Happy Birthday Lucille Ball!

 

I Love Lucy | Rotten Tomatoes

Don't Be Like Lucy — BE Lean


Hey Everyone, I hope you all are having a Fantastic Summer! 

Today is a very exciting day, It is Lucille Ball's Birthday and she is my absolute favorite person and lady ever she always makes me laugh and smile!

 I love I love Lucy it is one of my top favorite shows It always warms my heart and makes me laugh and smile after a long day or after a long day of work she is easy to love.

 She will find a way right into your heart and make you laugh and smile and just make you feel good! 

I have decided to write about one of my favorite episodes of I love Lucy, the chocolate factory episode that episode makes me laugh every time I watch it and I always watch it like it is the first time.

 I am ever seeing it, the episode starts with Ricky learning about Lucy's bounced checks and when he finds out her checks being bounced he immediately blows his top off.. and starts talking in Spanish and English at the same time to Lucy and wondering what she could have done to make so many of her checks bounce.

Lucy and Ethel Minimize the problem while Ricky and Fred Chide them by saying they don't do anything around the house and talk on the phone to their friends and get the tea on the latest gossip of what has been happening with their girlfriends and all the things they have been up too with their lives.

Lucy and Ethel think that Ricky and Fred have it easy because all they do is go outside of the house and go into town and work at their jobs and then get to come home and relax and start all over again the next day.

 Lucy challenges Ricky and Fred to swap with her and Ethel and they will look for jobs outside of the house while Ricky and Fred do all the stuff that Lucy and Ethel do while they are at home like the cooking, and the cleaning, and the laundry just all the essentials.

The bet is on in Ricky's role as a house husband he almost makes a perfect breakfast for him and Lucy unfortunately the breakfast didn't go the way he was planning it would go, eggs, ham,  potatoes, orange juice and exquisitely brewed coffee and Lucy is amazed and astonished at the moment.

Then the phone rings and Lucy tells Ricky to pick his hat up  which he left at the corner drugstore after making two breakfast orders and picking them up, you will have to see the episode to see what happened before he picked up the breakfast orders he explains it to Lucy.

Ethel then arrives to pick up Lucy so they can go Job hunting, they make it to the employment agency and the scene is so funny it will make you laugh when you see it! 

They go back and forth for awhile until finally Mr. Snodgrass settles on Candy Making, back at the home Ricky and Fred are not doing very well in their new roles they are messing up everything.

 Fred dropped the dishes on the floor and they both left iron shaped burn marks on the clothing, and Ricky Starches Lucy's Nylons into cardboard, at the candy factory, the forewoman sternly instructs Lucy in the candy-dipping department Lucy watches the woman next to her as she deftly picks up a cream center, drops it into a puddle of chocolate, rolls it, covers it with chocolate and sets it aside making a swirl design on top ,with a big smile Lucy tries to imitate what the other lady is doing with the chocolate.

She finally manages to make one and drops it onto the finishing tray with a flourish , this is fun Lucy says to her partner next to her, a fly lands on the other lady's face and Lucy has chocolate on her hands she tries to smack the fly and ends up getting chocolate on the other lady's face her coworker promptly slaps Lucy's face leaving her face covered in chocolate, they exchange more and more swats until they are both dripping in chocolate.

The boys have managed to ruin dinner completely Fred makes a seven Layer chocolate cake that is flatter than a pancake and Ricky's chicken and rice concoction sends several poultry carcasses into the ceiling, back at the candy factory Lucy and Ethel have been promoted to the wrapping department, as the candy enters the room by way of the candy belt their job is to wrap each piece of paper and return it to the belt, their forewoman tells them if one pieces gets past them on the belt unwrapped and into the packing room they are fired and then she says let it roll! 

You will have to see the episode to find out what happens with the candy and Lucy and Ethel, I can tell you that it will leave you laughing and smiling the whole time it will give you a deep belly joyous laugh, and the expressions they make while making the chocolate are very entertaining also and will leave you smiling the whole time.

 I decided to write about this episode because I wanted to celebrate Lucille' balls birthday because she is certainly a ball and is such a joy and has touched so many peoples hearts and lives in the time she was here on earth and she left an incredible and beautiful legacy and she will always be remembered for all the joy, love, laughter and entertainment she brought into the world! 

One of my favorite things about Lucy is her laugh and her love for her family, and her friends and how brave she is to try to new things and excel at the thing she wanted to accomplish in.  

She was certainly a bright light and a ball of fire and she had amazing red hair and radiant blue eyes that shined like the diamond she is!I love the show I love Lucy so much, I have a collection of her Dvds of I love Lucy and her show the Lucy Show and a couple other things she starred and have acted in! 

I recommend if you like Lucille ball and enjoy I love lucy celebrate her birthday with watching your favorite episode and just have a joyous and enjoyable time! 

It is good to laugh it makes you feel good on the inside and outside and she will definitely keep you laughing ! There is never a dull moment with Lucille Ball!

the Duff


Hey Everyone, I hope you all are having a good Summer and have had nice exciting adventures so far, and captured a lot of memories and fun moments.

I have decided to write about one of my favorite movies called the Duff starring Mae Whitman, Robbie Arnell and Bella thorne and Ken Jeong, and a whole wonderful cast of people! 

