Oh boy. This is going to be a long entry.
First off, movies! Let's start with movies.
I saw Frozen, The secret life of walter mitty, The Wolf of Wall Street, American Hustle...
ok...Mitty.
Let's say that this film had the potential to be a great and interesting story. But there was something missing, certain plot points that didn't connect etc etc. Many things made the viewer very confused and in consequence confused about the point of the whole movie. I mean I know it's nice to have dreams but more important to live it out....but him living out the dream had no definitive meaning to his own life in the end...I don't think.
Now Frozen is very popular, and for some part I understand why. But the singing. Why is Flynn rider the only person to question why there was always people randomly singing? I just wish there was less and more to the point of the plot. But it was a nice kiddie movie.
Wolf. Wow. I don't even know. It was hilarious. A lot of nudity and fornicating. But overall a very nice film.
Hustle was pretty good. Excellent acting, nice plot twist, and beautiful picture.
SHOWS!
Just started BSG (Battlestar Galactica). Pretty good, as long as you know there there is a mini series before the actual series and if you don't watch that you will get extremely confused. Also started 30 Rock and Parks and Rec late. Oops.
Um. Here is a sad and unfortunate list of shows that I have given up watching. Teen Wolf (although to be fair I only watched it for the attractive males. But the holes in the plots and the strangeness of the show and script was eventually too much for me and I can't nope). Vampire Diaries (I don't know. It just got really weird like the writers started writing in weird stories that make no sense and don't fit and I don't understand what's happening anymore and I don't like it when I'm confused. Carrie Diaries (I hate whiny teenage girls who can get a job but not her own shit together). And sadly, Doctor Who. This complaint is going to be pretty long and I think also offensive. I'm not a fan of Moffat show running Doctor Who. I'm not a fan of Matt Smith. And lastly, I'm not a fan of the overcomplicated story arcs. No no no no no. What with the marriage and time child and my god it's too much for me. Matt Smith is a good actor, but he tries too hard to be funny and ends up portraying the doctor as a goofy oaf who makes mistakes and fails needing other people to save him. Steven Moffat writes very compelling stories, but they lack connection to one another, and they lack a deeper meaning and fail to connect personally with the audience and tug at the heart strings. You never really grow to like any of the characters per say. Although they are tolerable, they can be annoying and frustrating at times. The episodes aren't ones that you want to watch over and over. At the time they have interesting concepts embedded in them, but at the same time they're concepts that you don't think much about afterwards. David Tennant portrayed the doctor with depth, a skill only he completely mastered. And RTD slipped into the scripts human problems buried within the bigger issue. His episodes made us think. About morals, what it means to be human, and so on. It was lovely and I miss it terribly. The new Who just doesn't pull me in that much. And I really am sad that I won't be watching anymore.

But I do like my comedies and Modern Fam, New Girl continue to impress. Might go and pick up a few more comedies and maybe some dramas. Sherlock is amazing as ever, searched for online versions every Sunday. Oh Benedict.
