Chart Chat 11.7.17

10) Let There Be Light This is a religious movie that will likely be on the charts for weeks because people see it in Church groups... I've never heard about it before... it's about an Atheist that goes through a near death experience and then believes in Christianity. Near Death Experiences are interesting... this plot sounds kind of interesting but... it doesn't sound like much for a whole movie... There have been other movies of this variety that sound interesting and something that my mom watches even though we don't go to church... it could be very sad too... so keep that in mind.

I'm excited for the movie Wonder to come out... It has Julia Roberts, Owen Wilson and Daveed Diggs, it looks like a very uplifting movie. I'll talk about it when it's on the charts... and I think I'm actually going to see the movie so I'm sure I'll have a review.

9) Only The Brave I've talked about this a few times... Firemen- Miles Teller... it sounds different. Also sort of an inspirational movie about some real life heroes... I think this was the Fireman one... maybe it was the miner one? I can't remember... either way... it's something inspirational and different.

8) Thank You For Your Service I haven't heard much about this movie... it's about Veterans adjusting to civilian life... and it's one of those things I think will make me cry. I think this is just about veterans of the current war... it would be interesting if they did a movie with different veterans from different wars and how they all deal with coming home... It would interest me to see how someone from one of the World Wars could relate to the verterans today... That would be interesting to see... but again, very sad and likely very hard to watch.

7) Blade Runner 2049 Ohhh good... this is still on the charts... I was worried it dropped and I would need to talk about a movie I'm more interested in. NEXT!

6) Happy Death Day- Surprised to see this behind Geostorm... but also surprised this movie did so well. It was part of the Blumhouse house (I think?) In Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios Hollywood. I've heard that event wasn't that great this year... but maybe they'll improve next year or have it in Orlando where I think the HHN budget is a little bit bigger. With this movie doing so well... maybe the Hollywood budget will be bigger next year too. Who knows.

5) Geostorm This has been charting for a minute now... and it sounds interesting enough. I didn't think people would be that interested in this movie... but yeah. Guess they were!

4) Tyler Perry's Boo 2! A Madea Halloween- Surprised this is still in the Top 5! This Box Office takes place after Halloween... so that's kind of interesting... yeah. I haven't seen a Madea movie... but Tyler Perry can be either really good or really bad.

3) Jigsaw I feel like the Saw films have gone in a weird direction... The first few movies had more of a plot from what I gather than the last few and this one looks more like it has a plot... I don't think I'll watch it either way. I like Horror movies... I don't really like slasher or killer movies though... which I guess this is? But still for an R Rated horror movie... not bad!

2) A Bad Mom's Christmas- I loved Bad Mom's and I'm excited for this movie... I'm not sure I'll be seeing it... my mom and I had plans to see it this weekend but then we got kind of busy and tired... next week we want to see Murder on the Orient Express... then we want to see Wonder... so yeah. I'm not sure we'll end up seeing this... hopefully we do but it's not at the top of my list for movies to see. I've been waiting for Murder on the Orient Express for a while now. I love all the actors in it.

1) Thor: Ragnarock I've never seen a Thor movie... I've seen The Avengers... but never Thor. This one sounds like it'll be a great movie though and I'm intrigued by it because it is directed by the same director (or directors?) of What We Do In The Shadows... which is one of the best funny movies ever... if you haven't seen it yet... you should see it. So I kind of want to see this... I don't plan on seeing it anytime soon though!

That's everything for this week! 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...

Blogmas Day 12: The 12 Days of Christmas Gift Guide

So I thought it would be fun to do a gift guide that every gift corresponds with the price. So like for the first day of Christmas $1 gift that would be good and then up from there. These would be good stocking stutterers and things I just think are unique. $1- Solar Powered Dancers!  My mom loves getting the little dancing solar powered people. We get most of ours from Dollar tree... other dollar stores have them too, they're super cute and fun for $1. Its good to put near any plants that you have that way you know they're getting sunlight. It's a good gift. $2- Mini Coloring Book!  At 5 Below they had some mini travel sized coloring books for $2. I thought these were pretty cool. I got the Botanical one I believe. Really cute and fun! I would recommend! $3-   Ceramic Truck w/ Christmas Tree  I saw this at the Target Dollar Spot and I thought it was cute and would probably make a great gift. If you know someone who has a truck or likes the sort of "rustic C...

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...
