I didn't get to see Captain America: Brave New World when it was released last week, so I'm going to see it today. From the comic books to the movies and the show, I've been a big Sam Wilson fan which is why I'm so happy that he got be Captain America on screen. I can't wait to see this movie, it has Captain America trying to save the day to stop a huge global problem. So far, I have managed to avoid spoilers. Another movie I'm going to watch later today is the Hallmark movie Sisterhood, Inc.. It follows as a big sister who is trying to makeover her younger sister's life. And while doing that, she unexpectedly finds love.
I can't wait to watch both movies, they just seem so fun and interesting.

There are some interesting movies out this weekend. Although it's not on my list, I am interested in seeing Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes. However, I've only seen the first movie from the rebooted series and I'm not sure if you need to have watched all the others before seeing this latest one. So that's why it's not on my list.
As for the other movies: Not Another Church Movie, Poolman and A Whitewater Romance they all seem interesting. I don't remember the last time I've seen a parody or spoof movie and Not Another Church Movie is a clearly a parody of Tyler Perry and his movies. It looks like a funny movie. And so does Poolman which has quirky characters and a strange and quirky mystery. And last is A Whitewater Romance a romantic comedy that's centers around a competition that's set in the Rocky Mountains.
What movies are you watching this weekend?

Happy Saturday! What movies are you watching this weekend?
Abigail is definitely a must see for me. They kidnapped a little girl that turned out to be a vampire. Sasquatch Sunset looks so weird and ridiculous that I have to see it. I've been hearing that it's a gross movie but so are horror movies, so it shouldn't be an issue. As for The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare, it looks like an interesting action movie that's set in World War II. The last movie, Falling in Love in Niagara is a romantic comedy that follows Madeline who was dumped before her wedding possibly finding love on her would be honeymoon to Niagara.
All of these movies look good but I don't know if I have time today to go to the theatre. I'm going to try and see if I can go tomorrow. But I'm definitely going to watch Falling in Love in Niagara tonight.
Theatre

When do you like going to the movie? Are you a morning or evening movie goer? I love to get up early and go to the theatre. It's just something I enjoy, watching a movie early in the day. I'll go watch movies in the evening or at night but I just prefer going in the morning or as early as possible.
Anyway, what movies are you watching this weekend? There are four I want to see: horror (Arcadian and Sting), a comedy (Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead) and a romantic comedy (Legend of the Lost Locket). I love that horror movies are year round movies instead of mainly being released in the fall. Both Arcadian and Sting look creepy especially Sting since I don't like spiders but that's not going to stop me wanting to see it. I wonder what the creatures are in Arcadian? Are they mutated animals, people or something else? It will be interesting to find out.
As for the other two movies: Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead and Legend of the Lost Locket. I love watching the original Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead and this new one looks just as fun. Can you imagine being a kid trying to figure what to do after your babysitter died? I always thought the older sister did as best as could trying to take care of her siblings and work a demanding crazy job. So, yeah, I can't wait to see this. And finally, Legend of the Lost Locket is a romantic comedy (more like romantic quest) that follows an antiques expert who is looking for a special locket that supposed to bring true love. This looks like a cute movie, I can't wait to watch it tonight.

What movies are you watching? There are two I want to see: Monkey Man and Blind Date Book Club.
Dev Patel being an action movie star was totally not on my radar but I have to see Monkey Man. I love a good action movie especially one that has an interesting story that follows a guy seeking his revenge against those who steamroll over the lives of poor and disadvantages people. This looks good. I'm going to check and see if I can tickets for it today if not then I'll go tomorrow.
From action to romance, Blind Date Book Club centers around a bookstore owner and an author and the possibility of love and romance. This looks like it's going to be a cute movie. I just love bookstore romance movies. I'm a little behind in watching a lot of the new Hallmark movies but I will be watching this one.