The movie starts with a young lady named Bianca who is enjoying her senior year of high school with her two best friends in the suburbs of Atlanta with Jess and and Casey who are significantly popular than she is.

 Her neighbor is Wesley, the captain of the football team, who was her childhood friend, Bianca reluctantly goes to a party hosted by a mean girl named Madison.

Wesley's on again off again girl  hopes of talking to her guitar playing - crush Toby, while they are at the party Wesley brings to Bianca's attention that she is the "DUFF" of her friend group designated Ugly fat friend, and explains to her duff means designated Ugly Fat Friend.

He explains that DUFF doesn't necessarily have to mean ugly or fat, it just could mean the unpopular person of the group, and therefore more accessible than the others in the group.

Bianca is insulated and devastated, but soon she realizes Wesley is right, the students in her high school are only interested in her as a way to get to jess and Casey.

She takes her anger out on Jess and Casey and unfriends them on Social Media and in person, She later overhears Mr. Fillmore Wesley's Science Teacher telling Wesley unless he passes the midterm he's off the football team, which could cost him his football scholarship.

She is desperate to up her social standing and go on a date with her crush, Bianca strikes a deal with Wesley: she will help him pass his class if he helps her socially, the two have fun at the mall, attempting a makeover by buying new clothes,Madison's henchgirl records Bianca embarrassingly playing in her new clothes and pretending that a mannequin is Toby.

Madison posts the video online to embarrass Bianca because she has become possessive of Wesley and jealous of Bianca's  relationship with him.

Wesley suggests to just own the video and be upfront with Toby, talking directly to him and asking him out, she takes the advice and to her surprise he accepts.

  Bianca takes Wesley to her favorite spot in the forest, her "think" rock to get him away from the constant arguing from his parents and to possibly cope with a divorce, they kiss and joke about it pretending it never happened.

Bianca and Toby have a date at his house, where she finds herself thinking about Wesley, she brushes it off, and then finds out he has been Duffing her to get close to Jess and Casey, she confronts him as the shallow and superficial person he has revealed himself to be and leaves in tears and she goes to find Wesley to tell him about what happened with her date.

I decided to write about this movie because it tells a good story, and it is really easy to follow, it also shows you that labels and societal expectations don't define you...true confidence comes from self-acceptance and embracing your authentic self! 

For me personally, I have had to grow to learn to love my voice, because I would hear sometimes your voice sounds like a little girl, or your too grown to be sounding like that, the reason my voice sounds young is because I talk over my larynx that's what makes it sound the way it does.

There was one time where I tried to talk deeper to appease the comments that was made about my voice when I did it didn't feel right because my voice wasn't meant to sound like that.. I believe I was born with a unique voice and that I was just born with a special voice and that is different from anyone else because it's my voice and I love my voice.

I believe it will be used for something special one day I know I was given this kind of voice for a reason... I can see it now being used in animation or something in Disney or some kind of character on a kids show, I know my time to shine will come soon.

All I have to do is wait and keep and believing and trusting it will happen, I have had a dream of working at Disney as long as I can remember and you know the Disney Saying Dreams Come True, and if you believe you can achieve! 

I will achieve my Dream!  I want to let you all know to be confident and proud of the person you are because you are amazing and fabulous and made and created very special and loved by many! Keep doing you and shining your star bright! 

My favorite scene from the movie is when Bianca stands up for herself with her friends and tells them that she is confident in who she is and is a fantastic person and she won't let her friends define who she is.. She knows who she is inside and out and proud of the person and girl she is!

I recommend this movie to anyone who wants to watch a good story!

A Thousand Words

Hey Everyone, I hope you are having a wonderful July.

 I have decided to write about one of my favorite movies a Thousand Words Starring Eddie Murphy, Kerry Washington and a whole wonderful cast of people! 

This movie makes me laugh a bunch and I am sure it will make you laugh too, the movie starts with a literary agent named Jack McCall and he has a gift to talk "GAB".

And he uses it various book deals and he is not afraid to stretch the truth to get them, while he is trying to get a deal from New-Age Self Help Guru Dr.Sinja, he sees through Jack's deceit but agrees to the deal.

 The next morning a Bodhi Tree appears in Jack's yard and he assumes the gift is from Dr. Sinja The next day, Jack discovers that Sinja has written a five page book and he goes to confront him.

 After Jack finds him he mentions the Bodhi tree, Dr. Sinja goes to Jack's house and they discover that for every word he says a leaf falls off, when the tree runs out of leaves it will pass away.

 Jack will pass away too, he even finds out that even written words and gestured words count towards his limit: and anything that happens to the tree happens to him.

 Jack isn't too keen about how the tree is connected to him and when he speaks he decides to chop down the tree so he won't have to worry when he is talking and using a combination of different words when he is in conversation with different people.

He uses an axe to try to chop the tree down and a wound appears on him that comes from the axe, squirrels start climbing the tree and it tickles him because he can feel the squirrels crawling all around the tree, later a gardener tries to poison the tree with DDT and Jack gets high on the fumes and then the tree gets sprayed with water Jack starts to sweat and perspire Profusely.

 Now Jack is forced to communicate and use his words carefully and his communication is becoming misunderstood and because of this it cost him his two book deals, his job, his wife and his son Tyler.

