Chart Chat 10/31/17

Happy Halloween! Here we go with the Chart Chat... which I'm moving to Tuesday for the next few weeks!

10) It- Surprised this is on the bottom of the charts... but it still seems to be going strong for halloween! I didn't see Pennywise when I went out... I saw a couple of Twisty's though... which is strange. One Bar had a drawing of Pennywise on the menu... but I didn't see anyone dressed up as Pennywise. Just as well... that's a little too scary!

9) Suburbicon- This looks good... but I'm not too fond of Matt Damon or George Clooney right now... who knows though- they are good actors... but I can't see how something has been going on for years and they are "so shocked" about it... that's just me... but you know... this sucks lol. This hasn't gotten great reviews from what I've heard- so I think I'd rather hold out for Murder on the Orient Express for my Murder Mystery needs... but this looks good.

8) The Foreigner- I talked about this last week... it sounded like it had a more complicated storyline that is hard for me to try and convey... but yeah this is a movie that's out now.

7) Only The Brave- This is kind of a unique based on real life heroes story... I think at least. Not a lot of movies about fireman in wild fires and this had a good cast... so this looked interesting.

6) Thank You For Your Service- This sounds like a sad movie that is probably good to see... but hard to watch. It's about soldiers getting back from Iraq and their struggle to go back to their family life as a civilian. Miles Teller is in both this movie and Only The Brave... so if you like Miles Teller- you have some options this weekend!

5) Blade Runner 2049- Ryan Gosling is in this movie. I don't think there is any other reason to see it... idk what it's about.

4) Happy Death Day- This movie did look good... but honestly I don't always like "groundhog day" movies... I feel like that's a good way to tell a horror movie... but I'm not sure about it. It looked scary!

3) Geostorm- This is a science fiction Horror movie from the sounds of it. It sounds good... but I feel like this sort of disaster movie has been done before... idk it may be the #3 movie of the week... wouldn't be my first choice of movie.

2) Tyler Perry's' Boo 2: A Madea Halloween- If you're not into horror movies, but you still want some halloween fun at the movies- I think this movie is the way to go. I don't think there are any real horror elements to it... I think it just looks really funny. I haven't seen this or the first Boo! A Madea Halloween... but this looks good!

1) Jigsaw- This is the scariest movie you could probably see this weekend. From what I hear- the first few Saw movies have more of a plot and the rest are kind of just torture porn... I've never watched them... I don't think I'll attempt watching one anytime soon... but idk- I could lol. I have a feeling this will be more like the originals... but I don't know for sure. Maybe it's not as good. I feel like if I were to choose a horror movie- I'd go with It or Happy Death Day... but maybe this could be interesting. Glad they're reviving an old Franchise that isn't outdated yet.

So that is everything! Hope you liked it and you're having a fun Halloween! Did anyone dress up? Let me know!

Byeee!

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...

Scribbles About Food: Gloria Jeans Pistachio Chiller (kinda like a frap)

So since I'm doing all of the Frappuccino reviews, I thought I would give a shout out to a different coffee chain that I like... maybe even more than Starbucks! But I hardly ever go to it because A) People get your orders wrong there a lot B) I don't really live near one! So Gloria Jeans has some amazing drinks called Chillers that are like Frappuccinos, but they have always had a ton of really good and really interesting flavors. One of my favorite Seasonal ones is the Pistachio Chiller. They had this around this time last year also and its a really good unique flavor. Basically it tastes like pistachio ice cream... but in a frozen coffee form. Its pretty cool! And Pistachio is a pretty underrated flavor in my opinion. I don't get it enough, but I always love Pistachio and Almond flavored desserts and this in particular is really flavorful and just a really good chiller. I don't think there is anything at starbucks that compares to it really, its really different...

Throwback Thursday: Crazy Ex Girlfriend Season 1

One of my favorite shows is the very underrated Crazy Ex Girlfriend... and when I say underrated I mean the ratings are bad... I'm pretty sure there is a lot of critical hype that is very real and worthy of that sort of hype... I honestly didn't watch it live at all this year until the finale... it was all in my DVR... I had lost a little bit of interest to be honest after the first episode... but I bingewatched it all in one day pretty much and it was great... but that's season 2... let's go back to Season 1. If you're only familiar with Season 2... Season 1 isn't quite as dark. It's definitely more silly than Season 2. It isn't like the darkness and the drama isn't there, it just isn't quite as dark. I have a feeling the show is getting progressively darker, and the Season 2 finale was definitely the darkest so far. The show is meant to be a different spin on a Rom-Com. The girl moves across the country for a guy that has a girlfriend alrea...
