Alec Baldwin Vs Rust

 Hwy my lovely Chameleons. In today's blog I want to talk about the event that happened on Thursday, October 21, 2021 with Alec Baldwin and what happened on the set of his new movie, Rust. Before I do, I want to say why I have no weekend blogs this weekend and last weekend. Last weekend I was focus on burning all my music from my Best Of 2021 playlist on 10 CDs and this weekend I am focusing on making sure Dodge gets better. I took Dodge to get fixed on Thursday. I did want to do a Music Review on Tenille Arts new CD that came out yesterday,  But I want to talk about the event that happened on Thursday involving Alec Baldwin. This is not a rant. I am going to say everything what happened and my thoughts on what should happen with Alec and the crew. Oh, and Alec was going to produce this movie with his production team.

On Thursday, October 21, 2021 in Santa Fe, New Mexico, Alec Baldwin was on the set of his new movie, Rust. In this movie he plays Harland Rust. The movie is about Harland Rust rescues his 13 year old grandson, Lucas whom is sentence to be hung cause of a murder he committed. The movie was set to come out in November of this year, but I think it will come out next year.

At 1:29pm on Thursday Alec was shooting a scene and was handed a prop firearm gun. Now, if you use guns on sets they are not to have real bullets and are filled with blanks. Fake bullets (Don't know a better name) and accidentally killed the cinematographer, Haylina Hutchins and injured the director, Joel Souza.

At 1:50pm on the same day the Santa Fey's Sheriffs office was called about a real shooting on the movie set of Rust. They called a helicopter to pick up Haylina to take her to University of New Mexico hospital and was pronounced dead. An ambulance took Joel to Christus St. Vincent Regional Medical Centre for his injuries.

We got more updates the next day, that Hannah Gutierre Reed, the prop person set three guns on the cart outside where they were shooting. According to the search warrant the assistant director, Dave Halls brought one of the guns to Alec, not knowing it was loaded with real live bullets. Dave said that the gun was a "cold gun". On the same day, October 22, Alec wrote on Twitter in 2 tweets "1- There are no words to convey my shock and sadness regarding the tragic accident that took the life of Haylina Hutchins, a wife, mother, and deeply admired colleague of ours. I'm fully coopering with the police investigation to address how this tragedy occurred and" and continued the tweet by "2- I am in touch with her husband, offering my support to him and his family. My heart is broken for her husband, their son, and all who knew and loved Haylina". Like he stated in those tweets he is supporting her family and helping out with this investigation.

I do think Alec is to blame. I believe that Hannah or who ever else that deals with the props are to be blamed. Also cause Alec didn't know that the gun was loaded. Maybe since him and his team are going to produce this movie they might get blamed little bit. But I don't think that is right. With everything that has and is still happening I think they should hold off filming the rest, producing, and releasing this movie for quite a while till they find of what happened. This was not Alec's fault. He didn't know. I feel so sorry for Haylina's family, and for everyone who worked on this movie.

There has been no new updates that I have seen since Friday. Until now. Watch video below.

Pretty Smart TV Series Review

 Hey my lovely Chameleons. In today's blog I am going to be talking about a new Netflix show, Pretty Smart. Pretty Smart came out on October 8, 2021. Before I go on, I want to say Happy Thanksgiving Chameleons. That is why you are reading 5 blogs this weekend.

On October 8, Netflix came out with a new show called, Pretty Smart. If none of you Chameleons heard of this show, it's about; A self-proclaimed intellectual, Chelsea is forced to move in with her carefree sister, Claire and her sister's 3 roommates, lovably eccentric friends: Grant, Jayden, & Solana. 

The Cast:

Emily Osment as Chelsea

Gregg Sulkin as Grant

Olivia Macklin as Claire

Michael Hsu Rosen as Jayden

Cinthya Carmona as Solana

On March 5, 2021 I was on Instagram and saw that Emily Osment post up a new photo about staring in a new comedy with Gregg Sulkin.I thought this was cool, but didn't think too much of it. Then on September 13, 2021 I saw that Emily posted the first trailer for Pretty Smart up on her Instagram. I watched the trailer, but didn't really get the concept of the show. I decided that I wanted to check out the show on on Netflix on October 8, 2021. The day before I thought it was Friday and that it was weird that a new Netflix show was starting on Saturday. Dodge got me up at 5am, that is why. I am not use to it. Messes my days up.When it was actually October 8, 2021 I turned Netflix on sometime after dinner and watched the show. Yes I watched the show cause of Emily Osment, but I didn't like the show. To me it felts like a mess, and I didn't really know what was going on. The show was not for me.

Under Wraps (2021) Movie Review

 Hey my lovely Chameleons. In today's blog I am going to talk about a new movie that came out on October 1, 2021. This called, Under Wraps (2021). The reason why I said 2021 is cause this the first DCOM remake. The original was in 1997 and was the first Disney Channel Original Movie.

On October 1, 2021 Disney Channel got a new movie, Under Wraps (2021) and this movie is the very first remake of a DCOM. The first Under Wraps came out in 1997. If you haven't seen the original or the remake here's what it's about; Friends Marshall, Gilbert, and Amy accidentally revive and release a mummy from it's sarcophagus in the days leading up to Halloween. At first terrified, they quickly learn that the mummy who they affectionately name Harold is actually very sweet and in dire need of assistance.

