Chart Chat- Clowns back on top? And other stuff (October 2nd 2017)

Alright... you can probably tell what the number 1 movie is already... but let's start with 10 anyway because who doesn't love a countdown?

10) Mother!- Probably the end of it's week on the charts... one of the worst reviewed movies of the year which is also said to be one of the most disturbing movies of the year... and while people are comparing it to Rosemary's Baby... I think it's a lot different than that and people aren't liking it very much... so if you want to catch Mother! Catch it soon in theaters... but something's telling me you can skip this one. It reminded me a bit of a couple of skits in the movie The Holidays- which was an anthology of horror movies- they had a Mother's Day story and I forget what exactly happened... but I believe it was similar... and they had a St. Patrick's Day sketch that was a little more humorous... those come to mind- I did a review on that a while ago. Wow... I reviewed this over a year ago! here is the link to my review on Holidays if you want to read it and tell me if it's similar to this movie or not because I haven't seen this one. Lol.

9) Till Death Do Us Part- This movie is on the charts for the first week... I don't think I've ever heard about this one! It's about a couple that seem perfect but the man gets too controlling... this does not sound appealing to me in the slightest. Idk- it's been done before and the synopsis just didn't sell me on this movie... so I don't think I'll ever watch it... if it goes up in the charts or someone comments recommending it- I'll consider this... but yeah. I don't think this will be on the charts for long.

8) Home Again- 4th week and this is still in the top 10... that should give you an idea of how terrible movies are this week... lol. Just kidding- but yeah... again this looked done before- the trailers didn't sell me. The only thing that kind of has me sold is that I like most Reese Witherspoon movies so it might be pretty good.

7) American Assassin- 3rd weeks on the charts... I think this was number 1 one week... I have almost no interest in this movie. I might watch it for one of those "Shannon watches something  she doesn't want to" posts that I always want to do... but it's just not something I'm really looking forward to seeing.

6) Battle of The Sexes- This is one I really want to see. Critics are saying Emma Stone could get a second Oscar for this... which would be amazing. Steve Carell looks good too... and even though I don't really like Tennis... I can enjoy a movie about tennis.

5) Flatliners- This is the worst reviewed movie of fall... oddly enough I think I would see this even though I'm sure it's not a great movie... Ellen Page isn't someone that I think is the best actress... but it sounds interesting to me. A group of medical students decides to "flatline" themselves to see "what lies beyond" and they each have a near death experience. I think I would like this better if this was an episode of Community or something... not really as a whole movie that you actually see in theaters... so yeahhh. Not something I think sounds amazing... but it interests me.

4) The Lego Ninjago Movie- I really like The Lego Movie- I like that they keep coming out with new things to keep it fresh and it's never the same thing over and over again even though it's the same sense of humor.

3) Kingsman: Golden Circle- I liked the first Kingsman movie... this doesn't sound great to me... I've heard bad reviews and I don't know... I just thought the first one ended well... I'm sad that this sequel has gotten disappointing reviews. I wanted to see it... now I kind of don't because the end of the first one was so good!

2) American Made- I think this has actually gotten a lot of praise and I think this could be good. Tom Cruise action movies are pretty good for the most part... I don't actually know if I've seen him in many movies... I've seen War of The Worlds- which is an action-y movie he was really good in... and I've seen Collateral which was really good... so yeah. I'd like to see him as a villain again like in Collateral... but this looks good too.

1) It- For the 3rd week on number 1... 4th week on the charts- people are back to seeing this! Now that it's actually october I think people will want to go see this movie for halloween or just as a scarier option... It's odd that it was number 2 last week- but now it's back on top and I don't think it's going anywhere. They've already confirmed a Chapter 2 coming soon... so yeah.

That is everything! Hope you guys like it!

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...

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...

Some Pretty Funny Mini Stories That Happened Recently

Okay... so I feel like I have a few stories to tell... a lot of random funny things have happened this past week or so and I just feel like telling them... so yeah. Hope these are interesting. The Penny Pincher  This actually happened a while ago. And some backstory: My mom and I babysit my niece on weekdays and my niece is a toddler- who is pretty easygoing- and I don't really mind watching her on my own...but somedays it gets a little long and it's nice to have 2 people there. Anyway she had to go to the grocery store to get a tomato sauce... and we like a particular kind of tomato sauce... some woman actually took that tomato sauce out of her cart and put the generic version in her cart because "this woman knows tomato sauce and this stuff is the same." It really wasn't the same at all... the type I think had diced tomatoes and that isn't what we needed for the recipe or something like that. The tomatoes were different and it wouldn't have worked wi...
