Chart Chat- 1/30/17

10) Gold- Never heard of this movie! It sounds kind of boring from the IMDB description. It's basically about finding Gold... it says released in 2016... so that's weird. But yeah. Doesn't sound like something I'm going to watch. But good it's in the top 10. Ohhh Matthew McConauhey and Bryce Dallas Howard are in it. Might be good. Lol.

9) Monster Trucks- Really shocked this movie did so badly! I really thought it looked good! I think that MacGyver guy is going to be a big star... mostly because he's hot... and I just thought this would be more of a thing.

8) Rogue One- I love Star Wars! Hopefully I can see this movie before it's out of theaters... don't think I will... but hopefully I don't get spoiled at least. It looks really good. I recently rewatched the originals... so this is probably a good time for me to see it.

7) Sing- The soundtrack for this movie is amazing! I want to see the movie... don't think I will in theaters, but I love the soundtrack so much that I'm happy about it.

6) xXx: Return of Xander Cage- This kind of makes me feel old... but I don't think they've made nearly as many of these movies. Vin Diesel is hot. January is a weird month for movies.

5) La La Land- Still looking forward to seeing this... hopefully before the Oscars! It's a musical and Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling are in it! I've talked about this a lot and I still am because it is still that good!

4) Resident Evil: The Final Chapter- No real interest in this... but it is the last one (until they make another.) That kinda makes me feel old... I remember when the first one came out and seeing the posters and they've made a lot more since then. It's still doing pretty well... so that is good at least!

3) Hidden Figures- This movie looks great! Excited so many people are actually interested in hearing this story that would have been hidden otherwise. So I'm happy for this!

2) A Dog's Purpose- Surprised this is doing so well because of the boycott... but honestly... I don't think the TMZ video was a very accurate representation of what happened. It was 2 videos edited together to make it look bad... and it still might have been a problem, but I don't think that they forced the dog in the water the same day that the video was showing it... idk what to think. Most of the cast and crew involved apologized for the tape... I still kind of want to see the movie...but it's unlikely I'll see it in theaters. It looks wayyy too sad for me though.

1) Split- I'm a little surprised that there wasn't more backlash to this movie. It looks like a horror movie along the lines of Don't Breathe, which was popular in late 2016. Actually... it looks exactly like that but instead of a blind person, the killer has split personalities. While this is very scary... there are people that do have Split Personalities in real life... and I feel like it's just a trope for Horror movies at this point and maybe we need to be more educated about mental illness and see it as something other than just a horror story. Other than that... it looked like a good enough movie... and if it was on and I felt like watching a horror movie... maybe I'd watch it... I just feel like there could be something we could do about this.

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...
