Talkie Tuesday: Long Lost Christmas

 

"Love's a risk, but it's the one thing that makes life worth living."

 

Hello everyone!

 

We only have a few days left until Christmas ACTUALLY arrives.

 

How crazy is that?!

 

I have no idea where the time has gone, but I'll say this: it obviously had a VERY good time, all things considered.

 

There's only about ten days left before the year turns as well, and I'm over here thinking to myself how and where.

 

But me maudlin will certainly not make this blog post write itself now, will it?

 

I've decided to finish off my Christmas movie marathon with the segment of Hallmark that I tend to enjoy more than Countdown to Christmas, which is Miracles of Christmas.

 

I don't know, the mysteries seem to get me!

 

And Long Lost Christmas might not have fired on all cylinders, but it definitely fired on some.

Talkie Tuesday: South Beach Love

 

"Sometimes two ingredients may not look like they go together,

but just give it a chance and it might surprise you."

 

Hello everyone!

 

As we move further and further into autumn (we'll be transitioning into daylight saving time soon!) I find myself eyeing Hallmark's movie schedule more and more, because lo and behold they're headed right into Christmas-ville already.

 

I can understand them, in a way. That particular holiday makes up about half of their yearly production and they need to make sure everything they make gets out to the audience.

 

But come ON. Starting mid-October and never really having any Halloween movies is a bit much, even for Hallmark!

 

Still, it is what it is, and maybe at that point I'll end up watching other movies instead of what they have in their lineup, because as of right now I still make sure to double check the schedule and then work through if I want or don't want to watch it.

 

Tonight's topic was on the want to watch list because of the two leads, and I have to say I'm not regretting it, but there were definitely some interesting choices made in the movie.

 

South Beach Love, coming up!

 

Talkie Tuesday: Matching Hearts

"Don't put off being happy."

Hello everyone!

As you know, I have this thing about Hallmark.

As in, I like to watch their movies.

I have, however, found I need to dial back a little and only pick the ones that feature cast I know from previous projects, which may sound limiting given that I'm sure others, of whom I don't know any of the cast, are just as wonderful.

But at some point you just have to draw a line, I guess!

Tonight I'm going to be talking about a new little pet project Hallmark launched just for Valentine's, a series of movies under the title Love Ever After, which only premiered this year as something new they're trying. This includes a full month of Valentine-themed movies for viewers to enjoy.

I won't be doing a full review of ALL four of the movies from the series because, like I said, I kind of need a breather every now and again, but I did tune in to this weekend's choice.

So open up that box of chocolates, because Matching Hearts is up next.