The Cast

Malachi Barton as Marshall

Jordana Largy as Daine

Phil Wright as Harold

Sophia Hammons as Amy

Christian J Simons as Gilbert

Melanie Brook as Buzzy

Brent Stait as Mr. Kubot

In August I started following this Ava Kolker rampage on Instagram, just cause I love that she has new news on Disney Channel. I viewed her instaStory and saw that they were making a remake of Under Wraps. I did not want to believe it. Then I saw her posting more and more about this movie. I decided to see if it was a remake, but with a different plot and characters. But it was the exact same. One night while I walked Dodge was was thinking maybe I should watch the original and then the remake. Then I stopped and thought after I was done watching the origin and before the remake I need to find a rock to hit myself with. A few days before October 1, 2021 I was considering do that. Minis the rock lol. On October 1 I forgot to watch the original one, the next day I turned Disney on to see what was on and 5 seconds later while watching Under Wraps (2021) I wanted to shut this shit off. After I went on Instagram in the next week and saw that the Ava fanpage posted on her InstaStory. She posted that Under Wraps (2021) was going to be on Disney+ on October 8, 2021. So I decided to post up a poll on Instagram to see if you Chameleons want a review. Now, here we are lol. On October 8, 2021 Disney+ was not working so I found the movie on my laptop. 13 minutes in I wanted to watch the original. I got 45 minutes into that before I went to bed. On October 9, 2021 I ended up watching Under Wraps (2021) and started comparing the 2. the later threw out the day I went out and after dinner I restarted the movie again. As much as I DO NOT like remakes, I have to admit that this movie has some funny bits. I love the Mummy, Harold. Harold is funny and loves hot sauce. I think Harold loves hot sauce more than I do. But I still don't like remakes with a passion, but I sometimes will keep an open mind ro watch them. Here is a fun fact that I am going to leave with; Under Wraps (2021) is the lowest rated Disney Channel Original Movie in history, only receiving 0.41 viewers on premiere night. Goes to show that yo can not remake a classic DCOM.

Dear Evan Hansen Movie Review

 Hey my lovely Chameleons. In today's blog I am going to tell you about Dear Evan Hansen, movie. The movie came out on September 24, 2021. Dear Evan Hansen was suppose to be on VOD, but never came on. I really wanted to watch this movie, so I took the bus up to the movies on October 7, 2021 for the first time since this pandemic.

On September 24, 2021 we got a new movie, Dear Evan Hansen. If you do not know what this movie or Broadway show is about. I tell you Chameleons about it: It's a film adaptation of the Tony & Grammy Award-winning musical about Evan Hansen, a high school senior with Social Anxiety disorder and his journey of self-discovery and acceptance following the suicide of a fellow classmate.

The Cast:

Ben Platt as Evan Hansen

Amy Adams as Cyntha Murphy

Julianne Moore as Heidi Hansen

Kaitlyn Dever as Zoey Murphy

Amandla Steinberg as Alaha Beck

Nik Dodani as Jared Kalwani 

Danny Pino as Larry Mora

Colton Ryan as Connor Murphy

Everyday since September 24, 2021 I was looking on my VOD to see if this movie was on. On October 7, 2021 I got fed up, decided to look one more, and went up to the movies to go watch this movie. Since I heard about this movie I for some reason wanted to watch this movie. After watching Dear Evan Hansen I realized why I wanted to watch this movie so bad. I am against bullying and suicide. After the student in Evan's grade committee suicide the whole school comes together and makes a movement project for the fellow student. That is what made the movie great. Yes, I am not a fan of musicals, but I liked some of the messages in the songs.

Maid TV Series Review

 Hey my lovely Chameleons. In today's blog I am going to be reviewing a new TV Series on Netflix, called Maid. This new TV Series came out on October 1, 2021. Before I get started I want to say is after my RaeLynn Music Review I have been slacking on my blogs, just cause the movies that were suppose to be on VOD (Video On Demond) was not and I couldn't do the Movie Reviews I wanted too. I was even planing on doing this TV Series Review, but I just kept putting this off or a while. Hopefully the blogs will go back on schedule.

On October 1, 2021 Netflix got a new show called, Maid. This show is based on Stephanie Land's Memoir, Maid: Hard Work, Low Pay, and a Mother's Will To Survive. The show was created by Molly Smith Metzler. If you have not checked the show or the book out, it's about; Single mother, Alex turns to house cleaning to make ends meet as she escapes an abusive relationship and overcomes homelessness to create a better life for her daughter, Maddy.

The Cast

Margaret Qualley as Alex

Nick Robinson as Sean

Anika Noni Roese as Regina

Tracy Vilar as Yolonda 

Billy Burke as Hank

Andie MacDowell as Paula

Rylea Nevaeh Whittet as Maddy

Last year I was on IMDB seeing if Nick Robinson was playing in anything new after Shadow In The Clouds and Silk Road. He was. Maid. I clicked on it to see what this show was about and I got nothing. A year later I see on Instagram, on Nick Robinson's InstaStory that Maid was coming to Netflix on October 1, 2021. On October 1, 2021 I turned the show and watched till episode 4 and went to bed at 1:30am. during episode 2 or 3 I paused the show and cried while hugging Dodge. The show teaches me how much I love and appreciate Dodge. I think you Chameleons are think I am going to say I love this show cause of Nick Robinson, you are right. But this show makes me appreciate what I have. To me 2021 is a dream. Maid is one of my favourite shows that came out of Netflix this year.