 She ends up walking out on him, when she thinks his sudden silence is due to him not loving her anymore she doesn't believe him when he tries to explain the tree to her, only Jack's assistant Aaron Weisberger realizes he is telling the truth, and goes to his house to keep track of how many leaves remain.

 Jack tries to break the curse by doing good, giving food to the homeless and donating some of his money to charity, that plan fails, Jack's life is falling apart and the tree is running out of leaves.

Jack Confronts Dr. Sinja and and asks him how to end the curse, he tells him to make peace in all his relationships, with just one branch of leaves left Jack tries to reconcile with his wife she is hesitant.

 He visits his Mother Annie who lives in a assisted living center and has dementia, Annie tells Jack who thinks he is his late father Raymond that she wishes Jack would stop being angry for walking out on them when he was a kid, he realizes this is the relationship that needs the most mending he visits his father's grave he expends the last three leaves of the tree with the words "I forgive You".

I decided to write about this movie because I also love to talk, I have loved talking ever since I can remember talking gives me so much joy and happiness especially when it's the right person, I feel so much happiness and excitement in my spirit whenever I am talking with someone or see someone when I am out in the community with one of my friends and out and about.

  I am also an encourager seeing someone else happy and smile even if it's just for a moment that makes me feel so happy because I brought a little happiness and joy to their day.

 With everything going on the world I think it's good to have some laughter and encouragement because It will lift up the person's spirit and let them know that someone is thinking of them and wanting to know how they are doing and that when they are having a not fun day or need some encouragement or uplifting that special person or friend they have knows they can lean on that person or friend because they know that they care about them and got their back for anything.

I also like Eddie's character in the movie he makes the character he is playing so believable and real like he is actually the person he is playing in real life.

Eddie puts his heart and spirit into all the characters he plays and keeps your attention in whatever movie he is playing in.

He keeps you entertained and laughing and having a fabulous time! He is the life of the party, he makes you feel like you are a part of the movie and brings you along on the journey! 

Personally my favorite movie with him and I do like plenty of his movies, my top two favorites are Daddy Day Care and Shrek, he does an incredible job in both of those movies.

 He keeps you laughing and smiling and tugs at your heartstrings in a good and funny way! 

I love the way he plays Donkey, Donkey is very hard to forget, he is very memorable and is extroverted, optimistic and loyal and a amazing companion and is a very fun animal to be around there is never a dull moment with Donkey, he reminds me of myself because I am also an extrovert and love to have fun and laugh, there is never a dull moment with me either!

My favorite scene from the movie is when he tries chopping the tree down, that scene always makes me laugh.

I also like the coffee scene where he is trying to make an order and the barista thinks that he is making several orders when he was just trying to get his usual and ends up ordering more than he asked for because the barista thought that he was wanting different things because he wasn't talking... that made me laugh a lot... I also like the scene where he sings the chorus of the Micheal Jackson song that scene is a good one! There will be plenty of scenes that will give you a chuckle! I know it did for me!

I recommend this movie to anyone who wants to see a good comedy movie!

Selena

The film poster shows Selena Quintanilla-Pérez grinning over a live concert. The background is dark with faint faces of those in attendance to the concert, with the names of the two lead actors. The middle has the film's name and tagline, and the bottom contains a list of the director's previous works, as well as the film's credits, rating, and release date.

 Hey Everyone.

I have decided to write about one of my favorite movies called Selena, Starring Jennifer Lopez, Edward James Olmos,  Constance Marie and a whole wonderful cast of people.

  The movie came out in the year 1997, and it opens backstage in the Astrodome in Houston Texas on February 26th 1995, right before Selena comes on stage and sings..

In 1961 young Abraham Quintanilla and his doo-wop group the "Dinos" are unable to find success, a restaurant owner in Texas cancels their gig when he finds out their not white.

 They perform for A Mexican-American night club, but a violent riot ensues when they do not perform the audience's performed Tejano Music.

But rather American Pop Music like Blue Moon, and we Belong together, It is now Twenty Years Later And Abraham is Married to Marcella and living in Lake Jackson TX with his three Children Son  A.B, Daughters Suzette and Selena, He discovers Selena has a singing talent and decides to call the band "Selena Y Los Dinos" her as lead singer, her brother A.B on Bass and her sister Suzette on drums they are initially resistant to make music, they end really enjoying it.

They move to Corpus Christi Texas, the band goes on the road to support their family, the reception is a little lackluster Selena adds more dance and fun to her singing routine.

 The band's success grows following local performances, in the year 1989 Selena reveals her bustier during a carnival performance her dad isn't very happy about the bustier situation because of the way it looks and how it looks attractive.

In the year 1990 they meet a man named Chris he auditions to be the guitarist, Abraham initially doesn't respond to him because of his Heavy Metal Style, he accepts Chris after he agrees to cut his hair.

Chris later meets Selena while he is touring with her family and going to different places they end up falling in love,  in the year 1992 Chris's former bandmates trash a hotel suite.

Abraham threatens to fire him, A.B insists to his dad and pleads with him they need him for their upcoming tour in Mexico, promoters worry when they realize Selena doesn't speak Spanish well her personality and her care for her for fans wins everyone over.

