I am spending the weekend away from Vancouver (in Victoria) and I am having a great time. Still, I did not forget the trailers for you all, so I do expect the minimum amount of praise … just kidding! Here’s what I found this week!
Movies
Peter Rabbit
Domhnall would be the only reason I’d watch this …
Tomb Raider
Okay, so, I LOVE Alicia Vikander. But I also love Lara Croft … I had like action figurines as a kid and I basically wanted to be her and … I am not super psyched about this? I just … when I look at her, I don’t think Lara.
Just Getting Started
Morgan Freeman is awesome … but he keeps doing same-ish movies now.
Cook Off!
Interesting format.
November Criminals
I am curious about it, but at the same time something doesn’t feel right.
The Guardian Brothers
I mean … the voice actors are all mostly award winning and amazing people but … I was hoping for at least one Chinese person? Is that really that weird to ask considering the story?
Isle of Dogs
Oh, the weirdness of Anderson movies. I like it.
Murder on the Orient Express
Still surprised how excited I am about this.
The Meyerowitz Story
Meh, I don’t really have any thoughts on this.
The Secret Scripture
This looks intense.
Wonderstruck
Not sure what to think of it.
Revolt
Ugh … always those machines. Technology making life difficult … such a new concept.
All I See Is You
It started and I felt creeped out.
1922
I feel like someone was like “Let’s make ALL the King books into films this year”.
TV Shows
Brooklyn Nine-Nine (Season 5)
I wasn’t aware how much I had missed this until I heard the theme. NINE NINE!
The Flash (Season 4)
Me watching this is just like “spot the all locations you visited”
The Punisher
This is the reason I binged all superhero shows. I need this soon!
Grey’s Anatomy (Season 14)
Let’s face it. I just can’t believe this is still a thing.
Once Upon a Time (Season 7)
Andrew single-handedly managed to get me excited for this season.
Hope you all had a great week! What are you going to watch?
Life and Other Disasters 
okay, so not gonna lie, I *love* the Beatrix Potter books and Peter Rabbit in particular… but man that trailer was killing my childhood- my reaction was just “nope!” And yeah that Lara Croft trailer didn’t make me think of Lara Croft either. The action looks good though. And I get what you mean about November Criminals. Murder on the orient express looks awesome!! hahaha your comments on revolt- spot on. Ah I really like the look of Punisher- the only problem is I haven’t binged all those shows yet 😉 Annnnd now I fancy watching OUAT again…

I don’t think I’ve ever read a Beatrix Potter book. I think that’s one of those things that’s just more common in some countries than others.
I just wasn’t as impressed with Lara as I had hoped for, which in turn made me sad.
Andrew is one of the good guys for sure. I am so pumped for him as Henry (and my plan to go see the OUAT set as often as I can before leaving Vancity)

Ugh Grey’s should have ended the moment they killed Mark. They’re just recycling plotlines now and it’s so boring. I’m glad I quit the show.
I’m getting tired of all these reboots, can’t we have some originality.
I keep saying this but David Suchet will always be Poirot to me but I’m still so excited to watch Murder on the Orient Express.
How was Victoria?

Grey’s is terrible at this point, I am so over it. I just want Meredith and Alex to get together and be done with it.
Victoria was amazing! We went whale watching and took strolls around downtown. I really enjoyed it 😀

1. Peter Rabbit: a bastardization of a story I used to know very well.
2. Lara Croft: It feels like it’s taking cues from the original Angelina Jolie film, but hopefully it’s better. Looks pretty cool, though.
3. Isle of Dogs: I’m in.
4. Murder on the Orient Express: so can’t wait. Read the book for it. And met one of the actors.
5. Wonderstruck: if it’s an Amazon movie, does that mean you can only get it through Amazon?
6. All I See Is You: Not sure if I’m in or not.
7. 1922: Tried reading this at the end of a Stephen King binge, so I was not in the mood and didn’t finish it. Still, looks cool. I’ll check it out and review it.
8. Punisher: YES!!!
BTW, how’s Supernatural coming along.

Okay, HOW DARE YOU insult the Lara Croft movie with Angelina Jolie. She was the bomb! (Admittedly, I didn’t need the second one, but she was my hero in the first. I wanted to be her and she at least looks a whole lot more like Lara is supposed to look)
I haven’t watched any more Supernatural …

No time or no inclination?

I saw the trailer for Peter Rabbit earlier in the week and it’s just so, so cute – I can’t wait to go and watch it! Also I’m totally trash for Grey’s Anatomy and I’m so happy we have a trailer, super excited to watch the next season 😊

I am just over most of the drama in Grey’s by now. Some of it is more than useless and it has ruined some of the characters for me, which just makes me sad to think of.

That is kind of true and it is sad plus so many of my favourite characters have died. I honestly just want to see how it ends!
