I have seen Incredibles...(HOW DID I MISS THIS????)<br /><br />I have seen Incredibles 2 (liked it better than the original), and Napoleon Dynamite.

(Sorry about that.) Now I just want to say, I SO ENJOY YOUR MOVIE REVIEWS! They're so much fun to read! <br /><br /><i>Good-bye Christopher Robin</i> is definitely on my to-watch list. Also the other Christopher Robin movie that just came out. That one sounds really good, too.

I'm never really a huge fan of stories in which it appears that "the bad guys" have entirely triumphed, so I didn't like the aftertaste. But . . . there's a part two, yes? And it's Marvel, so WHO KNOWS what will happen. ;) ;) And that does kind of make sense. If it delivered what you were expecting, and delivered it well, then there's no reason for it to have been unsatisfying, right? (Ack, poor Wanda. That was rough. :( )<br /><br />Napoleon Dynamite is SO FUNNY. Such a stupid kind of humor, but still and yet. ;) And, as I'm sure you've surmised, it is alllllllll the quotable. <br />Oliviahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03546655886492251059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7624597359174394097.post-1203811376016246742018-08-02T20:40:02.683-04:002018-08-02T20:40:02.683-04:00I never saw this post!!! *is shocked at self* No...I never saw this post!!! *is shocked at self* Now I must Proceed to Comment. :D <br /><br />Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, <i>Infinity War</i>. Seriously adored that movie. It was SO SAD, but like, I went into it expecting Sadness, and it delivered. In an odd way, I guess you could say I found it . . . satisfying?? (Also: Wanda + Vision are my precious children forever and ever. <3) <br /><br />Y'know, I've been wanting to see Napoleon Dynamite!

(Haha, well, I can't say I'm also a fan of that in general . . . I think I also just wasn't satisfied with the <i>reasons</i> why they didn't end up together. Like the why just seemed kind of weak to me?? But hey, maybe they just genuinely weren't well-suited for each other, eh?)<br /><br />Haha, I liked it, too -- I was just surprised that I did because I guess I'd "heard things" (or thought I'd heard things) about it, and that kind of "high-octane" action/thriller isn't typically my genre. I enjoyed it a lot though! But -- good gracious, my love, you first saw it at that tender age?? But . . . but the intensity, my dear, the intensity!! Haha. It just wouldn't have been a good movie for ME to watch at that age, but if it worked for you, go for it! ;D Oliviahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03546655886492251059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7624597359174394097.post-953043397307512372018-07-19T00:02:02.948-04:002018-07-19T00:02:02.948-04:00Thanks, Sarah!

I'd seen some clips before, too, but we saw a full trailer for CR in theaters for that, too. I hope your sister enjoys it come August. :D I get the whole "going in cold turkey" thing! I've learned that I have to generally wait to read friends' reviews of, say, books until after I've read them for myself, because otherwise my friends' opinions on the story can color MY opinion on the story.)<br /><br />Things are pretty well, thanks - how about for you, my friend?

I wanna see Goodbye Christopher Robin!

I was pretty disappointed with Incredibles 2. <br /><br />I really wanna see The light between Oceans. A lot.<br /><br />The man who invented christmas was an intersting movie.

I loved that film SOOO much and just can't get enough of it. It's definitely my favorite Marvel movie thus far--so fun, hilarious, and exciting. Also YES, Loki is just plain amazing in this movie (as per usual)!! Gosh, I just love him so much. (The "get help" scene is probably my fave. <3)<br /><br />Great post, Olivia!Mollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03431350009957158218noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7624597359174394097.post-28514164809790509002018-07-10T12:36:01.319-04:002018-07-10T12:36:01.319-04:00Well said on your review of "A United Kingdom...Well said on your review of "A United Kingdom". Not a favorite, but still good. :)<br /><br />I feel the same way about the Marvel movies. I have my own standard in my head for which ones I watch and which ones I skip but I'm invested in the characters. (And Loki, he's probably the only "bad buy" I've more than "liked". Oh dear. At least I'm not alone. ;))<br /><br />Okay, I have to admit, I kind of like the "creepy-crazy-wild-eyed" impression the trailer gave of "The Man Who Invented Christmas". Mostly because I felt like I could relate to that side of the writing process. Who knows, maybe that means I'm creepy-crazy-wild-eyed too. Hehehe.<br /><br />I love these posts, Olivia!!

Goodbye Ch...I adore basically all these movies. XD<br /><br />Goodbye Christopher Robin had me crying from beginning to end. I was so dehydrated afterwards. XD Lala Land is one that, oddly enough, I loved. It wasn't necessarily the story itself that I love, but the fact that all of it together enchanted me (plus, I am a fan of whenever the characters don't end up together at the end of the film). <br /><br />Aw, I love Speed! It's a family classic. I first saw it when I was 8 or 9 and goodness gracious I was enthralled. I feel like it's a cotton candy movie.

I'm very excited for Christopher Robin coming out in August too. When my family and I went to see Incredibles 2 (which was pretty incredible XP), we saw the full trailer for CR.
