Chart Chat 7.17.17

Alrighty... let's check out these charts!

10) The House- Probably the last week on the charts for this movie... it looks really funny... but as I've mentioned... it looks like it's been done before. It is Will Ferrel's birthday though... so congrats to him for having a top 10 movie out for the 3rd week in a row on his birthday! Not his biggest accomplishment... but something to be proud of.

9) Transformers: The Last Knight- thank goodness this is ending it's run on the charts! I'm getting impatient with this one. Lol.

8) Cars 3- This looks cute! I've been liking Cars a little bit more too... I'm excited that Pixar announced a new Original movie coming soon because I'm always going to be more excited for new Pixar movies compared to their sequels.

7) Wish Upon- I don't think this looks good... it's kind of been done already... it's a lot like the psychological thriller The Box starring Cameron Diaz... only a horror movie version and to me it doesn't look that scary. Not my thing. And I don't think it'll be on the charts long. If it was around in January or some slow week this might be higher... but I don't even think it would then. Split was quite high on the charts for several weeks even when other movies were coming out... not too many new movies are out and this is low on the charts... so I'm guessing people thought the same thing as I did. Weirdly... a song called "my wish" came on when I was typing my next thing... so that's super weird.

6) Wonder Woman- This is still doing so well... and most people have already seen it. I have not yet... but this is one of the biggest movies of 2017... I think this is what people will remember of 2017. So that's cool.

5) The Big Sick- I predicted this would climb up the charts quickly because who doesn't want to see this movie? It's a true story... I'm a fan of the comedian... Ray Romano is in it... and he's great... and it's directed by Michael Showalter who I love.

4) Baby Driver- Another very buzzed about movie... this summer has more surprise hits than I thought it would... Ansel Elgort is cute and he's going places... so yeah!

3) Despicable Me 3- Loved this movie! Possibly the best Despicable Me yet... I really recommend this. So funny and fun.

2) Spider Man: Homecoming- I've watched The Amazing Spider Man the last couple weekends... and I'm still upset that they never finished that series before starting this new one... but this new one still looks great. I think I'm just a fan of Spider Man... he might be one of my favorite superheroes right now... Batman is my real favorite... but I'm not a big fan of the current batman movies.. and I've loved all of the Spider Man movies... even the bad one... so this one still excited me.

I do kind of wish it was Donald Glover though. Maybe he'll be the next lol. He is in the new Spider man movie... I think it's supposed to be a surprise cameo... but I'm pretty sure it was announced somewhere.

1) War of the Planet of The Apes- Now suddenly I feel myself missing Transformers... I'm not into Planet of the Apes... any of the originals or reboots. This trilogy looked like it was a perfect trilogy if you're into it... I think I could watch the first Planet of the Apes movie in this series... I don't think I'd like the second... I'd give this one a chance... but there is no James Franco. I think John Lithgow was in the original either... so if there's no Franco or Lithgow... what's the point.

That is it! Hope you guys like this chart chat! let me know if you saw any of these movies. Should I give Planet of the Apes a chance? Is John Lithgow really in it, or did I make that up... because i probably would watch just about anything with John Lithgow in it.

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...

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...

Some Pretty Funny Mini Stories That Happened Recently

Okay... so I feel like I have a few stories to tell... a lot of random funny things have happened this past week or so and I just feel like telling them... so yeah. Hope these are interesting. The Penny Pincher  This actually happened a while ago. And some backstory: My mom and I babysit my niece on weekdays and my niece is a toddler- who is pretty easygoing- and I don't really mind watching her on my own...but somedays it gets a little long and it's nice to have 2 people there. Anyway she had to go to the grocery store to get a tomato sauce... and we like a particular kind of tomato sauce... some woman actually took that tomato sauce out of her cart and put the generic version in her cart because "this woman knows tomato sauce and this stuff is the same." It really wasn't the same at all... the type I think had diced tomatoes and that isn't what we needed for the recipe or something like that. The tomatoes were different and it wouldn't have worked wi...