The show almost goes awry when the huge crowd rushes the stage and it makes it buckle, Selena calms them down with a happy performance of Como la flor, and is accepted as an artist with the people in Mexico, her dad catches her hugging Chris on the bus and ends up firing him from the tour which leaves Selena heartbroken and he threatens to end the group if Selena follows him.

She insists that Chris marries her telling him that her father Abraham will never willingly accept their relationship they decide to elope, the day after they get married a radio station announces their marriage and that's how her father founds out about her getting married.

She visits her dad and they make up he tells her how proud he is of her maturity and realizes he was too harsh on her and Chris, the Quintaillas congratulate them and accept Chris into their family and rehire him as the guitarist, Her live album wins a Grammy for Best Mexican American Album, Selena opens her first Selena Etc Boutique,Selena begins recording her crossover album by Singing I could fall in love with you, her and Chris plan to start a family together.

I decided to write about this movie because I love the story of Selena and how she chased after her dreams and did whatever she could to achieve them and make them come true! 

I love how kind, caring, loving, joyous, fearless, strong she is... She was such a shining star and loved by many! She touched so many lives with her amazing personality and beautiful heart that so many people loved and treasured she was so easy to love, she had a bright happy smile bright as the sun! It just radiated happiness and pure joy! 

I also love that she loved Disney just like me, She loved little mermaid and her favorite character was Sebastian she was going to name her first son Sebastian after Sebastian from little Mermaid.

 I love little Mermaid because it is a really engaging story and draws you into what Ariel is feeling and what she is going through and how determined she is to be part of the human world and how she achieves that dream and how happy and excited she is to be part of the world and be with her Prince Eric and happy that her dad decided to let her be part of the real world and let her be happy and enjoy life! 

Selena was and is beautiful inside and out, and her songs are absolutely fantastic and has so much love and care in them she put her heart and soul into those songs she sang, all of her hard work paid off she is still remembered today and her Music is being played all over the world, she has not been forgotten she is still close to peoples hearts. 

My favorite scene from the movie is when She sings Como la Flor, and everyone is so engaged with her singing they are just drawn to her and just so happy and excited to see her and enjoy every moment of it, 

I also like the scene where her and her mom dance together that is a cute scene, you can tell how much her mom loved her and how much they enjoyed spending time together.

 I also like the scene where Selena visits her dad after Chris and her get married, he tells her how much he loves her and how proud he is of her and glad that she is happy, and that he is so happy that she has found Chris and pleased to know that he takes care of her and loves on her and will be there for her always. 

I also like the scene where a couple of guys help Selena out with something with the car and they say anything for Selenas. 

And she loved animals, all kinds of animals she says she wants to have a farm with all kinds of animals, and she also loves Pizza Pepperoni pizza she even tried it with Hot Sauce, that is a funny scene in the movie, Chris pours a lot of hot sauce on his pizza and Selena tells him you may want to be careful.

This Hot Sauce is very hot, he says I'll be fine he takes a bite of the pizza and does the funniest face expression and he says I like it Spicy that scene makes me laugh a lot there are a lot good scenes in this movie I think you will enjoy!

 One of my favorite songs is Dreaming of you because it holds a special place in my heart, It is one of the last songs I listened to with my Grandfather, He was in the hospital and the Selena movie was playing and the song Dreaming of you played and he was watching too and that is the last song we listened to together! It is a good heartfelt song and pulls at your heartstrings! I also love Bidi-Bidi-Bom Bob

 Check this movie out you will absolutely love it as soon as the movie begins you will be dancing and singing throughout the whole movie ! Check it out. Jennifer Lopez did an outstanding job playing Selena, I know Selena is so proud of her and smiling down on her from Heaven! She put her heart and spirt into playing her! 

I recommend this movie to anyone who wants to see a fabulous movie!

Daddys little Girls


Amazon.com: Tyler Perry's Daddy's Little Girls (Widescreen ...

 Hey everyone! I hope all the fathers had an amazing father's day and that it was filled with joy and laughter and everything your heart desires!

 I have decided to write about a movie I enjoy starring Idris Elba, Gabrielle Union, Louis Gossett Jr, China Anne McClain, Tasha Smith, Malinda Williams, Tracee Ellis Ross, Sierra Mcclain, and Lauryn Mcclain, Cassi Davis, Terri J Vaughn, and a whole wonderful cast of people.

 The movie starts off with a man named Monty James  who lives in Edgewood Atlanta.

 He is a well liked Mechanic who works  for a man named Willie and Monty dreams of owning his own shop one day.

He has three daughters named Sierra, Lauryn and China who live with their maternal grandmother Kat and he visits them regularly and provides finical support.

 Kat is sick and dying and before she passes away she tells Monty to take custody of the girls because their mother Jennifer who is Kat's disowned daughter and Monty's ex-wife barely has any interest in the girls.

She cares more about her boyfriend Joe, Kat has her funeral and Jennifer shows up With Joe and his thug friends at the funeral when she is there she physically tries taking the girls from Monty.

Her Aunt Rita steps in and doesn't allow it she tells Monty she attends to take full custody of the girls,  Monty has another job he accepts he is a driver for an attorney named Julia Rossmore at the recommendation of his next -door neighbor Maya to earn more money.

