Movie Monday: 10 Movies+ Mini Reviews

 This is random because I want to do a Movie Monday... but I haven't watched any movies lately... so I'm just going to chose 10 Random Movies that I might not have seen in a while and... give them a little mini review... Based on basically nothing. 

1) Teen Titans Go To The Movies(2018) - I saw this about a year ago I think... I liked it. It was cute and funny. I was never really into Teen Titans or Teen Titans go... but Teen Titans Go To The Movies was really good! It was funny, had a nice story and a Stan  Lee Cameo- which ended up being one of his last. It was just good- I'd totally recommend checking it out! 

2) The Heat (2013) -  I really liked this movie at the time I saw it. I actually saw it twice in theaters. I own the DVD or Blu Ray now- but still haven't watched it since it was in theaters. Very funny... but sometimes if I see a movie more than once in theaters- I'm okay with never seeing it again in real life. It's weird... but I still kind of liked it. 

3) Dr. Horrible's Sing Along Blog (2008)- So I really loved this movie when I first saw it. It's funny, its sad and the music is really good. Plus it's just short and easy to watch. Now I've heard some... Horrible... things about Joss Whedon- who directed this movie and I'm a little iffy about watching it again... but it's still kind of brilliant and I think you can watch it on youtube still for free. The singing is really good at least and you'll get a laugh out of it. 

4) Inception (2010)- This movie was okay... I don't really get the hype of it or the big "twist ending" that people are debating about. It's not my favorite movie but... idk I feel like I should watch it again. I really like Ellen Page and I feel like she just fits in this movie. 

5) Welcome to Marwin (2018)- No. Don't watch this movie. It's so disappointing and bad. 

6) Bolt (2008) -Disney was going through a weird time when this movie came out and... I feel like it isn't the best because of that. I don't really think John Travolta is a great voice actor... same with Miley Cyrus... idk it just wasn't my favorite Disney Movie... but it is still pretty good. I'd recommend checking it out again at least in the backround while you're doing something else if you can. It's not terrible. 

7) The Royal Tennenbaums (2001)- Wes Anderson is someone people either love or hate... I feel like his movies are like cilantro. I happen to be a big fan and... I feel like even if you're not a fan you can probably appreciate just how stunning his movies are. This isn't my favorite of his- my favorite is definitely Isle of Dogs... but this one is really good. If you're a fan of Arrested Development- there are some similarities to the Bluths and Tennenbaums... so you might want to check it out. 

8) Practical Magic (1998)- I'm excited to watch this movie before halloween. It's really cute and Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman are just really great together in this one. Nicole Kidman is a very beautiful actress- but she is particularly gorgeous in this movie. This one is just really fun to watch. 

9) Hereditary (2018)- Another movie I plan on watching again before Halloween... this movie is gruesome and dark but... it is really something. If you like horror and you aren't afraid of gore... this is a perfect horror drama movie! 

10) Batman Returns (1992) - This might be one of my favorites from Tim Burton... idk I just think of all his work this might be the most Tim Burton-y... its really good. And I think Michelle Pfiffer is my favorite Cat Woman. 

That's it! I will probably do more of these in the future because... it's easy and it's fun lol. 

Bye!

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...

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...

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...
