Hustle, 2022 - ★★★★★

Just Perfect. I LOVE sports movies, especially basketball movies, ESPECIALLY when real players are in it!!! (Yes, I loved KD's 2012 movie Thunderstruck) I watched Hustle because I love Anthony Edwards, and yeah, he was great, but I had no clue the amazing movie I was signing up for, I just love me some Ant-man! Adam Sandler's portrayal of Stanley Sugerman was amazing. I prefer seeing him in more serious roles like this and Uncut Gems versus his comedy heyday in the 2000s. He's a really good actor, and he demonstrates it in movies like this. Juancho Hernangomez did a phenomenal job as Bo Cruz. It's crazy that this is his acting debut. I'm definitely putting him up there with Ant-man now for favorite player. Anthony Edwards is number one, and Hernangomez is number two. I loved how a LOT of basketball players were in the movie and it didn't feel busy, just natural. So many of the hottest basketball players from different generations, teams, leagues, and countries, and they all fit seamlessly. Usually, when stars of any kind are put together in one production it feels like a publicity move, but not in Hustle. In Hustle, everyone's presence made perfect sense. The cinematography of this movie was good. When making a sports movie, you have to have a certain level of cinematography because sports are fast, especially basketball, but this movie went above and beyond. The training segment around the middle of the movie was the best montage I've ever seen. It was masterfully shot and edited. I just came to see my favorite basketball player act, but I ended up watching one of the best movies of the year (in MY opinion) P.S. Dear Hollywood, get Anthony Edwards and Juancho Hernangomez in more movies! - Letterboxd

I love the 80s

The title is self explanatory. I love the music, the style, and the culture. I even love that crack was really hot in the 80s. My other favorite decades are the 2000s and 1990s. Everything was just so freaking cool. Part of the 2000s appreciation is simply that I was born in 2005 so a lot of formative memories of mine happened in the 2000s. We did a decades project in AP US History so I chose the 80s. I’m really proud of my slideshow . My favorite thing about the 80s is mainly the music. I love New Edition and Madonna. Michael Jackson is awesome too but I grew up with him so he’s kind of like old news. I don’t really know how to say it nice. Meanwhile I started to listen to Madonna by myself and the same for New Edition. I only knew Candy Girl, Cool it Now, and If It Isn’t Love before I watched the BET biopic last December and became obsessed. I really like the general sound of music in the 80s. The production was different, and ever since taking Keyboarding in the last quarter of my s...

The Merits of Self-Slay

Yesterday, my mom and I braided my hair. It was a lot of work (not too much) but it’s very cute. Totally worth it! This has motivated me to start doing my own hair. After I take these braids out, I’m gonna do some passion twists. My friend Cassidy always does her hair and it is always super slay. I love that girl! I think she is so so SO cool. I wanted to post this yesterday but I was on the Blogger Plus app which sucks, so I just made a title then drafted it. Didn’t type anything lol. I didn’t know the blogger site on mobile worked great. I don’t need those apps after all. I’m feeling really good about my future appearance. My mom said she always wants my hair to look nice, so if a style is too hard, she will pay to get it done. I’m also considering getting my nails done. I’ve been seeing some very cute short acrylics. Might go ahead and get them. Things are really shaping up for the Enaminator! 😁 I was just in the ER on Saturday morning because of my stomach but it doesn’t even get ...
