A Cute Little Tag

Doing a tag again! Saw this cute one on Aramis lovely blog and thought, why not make this one. I know it's from a long time ago, but I don't mind. :)

1. Do you have a favourite fictional couple? (if so, why do you like them)

I have so many. But this will be Alice and Leslie (he's a guy, he has the name of a girl) from Wonderland Creek, my favourite book all time. It's from Lynn Austin.

2. If you could have any animal (safely) as a pet, you would have an....

I would have a horse of course. But a cute dog I would love too.

3. You get to live in Middle Earth, what race are you a member of?

I think I would be an wizard, just like Harry Potter, because it's are so amazing!

4. In a ideal situation (you don't have to worry about living too far from family or money concerns) where would you live? (It can be fictional.)

I would live in a cute little English country house. In England. It must be large for a big family, but it can be old.

5. Do you have a favourite 'vintage' movie (As in filmed before 1960). What is it?

This would be Singin' in the Rain.

6. When you were a little kid, what did you want to be when you grew up?

I wanted to be a lot of things, a nurse (maternity nurse), babysitter and actress.

7. You can be 'the' best at any sport what would you choose?

That would be a proffesional horserider. Kidding, I know all the little things, would love to jump with an horse, but never a sport. I would love to be a runner or do gymnastics.

8. List three things that you wish people knew about you but will never ask. (Or just three random things).

1. I can be very romantic, especially after watching a romantic movie or a cute ship. And I think about romantic things.
2. I'm an Ice Cream fanatic. I can eat a bunch and never get sick of it.
3. I don't really like reading books anymore.

9. Share your favourite quote!

Spiderman: Far From Home

Time for me to do a review again. It's been a long time since I did that.

So, you probably know already which movie I'm reviewing, because the title said so.

I saw Spiderman: Homecoming a month or two ago and I loved it!!! Well, then a few weeks later I found out there was going to be second movie and I was beyond excited!!

I wasn't a big fan of superheroes and that stuff, but after watching Spiderman I kinda did like it a lot. And then I started watching all Marvel movies there where, such as The Avengers (all the movies), Black Panther, Thor, Captain America and much more. I was hooked. Now superheroes are great😍

THERE WILL BE SPOILERS!!! (if you haven't seen the film yet, the text it white. If you wanna see, just click on it and you will see.

Alright, I will start on the real reason of this review.

Let us start with Spiderman. So his real name is Peter Parker and he first appeared in Iron Man 2. He basically didn't had so much screen time, but then there was Spiderman: Homecoming. The film where he played the lead. I just loved that he got his own film. And now a second.
Tom Holland plays Peter Parker/Spiderman and he is amazing. He is the youngest of all who ever played such a big role. Tom always dreamed to play Spiderman when he was little (in a film) and a few years later that dream came true. So dreams do come true, I believe that.
In this film we see that Peter wants to have a break of being Spiderman spoiler alert ! after Tony Stark died. s Spoiler alert over!.
He goes with his classmates on a trip and well obviously there are things happening and Peter has to help out again. I think being Spiderman is a big responsibility and you can't have even a little break.
So, Peter likes a girl named MJ (WHO IS AMAZING) and he really wants to be able to tell his feelings too, but kinda is scared. I will get to MJ later on, she needs a own review in here.
Peter meets a new person named Mysterio (his real name is Quentin) and they become friends, because Peter looks up to him. What he doesn't know is that spoiler alert! Mysterio is actually the bad guy and has planned worst things spoiler alert over!.
Spiderman's suit is dope! just look at the picture, it's so detailed and really amazing. Spiderman gets a new suite, a black one, but I don't like that one. Like the other ones better.
Tom Holland is my celebrity crush 😍 I didn't had one, but now I do :D.

This is the new black suit I was talking about. Not my taste. I do love that it is black, but red suits better with Spiderman.

MJ! I just love her so much. She's sooo cool, friendly and kinda weird but that is what I love about her. In Spiderman: Homecoming she didn't had so much screen time and that's a shame. In this film she does and she rocks.
Well, MJ figures out that Peter is Spiderman and she has suspected it for a long time now. She starts to have feelings for Peter too, but doesn't show it. So, MJ is short for Michelle Jones.
Zendaya (who plays MJ) is just awesome. She's such a great actress and I really love her.
I also love that Tom Holland and Zendaya have such great chemistry and they are truly best friends in real life. That's so cute though.

Told you there where cute. :D

Well, let's go to Mysterio then.
I actually did like him. He seems so nice and kind. BUT he's just pretending. All of it. While I thought he and Peter would save the world together. But actually Peter is saving the world from him.
I didn't expect this at all and that is why I love this film so much, you don't expect it. Maybe some things, but not all.
Jake Gyllenhaal did a marvelous job playing Mysterio. I love that Tom Holland and he a really great friends in real life. Tom did actually say (and this is true) that he wanted to work with Jake some day and it came true. Lucky guy.
Well, nothing to say anymore about Mysterio. Kinda like that name, even though he's the bad guy.
He suits weird, I must say that. I like the body suit, but what he has on his head is weird. It's like a fishbowl 😂😂.

There are weird elements in this film. You got for elements: Earth Elemental, Water Elemental, Air Elemental and Fire Elemental. I must say it makes the film more exciting and much more action, but it's actual scary. Imagine it in real life and you're facing it.
But spoiler alert these elements are actually made by drones, they make the water come up and waves and stuff. It is all plannend by Mysterio, who wants the world think he is the hero who defeat these elements, while that isn't true. Someone created these elements with drones and he just pretends to fight them spoiler alert over!.

All the other classmates are included too, because they go on a trip. And Nick Fury is involved and Peter's aunt May too.
There was an illusion scene too, that was messed up and I felt for Peter. But end well all right.
