2 Broke Girl$

I kind of started watching this when it first came out and I didn't think to much of it. But in the summer I got sick and got the first season and watched it in about 3 days, and I fell in love and try to never miss an episode every Monday night. And just in case I always have it set up to record on my PVR. The show is..well about two broke girls who have a dream of owning a cupcake business together. There are a couple awesome characters :

Max - Max is my absolute favourite! She reminds me of me.. cold and heartless. She has been through lots of hardships in her life and ended up working at a small diner where no one ever tips her properly. Played by Kat Dennings.



Earl - Is a hippy type kind of guy who sits by the door at the diner and takes care of the cash, sometimes he slips in a little extra for tips for Max and Caroline. Max has a huge crush on Earl. Played by Garrett Morris

 
 
Caroline-  The famous Caroline Channing used to be super rich and super glam, until her dad scams people and she loses ALL her money, and now shes completely broke. So she bumps into Max, who has always been poor, and they become roommates. Played by Beth Behrs
 
 
 
 
Oleg- Is the creepy, Ukrainian, super horny cook at the Williamsburg diner. He creepy, disturbing and gross, but he's hilarious. Max always teases back, and eventually when Caroline gets used to him starts teasing too. Played by Jonathan Kite
 
 
Sophie- Sophie is the girls' new neighbour above them. She is really rich and polish and just loves Max, she hates Caroline. She helps the girls with their cupcake shop, and has a strange relationship with Oleg. Played by Jennifer Coolidge
 
 
Han- He runs the Williamsburg Diner, and he is always getting teased about his sexuality and his height. He is always trying to be "hip and cool" like other Americans. With the way the Max teases and talks to him, she might as well run the diner. Played by Matthew Moy
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 
I find this show incredibly funny and it's a fun way for people to relate about not having much money. This show is cute, funny and simple, if you like comedy and cupcakes you should probably watch this show. Do it.

Supernatural

Alright so I decided that I'll blog about movies and TV shows that I love.

So Supernatural is one of my all time favourite shows and it always will be. It stars Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles. (And FYI Jensan Ackles and I are going to get married).  The show is about two brothers that get together after years of not seeing each other when their father goes missing on a hunting trip. But not that hunting you would normally do, they fight monsters and things that are in the dark.

When Dean (Jensne Ackles) was 4 and Sam (Jared Padaleki) was just a baby, their mother was mysteriously murder. Their father was determined to find her killer, and after 22 years the same thing happens to Sam's girlfriend, Jess. So Sam decides to try and get revenge and continue fighting evil with Dean to find their dad and find the killer.

The show expands WAY farther than that and it is currently on season 8, and has 7 season out on dvd box sets. This show is filld with drama, action and thrills, I love this show with all my heart and you should probably watch it because I said so.

Oh and I forgot to mention another reason why I love this show, Dean's '67 Chevy Impala. <3

Oblivion Island

This was a really cute movie, it was japanese, I believe, and it was an adaptaion of Alice in Wonderland. When Haruka, the main character, her mother always tells her a story about fox who take things that humans don't find have any more worth or that they just don't care about anymore. After she tells Haruka the story Haruka exclaims she will never lose or forget the importance of the beautiful hand mirror her mother gave her.

Well Haruka gets older and her mother has passed on, and her beautiful hand mirror is packed away in the shed and forgotten. One day when Haruka remembers it she goes to check in her shed when she sees a little fox grabbing her mirror. She runs after the little fox and goes into a completely different world, where everything is made of human's left over treasures and junk.

Haruka meets the little fox named Teo, and learns that Teo is bullied and it's worse now because Teo is having Haruka follow him, and it is a againts their rules to have a human among them!  She also learns that there is an evil ruler and helps Teo take him down! With friends and betrayal this is a good child movie or adult movie, it's super cute.





Ten Inch Hero

This movie is one of those movies that nobody knows about and that I just happened to stumble upon.

Piper, the main character played by Elizabeth Harnois, moves to Santa Cruz to go to the institute of art. When she was 15 she had a baby girl and years later she saw an article about a little girl and she thinks she is her daughter. She applies at a local sandwich shop, and gets to know the staff very well, there is Tish, who is a babe, Jen who is talking to Fuzzy22 online and Priestly. And her new boss Trucker a new hippy who is in love with the shop owner across the street who happens to be a long time hippy.

This movie takes you through the sandwich staff's lives and personal struggles. It's a cute little independent romance movie. I love this  movie so much and I do recommend it especially if you don't like mainstream love stories.

Also my favourite actor, and hottest guy ever is in it, Jensen Ackles!! <3

 
 

Walking Tall

This is a fantastic movie, it's based on a true story too! After serving 8 years in the US army, Chris Vaughn comes home to his town not exactly as it had been when he left it. His dad owned a local mill and he was hoping he could catch a job there. When he finds out that the mill closed down by the local police, he is also informed that a casino has opened up instead. Once he finds out that his nephew has OD from amphetamines that are being sold and trafficed out of the casino, Chris decides to stop the corruption in this hometown. He becomes the new sheriff and takes back his town.

I find this movie was blunt and easy to follow in away that viewers can still believe that it truely happened, instead of huge explosions and awesome gun fights and cars drag racing on the edge of a mountain.

Also Dwayne Johnson is supa yummy. (Oh yeah! He plays Chris Vaughn)



Elf

I am not a fan of Will Farrel. I will make that very clear right now. I don't find him all that funny. BUT in the film Elf  I thinkg he's pretty cute and did a good job acting innocent and childish, but I doubt he had to work hard on acting childish. Plus I think it's a pretty cute holiday movie, maybe I'll make it a holiday tradition?
Zoey Deschanel plays Will's love interesting, even though he acts like a kid and has no idea how the world works, she just thinks its eccentric and cute.

Blood Diamond

This is definitely one of my favourite movies ever! It has Leonardo DiCaprio is in it and does a fabulous job playing Danny Fletcher, a man who has strong survival instincts, has made himself a key player in the business conflicts of diamonds. He meets Solomon Vandy, a fisherman, who's son was captured by men training him to be a child solider. Solomon was then taken and forced to look for diamonds, when he finds an enormous one he asks to go to the bathroom, and digs a hole and hides it in the hole. After meeting Solomon, Danny demands to be taken to the diamond. He also meets Maddy, a report, who he doesn't like at first but then ends up falling for her.


This movie was very graphic at some times, but it definitely got the point across blunt, which is what people need to see sometimes. If child soldiers and child slaves then you probably don't want to watch this. But overall this movie is well written and crafted. The acting was excellent, the soundtrack was beautiful and fit perfectly, and the actors were well picked out. I would give this movie a 10/10 if I gave ratings. I love this movie, if you haven't seen it, please do so.
