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.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Last King Of Scotland

This is one of my all time favourite movies! The movie is based on the true and brutal events of Dictator Idi Amin's regmin as seen by his personal physician during the 1970's.

Nicholas Garrigan has just graduated as a doctor, and decides to move to Uganda to get away from his father.While working in a mission in the country, he meets the new President Idi Amin after the coup-d'é-tat that overthrow the former government. He is invited to become his personal physician in Kampala and along the years he sees how authoritarian  his friend is.

I loved this movie so much, it is a little brutal so if your not into violence or blood or anything don't watch this, it gets pretty bad near the end. I loved how blunt and close to the truth this movie was.

The acting in this movie was exceptional, James McAvoy and Forest Whitaker are the main characters in the movie, James plays Nicholas and Forest plays Idi Amin.

Be Kind Rewind

Yay! A Jack Black movie! I actually really like this movie, it was so stupidly cheesy it was amazing! Jerry and Mike are two movie store clerks and have to take care of Mike's father's video store. Jerry, Mike's estranged friend, tries to sabotage a power station and ends up almost electrocuting himself and ends up being magnetised. When he shows up at the video store and accidentally erases all of the video tapes, Mike and Jerry come up with a plan to re-film all of the movies on a zero-dollar budget.



This movie is just for a couple stupid giggles, but I thought it was pretty funny, so if you like comedy, and/or Jack Black, then watch this movie!

Light and the Sufferer

So I was looking for hours on the internet for this movie and I couldn't find it anywhere except for on eBay, and it was only $6 so I said hey why not. After half way through the movie I realized why I couldn't find it on the internet. Honestly this movie was horrible. I was so excited because Paul Dano, my current favourite actor, was in it so it ruined it.

It's not SO bad that you can't even sit through the movie, it does have a good story to it, just the acting wasn't all that great and it kept spinning ideas around. So watch it if you like drama, thriller and cheesy.

Napoleon Dynamite

Alright, so I watched this movie when I was 9, and even though I didn't swear when I was 9 my thought was still "wtf?". One night we let my brother choose a movie and this is what he produced.

I rewatched recently and decided that this movie is freaking hilarious, and of course completlely lame.

I don't even wanna talk about what this movie is about, I just want you to go watch it. It just blows your mind how amazing this movie is.

 

 

 

Secret Window

I'm sure alot of people have seen this movie, but I love it so much that I have seen it like 7 times and I will probably watch it more.  I don't love it just because Johnny Depp is in it, but it may be the main reason. It's also a good thriller that I happen to love. Mort Rainey is a writer and now, after a long divorce, lives alone in his and his ex wife's cottage. Things go awry when a stranger knocks on his door saying that Mort stole his story. The stranger keeps threatening messages and signs to Most, at the end you figure out the big twist. I love this movie so much. One of my favourite horror movies.

Ruby Sparks

When I read the description for this movie I honestly wasn't very interested but an actor I was interested in (Paul Dano) was in it so I decided to give it a chance. Ruby Sparks, is the perfect girl, and Calvin Weir-Fields has the power to change her. Calvin was a successful writer, he made an "American- Classic" at the age of 19. He is stubborn, quiet and lonely. When he starts dreaming of this beautiful girl when he's asleep he starts writing about her. He tells his therapist that ultimately he writes about her so he can feel closer to her. One morning when he wakes up to find that Ruby Sparks is living in his house. And she's real. Like really real.

 

 

Calvin realizes that when he writes about Ruby, it comes true. So he tested with "Ruby spoke in fluent french and had no idea" and she was! He vowed to to write or change anything about her.

 

When he finds that Ruby seems like she wants to leave him... he starts writing about her again... to change her.

 

This movie is SOOO cute! I loved it so much, it was romantic, hilarious and dramatic. If you like any of those things (or Paul Dano) PLEASE watch this movie! You will love you!

being flynn

This movie stars Robert De Niro and Paul Dano. I'm not sure if everyone would actually like or appreciate this movie, but I watched it last night and I fell in lover. The movie follows Nick Flynn, (played by Paul Dano) who is in his 20's, who aspires to be a writer. Robert De Niro plays Nick's father, and he hasn't seen Nick in years. The movie is mostly based around their dysfunctional relationship.

