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!

The Usual Suspects | 100 Movies Bucket List

  This is the second movie for the bucket list that I forgot to write a post for! I saw this back in May so my memory might be a bit rusty, but it was a re-watch so I'm pretty clear on the plot and how I feel about it. I liked this movie. I probably liked it the same amount this time that I did on my first watch. It's a great story, told in a really interesting way. And while I probably didn't find it completely interesting the whole way through, it was worth it to get to the twist. For me, a plot twist is such an underrated device. I love them so much I actively seek them out in both movies and books. A good plot twist can make an otherwise bad movie re-watch-worthy. There are a few twisty movies on the bucket list, and this one has one of the best twists. Even if you don't like the movie as a whole, the twist makes everything so much more interesting. Another thing the twist does is make you want to watch the film all over again. I saw it months ago now, and I really

The Good, the Bad and the Ugly | 100 Movies Bucket List

Next on the list was 'The Good, the Bad and the Ugly'. This isn't one I was particularly looking forward to.  I've never been a huge fan of Westerns, so watching what is probably the most famous Western for 2 and a half hours wasn't high on my to-do list.  But because of that, it was actually a much more intriguing watch than I thought it would be. It took me quite a while to really get into it, but once I got the plot and focused on it, I found the story was a great one. What made it great for me more than anything was the characters. I really enjoyed watching them interact. And as someone who had only seen Clint Eastwood in 'The Bridges of Madison County' and 'Million Dollar Baby' before this, I definitely gained a newfound respect for him as an actor. Whenever I think of Westerns, my mind instantly goes to 'Back to the Future 3', even though the actual movies aren't like this in any way. But this movie was the first to directly remind

Woman of the Hour | Film Review

  Amidst a series of murders in LA, aspiring actress Cheryl (Anna Kendrick) crosses paths with a serial killer (Daniel Zovatto) on a dating show. I was really excited to see this film as soon as I saw the trailer. Even in that short space of time it got across a tense, sinister atmosphere that made the film seem like a really interesting watch, especially being a true story. Thankfully I loved the film, and the atmosphere it created was part of the reason why. From the first scene we understand the tone and can already kind of guess how the rest of the film will feel. The tension was created expertly. There were multiple times while watching the film where I was holding my breath without realising, and this feeling didn't go away until the film was over. In the last 30 minutes particularly, I actually had to pause the film to remind myself to breathe because it was that intense. Those 30 minutes were so well written and crafted - I don't think I've even seen a full-on horro

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

Brothers | Film Review

While attempting to go straight, former criminal Moke's (Josh Brolin) efforts are derailed when he is reunited with his twin brother Jady (Peter Dinklage), who convinces him to join a cross-country road-trip to retrieve the score of a lifetime. I remember seeing the trailer for this a few months ago and being surprised by the actors involved, because no one seemed to be anticipating its release at all. I wasn't particularly interested in the plot, but as a fan of a few of the actors in it, I wanted to see it. And after watching the film, I understand why no one was really talking about it. But let's start with the good things! The characters are great. Jady and Moke are fun characters to spend time with, and the actors had great chemistry. If nothing else in the film felt realistic, their brotherly banter worked. At the beginning, it was funnier than I expected it to be. This unfortunately didn't last and the film got less and less funny as it went on, but for a while t
