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!

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 Food: Gloria Jeans Pistachio Chiller (kinda like a frap)

So since I'm doing all of the Frappuccino reviews, I thought I would give a shout out to a different coffee chain that I like... maybe even more than Starbucks! But I hardly ever go to it because A) People get your orders wrong there a lot B) I don't really live near one! So Gloria Jeans has some amazing drinks called Chillers that are like Frappuccinos, but they have always had a ton of really good and really interesting flavors. One of my favorite Seasonal ones is the Pistachio Chiller. They had this around this time last year also and its a really good unique flavor. Basically it tastes like pistachio ice cream... but in a frozen coffee form. Its pretty cool! And Pistachio is a pretty underrated flavor in my opinion. I don't get it enough, but I always love Pistachio and Almond flavored desserts and this in particular is really flavorful and just a really good chiller. I don't think there is anything at starbucks that compares to it really, its really different...
