Chart Chat 4.10.17

My favorite time of week... well not really but I do love writing these! Chart Chats! I'll regret saying that when we get to Kong Skull Island and I have to say something relatable about it... lol.

10) The Case for Christ- This is it's first week on the charts... it gained 3.9 million dollars this week. Haven't heard of it before... but this is the description from IMDB- "An investigative journalist and a self-proclaimed atheist sets out to disprove the existence of God after his wife becomes Christian. One of the writers for this is Brad Bird- not the Pixar Brad Bird... but he wrote for Touched by An Angel... so it's one of those religious movies that they release around Easter so that church groups can go... It probably isn't released in every theater... but I'm sure it'll be a little bit higher on the charts next week.

9) Get Out- This has been on the charts for 7 weeks... and honestly, I have not gotten tired of talking about it yet! I just want it to leave theaters so that I can buy it on Blu Ray and watch it at home because I don't think anyone wants to see this with me. Lol. I'm really proud of Jordan Peele for this directorial debut being such a success... you can tell from the trailer that he really worked hard on it and did a great job!

8) Logan- The newest X Men movie... the final bow for whats his name... Hugh Jackman! Totally slipped my mind lol! Anyway it's his last stand... lol. His last X Men movie- I'm just making X men puns now... anyway yeah his last X Men Wolverine movie... it's good from everything everyone is saying. I'm going to try watching this without seeing any other X Men movies and see if I like it. Maybe I'll review it for you guys... maybe I will never see it at all... lol.

7) Kong Skull Island- I think I need to start doing a series where I watch one of these movies that I just wait to get off the charts every day for a week just to see what happens. Kind of like "The Worst Idea of All Time" but every day one week instead of every week for a year. That would be really funny... and I think it could work!

6) Power Rangers- This looks pretty good. I like Power Rangers... I have a feeling I won't like this movie much though... so it might go to the same category as Kong... so yeah!

5) Ghost in The Shell- This would definitely be in the same category... but I don't think I want to support this movie... so there!

4) Going In Style- This looked like a really funny movie. I always complain about a lot of movies like this because there are a lot of movies where old men hit on young girls and the girls are portrayed as objects and they're just like "Wow, you're old thats hot." And it's just really bad... this doesn't look like that at all. So... I'm all for this movie. It's been getting bad reviews- but my grandfather and Uncle seemed to like it a lot!

3) Smurfs: The Lost Village- This looks like a lot of fun! I'm glad they stopped with the live action Smurf movies and they've started with these... the cast of voice actors looks really funny. The plot with the lost village of Girl Smurfs looks really funny. I think it looks like a great cartoon and I'm excited to see this sometime.

2) Beauty and the Beast- 4th week on the charts- 2nd week at Number 2... this movie was great! It's the last movie that I saw... probably the last new movie I'll see in a long time... and it's just amazing. Love the style- love the songs... it's a great one!

1) Boss Baby- Slightly shocked that Boss Baby is #1 for a second week! Go figure! I think it is like I said last week- it's a kids movie... plus older kids and adults would probably even like seeing it because Alec Baldwin is at the top of his game right now and it has a "Family Guy" vibe to it. I don't like Family Guy and I don't think this movie looks that cute... it probably would make me laugh because my sister just had a baby... but I don't think I'll see it... It doesn't really look like something I would like particularly... but I can understand the appeal of this!

Byeee!

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...

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...

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...
