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!

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...

Throwback Thursday: The Incredibles

This is one of the more underrated movies in the Pixar Universe... thatI think is actually getting more popular now than it was back when it was released... so that's good. I think it really stands the test of time... but it still isn't one of my favorites. This movie I think is pretty cool because it was the first time Pixar really used humans. When I was little I thought "Toys, Bugs, Monsters, Fish... the next movie will be about dogs!" And I was surprised it was this! I didn't know Pixar could do that! But I guess technically its about heroes and not humans... but then Pixar began to show more humans in their world and The Pixar Theory was started... and yeah. I just kind of want to state my opinion on the Pixar Theory here too cause why not: I don't believe that Pixar set out to create this elaborate world with all the movies connected... but I do still believe it exists in some way shape of form. It all adds up and checks out... so for me... somehow t...

Rereading My Favorite Thing I Wrote In College

Hey guys! I'd say "today's post is a little different" but they're all kind of different to begin with... so this might end up being the same- or at least something that can fit into this blog in a nice way. So I don't want to post the actual thing that I wrote... but in my college Creative Writing Class that I took at 21 we needed to write a fantastical realism short story. And I wrote something that I always liked. The lead character was a smart and sassy woman... the fantastical elements were exciting and unique... and the story as a whole had a cute ending and a good message... and I really liked the way that I took what happened in my real life and changed it into this amazing and fantastical thing. Re-reading it... it was still pretty good. I actually liked the ending a little bit better because it had a nice message about believing in yourself that I kind of just snuck in there without much thought... and there was a cute little love story. I liked ...
