Chart Chat 5.8.17

This Chart Chat is only slightly more interesting than last weeks... but I'll take it! Lol.

10) Smurfs: The Lost Village- I feel like it was too soon for another Smurfs movie... maybe Smurfs aren't really ever going to be a thing again... maybe the live action movie kind of ruined it... and it just isn't as cute in CGI as it was compared to when it was first on in the 80s. I wanted to see this one... but I feel like it's hard to make people like smurfs!

9) Going In Style - I was surprised this movie didn't do better... but at the same time... I feel like this suffers the same thing as the Smurfs. It's just not anyone's first choice for a movie... there are other movies like it and while it might be really good... it didn't get great reviews and it seems like this movie has been out before.

8) Gifted - This seems like another good movie that just wouldn't be anyone's first choice to see in theaters. Some people love seeing these smaller movies and know more about them than I do that would probably love this... and people love Chris Evans... which I don't blame anyone for... so I guess that's why this has remained on the charts... but it seems like it's been done before to me. And I know every movie sort of has at this point... but I'm picky.

7) Baahubali 2: The Conclusion- This was number 3 on the charts last week I believe... idk what it's really about... here's the synopsis on IMDB! " When Shiva, the son of Bahubali, learns about his heritage, he begins to look for answers. His story is juxtaposed with past events that unfolded in the Mahishmati Kingdom." So... yeah... whatever that means. It looks very action packed and good! It's an Indian movie... which is kind of surprising that it's doing so well at the US Box office... but the pictures make it look good... so I'd probably watch this if I see it on TV. 

6) The Circle- Not exactly sure what this movie is about either... but it looks suspenseful and I like the cast, so I would definitely see this! I would see this in theaters... but I know I probably won't get to... but I will definitely watch it as soon as it's on tv!

5) Beauty and The Beast- 2 in a row on the top 10 for Emma Watson! Good for her! She's hot right now! Loved this movie... would see it again even.

4) How To Be A Latin Lover- This looked funny... but I'm still a little surprised it's in the top 5 because it didn't look that great!

3) The Boss Baby- Still super surprised this has not been off the top 3 since it's been out! It's been out for quite a while too... but I guess this has the appeal that the other movies I mentioned are lacking and that is why it's been so popular. I would probably rather see this than "Fate of The Furious" if someone were to be like "hey, want to go to the movies!" And I know a lot of people don't like sci fi... so it might be more appealing than Guardians too!

2) The Fate of The Furious- Not my thing... but at least it isn't #1 anymore!

1) Guardians of The Galaxy Vol. 2- I am really excited for this movie! Hopefully I'll be able to see it Thursday or Friday. I loved the first movie so much... Chris Pratt is perfect... everyone is really perfect in this movie... it is just a fantastic sci-fi Rock Opera type of movie!

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...

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...

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...
