American Idol 2025 Thoughts: Day 1

 


American Idol has officially reached its live shows so that means it's time to start the commentaries. For those of you who didn't track these last year, here's an explanation; I will be saying my thoughts on the contestants and their performances. In typical 'me' fashion, I will rank each performance to #1. But unlike my normal lists, this will be from worst to best. This will be starting the following week as today is just an introduction.


Our Top 24 has been chosen and they are as follows;



   Canaan James Hill (Platinum)            Gabby Simone

 Zaylie Windsor                        Mattie Pruitt

 Thunderstorm Artis                 Drew Ryn

 Che                                                Penny Samar

 Grayson Torrence              MKY

 Josh King                          Amanda Barise 

 Victor Solomon                           Kyana Fanene

 Slater Nalley                              Baylee Littrell

 John Foster                        Filo (Platinum)

 Kolbi Jordan (Platinum)     Isaiah Misailegalu

 Olivier Bergeron                         Desmond Roberts

 Jamal Roberts        Breanna Nix



Here's a division of where I stand on these contestants in the form of Loves, Likes, and Meh/I Don't Cares;


Loves:

Canaan- can SANG his butt off and loves God with no shame
Amanda- won me over during Hollywood Week
Baylee- also won me over. Has NOTHING to do with his dad
Jamal- also won me over 


Likes:

Gabby- talented, though slightly annoying
Drew- I like her voice
Che- nice voice
Josh- awkward but endearing 
Victor- low range is impressive
Filo- I understand why he got the platinum
Kolbi- talented but has bad habits and is the weakest of the platinum trio
Isaiah- nice voice
Desmond- SUPER HIGH range, but also developed bad habits
Breanna- she's growing on me


Meh/I Don't Care:

Zaylie- she's fine, that's it
Mattie- kind of boring
Thunderstorm- he seems like a nice guy though
Penny- be careful with your facial expressions
Grayson- she's fine, that's it
MKY- a little bit too cheesy for me
Kyana- also boring but more memorable than Mattie
Slater- not impressed, but sweet kid
John- again, boring
Olivier- our French connection


Oldest Contestant- Thunderstorm (29)
Youngest Contestant- Mattie (15)
Best Girl- Amanda
Best Boy- Canaan
Favorite Contestant- Canaan

Starting next week, I will be ranking each performance from worst to best. If a song I feel uncomfortable with is covered, I will skip the ranking and just say the best and worst performance. Once people start going home, they will not be included in the ranking.

Deadpool: Marvel's Favorite Idiot

  Deadpool & Wolverine was probably the most anticipated movie of the year. With Disney taking over Fox and Deadpool joining the MCU , the time has finally come for the finishing result. Wade Wilson (portrayed of course by Ryan Reynolds) is offered to be taken out of his dimension in favor of the MCU. The only problem is his dimension is in the process of disintegration after the evens of Logan (😢) and Tom Wambsgans- I mean Mr. Paradox (Matthew Macfadyen) decides to end its misery and destroy it instead of waiting for the inevitable. Obviously this doesn't sit well with Wade, so he turns to a more incompetent version of Wolverine (one deemed the "worst" Wolverine) to help save his dimension.  This movie was exactly what a Deadpool movie needs to be, stupid as HELL. Deadpool remains an idiot and his dynamic with Wolverine was very well paced. Reynolds and Hugh Jackman's chemistry was very good and surprisingly very balanced. Both characters had their fair-sh...

First Day Of 2024/2025 Awards Race

  It is about that time of year again where Hollywood gives out its most prestigious awards to most of the time the least deserving. But that doesn't mean I'm not gonna pay attention like always. But this year we will be shaking things up a little. Allow me to explain; Here's How This Works: Each year, I will have a target subject I'm rooting for this season. When the nominations for each award show are announced, I will do a small commentary on whether or not the subject has a chance of winning. However, this year instead of focusing on just the target, I will also be focusing on those I think are frontrunners in different categories for the season as a whole, whether I'm rooting for them or not.  I will most likely say a last minute thought the day before the award show. I will be tracking down all the way up to the big dogs: THE OSCARS. The Awards: We will be focusing on 5 awards; -The Golden Globes -The BAFTA's -The Critics Choice -The SAG Awards and Of Cour...
