Ultimate Ghostface Figure! We got them in this week at work along with some other Halloween related fun things. and being I'm a Scream fan I had to bring one home. I have the original McFarlane Movie Maniacs Series 2 Ghostface back in the late 90s early 2000s which I absolutely love and Now I picked up this one that looks really cool. So I was of course happy to get it.

So yes we went to see the new horror movie Abigail earlier this week. I was like little ballerina vampire? sure why not?

the premises of the movie might sound a bit silly but it is actually pretty good! I really enjoyed it. I don't feel that it was a horror movie it is billed as such but I didn't feel it was I didn't find it scary and there was no real jumps or anything I kinda of felt it was a bit more of a dark comedy. It had more humor in it then scares in my opinion.

They also leaned into the silly idea of the movie itself with the characters commenting on how crazy and outlandish the situation is involving a little ballerina vampire.

Your basic story is this group of criminals are hired to kidnap this little girl and hold her for ransom for 24 hours they soon find out that not everything is as it seems when they are locked into this mansion and are set upon but a cute lil pink tutu wearing vampire as she prances around tearing them apart one by one.

the movie has some really nice practical and visual effects as well as some nice make-up work too.

The acting was good too from all involved especially from Alisha Weir who plays the title character of Abigail. I bet she had tons of fun working on this movie. but everyone did an amazing job.

but yeah I thought it was a good movie it was crazy and interesting and I felt it was a bit different then the usual vampire stuff. So if you are curious about the movie I would say give it it watch.

So we finally went to see the next chapter of the MonsterVerse GodzillaxKong: The New Empire. I was super excited to go see this because as a Godzilla fan I have been enjoying this series. Also yes there was plenty of collectable goodies for this movie which of course you can see here.

So as for the movie itself I would say I pretty much loved it I thought it was great myself. I loved all the monster action and all the smashing and crashing. You can tell how these movies evolved from the 2014 Godzilla to now being in the 2014 movie it was very I'd say human centric and as they went on the monsters pretty much took center stage. I feel that the human involvement in this movie was very minimal and were there when they needed to be. and that Warner Bros was all "they want monsters we'll give them monsters!" because I feel this was like 85% monster action!

Now with the story I do feel much like the previous Godzilla vs Kong that the story is focused more on Kong then Godzilla. Kong is the main character in this movie and does get the most screen time. but as for the story itself if kinda is telling two at the same time a Kong Story and a Godzilla story and going back and forth until the 2 meet up again. I don't know the timeline of this I don't remember if they mention anything but I think it does take place shortly after the previous movie maybe a year or 2?

Your basic story is this Kong is living in the Hollow Earth while Godzilla is above. Kong is still lonely believing he is the last of his kind until he finds a hidden underground area with many like himself but it is ruled by a ruthlessly despotic ape known only as "The Skar King" Kong of course comes into conflict with him and gets the upper hand for the moment until the Skar King unleashes his ultimate weapon a kiju named Shimo who has a devastating ice attack causing Kong to retreat and seek help from the only one who can match Shimo's power the King of the Monsters Godzilla! after a short scuffle Godzilla agrees to Help Kong and the Monster action goes into full swing!

Now I like I said I love this movie I thought it was every exciting and very fun and delved more into the mythology of the characters of Godzilla and Kong I loved how they introduced some more new monsters like The Skar King and the little minikong Suko who was a real bastard when you meet him but of course became a friend of Kong's as Kong earned his trust. I also love the return of Mothra as well. The animation and character work for this movie was impressive too especially with Kong and the other ape characters as well as Godzilla who seemed to have a greater sense of motion in this movie as you can see him both running and jumping.

Also like I said the monster action is amazing Ken Watanabe's character Dr. Ishiro Serizawa said it best in the first movie of this series back in 2014 "Let them Fight" and this movie takes that to heart and lets them fight! the fight in Egypt is alot of fun but its pretty much not until they get to Rio and then everything goes crazy! but it is so much fun to watch and I would say it is very satisfying all the smashing and crashing and buildings going flying as the monsters tear everything apart.

but in the end this is just an amazingly fun movie. There is plenty of action and its exciting and goes deeper into the lore and I feel it is having lots of fun expanding on this world and this universe. One thing with these movies is I would like to see more classic characters appear like Anguirus and maybe Gigan but I also like how they are creating newer monster for these movies too. I'm just enjoying everything in these movies and loving it all! but yeah if you are enjoying the MonsterVerse as much as I am then I would highly recommend this one.

