lot of it is probably accurate... but a lot of it is not a very accurate representation. He hadn't made the movie yet but they have a trailer already? Weird.

Tarin Killam from SNL and John Cho from Harold and Kumar are in this also.

There was a funny part where Frankie Muniz drank a bunch of cokes and was acting like a coke addict because the coke machine was free.

And Amanda Bynes has a fabulous sweater on... let me get a picture.

Can we appreciate this fabulousness? 2002 fashion... 

The part where they dye him blue and his hair orange is still really really funny. I don't know if that would work like that in real life... but still...its really funny. Also Sandra Oh was in this movie... Shawn Levy directed it... he directed and produced a lot of stuff and he's still pretty relevant in hollywood so that is actually really cool. The girl that played Monty in this was also on Private Practice... so I was trying to see if there were any connections between this movie and Shonda Rhimes... which it seems like there isn't. 

Sandra Oh was really in a lot before Grey's Anatomy. She had small roles and then they got a little bigger and a little bigger and then Bam! She was on TV! And that doesn't always happen nowadays. 

And overall... the movie was really fun! I loved watching it again, I liked the end a lot... a lot of the jokes were still really funny. Parts were a little boring, and thats when I was writing this... but overall I thought the movie was great! 

And I really like the end end where Marty is a clown... so funny. Justice is served. And they play The Baja Men!!!!!!!! Okay this is a great movie! Glad I watched it again! 

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...

Blogmas Day 12: The 12 Days of Christmas Gift Guide

So I thought it would be fun to do a gift guide that every gift corresponds with the price. So like for the first day of Christmas $1 gift that would be good and then up from there. These would be good stocking stutterers and things I just think are unique. $1- Solar Powered Dancers!  My mom loves getting the little dancing solar powered people. We get most of ours from Dollar tree... other dollar stores have them too, they're super cute and fun for $1. Its good to put near any plants that you have that way you know they're getting sunlight. It's a good gift. $2- Mini Coloring Book!  At 5 Below they had some mini travel sized coloring books for $2. I thought these were pretty cool. I got the Botanical one I believe. Really cute and fun! I would recommend! $3-   Ceramic Truck w/ Christmas Tree  I saw this at the Target Dollar Spot and I thought it was cute and would probably make a great gift. If you know someone who has a truck or likes the sort of "rustic C...

Scribbles about Books: Horns by Joe Hill

I picked this book up not too long ago because after seeing the trailer for the movie and seeing it was based on a book I thought "Hey, that looks good. I should read the book." Then my friend gave me a Barnes and Noble gift card for my birthday and I thought "Hey I wanted to read Horns, I should grab that." And I did, and I had to read it around halloween of corse! So this is my kind of horror story first of all. I love that the universe it takes place in is very realistic and very small-town. If you've noticed in some of my other book reviews... I like mysteries that take place in small towns. And its very believable because the world and the characters are all so real. I think its a good book just for that. The book starts out with this guy Ignatious, or Ig a year after his girlfriend Merrin is murdered. He grows horns from out of his head... for no real reason. And then a few chapters in we find out who really did it and then we find out why and that thi...
