Chart Chat! 11/28/16

Alright... I'm a little surprised at this week's chart chat... but let's just jump into it! I'm also super tired... so I feel like this will be an abridged top 10!

10) The Edge of Seventeen I want to see this... but I'll probably wait till its on TV. It looks good... but there are so many movies out right now and this doesn't seem like one that you need to see in theaters the way I think Fantastic Beasts or even Moana is.

9) Hacksaw Ridge - Sounds good... but too serious compared to the kids movies at the top of my "To See" list. Lol.

8) Almost Christmas- Probably not a bad movie... probably won't see it because again... it looks sad!Just realized I don't need an Again here... I wrote this list backwards... so that's why some of my phrasing doesn't make much sense. Again I'm getting ready for a nap.

7) Bad Santa 2- I never saw the original Bad Santa... I probably should someday but its so sad its not really on the top of my list of movies I really want to watch at Christmas. I feel like a sequel to this is something people are probably skeptical of... but with Kathy Bates as Momma Bad Santa... it sounds a lot better.

6) Trolls- Cute... definitely thought this would have been higher on the box office this weekend... but I guess with Moana, Fanstastic Beasts and Doctor Strange all being family movies, this one kinda falls short on the list of "Ohhh yeah we have to see that." Despite having a good soundtrack and probably a great cast of voices as well.

5) Arrival- Again... I want to see this but its a movie I think you really really need to be paying attention too.

4) Allied- I want to see this movie when its on TV... Sandy Kenyon said that this movie was pretty bad and that the chemistry between the two leads was abysmal... but I can get past bad on screen chemistry for a movie... idk. Maybe its because I watch a lot of TV and when there's bad chemistry on a TV Show (I'm talking to you Sookie and Eric) its a little hard to watch... but if the story in a movie is okay, usually it isn't terrible to at least half watch... and I think this is going to have a good story with it. I don't see how the "is she a spy? Is she not a spy?" Aspect can be all that boring... it sounds a little like Mr. and Mrs. Smith... but better.

3) Doctor Strange- Again... I don't really know what this is about and I'm not super interested... but Benedict Cumberbatch looks pretty hot and People seem to really love this since it is still doing so well!

2) Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them- I think I'm seeing this tomorrow... so I will hopefully have a review on this soon! I'm excited. Apparently it doesn't really feel like Harry Potter until the end. I think Grindelwald and Dumbledore are involved... idk either way it sounds like a really great movie on its own and its pretty cool that there really wasn't a book to go with this. I'm excited for it!

1) Moana- Judging by how excited I am for this movie and how much I love the music of Lin Manuel Miranda and I love the Hawaiin theme and The Rock and the new girl who is voicing the princess... I shouldn't be THAT surprised that this is #1 this week... but I really really thought Fantastic Beasts was going to win it again. It just goes to show you, Disney is smarter than ever now! They have a very charming team with the two leads in this movie and Miranda... plus a new Disney Princess that is Polynesian, which we've never seen before... and it seems like its just as fun for girls as it is boys. A lot about this movie reminded me of Hercules and Mulan. Those movies are kinda just kids movies, not girl movies or boy movies... just plain kids movies with adventure and singing and fun. So yeah! Smart move, Disney!

Scribbles about TV: Jane The Virgin Review!

This I think is a surprise hit, so of corse I needed to watch it for myself to see! It's been getting a lot of critical buzz because it has been reviewed as "one of the best pilots of the season" and I also have been hearing a few critics saying that they don't think it will last because the word "virgin" is in the title... which is stupid. There is nothing wrong with being a virgin and if a show is good, its good and people should watch it... plus this did bring pretty high ratings for The CW so the critics that said that can suck it! Lol. Overall I really liked this show. One thing thats been bothering me a lot about the new Fall shows is that the characters aren't interesting enough. Especially the female characters. I thought that this showed a lot of really strong female characters that were interesting. This had a pretty big cast with A LOT of stuff going on for a pilot and most of the characters were female. That is a powerful thing to see on TV...

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...

Top 10 Dating Tips/ Suggestions

So I've been in a relationship for about 2 and a half years... but before that I was single... for a very long time. And I was on dating apps for about a year or so before that... so here's what I learned from those apps. If you want more specific relationship advice I have from being in a relationship... that one might be a little harder but I guess I could do a blog on that too? Idk... I'm not an expert but I think I have some good tips.  Find an App That Works For You  I feel like not all apps work for everyone. I started on Bumble- and I like the app. I love the idea of girls taking the first move- but... I HATE making the first move apparently. So I would just match with a bunch of guys... and never really knew what to talk about. Plus I like having A LOT of info in my bio and Bumble just doesn't give enough space for me. I only went out with 1 guy from Bumble I think and it was bad.  So after that I tried Coffee Meets Bagel... which is terrible. Maybe depending on...
