Chart Chat 8.4-8.6

Alrighty! Top 10 movies... I don't know what #1 is... so that's weird... but I'll find out. Lol.

10) Despicable Me 3- My favorite movie of the summer... also the only movie I've seen this summer. And I love it... I imagine it's leaving theaters soon- but I'd recommend seeing it.

9) War of The Planet of the Apes- Not my thing... but it could be someone's thing. This series of movies look more like my thing than other versions of Planet of The Apes... so that's good.

8) Detroit- I really like John Boyega...  I thought he was great in The Force Awakens... I'm excited that he's doing more than that... but this movie I think has already gotten some criticism... I'm not really sure what and I only half heard the review... but I'd imagine this is a hard movie to watch but a hard story to tell as well. I kind of want to watch it because of John Boyega... but I'm probably nor going to see it in theaters.

7) Atomic Blonde- This looks pretty awesome and Charlize Theron is really talented... I just think she's super cool and she sounded really excited about this movie and that's something I always like.

6) Spider Man Homecoming- I love spiderman. And It's kind of a sentimental movie for me now... which isn't really something I expected... but soon I'm going to go back and watch all the spider man movies. Idk if I'll get to see this... but I have a feeling it'll be in theaters for a while longer- so maybe I will! I love Spider Man... he's slowly becoming my favorite super hero... at least to watch in movie form. I think I still like Batman, The Hulk and Ghost Rider more... but I love Spider Man and I'm actually happy there are so many different spider men out there because they're all good and relevant... so that is awesome.

5) Kidnap- What a terrible name for a movie. Right? Not even Kidnapped... just Kidnap? That's some confusing Grammar right there. Maybe that's a plot twist and secretly Halle Berry is the kidnapper? That's unlikey... but it would kind of make the title a little better. I'm kind of over these kidnapper movies... I'm over Oscar winners in terrible movies... which will be coming up again in the #1 movie... lol. But I don't think this looks good. This is like an August movie for sure.

4) Girls Trip- This looks amazing. Amazingly funny cast... this is one of those movies people like so much that they're posting about it on Facebook a lot... which is awesome. It seems like a fun girl's night movie that you'll just have a good time seeing. Go see this one! I probably won't... but I'm going to tell everyone else to.

3) The Emoji Movie- I mentioned this a few times... not just in the chart chats... so I'll kind of skip over the actual plot of this movie and say: What's the deal with the Candy Crush Comeback? Right? Candy Crush is back here, it's back on the game show... they kind of mentioned it on Great News... It's just been all over the place. Side note: The Candy Crush Game Show is bad... I'm not a fan of Mario Lopez... I just feel like they're just playing Candy Crush on tv... and it's weird... so not my thing... but yeah.

2) Dunkirk- My grandfather would have loved to see this movie... so I'm happy for it's success and praise... I hope it gets nominated for an Oscar... and I want to see it for the sentimental reasons that I've been talking about sort of all over my blogs. It's a movie that if you're into history or War Movies- you'll probably like.

1) The Dark Tower- Ohhh okay this is the sci fi movie with Idris Elba and Matthew McConaughey... I thought Tom Cruise was in this too but it's Tom Taylor. This would probably be better with Tom Cruise... but maybe not. I don't see this movie becoming a thing... and I think it was supposed to be and maybe it will now that it's number 1? Only made 19.5 million dollars... which is bad. Dunkirk made $50, 513, ,488 in it's opening weekend. The budget of TDT was an estimated 66,000,000... not too high... it'll make the money back worldwide I'm sure... but yeah... not great for opening weekend and this got bad reviews. I'd watch this because of Idris Elba... which I'm guessing is why people love it so much lol. 

Alright... so with that exciting/ not so exciting end... I'm going to leave you there. Let me know if you liked any of these movies, hated them... If Dunkirk will be nominated for an Oscar. If someone should just give Idris Elba an Oscar for being sexy... If you are Idris Elba and you want to date me or something... just let me know. Lol. 

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...

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...
