Feel the Thunder!

Yesterday, with a few hours free before going back to doing school stuff, I decided to check out Netflix for a film to watch.

Honestly, my aim was to look for that old film "13 going on 30." Excerpts of it have been popping on youtube and it made me want to see it again.

Alas, it wasn't on Netflix.

But there was a new film which looked like it was a force to reckon with. And it wasn't just a force, it was...

A superhero slapstick comedy with an Oscar winner and an Oscar nominee? Yes, please!

And needless to say, this film didn't disappoint.

It was a Thunder Force to reckon with.

Oh, Octavia.

I have much admiration for supporting stars in Hollywood. They put in as much work as the big stars, but they do it for less pay. But when you see them act in the film or TV series, you can see how much they put in into the scene, even if they're just relegated as a support or just put in the background.

Aside from Regina King, one of my favorite supporting actresses is Octavia Spencer. She's often typecast as a comic relief, and one of my favorite Octavia performances was in Ugly Betty. She played the woman obsessed with Betty's Father, Nacho.

And just as you're thinking that she'll just be another high-impact but not noticed star, Octavia Spencer just won a Golden Globes tonight!



Go Octavia! I'm looking forward to seeing more of your work soon!