Then one evening Julia's friends Brenda and Cynthia  set her up on a blind bate which goes unfortunately bad Monty has to work Later than he expected to work.

 Monty is driving Julia home and on her way he gets a call about an emergency and his daughters were involved in a house fire, he immediately goes to the hospital without telling Julia where he is headed and she fires him, Monty arrives at the hospital and finds out Sierra accidentally started a fire and that his girls were home with no supervision until his neighbor Maya rescued them, and while they are still in the hospital the social services representative Laurie Bell grants immediate custody to the mother Jennifer.

They face neglecting and abuse from Jennifer and Joe constantly, Monty is called to the school to find Sierra's school to fins out she has drugs she tells her dad that Jennifer and Monty has been forcing her to sell them and telling her they will hurt Monty if she refuses to do what they asked her.

 He  is aware that Joe has money to get a high-powered attorney to get custody of the girls, Monty goes to Julia for help, she refuses his request she thinks he wants help with government assistance.

It is now Montys custody hearing day and he is his own representative, she hears his failing attempt to represent himself to the court and Julia decides to represent him and help him out, after hearing trying to attempt to tell the judge his daughters are living with a drug dealer she represents him.

 Monty takes her to a jazz club in his neighborhood for his birthday and they drink and dance with his friends, over the next few weeks while they are getting closer they get romantic feelings for each other and her friend Brenda finds out they are dating and she has met Monty before, she tells Julie he is beneath her status, his friend is injured in a robbery.

 After that Willie decides to retire and he offers the shop to Monty and he accepts, it is now time for the child custody hearing and Julia argues that it would be in the children's best interest for Monty to be awarded full custody and provides the court with a written statement from Kat.

Jennifer's lawyer counters Julia by saying Monty is not suitable to raise his children because he was convicted of statutory rape that occurred 16 years prior, Julia feels betrayed and she decides to stop representing Monty and she goes on her way.

 Monty's daughters arrive at his house and tells him Joe has been beating them, his daughters are asleep and while they are sleeping he is very livid he drives off and slams into Joe'S and Jennifer's Car and brutally beats up Joe and then his thugs start beating up Monty and his friends and neighbors and the police Arrive, Julia sees on the news about the near-riot and rushes to help Monty after she learns from the  report he's been wrongfully convicted, she decides to represent him again and help him out.

I decided to write about this movie because it is a very good story and it shows you how dads love and protect their daughters and will always be there for them and not let any hurt harm or danger come to them at any point. 

And I like the acting in the movie, It is like the characters they are playing in the movie, are actually the characters in real life, they really bring them to life I like Monty's character because he makes sure his daughters are ok, and that they are safe and happy! 

I like Gabrielle's character too, she really brings a lot to the character Julia, and her character is easy to like.. She is strong, and has quite a personality and does whatever she can to help Monty get his girls back! 

 I think no matter how much you grow or the older you get you will always be Daddy's little girl because when you came into the world,  it's like you were their little Princess and you made their world bright and happy, and that you are safe and content and give you everything your heart desires! 

They want to make sure whenever you meet a guy or have a boyfriend that they treat you respectfully like the Queen or Princess you are because that is how they treat their wife like a queen and making sure she is happy and that no hurt harm or danger comes to her.

 I think I am my family's little girl and Princess because they all take good extra care of me and make sure I am ok and happy, and living my best life!  One of my favorite memories with my dad is when he took me to Disney Paris on Father's Day he surprised me with it.

 It was one of my favorite moments ever He really doesn't like Disney as much as me, I saw Minnie Mouse and we decided to wait in line to meet her.

Now look when we were waiting to in line to meet her, at first my dad was behind me and then somehow he ended up in front of me and was saying he couldn't wait to meet Minnie Mouse, it's like the big Kid  in him came out in wanting to Meet Minnie Mouse and shake her hand.. So it was then his turn and Minnie Mouse put out her hand, and she was tapping her glove for him to kiss it, and he did and then Minnie Blushed it was the cutest and funniest thing ever ! It is a memory I will always cherish and remember, I am so glad he took me to Disney Paris and that we could create fun family memories to look back on and remember all the fun family moments!

My favorite scene from the movie is when Julia and Monty first meet in the limo and she gives him a hard while he is first getting to know her and driving her around... and she is telling him that she wants to go home and he tells her that he has to go somewhere else. that scene makes me laugh a lot!

 I also like the scene where Monty comes to visit his girls while they are at their grandma's house and they are all so excited to see him that is a cute scene! You will find a lot of scenes that you will enjoy and love when you see the movie!

I recommend this movie to anyone who wants to see a good family movie!

Song Sung Blue


Hey Everyone, I hope you all are having a happy June!

 I have decided to write about my favorite Movie Song Sung Blue!
 It stars Kate Hudson, Hugh Jackman, Ella Anderson,King Princess and a whole wonderful Cast of people.

the movie starts out in the year  1987 where we first meet a man named Mike Sardina and he is in alcoholic support group meeting.

And he introduces himself to the class and calls himself lighting you will find out why when you watch the movie, he is a big Neal Diamond Fan and sings different covers of his songs the song he sings in his meeting is Song Sung Blue, and his class seems to enjoy it when he finishes up with his class.

