Big Releases For October





So another thing that I would like to start doing for the blog is address some of the biggest releases of the month and whether or not I intend on seeing the movies . I will also mostly speak on my prediction of its box-office and critical reception. So this obviously is the first post and I will do these posts monthly. Considering it's October, It should come as no surprise that most of these movies are horror (which I am not a fan of).





The Exorcist: Believer- October 6

I'm pretty sure the first time I saw a trailer for this one was when I saw Oppenheimer with my dad and I've seen promos for this ever since. I have no desire to see this movie as demon possession is not my thing. I do however think that it will do very well in the box-office as it is a sequel to a film that is considered one of the greatest of all time in terms of the horror genre and movies as a whole. The return of Ellen Burstyn, who was in the original Exorcist, will also help with the movie's release. In terms of critical reception, It's probably gonna do good, but obviously critics will immediately compare it to the original. And there are very few times when a sequel or remake outshines the original (repeat: FEW times, not never. Top Gun: Maverick for example was AWESOME!).






 Pet Sematary: Bloodlines- October 6

I have never seen a trailer for this, which might be a bad sign, but I don't know for sure. I also have no desire to see this one for similar reasons with the last one. This one will probably do fine at the box-office, but mainly because as I mentioned earlier, it's October and people will probably want to see horror movies, that and it's a Stephen King movie. This is also part of notable horror franchise, but a prequel to a remake. And what differs this from Exorcist is that the Pet Sematary franchise has always had mixed reception. While the remake is more liked than the original, it's not by that much. So I can't really count this as a factor in the movie possibly succeeding in the box-office.




 Killers Of The Flower Moon- October 20

The first time I saw a trailer for this was when I saw Mission Impossible with my aunt. We both thought it looked pretty good, mainly because it's Martin Scorsese and Leo DiCaprio, which is from what I hear, normally a winning combination. I can only judge by one movie, which is The Departed. While I didn't love it, I understand why it is critically acclaimed and I do believe it is well deserved. Despite this, I'm not too sure I want to see the movie do the slightly political subject matter. That and one of the actresses is a narcissist. Box-office wise, it'll do good because it's DiCaprio and Scorsese. Just not amazing because Scorsese movies aren't known for that. The movie already has a 97% on Rotten Tomatoes, so critical reception won't be a problem. Again, it's DiCaprio and Scorsese.



So that's all the important releases in my opinion. There are probably more, but I don't really care cause it's October. Thanks For Reading. BYEEE!

So.......The Bride😕

So I was completely off-track with The Bride . Did not expect the film to crash and burn as hard as it did with both critics AND the box-office. After getting murdered, a woman by the name of Ida is brought back to life with the intention of being a companion to the oh-so iconic Frankenstein. And together they wreck havoc. Like Wuthering Heights , the movie wasn't terrible but it had a lot of problems. The biggest issue with this film is that it tries way too hard to be edgy and it just doesn't work. It wanted to be this hardcore feminist take on Frankenstein , but it just felt convoluted and slightly underwritten. It had this plotline involving Ida causing some revolution for women and did pretty much nothing with it until the last minute. It was kind of a let down. The best thing about the movie however was the performances and chemistry between Buckley and Christian Bale. I thought they were strangely endearing, and this might be a better love story than Wuthering Heights  (...

Last Minute Music Reviews

  So here are some last minute reviews of songs that I've heard over the past few months that did not reach #1;   Where Is My Husband - Raye This is incredibly fun and strangely catchy. While this is not officially a jazz song, this obviously has jazz influence and it works very well for this song. I will go ahead and admit that this is my introduction to Raya, I have not listened to Oscar Winning Tears . So far, I'm intrigued.    Midnight Sun - Zara Larsson This song is kind of AWESOME. Not only is the production GORGEOUS, but it also has a very nice hook that goes smoothly with Larsson's voice. My sister actually recommended this song to me and I see why. Larsson does currently have a Grammy nomination for this. She's gonna lose, but I'm glad this song got recognized. If my sister see's this, thank you.   How It's Done - Huntrix (From KPop Demon Hunters ) I have been meaning to review this for a while, but I kept getting lazy. Like Golden , this song has g...
