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.

Venom: The Last Dance | Film Review

-

While on the run, Eddie Brock and Venom (Tom Hardy) are pursued by a dangerous military organisation. But when aliens from Venom's home world come to Earth, the pair have to make a devastating decision that will change their lives forever. I watched the first Venom movie when it came out years ago, didn't really like it that much, and subsequently didn't watch the second. But totally randomly last week I decided to re-watch the first movie, and ended up liking it enough to also watch the second. And as soon as I finished that, I went to the cinema to see this new one. I really liked this film - it was so much better than I thought it was going to be! My favourite thing about this franchise is the relationship between Eddie and Venom, and for me this film was the best version of the characters together. Because, while the comedic moments between the pair are still there, there's a lot more heart in this story than there has been previously, and this is especially evident

Smile 2 | Film Review

-

After a harrowing accident, popstar Skye Riley (Naomi Scott) is putting her life back together and embarking on a world tour. But after witnessing a suicide, she begins to experience strange occurrences - the strangest of which is a smile that seems to follow her wherever she goes...  Having absolutely loved the first film, I was so excited to see where this next one would take the storyline, and it seemed really promising! But my high expectations were probably why I ended up being so disappointed with the final result. I know that this is definitely an unpopular opinion, but I didn't really like this sequel. However, I did like how it began. It directly connects itself to the first film in a really interesting way, and that was fun to watch. Then it kind of went downhill. For me personally, I didn't love the character of Skye Riley. I didn't really feel connected to her, and it never felt like the film allowed me to get to know her that well. So as much as the events are

Book Review #138: Kill For Me, Kill For You by Steve Cavanagh

-

  After meeting by chance one evening, Amanda and Wendy realise they have something in common - they are both experiencing grief and want to make the men who destroyed their families pay. Knowing they can never exact the revenge they crave, they come up with an idea: if you kill for me, I'll kill for you... The premise of the book is deliberately vague, but I think the main idea of it is enough to give you a flavour of what the story is about. I have mixed feelings about this book. There's so many things about it that I really loved, but there are also a few things that I could have done without. To start off, the first two chapters are absolutely riveting. I feel like it took no time at all to bond and connect with the characters. Not only are the chapters exciting, but they're also really visceral. You feel like you're living in the scenes with the characters. It would have been amazing if the whole book had stayed like this. The story is told from two points of view,

Lagaan | 100 Movies Bucket List

-

Of all the movies I watched for the bucket list, this one was without a doubt the hardest to track down. Thankfully I managed to find it but it was looking impossible for a while! I ended up watching a version that didn't include the musical numbers, so I had to listen to the soundtrack separately, which felt really weird. But at the same time, I don't feel like anything was missing from the story by not having the songs in it. I'd never heard of the film before, but an almost 4-hour long movie about cricket wasn't exactly enticing. Thankfully the film is a lot more interesting than it sounds! There's a lot of underlying themes, and even when the scenes are about cricket, the game isn't really the most important thing. It was really fun spending time with these characters and seeing them interact. The one thing I didn't expect from this film was for it to be so uplifting. Even though it's not entirely sunshine and rainbows, you fall into step with this g

City of God | 100 Movies Bucket List

-
Image
At this point in the bucket list we start getting to the films that are a bit harder to find. I had never heard of this film before seeing it on the list, and I didn't look it up before watching it (beyond searching for a platform to watch it on), so I had no idea what it was about. Sometimes when I'm watching the bucket list movies I write a couple of little notes to remind myself how I felt about it, as I don't give them full reviews. For this one, the only thing I wrote was 'harrowing' and I think that describes it well. The film doesn't shy away from anything troubling or uncomfortable, and it doesn't try to sugar-coat what the characters are going through, or what their lives were like. Apparently it's loosely based on true events and that feels really evident. Because of that, these characters feel extremely authentic. Whether you're familiar with their lives or not, you empathise and sympathise with them because it feels like you're watchi
