Movie Monday: Wonder Woman

 Alright so... I've watched a few movies recently... I wanted to get a review of Wonder Woman 1984 up before it was off of HBO Maxx... but that's not going to happen. So yeah. Mini review of Wonder Woman 1984 before the big one next week... It was bad. But also enjoyable. But bad. But I'd watch it again and recommend checking it out... but there are some problems we'll talk about next week. 

Anyway Wonder Woman was actually pretty good! It's a nice origin story for Wonder Woman... I think Gal Gadot was perfect as Wonder Woman. Her and Chris Pine had good chemistry throughout the movie. She was also pregnant while filming some of this movie I believe which is... kind of awesome. It was overall a good introduction for Wonder Woman. 

Okay... I watched this a while ago so I'm trying to remember what I liked and didn't like about it. The intro was pretty cool- we see Wonder Woman as a little girl and then we see her going into the real world and it is a little bit like Elf and Noel where it's hard for her to adjust to the real world. Actually in 1984 there are some parallels with Diana trying to show Steve what 1984 is like... so that's kind of cool. 

The good thing about this movie is that we actually see Wonder Woman doing Wonder Woman things... which is my biggest complaint about the sequel... she barely does any Wonder Woman stuff! But in this movie she does a lot of wonder woman stuff! It's pretty cool! 

I don't know much else to say about this... It's not my favorite super hero movie... but it was a really nice and enjoyable movie that I could watch over and over again! I haven't seen that many of the DC Movies- but this might be my second favorite after Shazam... it might be tied with Birds of Prey... which I also really enjoyed. So yeah. I would say see this one... get 1984 if you can when that's out in a few months even though it's kinda bad... and hopefully Wonder Woman 3 will be the best one yet because I'm a fan... but they're not my favorite. 

Okay- that is everything I think... sorry this is kind of a bad review where I don't know what to say but... it's a good movie I just don't have that many thoughts and critiques on it. 

Bye!

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...

Throwback Thursday: The Incredibles

This is one of the more underrated movies in the Pixar Universe... thatI think is actually getting more popular now than it was back when it was released... so that's good. I think it really stands the test of time... but it still isn't one of my favorites. This movie I think is pretty cool because it was the first time Pixar really used humans. When I was little I thought "Toys, Bugs, Monsters, Fish... the next movie will be about dogs!" And I was surprised it was this! I didn't know Pixar could do that! But I guess technically its about heroes and not humans... but then Pixar began to show more humans in their world and The Pixar Theory was started... and yeah. I just kind of want to state my opinion on the Pixar Theory here too cause why not: I don't believe that Pixar set out to create this elaborate world with all the movies connected... but I do still believe it exists in some way shape of form. It all adds up and checks out... so for me... somehow t...

Rereading My Favorite Thing I Wrote In College

Hey guys! I'd say "today's post is a little different" but they're all kind of different to begin with... so this might end up being the same- or at least something that can fit into this blog in a nice way. So I don't want to post the actual thing that I wrote... but in my college Creative Writing Class that I took at 21 we needed to write a fantastical realism short story. And I wrote something that I always liked. The lead character was a smart and sassy woman... the fantastical elements were exciting and unique... and the story as a whole had a cute ending and a good message... and I really liked the way that I took what happened in my real life and changed it into this amazing and fantastical thing. Re-reading it... it was still pretty good. I actually liked the ending a little bit better because it had a nice message about believing in yourself that I kind of just snuck in there without much thought... and there was a cute little love story. I liked ...
