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!

Disney Store Closing Haul

So if you read my post from yesterday- you know that I love The Disney Store, but it is unfortunately closing. I did pick up some things from the store that I thought I'd share with you guys! I did get a couple of t shirts. One is a Star Wars shirt, which is technically a men's shirt but I thought it looked really cool and I don't like that Disney doesn't carry the same things for men and for women. For the most part they look unisex to me and a lot of their men's stuff has characters I like better. Like the star wars shirt for women was grey with pink lettering and had no pictures, but the mens shirt had a really cool metallic silver logo on black clothing with pictures of all the new characters and Luke inside of the letters... much cooler! So I got that! The other shirt I got is really funny and it has Sleeping Beauty on it and it says "I Woke Up Like This." Which I really liked! Super cute and funny and my niece likes it when I wear shirts with c...

Scribbles About Life: 3.10.16

Soooo... I don't really want to post about my day... but I don't really want to post anything else either. I started writing something about female characters in movies and TV... but I just didn't like what I was writing and... idk... I was a blog writing machine this week and now I feel defeated. I wrote a ton on Monday and Tuesday and now I just don't feel like doing a post today... but I want to write still... So I'll talk about things that I guess are on my mind lately... Idk. So I got this Revlon Ultra HD Matte Lipcolor... and for some reason... I'm addicted to the way that it smells. Idk why, it smells like cherry medicine... but I also sort of like it. Its more cherry than medicine... and I can't smell it on my lips... but Idk. I keep smelling it in the tube. I got some cute stuff from American Eagle yesterday too! I got a dress and a romper... I do not own any Rompers... except this one... but it looked good on me and it didn't make me look f...

Throwback Thursday: 13 Going On 30

So I watched this on VH1 around Christmas Time because it was on... they really need to bring this movie to Netflix because it's pretty fantastic and VH1 doesn't get the whole thing. I didn't catch the very beginning... but I did watch most of it from around the time when Matty gives her the Dream House... so sweet. It was a little weird to watch this movie because when it came out, I was 13 or almost 13... and now I'm closer to being 30... but I still felt more connected to the 13 year old Jenna instead of the adults in the movie. Like I'm not totally sure when I turned almost 30... but I don't like it. I'm still 13 year old Jenna who likes the same music as when I was 13 and has kind of the same style as I did then... I don't know... its just kind of a weird thing and I was freaking out a little bit from it. This is also the movie that introduced me to one of my favorite actresses, Judy Greer! I love Judy Greer, she's so funny and great and s...