Today is a day of giving thanks and reflecting on our lives. It's a day to look at the world and see how you can help make it a better place. It's also a day of family, food and relaxation. However you plan to celebrate the day, I want to wish everyone a very Happy Thanksgiving! And for anyone who doesn't celebrate the holiday, I also wish you a very Happy Thursday!
If you're looking for something holiday inspired to watch, I included a fun Geeky Thanksgiving List below. For more Geeky Lists, here are my previous three Thanksgiving lists: (1, 2 and 3).
There's a new movie on tonight, Spring Breakthrough and it stars Keesha Sharp. I find it funny that her character's name in the movie is Monica because she played another Monica on the TV show Girlfriends.
This movie seems interesting. It's about a character that's a little uptight and could definitely use a vacation. And she ends up meeting someone who she probably would have never allowed herself to meet if she hadn't taken that vacation. So yeah, I want to see this and see how her life changes by taking the time to relax and enjoy the moment.
Spring Breakthrough 7:00 PM EST Hallmark Movies & Mystery Channel

I don't know why I always seem to forget that Erin Cahill was the Pink Power Ranger from Power Rangers Time Force. However, that's a topic for a different post, this is Weekend Films and she's co-starring with Marco Grazzini in a new baseball theme romantic comedy, Hearts in the Game.
I'm sure Hazel will be professional but it has to be difficult at least initially trying to work with her ex-boyfriend Diego and try to get his career back on track. And I'm sure they will reconnect which makes me think that their high school break up was probably due to some sort of misunderstanding. Regardless, it will be interesting to see how they end up back together because we all know it's going to happen. I just love watching these Hallmark movies.
Hearts in the Game 8:00 PM EST Hallmark Channel
Starring: Erin Cahill, Marco Grazzini, Sarah Smyth, Todd Thomson, Jason Fernandes and more
Director: Stacey N. Harding

Description:

Why does it feel like this week just zipped by? Well, it's the weekend, what movies are you going to watch? There's two that I want to see: A Pinch of Portugal and Evil Dead Rise.
The first movie, A Pinch of Portugal is a romantic comedy set around food, cooking, love and romance and a great location. It looks like Anna is going to get a lot of support and possibly a little romance when she has to take over a cooking show. This looks really cute and romantic movie. The second one Evil Dead Rise is the latest horror installment in the Evil Dead series. An estranged relationship between sisters takes center stage but it looks like their reunion will be short-lived (no pun intended) if they can't survive all the ghastly horrors that are attacking them.
These seem like good picks, what movies are you going to watch?

Starring: Heather Hemmens, Luke Mitchell, Martina Laird, Johnna Dias-Watson, Amy Louise Pemberton, Duarte Gomes, Eric Geynes and more

It's Saturday and that means new movies. What movies are you watching this weekend? I haven't posted a Weekend Films in a while because there hasn't been a lot new movies released that have interested me. Well, I'm glad to say there are three new movies that I'm interested in seeing: Renfield, The Pope's Exorcist and The Wedding Cottage.
The first movie, Renfield is a horror comedy that centers on the titular character who seems very much tired of working for Dracula. Who can blame him and despite the power perks of working for Dracula, it doesn't seem like a good job at all. The second, The Pope's Exorcist is a horror movie. Although nothing will ever beat The Exorcist which was released in 1973, this does seem like an interesting movie with the Pope uncovering a secret that's linked to a possession. The last movie is The Wedding Cottage is a romantic comedy that centers on a wedding planner that's trying to get the perfect location for her clients but has the deal with the owner who has no desire to re-open it. This seems like a cute movie and I think this is the first time that Erin Krakow and Brendan Penny starred in a movie together.
So, what movies are you watching today?