So yeah with our viewing of Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire there was plenty of collectable goodies!! cups, buckets and even plushies! and I was told to get what ever I wanted so I did! we picked up all things Godzilla of course.

Now as for the Bucket I don't think you can call it a bucket it more of a collectable tin. it's rectangular and about 11-12inches tall and of course is made of metal. As to what it is? I think its suppose to be some kind of monster containment unit and this one would be to house Godzilla. there are plenty of Monarch logos and codes and classification wording on it. Also there is some really nice Godzilla artwork on the inside you can't see it clearly in the video so I had to focus a light down the top of it so it would give you a better look at things. Also you could get 3 different ones Godzilla, Kong and Skar King. I have to say I like it its cool and different then the usually stuff you get.

Now as for the Cup it is the regular size one it say 32oz on the bottom which is roughly 946 milliliters. It is another super glossy photo cup with a character wrap around image Shimo, Godzilla, Kong and Skar King and has the movies logo on it near the bottom. The topper is really nice and extremely detailed I think it is one of the most detailed toppers we ever got. they of course had different ones like the tins they had Godzilla, Kong and Skar King and of course I went 100% Godzilla.

Now as for the Plushie when I seen them I was like "OMG! they're so cute!!" and I had to get one of course. so I looked through them and of course picked out a Godzilla. They had a couple of others one of Kong and one of the minikong character Suko. They looked good too but I of course just wanted a Godzilla. but yeah he is cute and is about 8-9 inches so he is not super small. but that is it got the GxK stuff I'm really happy with everything we got.

When on our way to see Madame Web we found this on the Hot Wheels pegs when we were leaving toys at Walmart Tuesday night. Now I'm not a fan of Monster High I don't have any of the dolls or watched any of the shows/movies I have like one other Monster High thing that someone gave me but I thought this looked cool so I picked it. So Monster High fans out there keep a look out for this if you want it for your collection.

So we went to see that new spy movie Argylle I seen the trailers and thought that it looked pretty good and it all kinds of people in it that you generally like so I thought we should check it out. and I would have to say that I thought it was a pretty great movie. I feel that it has a little bit of everything in it. Its a action movie as well as a dramatic thriller and at times it was also a bit of a comedy.

Your basic story is as follows Bryce Dallas Howard plays a writer Elly Conway who is world famous for her series of spy novels called "Argylle" which is all about the adventures of a James Bond type of character known as "Agent Argylle" (played by Henry Cavill he basically plays the character as she pictures him in her minds eye) and while she is finishing work on her 5th book in the series an secret evil organizations just like in her stories comes after her because of something that she has written and they want to capture her and find out what she know about their nefarious plots! she had her cat Alfie are rescued by a real life spy Aidan Wilde (played by Sam Rockwell) and her, Alfie and Aidan go on this globe trotting adventure to discover the truth why she is so important and why the evil organizations wants her.

The best way I could kind of describe it this is it is a bit of a spy action movie like James Bond almost but parts of it did kind of remind me of the recent Sandra Bullock movie The Lost City, also there was a little bit of like Jason Bourne/The Bourne Identity in there and as well as the what I like to call Matthew Vaughn's "serious silliness"

Now like I said I thought this movie was great! the story is really good there is there is a nice mystery to figure out plenty of twists and turns and some surprises. I did have a few gasps at some of the reveals as the story unfolded, it really kept my interest and kept me guessing a bit on things you do kinda of have to pay attention to the story a bit or you might miss something being I do feel that this is a bit layered in its storytelling.

I thought the acting was great it has pretty much a A-List cast of all people that you would generally like and enjoy in a movie and I thought everyone played their parts perfectly. The action, fights and stunts are all pretty crazy and pretty cool like the train fight when Elly meets Aidan and that little yellow truck Henry Cavill drives across the roof tops I don't know how that thing survived that but some of the action was very comical I though like the hallway escape dance number thing with the smoke was different and the oil skating did give me a laugh. but that was part of it some of it was kinda outlandish to the point of being funny and there was I thought some good action movie humor in there too between Sam Rockwell and Bryce Dallas Howard's characters.

I seen alot of people online not like it and I don't see why. I feel this is a big fun exciting summer movie in the middle of the winter. I personally really liked it it had great action, had some humor and a story that kept me engaged and curious about what was going to happen next. So me personally I'd say if you are interested in seeing it or curious about it I would say give it a chance.