Wild Target

Victor Maynard (Bill Nighy) is an assassin, and he's lonely.  He is close to retirement, but gets another job. To kill Rose (Emily Blunt), an amazing con artist. But in a twist of the movie, he does not realize who Rose is when she asks him to be her body Guard. When Tony (Rupert Grint), an estranged homeless guy, happens to wittness Victor murder a guy, ends up tagging along. The trio flee and take into hiding. Tension builds between Rose and Victor, who have feelings for each other.. until Rose finds out that Victor was supposed to kill her. He also takes Tony under his wing to train him in becoming an assassin.

This movie is SO funny and is also a thriller. Oh and it is another British movie. If you like Comedy movies and alot of action I recommened this movie.

Little Miss Sunshine

If you haven't seen this movie, you're missing out on the cutest quirky movie ever!

Olive Hoover has gotten the call that she can compete in the Little Miss Sunshine beauty pageant.
 The family is extremely eccentric. Olive is an excited little girl, Dwayne, her brother, has vowed not to speak, their grandpa is addicted to herion, their uncle that tried to kill himself, their father is bankrupt and their mother is divorced.

The family decided that they will travel to Redondo Beach California, from Albquerque, New Mexico.

The Family has many set backs, such as the clutch in their VW van breaking and having to push the van and jump in to get it going. And the family suffers set backs and they realize they need each other for support

Little Miss Sunshine is funny and brings in dark humor sometimes, all in all its a cute, funny and family friendly movie.

Nick Of Time

If you are into movies full of suspense then this is the movie for you. Nick Of Time is about a man who is forced to kill a politican, that or his young daughter will be killed. Johnny Depp plays Gene Watson, the man the two bad guys have choosen to kill the politican. Gene Watson and his daughter were getting of the train and getting ready to drop his daughter off at her mother's when he is picked in the crowd. Gene has a choice, kill or have his daughter killed.

This movie really keeps you on the edge of your seat.

The Escapist

The title basically tells the movie. Brian Cox plays Frank Perry, who has been sentenced 14 years without parole. When he finds his daughter has become ill he decides he needs to make things right with her and makes a plan to escape the prison. He gathers up a band of eccentric misfits whom all have different qualities to get them out.



One of the escapist is played by Joseph Fiennes (the man I am gunna marry) he plays Lenny Drake.


Most of the movie takes place in the tunnels and sewer system of london. One thing I love about the movie that gives it the mood is the fact that there is very little speaking in the entire movie.

Joesph Fiennes----->

The Disappeared

Another Harry Potter star! Tom Felton, who plays Draco Malfoy is not a main character though! This movie is slow and dark and of course another Brit movie. Matthew Ryan had one job, to look after his little brother Tom. Tom has been disappeared for a while now and Matthew is guilty and trying to keep his sanity together. Everywhere he looks all he can see (or be reminded of) is Tom. As hard as Matthew tries his past keeps coming back to haunt.

Demons Never Die

Alright, so this movie is super dark and very morbid, but it ended up being suspenseful and very good. 8 teenagers who all hate their live and can't stand it anymore decide to make a pact to commit suicide together when they find out that their friend had.. "killed" them self. One character is really obsessed with the whole plan and starts planning like a mad man and won't let it go, even when the other 7 decide that when they are together they're messed up lives aren't so bad. They started to get to know each other better and decided to stay alive. Once they all decided and promised they wouldn't kill themselves, some of their friends end up dead... but not by their own hand...



I love this movie, it's suspenseful, like I said. It is a good tame horror movie.

These are the 8 friends.

CherryBomb

Ch-Ch-Ch-Ch-Cherry Bomb!

Another British movie! Cherrybomb, with Robert Sheehan and Ruper Grint. Almost your typical movie, Boy meets girl, best guy friend also wants the girl, but girl teases both of them. This movie was creative and had very dark humour, but I loved it. Besides the movie being really good the one this that I really loved about this movie was the soundtrack, it was very unique and gave the movie a good mood and you knew what to feel which each track, as cheesy as that sounds.

I found this movie by just searching what movies Rupert Grint has been in and it just sounded interesting to me, and lone behold I loved it

Misfits

Sooo. I'm going to talk about another tv show...sorry! This one is my FAVOURITE. But I DO NOT recommend it to everyone. There is tons of swearing and sexuality. It's also a British show.This show is so funny though if you don't mind those. It also has one of my favourite Actors in it, Robert Sheehan. The show is about 5 teenagers doing community service and while they are doing on of their daily jobs, a strange storm rolls in and the kids get struck by lightning which ends up giving them super powers. One has the power to read minds, one can change the future, one can turn invisible, one can make anyone lust after her when being touched and one is immortal.
