Mandy knows best

Miniseries-Netflix This documentary was made by the same guy who created Extremely Wicked. Its extremely creepy too, it actually shows videos and pictures and has interviews that Ted Bundy gave. It is truly him talking like he is the smartest guy in the world and the rest of us will never find out what he did. Well, we did find out what he did and he died because of it. The day of his execution was basically a tailgate party (which is a different kind of sick.) The documentary was split into 4 different parts but none of them were super informative. I don't think I learned anything from the documentary and it got the same kind of backlash as Zac got, saying we don't need to talk about Ted Bundy, we should be talking about the victims. The only good thing that came from Ted Bundy is that he eventually talked to cops, which gave us information on psychopathy. He did try to help catch The Green River Killer, but even that was just a way to avoid execution and I don't ...

Movie-Netflix This is the movie that has been talked about for about 2 year. Zac Efron playing Ted Bundy! Is he too hot, can he get the dead eyes that all psychopaths have, will we be able to ignore Zac and believe him as Ted? Lily Collins, Haley Joel Osment, Jim Parsons and John Malkovich were fun additions. I didn't even recognize Haley and John at first. Now, I've read Anne Rule's book and heard a lot of podcasts about Ted Bundy and also have done some of my own research because I live in Salt Lake City and we were the first people to catch him. I have always been fascinated by Elizabeth Kloepfer (known as Meg Anders for a long time to protect her identity.) I used to think that she was just so beaten down that she ignored all the signs that she was basically living with a serial killer and letting her daughter be around said killer. But after years of learning, I believe that she was just honestly tricked. She was looking for the opposite of her ex-husband and Ted...

TV Show Obviously one of the biggest pop culture phenomenons ever.  I didn't watch from the beginning because I didn't have HBO and because it was "inappropriate". But everyone around me was watching it, so I started watching with my parents. I even named my new puppy Ghost. Obviously everyone loves the Starks and Jon Snow. But my favorites were always Jora and Samwell. I guess its because I like loyalty and they are loyal to the end. I was never as big of a Daenerys fan as my husband and dad were. I mean, its easy to say now, but there were a lot of signs that she would turn out more like her dad and brother. Sorry, not to give anything away, But the show was amazing until they decided to wrap it up and throw everything in to 4 episodes. I do like Jon Snow too! I thought he carried the show beautifully until the end. I also love Sansa's character progression. She went from very childish to being right were she was meant to be. Even though a lot of bad things ...

Podcast This podcast is about a wrongful conviction case. The murder took place in Georgia in 1998, in the midst of racial tension and false testimonies. The case is tragic because there are 4 murders in this town in 2 years but the person who was first convicted was convicted from no real evidence points to him. There is no DNA and he had an alibi, but he was also new to town and therefore suspicious. The case itself is very interesting, the podcasters are too obvious though. They repeat information a lot and say dumb things that are well, obvious. I did like that it was short enough to listen to in a day because a lot of these kind of things draw it out and make it easy to forget what was previously talked about. It's only 8 relatively short episodes and they just state the facts and move on. I do think they focused too much on the second murder because they focused only on his race and his family's history. I know they were trying to bring up the racism that led to his c...

TV show This was one of those shows that I always knew I would like it. I like all of the shows on this channel. Freeform is very good at creating drama that you can't turn away from. I watched this show all night some nights. And that is saying a lot because the people make terrible decisions! I mean, I know all shows do whatever they can to make drama but sometimes just turning the other direction is the more natural option. I really love all the different kinds of characters, although Mariana is my favorite and then Wyatt and AJ and I have no idea what all these guys see in Callie. I mean she's cute and all but I don't like her style and she is always so serious. Oh also Gabe is crazy attractive too. I don't like how the mom's seem like they're all open and communicative but they both make choices without each other all the time and then get mad at each other. It's really dumb because people don't talk about everything together. No body has time f...

Movies I'm going to talk about all of the Avengers movie to this point because I'm slowly watching all of the movies in order in honor of Avengers End Game which I will not see until I am ready! I love Iron Man, RDJ is my favorite Avenger! And the first movie was the perfect way to start this trip into the Marvel Universe. The Incredible Hulk just isn't a good enough story line to make a full movie with. The movie sucks... but the Hulk is a great dynamic character! I even love Edward Norton and Mark Ruffalo playing him. Iron Man 2 is our introduction to War Machine/Iron Patriot and Black Widow who are also favorites. It watches Tony come to grips with his own mortality. He kind of goes through a mid-life crisis... Its more dramatic than the first one. Thor is the most handsome Avenger... He is so pretty! And I love Natalie Portman and Kat Dennings! They really do make the movie. They are so funny, and this was my favorite movie to this point even though the story ...

Netflix movie Noah Centineo is very big right now, he's been in so many Netflix movies and I even recently started watching the Fosters (although I didn't know he was on it because he joined in season 3.) I didn't like this one. I love Camila Mendes and Laura Marano, but the story line was terrible! They do this thing in these high school rom-coms where they move things too fast. They skip really important things and add the dumbest. For example, Brooks (my favorite guys name ever) meets Shelby and they literally talk twice and then minutes after he breaks up with his girl friend they kiss like they've been waiting for this moment for years. Like it was always meant to happen, which it was for him but she was not in on this plan. I don't get it. In another one of his movies, they send animal gifs back and forth and consider themselves funny. They aren't doing anything to be funny. Tell a joke to be funny! But maybe this is just about the generation, kids...
