Chart Chat 7.11.17

To the movies!!!

10) The Beguiled- This looks scary... and I mentioned this last week. I think I want to see this with my sister... probably when it comes out on DVD or Blu Ray because... it's something she would like too... I'll have to ask her if she read the book. I love Sophia Coppola as a director... and I think this movie just looks good.

9) 47 Meters Down- I've talked about this before... I don't have a lot to say about it... but it sounds exciting and I want to see it because I like Mandy Moore. I could watch her in just about anything... she's fantastic... this seems like a more intense movie for her- and I'm excited to see her in that kind of role.

8) The Big Sick- I'm surprised this is so high on the charts considering that it hasn't been released worldwide yet... this looks great! I really want to see this... I might see it on Friday. It's Kumail Nanjiani's real life story. Michael Showalter is awesome and he is directing it... I'm excited for this one and I think everyone should be. I'm guessing this will quickly jump up the charts... maybe not to number 1 but this is a good sign. This is going to be a summer hit!

7) The House- This looked really funny... I love the cast. Feels like it's been done before... but this looks like a fun spin... idk. I'd watch it at some point, but I don't think this will be in theaters much longer and probably not on the charts for much longer either!

6) Cars 3- This movie will probably do even better in merchandise than it's doing in theaters... and I think it was on the top 5 most of it's run... so that's pretty well that it's still going strong. *Spoilers* Lightening McQueen may not have won the Piston Cup in this race... but he certainly has won everyone's hearts in this franchise!

5) Transformers: The Last Knight- Ughhhh... why is this still on the charts????? I can't with Transformers. One day, maybe I'll try. I did try with the first 2 movies... honestly I don't think the first was even that bad... just not my thing. The second was a little worse... and then there's just too much Shia Lebeouf.

4) Wonder Woman- This movie isn't going anywhere- is it? I still need to see this... it still isn't one I'm super ready to see. It's not the movie I want to see the most... I forgot how into Spider Man I was... so I really want to see the new Spider man... but yeah. Want to see this... it was never really at the top of my list... and maybe I'm a bad feminist or something... but it's one I think I can wait for.

3) Baby Driver- This one I want to see... Ansel Elgort, right????? I follow him on Instagram because I like him... hehehe. Anyway he's a good actor and this looks like a great cast and a good movie.

2) Despicable Me 3- I loved this movie!!! I want to see it again and again... I love the minions. They are my favorite... I just watched the first Despicable Me again this weekend... idk. I think I like these just as much. Great movies... I can't see how sooo many people don't love these. Lol.

1) Spider Man: Homecoming- I was a little over Spider Man because it keeps getting re-booted... and none of the other versions are even bad enough to have been dropped so quickly. I just watched The Amazing Spider Man 2 this weekend- that's the one with Andrew Garfield... that shouldn't have ended as abruptly as it did. Spider Man 3... I can kind of see why that was dropped... but I also kind of think it's one of my favorite Spider Man movies... lol. I know there's a lot wrong with it... as soon as I get these DVDs back to wear I can easily reach them... I will do a Throwback Thursday on the Toby Macguire Spiderman movies and re-review them... but Spider Man 3 really isn't as bad as people make it out to be. It probably isn't as good as I'm making it out to be either... half of the movie is Mary Jane and James Franco making an omelet and dancing... there's also a good chunk of the movie dedicated to MJ's acting career... wtf is that about? Lol. Anyway- I'm excited for this new take on Spider Man... and I want to see it even though it still feels too soon.

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...

Uhhhh... Where Have I been?

 So it hasn't been that long- but I did mention that I wanted to keep this more of a daily-ish blog than I have in years past... and my last post was the  4th and today was the 11th. Did I give up on my resolutions already?  No/Sort of... sooo basically I was kind of considering the real start of the new year January 5th... I was very busy with work things up until the 4th... the 4th was the big work event that I had to do... and then after that I could focus on whatever I wanted to focus on... and my blogs were going to be the number 1 thing that I focused on for sure... I might miss a few days... but surely I'd do something for this blog right on the 5th after the big work thing was done... so just leading up to that as long as I post something- everything is good right?  Nope- I realized my room design... needed some refreshing. And then one project turned into several projects and then that took a few days... I think I started on doing stuff on Wednesday of last ...

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...