He runs off to his other event where he is scheduled to perform for the evening,  he is hired to perform at the Wisconsin State Fair, filling in for a Don Ho impersonator who has undergone emergency surgery.

 He refuses to go on stage because he wants to sing the material that he had planned to sing and practiced for the promoter says no he quits, and then we meet a young woman named Claire Stengl who is a hair dresser by day and a performer by night.

 She is getting to perform as Pasty Cline, Mike is amazed by her and very smitten, we are now in the year 1988 Mike and Claire meet again and find out their neighbors and have a conversation she suggests he go down the road of Neil Diamond Route.

 He watches her sing and immediately is head over heels and loves watching her sing, Mike goes home and starts practicing and then they decide to sing together and later begin a romantic relationship she kisses him first and tells him she has been wanting to do that since they first met and he kisses her back sharing the same feelings he has to her.

There  is a little misunderstanding about what their target audience would be when they perform for their first gig, the show almost ends in a big fight.

 Clair shares with mike he can't be stubborn about the band's future and what is to come, he is very disappointed and upset about then failure, he had the perfect night planned for that evening, he was venting about what had happened during the show, and how he had a whole proposal planned.

Claire happily accepts his proposal and gets him to agree to always open with Sweet Caroline in the future when they perform and he accepts, little did they know they end up with a string of Successful Shows evening opening for Pearl Jam in the year 1955 Eddie Vedder joins them for their opening number singing "Forever in Blue Jeans" at the request of Mike and they win over the crowd and he even wins over his Stepdaughter Rachel who wasn't to sure of him at first.

 We are now at the year of 1999, while Mike and Dana his stepson are in the kitchen recording a video of Mike Singing, Claire is outside gardening and then she stands up and looks at her garden, and while her back is turned a car comes fast down the grass and runs over her, she then has to go to the hospital and is getting worked on Rachel and Dana are both worried about what's happening and Mike tells her everything will be ok they are working on your mother because of the accident as a result she loses her left leg below the knee and Mike suffers a stress induced Heart-Attack.

He shares with Rachel in the hospital he has a very bad heart and that he is going to pass out and that she will need to revive him with the emergency defibrillator, she revives him just like he said and then he  is ok for the most part.

They take Claire home from the hospital and she is going through different stages of emotions because of the loss of her leg and not being able to do Music and sing which is something she absolutely loves, she is going through depression, pain, and addiction to pain meds later, and begins to think Mike is seeing someone else and starts arguing with him, his daughter Angelina sees he is stressed and going through a lot of tension at the moment with Claire and everything else going on his life.

She asks him if he has been going to His AA meetings after some prodding from her he confesses that singing is not the same without Claire, and that it doesn't mean anything without her there with him, He loves her so much and is afraid he's losing her.

Angelina tells him to take his alcoholism more seriously and he takes her advice and goes to his meetings, Later Claire unfortunately suffers a crazy episode and is found wondering outside their home thinking she is performing on stage and singing to an audience.

Mike checks her into a Mental Hospital to recover, Mike turns to blue-collar work and works at a Thai Restaurant and sings Karaoke the owner and his daughters are really happy he is there and the dad really appreciates him being there, he also finds out Rachel is four months pregnant and has decided to give the baby up for adoption to a couple who cant have children, but has not found anyone yet who is willing to accept the baby he asks her what does she need to help her through this pregnancy.

She says her mom, Claire has made a breakthrough while she was away and recovering and gradually gains the ability to walk and she reconciles with Rachel, Claire pushes for "lighting and thunder" to go on ginning again to regain their popularity.

She helps Rachel through her pregnancy and the adoption and spending time with her family helps Claire adapt to the prosthetic leg, eventually they get a call from Milwaukee from the Ritz and invites them to be a headliner on the same night Neil Diamond is playing a sold-out show nearby.

Mike is at first hesitant about doing the gig, Claire insists on it and tells Mike we are ready, I know I am, and because Mike loves Claire so much and loves to sing with her and seeing her happy he decides to do the Gig and they learn later Neil Diamond wants to meet them in person after the show.

Mike is preparing for the Gig and getting ready and practicing what he will say to Neil Diamond and then he is abruptly hit with another heart attack and hits his head on the sink and is experiencing bleeding, he stops some of the bleeding with Nail Glue and is recovered enough to perform and sing and before the show starts he tells his daughters they can do anything and that they got this! 

He touches his head and sees a little blood on his fingers and still decides to go on with the show in the midst of everything happening with him because he loves His wife so much and loves singing with her it brings him so much happiness she is his thunder and means so much to him.. before they go on to sing they wish each other good luck and he tells her none of this would have been possible without her.

She gives him the biggest smile and kiss, the show is a huge success he gives it his all he puts his whole being into the gig! I think he was saying to himself if this is my last singing with my wife and performing in front of a audience I am going to sing with all I got, and go out on a high note and take in the moment of singing with my wife and my family in the audience!

 You have to see the movie to find out what happens next, I have to caution you it is a bitter-sweet ending, It is a good heart-felt movie and will pull at your heart-strings and it will make you feel good and happy all the songs are really enjoyable and will have you clapping your hands and dancing along to the movie, It made me smile throughout the whole movie, I decided to write about this movie because Hugh Jackman's character Mike I was really drawn to him.

