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

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

-
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. ...

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....
