    Unrelated, but I started watching Gilmore Girls at your recommendation and I love it so much. All of the characters are so well-written, and I am so invested in their stories. It's quickly become one of my all time faves. :)

    Have you seen Set It Up on Netflix yet?? It's one of the best straight up rom-coms I've watched in a long time. I already want to watch it again!
    Also just wanted to say that I look forward to these videos every month. Whether it's discovering something new (omg The Bold Type!) or commiserating with you (Deadpool 2 was...eh) it's always a good time :)

    I watched the Alienist and I really liked it too. I really like those shows that try to get inside a murderer's head because they are very interesting and this show especially because of the time period. My favorite character is Sara, Dakota Fanning's character. She is just so intelligent and independent and she has really valuable insight for the team. I just really, really liked her character.

  • @lovisaherou5964
    @lovisaherou5964 6 років тому

    I really love Mamma Mia! (One of my favorite movies of all time.) I also need to see the new one(SO EXITED!!).
    Christine , you really need to see the first one again. This time don't take it serious (in a critics kind of way. Have fun.).
    Which makes me recall, of a memory from 2017 september. I was at a singing camp. At a places that had it's own cinema. Where me and everyone else watched it (the first one.), and it was so fun. We sang along to every single song.
    Which is the way to enjoy it. Singing and with others. Hope you like it this time.

    AHHHHH You should definitely rewatch the first mamma mia movie!! It's one of my favorite movies/musicals, it's such a great feel good movie! Mamma Mia 2 was just AMAZING! I am so so so happy they made it happen. At first I was really skeptical since sequels are often unnecessary but they did such a great job!

    Season 2 of Glow was sooo good, the main romance at the end is amazing. Pain and suffering and confusion does not equal love. Love can be easy and simple too. Only problem I have is I wish Bash had more screen time, his story was so deep and important, but it only had like, 5 scenes

  • @BaileeWalsh
    @BaileeWalsh 6 років тому

    I love the National Treasure movies. Those were favorites as a kid and last year I rewatched them just because I felt like it and they were still really good and interesting. I've been meaning to watch The Alienist, but was interested in reading the book, so I've put it off.
    I just edited my June Favorites video, so that was a refresher on what I loved in June- lots of music stuff, but for movies, shows, and books: The Secret History by Donna Tartt was really good and a new favorite book. I went to your Booksplosion event at the B&N in Orange and said I was reading it, but at that point I hadn't finished it. You said you hadn't heard of it before and were confused as to how it had slipped under your radar since Jesse and Kat knew about the book. Anyway, I also read The Miseducation of Cameron Post and liked that. I thought the plot would only be with her at the conversion camp, but it actually starts earlier, so you see more development which I very much appreciated. There was one scene though that was pretty graphic and very sudden. A little bit more of a warning would have been helpful, but it's also the kind of thing where if it happened in real life it would be shocking just like that, so in that way it seems realistic.
    For shows, I finished Sex and The City which was really enjoyable and I can see myself rewatching it and kind of being a show that I could have on all the time, like Friends is to some people. I watched all the episodes of Sherlock and liked it but I honestly don't understand how it's rated so highly! It was good and if they're making more episodes I'll definitely watch them but I'm not obsessed by any means.
    I watched a lot of movies and I finally started using Letterboxd, so I can just look at my "diary" and see what I watched. I'm working on rewatching all of Wes Anderson's films because I want to do a video or video series going through, talking about them, and ranking them. Wes Anderson is one of my favorite directors. So, I'm watching his films in chronological order and Bottle Rocket surprisingly became a new favorite, The Royal Tenenbaums is still my favorite film of his, and Rushmore and Life Aquatic were still very good and enjoyable. I watched a few Ingmar Bergman films. He is another one of my favorite directors. This year is his 100th birthday/centennial (he's dead though just to clarify that). He's a Swedish director and I'm watching as many films of his this year that I can (as some are unavailable or are hard to get) and I'm watching them in chronological order. It's interesting seeing his work progress as he was developing a style and such. And I also watched some adaptations: The Glass Castle and My Cousin Rachel, both of which I liked but didn't love. Both were interesting though and faithful adaptations in my opinion, as I've read both those books. And my favorite film I saw in June was Love, Simon! I was so emotional and I think it's a great adaptation, especially in terms of YA adaptations, even though they made some changes and I really don't like that they made Leah have a crush on Simon. But I'm hoping they adapt Becky Albertali's other books, even though I haven't read them yet and need to get on that!
    Ok. I didn't mean to write an entire paragraph, but here you go. This is me sharing what I've been reading and watching! :D Also, it was so great going to the Booksplosion event. I'm thankful that you guys do that (and that I live like 20 minutes away) and that I got to meet you guys!

    Hey Christine, something random: some of the writers of national treasure (the Wibberleys) have a daughter, emily wibberley, who recently co-wrote always never yours, which is a really cute, fluffy contemporary about the girl before and a high school theatre production of romeo and juliet and it's so good!

    Also Hannibal is amazing -but I may be a little bias bc I’m studying forensic psychology.
    (The Knick and Hannibal may be a little gruesome- just as a forewarning)
    Ps: right there with you with Westworld and The Alienist
