June Favourites! | 2015

Hey Guys x

First of all, sorry I didn't post on Friday. I was at my prom and didn't get home until 2 in the morning! But I'm going to do a whole post on my prom experience tomorrow!

Anyway, it's that time of the month again where I show you everything that I've been completely loving!

I hope some of my favourites become favourites of yours too!

Favourite Movie: Jurassic World


The last post that I did was actually a review of this film, so you can click here to see that! But I thought this film was completely amazing! Without a doubt the best film I've seen this year, and I've seen a lot of films! You don't have to see the other Jurassic Park movies to see this, which was great for me as I can't really remember them well! Everyone needs to go and see this movie!

Favourite TV Show: The Big Bang Theory


Because I've finished school, I've had a lot of free time on my hands. So over 2 days last week, I watched the whole of the latest season of this show, and completely loved every episode! I cried at least once or twice, could not stop laughing, and I'm very tempted this week to just watch all of the episodes again!

Favourite Song: Flying Without Wings


I know that this song is really really old, but I heard it in 2008 and since then, it has been one of my favourite songs ever! I've been listening to it a lot more in the last few weeks and really re-discovering the love that I had for it when I first heard it. If you've never heard it, you need to!

Favourite YouTuber: Jim Chapman


When I was revising, I would allow myself to watch one video every so often as a little break from all of the work that I needed to do. I would always go to Jim Chapman's daily vlog channel. A lot of YouTubers daily vlog, but I don't know what it is, Jim just really interests me. I like seeing all of the things that he does, and I like the fact that he's not always talking about secret meetings or secret projects (I mean, he does do them sometimes, but not nearly as much as others!), and I just think that, with him, what you see is what you get, which is nice.

Favourite Game: X Factor


As I said, I've been home a lot with not a lot to do! So I found this game the other day and I have been obsessed! It's basically a game where you plus a microphone into your wii and you sing from a choice of songs. But if you play in 'Career' mode, you play as if you have just entered the X Factor. You go from the auditions and try to get as far as possible against other contestants, while receiving the judges good and bad comments along the way. I think this game is a really good idea and it literally lasts for a few hours so it keeps boredom at bay!

Favourite Music Artist: GLEE


I have been re-watching old glee episodes with the original cast and I just think their voices are amazing. They chose really good songs to cover and some of them sound better than the original singers, which is epic!

Favourite Celebrity: Chris Pratt


Ever since I saw Jurassic World I have been completely obsessed with Chris Pratt! I mean, he's an incredible actor, which I've also seen in 'Guardians Of The Galaxy', but also, if you watch interviews with him on youtube, he's a really nice person and he's so funny! Not to mention he's the perfect husband and father! He's the whole package. And, I just have to say that he's so so gorgeous (because I couldn't finish this without complimenting his looks!).

Favourite YouTube Video: Stuff Your Mouth (With Connor Franta)

This is Tanya Burr video and it is one of her funniest videos ever! The challenge is to stuff your mouth with marshmallows and describe a YouTuber to the other person. It is designed to be funny and these two are just the perfect people to do this!

Thank you for reading.

Comment below some of your June Favourites!

Keep Smiling - Lou xx

Wonka | Film Review

-
Image
Young Willy Wonka (Timothée Chalamet) tries to follow his dreams to become a respected chocolatier, despite opposition at every turn . This film was never particularly high on my 'to-watch' list, but it was always on my radar, so I'm glad I've finally seen it. I liked this movie a lot more than I thought I would, but I still definitely had problems with it! For a start, while I love the fact that it was a musical, I didn't actually like any of the actual songs. None of them really stood out (except the one that's already known) and having only seen the film yesterday, I can't remember any of them. In fact, while the songs didn't hurt the film, I also don't feel like they were completely necessary. I would have liked the film the same amount if it hadn't been a musical. Wonka is a really charming character, and Chalamet plays him really well. In fact, the entire cast is great - definitely the best thing about the film by a mile. The relationship b

Miller's Girl | Film Review

A creative writing assignment complicates the relationship between a teacher (Martin Freeman) and his student (Jenna Ortega). I heard about this film maybe once and remember being interested in it, but then I never heard anything about it again. So when I saw it was available to rent/buy on Prime Video, I decided to give it a shot.  I don't know what to make of this one. I didn't hate it, but there wasn't a lot to like. The only thing I did like was that Martin Freeman and Jenna Ortega worked really well together and had good chemistry. I'd love to see them work together again, in a film with a better plot and a less weird (platonic) relationship. The characters are written really weirdly. There were many moments when they said things that were just so unbelievable, especially Jenna Ortega's character, Cairo. Another odd aspect of the film was the tone - I could never tell if things were supposed to feel sinister or not because the film couldn't decide how it wa

American Psycho | 100 Movies Bucket List

This one was a re-watch. I'd seen this film once before watching it for the Bucket List. My memories of it weren't wholly positive - I didn't love the first watch, and while I didn't hate it, it wasn't a film that I was itching to watch again. Though saying that, I knew that I probably would watch it again eventually, because I knew how much of a classic it was. Like a lot of films I've watched for the Bucket List, I liked it more this time around than I did the first time, though I still didn't love it as much as I wanted to. But that being said, I did really enjoy it. The writing was great and Christian Bale was amazing in the role, as were the supporting actors. For me, though, the most iconic thing about this movie is its soundtrack. The songs used are amazing and fit the movie so well. They're used in such a unique, original way, that it feels like this alone makes the movie a classic. The film is really well made, and even though I don't love i

My Problem With '8 Simple Rules'

Hey Guys x Today's post might come out as more of a rant, which I'm OK with because I haven't ranted about something in a while! Last year, I started watching the show '8 Simple Rules' when it started playing on Comedy Central. It originally came on between 2002 and 2005 but I didn't watch it when it was first on. Anyway, I really got into it. There were only three seasons, so it was over before I wanted it to be. And I loved this show, and I still love it. Comedy Central doesn't play it anymore but if it did I would dive right back into it because I love a good sitcom. However, I have a major gripe with a plotline of the show, that got more prominent in season 2/3. Let me just explain the characters a bit, so you know who I'm taking about in case you never watched it. The show revolves around a family, Paul and Cate Hennessy, and their children Bridget, Kerry and Rory. In the second season, the father in the show died (due

Holding Grudges

-

Hey Guys x First of all, this post is 3 days late and I'm really sorry about that. I had half of it written on Wednesday evening when everything went wrong and my laptop stopped working. Thankfully, the first half of this post saved so I can just continue now! Second of all, thanks for the nice comments on my 'Sefie-shy' post, you all really helped and I enjoyed seeing what you had to say. If you haven't seen it, click here ! But right now, I want to talk about grudges. Some of us don't hold grudges. Sure you get into arguments or someone insults you, but when everything is done and the apologies have been dealt, you can easily forget everything that happened and move on, still with this person by your side. I can't do this. If someone insults me or I get into an argument with someone, I can't just let it go. And I don't go as far as plotting their death, but to be honest, I'm not far off! And not only do I mean those huge arguments w