Also there is a very interesting mid credits scene at the end of the movie also.

Not only did we go to see Disney's Wish This past Tuesday but we also stayed to see the Musical Extravaganza Wanka. Now I'll say I'm not a huge fan of the original movie I've seen both versions Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory 1971 and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory 2005 I seen them both a few times their not bad movies its just not something I fell in love with. Probably because I didn't see the original when I was a kid and only really watched it for the first time I think when the Remake came around. So if I'm not a fan why go see this?

It was the tag line "Discover how Willy became Wonka" I thought it would be interesting to go see this somewhat origin story and that is what you get a young Willy Wonka off on his dream to become the best chocolate maker in the world the problems and pitfalls he has on the way how he meets the oompa loompas and how the factory gets started.

Now what did I think of this movie? honestly? I thought it was great! I actually enjoyed this way more then I did the original movies. I felt this was fun, exciting and just like chocolate a lil nutty lol It was actually a weirdly interesting movie at times.

I would have to say the movie is also a visual spectacle with the amazing dance numbers and production design like the store set up with everything being made of candy and chocolate was a pretty crazy set piece I thought. Also visual effects was impressive especially Hugh Grant's Oompa-Loompa character Lofty. You see him in the trailer but its way better when you see him on the big screen how they did that so seamlessly was I thought really cool.

Like I said the music was great there is a mix of new and old songs the dance choreography was I thought really well done and everyone in those big numbers deserves some praise.

The acting was great in this too Timothée Chalamet who played Willy Wonka was I thought very perfect for this role and absolutely channeled Gene Wilder while playing a younger version of that character I could see this younger version of Wonka growing into the Gene Wilder version of the character

the movie had quite a few funny moments There were a few running jokes in this especially one that involved Keegan-Michael Key as a somewhat bumbling Chief of Police who gets fatter every time you see him thanks to his chocolate addiction

and also Mr.Bean himself Rowan Atkinson also makes makes an appearance as a somewhat crooked Father Julius.

but like I said I thought this was a great movie and actually enjoyed it more then the original movie actually. So if your a fan of the original movie I would say give this a watch. Its fun, bright and very sweet just like the chocolate that flows through it.

oh also there is a lil thing that plays during the credits with Hugh Grant's Oompa-Loompa character

Of course with our viewing of The Marvels there was collectable goodies!! They had cups and buckets I was wondering if they were going to have some Goose plushies which would have been fun because who wouldn't want their very own Flerken but sadly they didn't so we just picked up the cup and bucket.

Now we are going to do things a lil bit differently from now on becasue no more pictures we have video now so you can see things in better detail (hopefully)

The buckets of course were metal and embossed/stamped out ones that we gotten before. The bucket is very similar to all the other ones we have been getting. It has the movie logo on the front and of course all 3 of the Marvels: Captain Marvel, Ms.Marvel and Photon. the bucket is nice and also has a nice purple on the inside.

Now as for the cups they are very similar to the one we got for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness its really nice and surprisingly glossy they usually have like a texture to them but this one is super smooth. It’s one of the more smaller midsize ones it doesn’t say how big it is but I’d say its 320z on the bottom(which is like 946ml or so?) on the front It again has all 3 women on it and the movies title near the bottom As for the topper they did have a choice of all 3 women and normally I would have gotten Captain Marvel but I have her on the actual Captain Marvel cup so I picked Ms.Marvel for this one So I was super happy to get these of course.

So yeah we went to finally see Trolls Band Together (Trolls3) earlier this week and I think that might have been the last day it was playing being we were the only 4 people there for the evening showing lol also there was some collectable goodies which you can see hear about here.

But as for the movie itself I thought it was great I do enjoy the Trolls movies I went to see the first one and we had to watch the second one online at home because of covid so I was of course interested in going to see this one. I think they are fun, silly and at times hilarious they also have some of that weird randomness that will make you laugh as well. They are also musicals in away and do have a amazing soundtrack. I feel they are pretty much feel good movies that anyone can enjoy.