He really put his heart and spirit into the character of Mike and made you believe he was actually Mike Sardina what I liked about him is even in the midst of everything happening with him, he still went on and sang and did what he loved because he loved his wife Claire so much and being with her and singing with her meant the world to him and made him so happy.

That is a lot of love to have for someone when you are having pains you push past the pain and give everything you got and have for that special someone because they mean so much to you and you want to give them the world and make sure they are happy and  have everything their heart desires! I was also really drawn to Kate Hudson's character Claire with her love of singing.

 Music is one of my first loves I have loved singing and music as long as I can remember when I sing I feel so happy and joyful it gives me such a warm and exciting feeling and I get lost in my singing sometimes because I am enjoying it so much! 

I imagine myself singing onstage in front of an audience and singing all kinds of different songs and having the time of my life, for me seeing the smile on Claire's face while she was singing is the exact same feeling I have when I sing, and I also connected with her when she was depressed with the loss of her leg and going through all kinds of emotions that is how I felt when I got my diagnosis with Type 1 Diabetes I remember looking in the mirror and I saw that my eyes were teary like I couldn't believe my whole life had just changed in an instant, I did feel some type of way I pushed through it and accepted it just like Claire processed and took some time to adapt to her new life with one leg, She got her breakthrough and is still standing and doing what she loves!   

Kate Hudson is one of my favorite actresses she is brilliant in everything she does and puts her whole-self into the characters she plays she makes you believe she is the person that she is playing in the movie.

I love a lot of her movies one of my favorite movies with her is Bride Wars she does a phenomenal job, I love her in a little bit of Heaven she does a fantastic job with that one and I also love her in Raising Helen.
I am also a big fan of her mom, she reminds me a lot of her mom in her voice and her laugh and smile! I can see her mom in her a lot! 
My favorite scene from the movie is when Claire and Mike first meet, He instantly falls for her and is very smitten with her and she makes smile and feel so happy and their singing voices really connect with each other and are so in sync with each other and have the same wave length.

I also love the scene where they sing Sweet Caroline together while they are also having their wedding together and all their family and friends are there and singing together.

 I also like when Rachel accepts Mike as her stepdad and calls him Papa so sincerely and lovingly! It shows you how she feels about him and how much they gotten to know each other and bonded and how much she loves and cares for him and loves seeing how happy he and her mom are together and how they make beautiful music together ! 
I also like how Mike trusts Rachel and how happy he is to have another little girl, and someone to spend time with and talk to and be someone that she can lean for anything and that he will always be there for her with no hesitation.

 I also like how excited Mike gets when he is singing different songs, you can feel his excitement and happiness and tell he loves what he does and he looks so cool while he is singing and performing he has a very big confident and strong vibe, and happy to do what he does with the woman that he loves! She is his everything and is the world to him! 

My favorite song from the Movie is Soolaimon It hypes me every time I hear it! It gets you into such a fun and happy mood seeing how they are happy and joyful they are with singing it will make you feel the same and you will want to hear it over and over, I have listened to three times today lol! 
It makes my dog feel peaceful, He fell asleep listening to it because of how happy and exciting it is! I also like Sweet Caroline that is a fun one, and I like Holly Holy, I like the chorus part where they say sing, sing, sing, sing with such emphasis and with everything they have got! 

I recommend this movie to anyone who wants to see a good and fun movie! I hope you enjoy I know I did ! I give it a double ten in ratings!

Micheal

















Hey Everyone.

I hope you all are having a lovely June!

I have decided to write about one of my favorite movies Micheal, starring Jaafar Jackson, Colmon Domingo, Nia Long, Juliano Valdi and a whole amazing cast of people!

The movie starts off with the year 1966 Steel Worker Joesph Jackson assembles his boys Jackie, Tito, Jermaine, Marlon, and Micheal into the band the Jackson 5 with Micheal on lead vocals.

They have months of grueling rehearsals with one of the rehearsals Michael gets whooped and leaves the room in tears and hides in the bathroom to get some composure and get himself together.

He and his brothers sing really well together, the Jackson 5 perform at different gigs and the crowd is really drawn to and loving Micheal.

They love his personality and his kind and caring heart and the way he sings, how smooth and soft his voice is one day Suzanne De Passe discovers them in the year 1968, and something exciting happens to them they get signed with Mo-Town a year later.

The next thing they know their albums are really topping the charts and they are becoming more and more popular and known in the world, they sell out concerts across the US, allowing them to move from a small house in Gary, Indiana to a mansion in Encino, California in 1971, and the MoTown Founder Barry Gordon thinks Micheal would do incredible as a solo artist.

Barry really takes his time with Micheal and shows him what he does in the studio and what all the buttons on the music board does and the different sounds they can make and that he can talk to Barry anytime he needs, Barry becomes a really good friend to Michael and like a mentor.

Later in Micheals Grownup Years he signs with Epic Records for his first Solo Album as an Adult. Off the Wall, and Quincy Jones is producing his album.

Micheal has gotten a lot of success with his solo career, his career is held back by Joesph because he believes he is responsible for his kid's fortunes and what they do with their life and career.

