Oh 80 for Brady, my mom has mentioned that to me as well  you 2 actually have really similar taste nnn, at least in comedies. I've heard that it's cute but I fear it's not the type of movie I'd enjoy  It's nice to see at least one person watched Bird Box Barcelona, didn't know it existed until days ago and I was baffled that it made no noise after the OG did so well. Asteroid City panned, oop!

 

It's true, it's true. :jimin: Yeah I've seen some people's thoughts on The Blackening and it seems like most just think it's okay/cute but it should still be enjoyable enough. I'll likely save it for my October lineup now that I think about it.

I thought it was pretty funny and a good time! Your mom and I should hang out I fear.  Bird Box Barcelona surprised me. It actually took a different approach than the first movie, and I really appreciated the perspective it gave me to other sides of things (I don't want to spoil).

 

It'd be a good October/Halloween movie! It's not too scary either, just an entertaining watch.

Every clip I've seen from The Flash has been... wild. Just wild.  Barbie topping your list, as expected  Although I'm surprised to see its score not be a little higher. Maybe with a 2nd viewing? Meanwhile I still need to see it but I'm waiting for a digital release.

And interesting. It would be okay if you did, I don't plan on watching it

 

Yes, a horror (or horror-comedy) that isn't too scary or gory is always a requirement of mine

Oops, I usually reply to this before I do my list of the week. 

 

All the bad clips are from the first half, honestly.  Barbie didn't have an oomph to get it to 90 for me, but it was pretty close! Can't wait for you to see it. 

 

If you're ever bored, it's not a terrible movie. 

 

It's definitely a slasher, but it doesn't lay into it like Scream or anything since it's more of a comedy movie. I think you'd be good!

[Remmy]

As we discussed before, Jury Duty is on my (short) list of shows to get to  Didn't have this new Tori Kelly EP on my radar at all until some people hyped it up and I checked out the snippets. It sounds pretty good.  Now that's on my (long) list of albums/EPs to check out kiiii.

Hmmm  Oop! Interesting

 

I haven't even seen the first one so  and i was able to avoid it when everyone was going wild during release week

 

Yeah that's what I expected  Period. I'd be fine even if it was similar to Sceram since that series isn't scary to me at all.

Both Jury Duty and Tori's EP I recommend. 

 

It's not a "must see" so. 

 

That means you're good to see it methinks.

[JGibson]

Me, Myself, and Time 

[Remmy]

Insidious  Yeah that's the type of horror I can't handle nnn. I was thinking Me, Myself and Time was a newer Demi song I somehow missed but it's actually from Sonny  Never heard it before. It might've been something I would've enjoyed back in the day, not so sure about it now though. At least she snapped on the theme song.

 

Quote

Tori's EP I recommend.

Will be getting to it eventually  and "cut" might enter my countdown next week

It didn't seem too bad to me on that front.   I don't know why I've been in the mood for that song, but it was hitting all the right spots for me at the time.

 

As it deserves!

Keke x2  Her album could've been a bit stronger, although you picked 2 great standouts from it. Especially my favorite track, Love Language

  Her singing voice is great, so it elevates all the songs.

 

Deserving debut. Saw Usher might be debuting in yours as well.

2. I Got It Bad by Addison Rae

[Topmaster 2]

Survivor is a really long show

[Remmy]

Oop, no movies for once  Nearly the same for me, last one I watched was on the 19th. I think Addison's music is a bit overhyped by the gays so far but I Got It Bad is & always has been a bop  Same for it could've been u.

It will not be  It's a cute song but I was hoping for something a little stronger, also I wanted Keke on it & not just in the music video.

I haven't listened to the EP yet. I Got It Bad was the only song I've heard of hers.  But yes, it is a bop.

 

Not gonna lie, I listened to the song hoping Keke was on it and was disappointed she wasn't. I still found it to be fun and cute, and the video elevated it for me.

2. Single Soon by Selena Gomez

[Staryu]

Survivor  watching some key earlier seasons (like from 1-15 era) then watch 16/20 for some classic reality tv 

[JGibson]

bad idea right?

[Remmy]

There's the mysterious Vacation Friends movie I mentioned recently  Still surprised I never heard of the first one but saw several adds for its sequel. Single Soon unfortunately didn't do it for me  but bad idea right? mmm, so good. Really hope she keeps it up with this album because I couldn't get into SOUR (aside from "brutal".)

The 4th track is also really nice The rest is meh... unless your version has Obsessed at the end, which I don't enjoy at all.

It's so binge-worthy. I've been on a streak watching when I wasn't sick.

The second movie was a good time, but it's hard to top the first movie for me. It was very enjoyable! What'd you think of the album?

 

Decided to listen to the EP, and it was fine.  Not amazing or anything of note.