Now in this one they expand more on the Trolls world and introduce other types of characters who live there. They introduce these like puppet/muppet type creatures that for some reason to me felt and looked extremely horrifying I was seriously like WTF?!? I don't know why I think it was just the way they looked in animation and it looked a bit off. They then had these like Human type characters they weren't fully human of course but they looked human in a way their look reminded me of another type of toy I don't remember what they are called I can see them in my head but can't think of their name? They were like bendy with the thin arms and legs? Thats what they looked like. Anyway they are the movies main villains and they are named Velvet and Veneer (Voiced by Amy Schumer and Andrew Rannells this was a good roll for Amy Schumer being you couldn't see her face lol)

The basic story is at the first they are getting ready for the wedding of their friends Bridget and Gristle when Branch's long forgotten brother John Dory who returns looking for help to save their other brother Floyd from the evil Velvet and Veneer who are draining him of his life force and talent so they can be rich and famous pop stars. Branch and Poppy agree to help him and they go on another wild musical adventure to reunite the rest of the brothers and once again get the "Band Together" known as "Brozone" in order to save their brother and stop the impostors Velvet and Veneer.

Now the animation,voice acting and music and pretty much everything is amazing this! and I feel that it was great to expand more on this world and the Trolls Also not only that but the story of Velvet and Veneer reminds me kind of like the whole Milli Vanilli thing that happened I wouldn't surprised if that inspired these characters and this story it just seemed similar to me.

but yeah the movie is lots of fun and funny and weird at times and it is what you should expect from the Trolls series it has alot of boyband jokes and references and is just a great movie. so if you loved the other ones I would say you would love this one too so give it a watch if you want

Also there is a lil mid credits scene too so don't miss that

One thing we look for when we go away on trips and stuff is we look at gaming things and see if there is anything that we want for a good price. I didn't see anything for Playstation that I wanted to get but GameStop did have select Switch games on sale! so I bought my very first Switch game! so I got The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild brand new for $50! which I thought was a great price! they had some other ones too like I think Luigi's Mansion and Animal Crossing I think? but I happily picked the Zelda one and for that price you can't go wrong!

I also picked up Freakazoid! Season 1 on DVD. They didn't have Season 2 which kinda sucks.. I was surprised to see the Season 1 so I grabbed it up I'll probably have to look on Amazon or ebay for a Season 2. I have the Series digitally but its good to have it physically also being I am a physical media type of girl.

here is some Playstation Merch that I found in the eletronics department of Wal-Mart! A lil Astro's Playroom plush! he is about I'd say about 6 inches or so and he is super cute! the only thing is he was a bit pricey being he was like $20 with tax. which I do think is a bit much for him but I got him anyway being I liked him so I was happy.

So we went to see the new horror movie The First Omen which is a prequel to the 1976 movie The Omen. I do like the original movie and the remake as well we went to see The Omen remake on opening night June 6, 2006 (thats right 6/6/06) now were I thought the original one and the remake were good the others weren't that good Damien: Omen II was alright and the 3rd Omen III: The Final Conflict was just plain awful especially the ending. I remember vaguely there was a 4th one but also some failed TV projects too.

but being The Omen is a interesting franchise I wanted to see this one. I can say I wasn't disappointed as I mentioned it is a prequel to the original movie and focuses on the character of Margaret (played by Nell Tiger Free) who is going to become a nun and if brought to Rome to serve the church but while there she encounters overwhelming darkness and learns the secrets of her past and ultimately becomes the mother to the antichrist who is known as Damien in the original movies.

Now I can say that this was very scary there were a few good jumps in it though but ultimately it is just very creepy and has alot of disturbing imagery but over all I think it totally captures the feel, heart and soul of the original movie. I feel that it was shot and written with so much love for the original 1976 movie.

The music is a big part of it too and you can tell they didn't want to change it to much from the original score. I feel they wanted this movie to be perfectly matched to the original one like to the point it feels that this was made in the 70s and you can watch this one and then watch the original and it should feel like it hasn't skipped a beat like the original is actually a sequel to this.

There is alot of things that are totally Omen related in it visual style and some of the things that happen are reminiscent of the original movies the hanging scene gave me chills because it is very reminiscent and almost identical to the one in the 1976 movie. Also the scene where the guy get cut in half is a really cool visual effect in this and your like "oh wow!"

but other then that the acting was pretty great and I thought the movie was over all really good and it is the perfect set up for the original movie it even has a bit of a spine tingling ending. but even with the ending it does leave you with some questions tho.. but over all it was good and if you enjoyed the original movie I would highly recommend it.

Also while I was away I picked up the WWE Ultimate Edition Asuka much like the Ronda Rousey I picked up a few years ago the figure is very detailed and I love how it comes with the oni mask and her furry jacket too! I don't think there is alot of Asuka maybe 3-4? but if you are looking to get one this is the one you should get!
