Chart Chat! 9.25.17

Heyyy guys! I'm a little surprised at this week's charts... I know it was a tough call what would be number 1... and I'm not that surprised at number 1... but I'm a little surprised at number 3... so I'm just going to get into it and we'll talk a little bit about these movies!

10) Wind River- This has been on the charts for 8 weeks! I don't believe it's ever been at number 1 in those 8 weeks... it sounds okay but it could also maybe be bad IMHO... I'll watch it on TV if I get super bored...but I'm not that interested.

9) Stronger- This movie does sound very interesting. Jake Gyllenhaal has already got some Oscar Buzz for this role ... I want to see this. It looks sad though but the actors are very talented and I think they'll do a great job with it! This is based off of a true story- I mentioned that in the weekly Pop. This still isn't wide released... so I think it will do a lot better in upcoming weeks.

8) The Hitman's Body Guard- This has been on the top 10 charts for 6 weeks... and it's been holding kind of steady for a few weeks... it was number 1 on the charts for the first 3 weeks of it's run and it was still in the top 5 the last couple of weeks... so although this has fallen on the charts- it probably did better than it should have. I don't think this is exactly a hit movie- I can't imagine it being anyone's favorite movie ever or becoming a cult classic or anything... but 3 weeks at number 1 isn't bad! 5 weeks on the top 5 isn't bad and 6 weeks in the top 10 isn't bad either... so yeah.

7) Friend Request- This looks like a cheesey horror movie based on the digital age... I'm a little done with those... once you've seen one- you've seen them all right. Either way- in the top 7... first week on the charts... not the first horror movie I'd see out of all the options out right now... but still... this is a movie.

6) mother! - So this is getting pretty terrible reviews and buzz from that. I've heard it's really disturbing- I've heard it's pretty funny... I want to see it because of all this weird buzz around it. It is not the new Rosemary's Baby from what I can tell... but I think it tried to be... and yeah. I have no idea what to say about this one!

5) Home Again- This movie looked cute. Not the best movie ever... probably something that has been done before in a more interesting way... but nothing else is really out and I like Reese Witherspoon... so it might be worth seeing!

4) American Assassin- Again... this movie doesn't sound too interesting to me... but it might be... idk. I'm not sure what it's about.

3) The Lego Ninjago movie- This looks so funny! I want to see this one. I don't know that much about Ninjago... but this looks really cute and super funny. I liked The Lego Movie- didn't see Batman... want to see this one... I expected this to be #1 this weekend... so this is what surprised me... but its still good.

2) It- This looked scary... but as I've said before... don't think it's as scary as the original and I wasn't really scared by the original... I do think this movie needed a remake and it seems everyone was really excited for it... so there you go!

1) Kingsman: Golden Circle- I didn't see all of the first Kingsman movie... but I liked what I saw of it... so I was disappointed that this one got such bad reviews... I'll have to check Rotten Tomatoes, because Sandy Kenyon gave this a bad review- but maybe regular people on Rotten Tomatoes like it... 50% so it's on the green side... not horrible but mother actually has a red 63% tomato... so... there's that. 75% of audience members liked it so that is pretty good.



Alright guys! Hope you guys like this!

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...
