November Favourites!

-
It's time for another favourites!

I've got some new followers since the last time I made a 'Favourites' post, so I really hope you enjoy seeing what my favourite things of this month are!
In terms of favourites, this month has been great! I've been introduced to so many new things and have been really excited to write this post!

Favourite Movie: The Best Man Holiday

 
Although this film came out last year, I only saw it for the first time about 2 weeks ago. A week after that, I watched the first film (this is a sequel) so you can see how late I am! It's classified as a Christmas film and I really enjoyed it when I saw it. I'm not going to give you an overview because it will spoil the first one but I'll put both of the trailers below.

Favourite TV Show: Everybody Loves Raymond

 
I know that this show has been finished for ages, but I just love it so much! It comes on every morning on channel 4, but I'm always at college, so I've started recording the episodes so I can watch them when I come home. Seriously, if you don't watch this, watch an episode and see how good it is!
 

Favourite Song: Thinking Out Loud

 
What first attracted me to this song was the music video for it. If you haven't seen it, I'll also link it below, but it's Ed Sheeran dancing with a girl, and it literally puts all of the dancers on 'Strictly Come Dancing' to shame! Watch the video, it's amazing!

Favourite YouTuber: Jack Howard

 
This week, I have been talking a lot with Eve (awesome blogger and newest friend), and I knew we would be good friends based on the fact that we both have a mutual love for Mr Jack Howard. You may not know him if you only watch really mainstream YouTubers, but if you're a fan of Louise (Sprinkle Of Glitter), then you'll probably know him as he's one of her best friends. As well as him being gorgeous, the thing I love most about Jack is the amount of work that he puts in to his videos. By looking at his own videos, his Jack and Dean videos and the videos that he helps people, such as Louise, with, you can see how dedicated he is and how hard he works. He's amazing!
 

Favourite Game: Sporcle

 
This is a quiz website that my dad introduced me to and I love it! You basically just answer quiz questions but I just find it good because you can choose the categories that you're best at, challenge people, and you can spend hours on it without getting bored!
 

Favourite Music Artist: Ed Sheeran

 
I've said this in an earlier post, but I bought Ed Sheeran's album X 2 weeks ago and it's freaking amazing. I've been listening to it non-stop. On Wednesday during a free period, my best friend Lilly and I were just listening to X as we worked and, because his music is so mellow, it was really easy to just work with his voice in the background.
 

Favourite Celebrity: Jennifer Aniston

 
Her new film 'Horrible Bosses 2' is out today and she has been having a lot of interviews about it. The first Horrible Bosses is in my top 3 favourite films and she was amazing in it, so I really want to see how amazing she is in the sequel! Also, watching F.R.I.E.N.D.S probably every day has also made me love her!
 

Favourite YouTube Video: Louise VS Jack

 
As I have already mentioned, I love Jack Howard. And I love Louise. Putting Jack and Louise together is just short of genius and I hope they post many many more collabs in the future because I love seeing them together and their friendship is so amazing!

    Lovely post. And the video for 'Thinking Out Loud' (did not even know the tune was called that) is mega to watch. It is good, even great dancing. For Everybody Loves Raymond and with Friends, I've watched them. Couldn't talk much of them though (poor memory - yikes!). Tc.

Hot Frosty | Blogmas Day 17

-

  It's Blogmas day 17! When Cathy (Lacey Chabert) accidentally brings a snowman to life, she discovers the magic Jack the snowman (Dustin Milligan) brings to the town of Hope Springs. This is the third of four highly anticipated Netflix Christmas originals this year that I'm including in Blogmas. And while it's not the most original story, I've always loved the idea of Jack Frost, so I was excited to see it. Thankfully I liked this one - though maybe not as much as I wanted to. I really liked the character of Cathy. Not only was she really likeable, but because we get to know her so quickly, we can really root for her. I also loved the tone of the film. It didn't take itself seriously at all and made it clear to the audience that we're just there to have fun. All of the actors, main and supporting, were great. They were so much fun to watch and all played their characters really well. The chemistry between Cathy and Jack is great! You really want to see them tog...

Christmas Holidate | Blogmas Day 19

-

  It's Blogmas day 19! When Holly (Jasmine Burke) uses her company's app to find a date to bring home for the holidays, a glitch in the app causes more than one date to turn up. This film had an interesting premise because it seemed really original, and it looked like there would be a lot of chances for fun and humour. I didn't end up liking it as much as I wanted to. But one thing I liked was how much more modern it felt than most of the other movies I've watched for Blogmas this year. Even just the idea of her finding her date(s) through an app is original for a Christmas film. It's nice that the movie was family-focused, but the family it focuses on aren't that interesting and can't really carry the story. The main couple have chemistry and it was fun to watch them interact, but I never really cared about them one way or the other. And if for some reason they didn't end up together, it wouldn't have mattered to me. It took about 40 minutes for the...

Holiday for Hire | Blogmas Day 20

-

  It's Blogmas day 20! After getting dumped right before going home for the holidays, Katie (Christie Leverette) hires a man to pretend to be her boyfriend in front of her family. Finally a fake dating trope! A couple of the films this year have played with the theme, but this one really goes for it and I love that! But as much as I loved the premise, the film didn't really live up to it. However, one thing I loved as much as I loved the premise was Katie. Right from the beginning she was a character I could get behind and really root for. I also really loved Katie's roommate Sarah (Jeanne Lau) and I wish she had been given more to do, and more of a story. Why is she spending Christmas alone?? I tried not to look at the film from a point of realism, as this is a Christmas movie after all, but where was the sense of safety? The main couple are complete strangers at the start and it felt weird to see how quickly they trusted each other. And while I liked the characters intera...

A Christmas Proposal | Blogmas Day 16

-

  It's Blogmas day 16! When Jason (Joshua T. Shipman) is forced to move for work, and his girlfriend cannot go with him because they are not married, he creates an elaborate plan to propose by Christmas. So apparently there are two films with the same name, made in the same year, and it looks like I picked the worst of the two! From the very beginning, the tone of the film is really odd. It was taking itself way too seriously for what is supposed to be a light Christmas movie. The plot didn't really make much sense. A few times throughout the film there was a point made that the character didn't want to be with his girlfriend, and had actually requested a be transferred to get away from her. So why are we watching him plan a proposal? Why is he planning a proposal in the first place? There were really weird moments throughout the film where the sound quality would drastically change when a character was speaking but not on camera, despite supposedly being in the same room. ...

Christmas on Ice | Blogmas Day 21

-

  It's Blogmas day 21! Former figure skater Courtney (Abigail Klein) teams up with former hockey player Noah (Ryan Cooper) to save the local ice skating rink from closing. I picked this one because it just seemed so quintessentially rom-com-y that I had no choice! And it also seemed like it would be really Christmassy, which is always important for a Christmas film. Unfortunately this one wasn't as romantic as it could have been. But I will say the Christmas part holds up - is there anything more Christmassy than ice skating?? My main gripe with the film is that I completely fell in love with a couple and was willing to spent all my time and energy on them. The only problem was, it wasn't the main couple! It was the side couple who were given no time! If the main couple of this film had been Beth (Caroline Portu) and Trevor (Matthew Grimaldi) this could have been a great Christmas movie. I really liked what little I saw of them and wanted so much more than the film gave us....
