Elvis, 2022 - ★★★★★

Baz Luhrmann, you are my guy 4L. What an awesome movie. I'm sickened by the level of greatness that movie possessed. But I mean, who can be surprised? This was a Baz Luhrmann film after all. Austin Butler put his SOUL into his performance as Elvis Presley. What a beautiful film. Super duper kudos to the whole cast and crew. And I give a special shoutout to makeup as well as the editing crew. They did their thing! I know some will have complaints about the extravagance of the film, but 1) it's about Elvis, what did you expect? and 2) It's a Baz Luhrmann film, what did you expect? Baz Luhrmann was the perfect guy to make an Elvis movie, he completely gets how to put on a show, just like EP himself. - Letterboxd

    Omg you just reaffirmed my want to go see it cause those trailers had me hooked im ngl. i was actually gonna ask you if you wanted to go to the theater w/ me to watch it cause we both wanted to see it but thats okay bc i can just talk to you about it after i watch it. this actually makes me much more interested in baz now that you’ve mentioned him and ik if you like a movie to where you talk about it like this then its probably good. also loving the blog i will comment more often.

      Ahh, dang! I wish I had known, it would have been so fun to see it together, and you could have used one of the free tickets my family has for the Cinemark in Fayetteville. I'm trying to watch Romeo + Juliet on HBO next because Baz Luhrmann has only directed 6 films and I love his distinctive style. After seeing Elvis, I'm officially putting him on my list of favorite directors which is James Gunn, Taika Waititi (just for his revamp of Thor), and now Baz! He's really cool because of his involvement in various aspects of movie production. For Elvis, he wrote, produced, and directed, not by himself of course, but it's still a high level of involvement, which is what he's known for. Definitely call/text me when you watch it, you're totally gonna love it and follow it up with an Elvis phase, which will be cool.

first post!

 ok hello! this is my new blog where i will be sharing my thoughts. typing this on my phone so the formatting might be odd idk but idc. i’ll do entertainment reviews. i read manga and US comics (mostly marvel). I mainly watch cartoons (the only live action shows i watch are superstore, grown-ish, and black-ish) but when I’m with my mother I watch more common shows like Queen Sugar (currently and it’s VERY good!) or Grey’s Anatomy (hated it at first but now i’m hooked, i hate to say it). I LOVE to listen to music! I have a lot of thoughts so this is a perfect outlet to share them. There are so many things I want to say! idk how to add media this way but if i knew how to i’d input a “pop! pop!” gif from community. that’s all for now. i’ll properly set this site up later.

I will not be babysitting.

I attempted to find babysitting jobs and it was just so much hassle. They wanted me to be 18 and have my own car, and the best website I saw wanted me to pay to use it, like what the world??? I concluded that finding babysitting jobs online was ridiculous. Maybe I'll look for tutoring jobs. For babysitting, I'm going to attempt to find work by word of mouth. After looking at babysitting jobs, I got on Indeed and found two jobs I'd be willing to do: a temp job at Clayton State Barnes and Nobles, and another temp job, at Leslie's which is a pool care store. I did the Barnes and Nobles application all the way through but did not press submit because as we know, commitment sickens me. My stomach literally lurched every time I got closer to the final submit button. I didn't start the Leslie's application yet. I'm going to talk about it with my dad. I really need to get out of the house. Ugh, I hate summer. I hope my senior photo looks good. I don't think I...
