Nine Months and The Music Tag!

-
 
(Yes, I did just use the fact that I've been blogging for nine months to plug one of my favourite films ever - let it go)
 
Hey Guys!
 
On Monday, my blog hit nine months old! I completely forgot about it and only remembered on Wednesday, when I did my monthly favourites post.
 
Nine months is a hell of a long time! I mean, that's how long it takes to make a human!
 
Honestly though, thank you so much to everyone who has been reading my posts, commenting on them and, just chatting with me about them. It means more than you know and has helped me to keep thinking of different post ideas every time I post.
 
I've achieved a lot with this blog over the last 9 months and I couldn't be happier with it now. Not only the design of it, but the quality of my posts and my ideas.
 
I made a decision as the new year came in that I would make my posts a lot more personal, so that I could be a lot more passionate about them. On the one hand, this was really scary, especially at the beginning of the month. But all of the nice comments and messages that I have got about my posts so far this month have really made it worth it! I love doing somewhat personal posts and will definitely keep doing them for as long as I'm passionate about something - anything!
 
So, to celebrate nine months, I'm going to do "The Music Tag!". I tag everyone reading to give it a go, because I love these questions!
 
The Music Tag!
 
Favourite band/musician of the moment?
Ed Sheeran. I say this too much but his album X is the best thing in my life right now!
 
Band/musician you always come back to?
The Wanted. I always go back to their first two albums because they just hold so many amazing memories for me and make me feel really happy (and also sad that they broke up!)
 
Favourite song of all time?
I have no idea! Literally. My favourite song changes daily, and all time is a BIG thing! Maybe 'Bubble Wrap' by McFly?
 
Most embarrassing song in your iTunes/music library?
'The Climb', and I know what you're thinking: "Miley Cyrus isn't embarrassing". Well, I don't mean the Miley Cyrus version, I'm talking about the Joe McEldery version. Remember him? The guy that won X Factor UK back in 2009. Yep, him!
 
Favourite CD/Album?
I'm actually not going to say Ed Sheeran (for once!). I'm going to say D.E.M.I by Demi lovato, because it's also an amazing album and I really love her!
 
Favourite album art?
 
Because they look amazing, like superheroes. Enough said!
 
Favourite movie soundtrack?
Grease! Or Hairspray! I'm going to go with Grease, because who doesn't love Grease? (Unless you haven't seen it, in which case, you really need to!)
 
First concert you ever attended?
JLS. I loved them immensely!
 
Has your music taste changed over time?
Literally not. I still love songs now that I loved when I was 13. And I have always and will always be in love with boybands!
 
Thank you for reading, and thank you so much for sticking with me for the past 9 months! I hope the next 9 are as good as these have been!

My Christmas Fiancé | Blogmas Day 13

  It's Blogmas day 13! Maya (Jennifer Freeman) agrees to pretend to be her boss's (Jack Parr) fiancé so that he doesn't have to get married. I picked this one because I love the fake dating trope in rom-coms, and I really wanted to find a movie for Blogmas that used this trope. Honestly though, I probably shouldn't have bothered, because this film wasn't great. The story took me a while to get into. And while I wasn't loving it straight away, I was hopeful that when the characters started their fake dating/engagement, it would become more interesting. But it didn't. One reason for this is how long the characters spent at work. They're both chefs and the majority of the first half of the film is spent in the kitchen cooking things that the audience don't care about. I understood the need to establish the relationships but it took way too long to do so. The characters weren't believable as anything - colleagues, friends, partners, anything. There w...

Merry Magic Christmas | Blogmas Day 14

  It's Blogmas day 14! In the lead-up to Christmas a financial advisor (Patricia Isaac) helps a theatre director (Andrew Dunbar) keep his theatre running. To be honest, that might not be an accurate description of the film. Not only have I completely forgotten what the film was actually about, I also forgot that I watched it! So this entire review is coming from the notes I made while watching, because for some reason it's a really forgettable film. I didn't get a great first impression of either of the main characters, and because of that, neither of them were particularly likeable. Not only was this the second Blogmas movie based around a theatre, but it was also the second to prominently feature 'A Christmas Carol' as the show the theatre was putting on. Could we please retire this now? There's a bit of chemistry between the main characters, but they just didn't work well together for me. I never quite bought them, and the potential romance wasn't som...

The Merry Gentlemen | Blogmas Day 12

  It's Blogmas day 12! As usual, since day 12 is my birthday I try to pick something either special, or that I'm really looking forward to. Of the new Netflix Christmas movies this was the one I was most looking forward to, so it made sense to have this down for day 12! A Broadway dancer (Britt Robertson) stages an all-male Christmas revue to save her parents' business. I absolutely loved this film! From the beginning, it's clear that a lot of time and effort was put into the creation of the characters - particularly our main couple who felt very authentic. But all the characters were great to watch - even those that don't get as much development or screen time. The chemistry was so great! As soon as the characters were on screen together I completely saw them as a potential couple and was rooting for them to get together. This stays the same the whole way through, and by the end it actually feels like this couple could last past the credits. The stakes actually fel...

Christmas in Notting Hill | Blogmas Day 11

  It's Blogmas day 11! When famous footballer Graham Savoy (William Moseley) meets Georgia (Sarah Ramos), who has no idea who he is, he finds himself enticed by the idea of being anonymous, and even more enticed by Georgia herself. I think this is the only Blogmas movie set in the UK, so for that alone it was an easy pick! The premise was great and felt somewhat original (for a Christmas movie anyway). I really really liked this one - it was a lot better than I thought it would be! I took an instant liking to both of the main characters, and I really liked the way they were introduced. It was fun getting to know them and their families before they came together. But speaking of them coming together, I haven't been paying much attention to meet-cutes so far this Blogmas, but I liked that they went with the classic bump/coffee spill.  The main characters had great chemistry and it was really fun watching them together. But for me the relationship that stood out the most was the ...

A Christmas Proposal | Blogmas Day 16

-
Image
  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. ...