Micheal also loves animals he told his mom when he was a little boy that he feels like animals understand him better than humans because they don't know him as a celebrity or as Micheal Jackson, they just see a person who is loving and kind and caring and loves animals.

He gets an Alpaca and a few other animals while he is growing up, unfortunately Micheal is forced to continue touring with his brothers on the triumph tour because Joesph won't let him go, he is feeling insecure about the way he looks because Joe would give all kinds of comments about his nose and how he looks.

Micheal would really listen to those comments and think that he really does look like what Joe is saying he looks like, he decides to get a rhinoplasty to make his nose smaller and he develops vitiligo, he later has an argument with Joesph about how he is wanting to go solo and decides to go out for a while and have sometime for himself and get a different change of scenery.

He takes advice from his bodyguard and close friend Bill Bray who tells him to get his music out and believe in himself, he creates his own path, later he is in a music meeting and he hires John Branca as his attorney and tells him to fire Joesph by fax, and to do quickly and fast.

After watching a news report on the Crips-Bloods gang war, he hires real members of both gangs to appear in his music video for Beat it.

That song is off the chain Thriller breaks World-Wide sale records while Micheal delivers a Ground-breaking performance of Billie Jean Motown 25, Micheal and Branca head to New York to ask The CBS Records President Walter Yetnikoff, to have MTV play Micheal's Music Videos, despite the network not playing videos by Black Artists, MTV agrees to give him Airtime after Yetnikoff threatens to pull the CBS Records catalog out of the network, Micheal is enjoying his success, Joesph has a meeting with the boxing promoter Don King and proposes the 1984 Victory Tour to reunite his sons.

King offers Joesph a Pepsi-Co sponsorship deal only if Micheal tours with the Jacksons, Micheal objects he has to go anyway while they are rehearsing, a spark from the pyrotechnics sets Micheal's hair on fireresulting in third-degree burns and nerve damage.

He and Branca sue PepsiCO for damages, with the settlement proceeds going to the Burn Center where he was being treated, In the hospital Micheal meets with other patients as he thinks about taking part in the Victory Tour Once Micheal recovers he decides to go on the tour with his brothers.

You will have to see the movie to find out what happens next, I decided to write about this movie because I am a big fan of Michael Jackson the King of Pop, I have liked him as long as I can remember.

He really left a mark and print on the world and made so many amazing and incredible songs, He really accomplished a lot for the time he was here in the world.

He was loved by so many and was really a kind caring, amazing person even though he didn't have much of a childhood he found ways to recreate it and do different things to make himself happy, and keep moving forward.

And he would also say encouraging things to himself different Mantras to lift himself up and to feel positive and good about himself like you are Beautiful, You are Gorgeous, You are the Greatest, If God is for me, who can be against me!

I like Micheal because he reminds me of myself with how big his heart is and how empathetic he is to people, and how loving, kind, caring, and how much he loves to dance and sing!

Micheal was really special and I am so glad I got to know the king of Pop and his music, and enjoy him while he was here on earth!

He also was an amazing father he really loved his kids and did everything to ensure their safety and make sure they are ok and good and he was always by their side, and always made sure to seize the moments with them whenever he could.

He wanted his kids to know he loved them and would do anything for them no matter what and he wanted to know that they are always going to be safe and good whenever they go out somewhere or attend something because he loves and cares for them very much!

I also loved his relationship with his sister Janet Jackson, you can tell they had an amazing relationship and loved each other so much and happy to be brother and sister!

My favorite song with Janet is the one she did with Micheal, Scream that is a very dynamic song, Micheal and Janet put their hearts and all they had into the song! And in the video there is some dancing involved, Micheal and Janet really do an incredible job!

I love a lot of Micheal Jackson songs, One of my favorites is Remember the time, It has amazing rhythm and really gets you moving and dancing and will leave you with a smile on your face.

I also love PYT it makes me smile everytime I hear it, especially when he says Repeat after Me!

That is a fun chorus line and it will have you singing along! I also love the song Bad and Black or white those songs really get me going when I hear it!

I also love the way you make me feel, and who is it? I also like You Rock My World! He has so many different songs, once you hear one of them you will be hooked right away and want to hear him sing all the time!

My favorite scene from the movie, is his interaction with the animals and how real it is, He really loves and has a heart for them, It portrays through the movie, I also like how much he loves Disney and how much he loves to read that is something I enjoy also!

Also his nephew Jaafar is playing him and he worked so hard and put his heart and soul into playing his Uncle Micheal, He plays him so well that you think it is Actually Micheal in some parts, and it's a little hard to tell if it is Micheal Or Jaafar. He loved playing his Uncle.

You can tell how much he enjoyed playing his Uncle Micheal and how much he loved and cared for his Uncle and wanting to honor him and making him Proud!

I believe if Micheal was still here and saw the movie, He would be so happy and proud of his nephew and the outstanding job he did playing him, just a little tip once you see Micheal and hear the songs you may find it hard to Stay Quiet, I sang the whole time, I couldn't help myself I just love Micheal Jackson! Go and see Micheal You will absolutely love it, It is like attending a Micheal Jackson concert, It is so much fun and like a big Party!

I recommend this movie to anyone who wants to see a great movie!
