Mini-Movie or Music Video Volume 3

Here is Volume 3, folks! If you liked 1 and 2, I think you'll like 3.

1. Carrie Underwood - Little Toy Guns

This is yet another of my favorite videos. As a movie, this would probably be geared toward kids.

2.Lady Antebellum - Need You Now

What happened? Will they be reunited? Yes, this one needs to be a movie.

3.Daughtry - Waiting for Superman

Does anyone want background on this man who is just saving people all day long? I sure do.

4.  Maroon 5 - Payphone (Explicit) ft. Wiz Khalifa

I can't help the language in the song but did you see this video?!?! 'Cause it is totally a mini movie that really needs a proper ending. Adam, will you please make one?

5. R. City ft. Adam Levine - Locked Away

Yes, Adam is back. Is it my fault he's gotten in some good videos? No, so leave your judgements at the door. This would make an incredible layered film about how they're all connected.

6. Chino y Nacho - Andas En Mi Cabeza ft. Daddy Yankee

I don't speak Spanish (remember what I said about judgements) but with a video this good you don't need to. Again, this would be an awesome layered film.

7. Meghan Trainor - Dear Future Husband

This would make a funny retro revival style film about looking for love. Like a funny Stepford Wives spoof. 

8. Ed Sheeran - Shape of You

Cute, funny and 100% Mini Movie! Does Ed ever get off the floor? 

9. Katy Perry - Part Of Me

This would be such a great film! She should totally make this as a legit movie.

10. Shawn Mendes, Camila Cabello - Señorita

"And this kids, is the story of how your dad and I got together" that is how this film would start. This would get me inside a movie theater, maybe. There is always Redbox, Netflix, Hulu and so on. Still, I would watch it.

And this, Good people and bots of the internet, is  Mini-Movie or Music Video Volume 3. Stay tuned for next weeks installment of my quirky series. Leave a comment or not.

Mini-Movie or Music Video Volume 2

So, I'm baaaaack! Here is Volume 2 of videos that really should've been a movie in my book. Enjoy!

1.Danielle Bradbery, Thomas Rhett - Goodbye Summer

Ahh, a tale of Summer love. So beautiful. I loved the end. Did you all see the end? Tissue, please?

2. Carrie Underwood - Last Name

So, consider this your "Do Not Get Drunk in Vegas" video. Just look at what happened. Bad stuff. But I do want to know what happened next.

3.Maroon 5 - One More Night

Am I the only one who feels the cinematic potential here? I don't know.  

4.Taylor Swift - Bad Blood ft. Kendrick Lamar

This would've been the cheesiest action flick. I would've loved it to pieces. 

5.Marshmello - Blocks

Another episode in the life of Marshmello. Stay tuned next week....

6.WALK THE MOON - Shut Up and Dance 

Like an 80' teen movie, here we go.

7.MAGIC! - Rude

Don't you just love them? Loving the end.

8. Katastrofe - Sangen Du Hater 

 I speak absolutely no Norwegian but I really love the video.

9.  Adele - Hello

Did you really think this wasn't going to be here? Shame on you.

10. Rascal Flatts - Come Wake Me Up 

 Yeah, pretty obvious why I included this on the list. Backstory, Please?!?! And what happens to the both of them? They leave you hanging and a little broken.

I hope you all enjoyed Volume 2. Next week is volume three, folks. As always you can leave a comment below or not.

 

Music Video or Mini-Movie? Vol.1

Below is a list of Music videos I think are a credit to the script writers, the actors and directors. These songs are good but the videos just take it to the next level. I am not including songs that are great and could be a mini movie but have a very lame video. This is for the one who went the extra mile. And now, without further ado...
1. Lady Antebellum: HeartBreak

 Tell me at the end of this video that you don't want to know what happens next!Tell ME!

2. Rascal Flatts: What hurts the Most

OMG, the pain in this song, those tears in her eyes... they did marvelous on this video.

3. Shawn Mendes: Treat you better

Yeah, no words for the greatness that is this video. Nope, none at all.

4. Rose Mazhontz: Begi

Yes, I know the song is all in Russian and No, I do not understand a word. But just watch the video and you don't need to know what she's saying. You just know what you're seeing.

5. Camila Cabello: Havana

Did you laugh and swoon, too? No, that was just me? Um,ok. This is now awkward.

6. Marshmello: Happier

I sobbed, like, literal tears after I saw this video. I'm sorry, I can't just now. I need a tissue.

7. Halsey: Without Me

That part at the end when she shows her hands.... I loved it. Mini-Movie!

8. Cee Lo Green: Forget you

Revenge of the Nerds, Cee Lo Style!

9. Carrie Underwood: Two Black Cadillacs

Oooh, me like. This is one of my favorite videos and songs. I know all the words. Why do so many of her songs feel like Lifetime Movies?

10. Dan + Shay: Tequila

And last but, most definitely, not least, Dan and Shay's work of film art. This video doesn't disappoint.

I hope you all enjoyed Volume 1 of Music Video or Mini-Movie?. Next week is Volume 2. If any disagreed with my choices, leave a comment below. If you liked them, feel most free to leave a comment below!

Can You Keep A Secret? movie review

As some may or may not know, I was totally and completely psyched about Sophie Kinsella's Can you keep a secret? being turned into a movie. Can you keep a secret? was the first novel of hers that I read so I was expecting great things here.

First things first, these are the things I loved. The cast is awesome. Alexandra Daddario did great as our Emma.



Tyler Hoechlin plays Jack. Yes, folks. We get to stare at his face for over an hour. I am not complaining.




The Soundtrack was solid. Whoever was in charge of wardrobe needs to come into my life. And, they filmed in NYC, People!

The only problem here is the script. They cut out Emma's parents and cousin. While I get that they were trying to save time, I couldn't help feeling that they got rid of one of the key plot points. It's Emma's insecurities with her family that is one of her biggest secrets. Also we never see the company picnic. That Picnic is a major turning point in the novel. It's a shame they wrote that out.

All in all, I did enjoy this film and I will probably watch it a few hundred times. But, I just got to say it, Folks. The book was better.

Feel free to agree or disagree below.