What are you doing to enjoy the holidays? Are you spending time with family and friends or enjoying some quality time alone? Are you going to enjoy some of the holiday sales? I've already seen good things on sale.
However you're celebrating, I want to wish everyone a wonderful holiday and a fantastic day. I hope your day is filled with fun, laughter and good food. And if you're looking for something to watch, below is my Geeky Holiday List with a few shows and movies.
Happy Saturday! What are your weekend movie plans? There are two new movies I want to see: Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania and Welcome to Valentine. Although the trailer for the Ant-Man movie still feels like a Star Wars movie, I really am interested in seeing it. As for the second movie Welcome to Valentine, it's a romantic comedy set around a road trip.
It's so cold today, I'll have to make sure I bundle up before I go out to the movies but I'm seeing Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania today I already have my ticket. And this evening I'll be warm and cozy wrapped up in a blanket watching Welcome to Valentine. So, what movies are you watching today?

February is the month of Black History, Love, Cold Weather and of course new movies. What movies are you watching this weekend? There are three that I'm interested in seeing: Knock at the Cabin, Sweeter Than Chocolate and The Amazing Maurice.
The first movie, Knock on the Cabin seems terrifying because you don't know if the people who showed up at your cabin are telling the truth or not about preventing the apocalypse. And if they are, would you be able to sacrifice one of your family members to save the world? Or do you let the world end?
As for the second movie, Sweeter Than Chocolate, it's a romantic comedy centering around chocolates that bring true love. Whether that's true or not, a reporter finds interest in the story and the chocolatier. The last movie, The Amazing Maurice is an animated movie that seems like a fun take on the old pied piper tale. It's centered around a talking cat, his rat friends and his piper friend who have been pulling off cons when they stumble upon something sinister.
All three movies seems very interesting: apocalyptic horror, chocolate and romance and a fairy tale. What movies are you watching this weekend?

It's been awhile since I've posted a Weekend Film. There are three movies that I'm interested in seeing: M3GAN, The Pale Blue Eye and The Wedding Veil: Expectations.
M3GAN is a sci-fi horror movie with an advanced robot that seems to take being a friend and protector too far. The Pale Blue Eye is a horror mystery movie that centers around murders at a military school. And last is The Wedding Veil: Expectations, it's the fourth film in the romantic comedy movie series and this time it seems a new addition may be added to Avery and Peter's family.
These seem like interesting movies and I really want to see them. I'm not sure I can go to the theatre today to see M3GAN but I'm definitely going to watch the other two since they're on Netflix and Hallmark. What movies are you watching this weekend?

Happy Weekend! What's everyone's movie plans? There are a lot of movies out this weekend but not a lot that I want to see. Here are the three that I'm interested in: Ask Me to Dance, Pumpkin Everything and The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry. They're all in the romance genre.
Ask Me to Dance is a dance movie (hence the title) which is a genre of movies I love (one of these days I'm going to post a picture of my dance movie collection), it seems like a fun romantic comedy of two people trying to find love along with their love of dancing. Pumpkin Everything centers on a writer who went back to her small town to look after her grandfather which I believe during pumpkin season and also finds love. The last movie is The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry, when I read the book (or tried, it was a Did Not Finish) I couldn't connect with the story and found what I read to be boring. However, the trailer for the movie which seems really interesting makes me want to give the book a second read.
Well, these are the movies that I want to watch, what movies are you interested in seeing?

New Year’s Eve is getting closer. Will the fortune teller’s prophecy come true? Will they meet and fall in love?
It's the Weekend! I so need these two days to relax and watch a few movies.
And for this Weekend Films there are seven movies that seem really interesting: Bros, Devil's Workshop, Girlfriendship, Hocus Pocus 2, Smile, Spirit Halloween and The Good House.

The first movie, Fly Away With Me is a romantic comedy following two neighbors who have pets in a "no pets" apartment building. The second movie is Lou, it's a action drama the centers around a little girl being abducted and her mom getting help in rescuing her from her very mysterious neighbor.

So far, I've really been enjoying all these new Hallmark movies and tonight's movie The Secrets of Bella Vista looks like another interesting one. With Tess not only finding out she has inherited an apple orchard but also finding out she has a sister too. Looks like there is a little mystery with Tess (and maybe her sister) looking for a treasure possibly in hopes of saving the orchard. I can't wait to see this.
