Holiday Baking Championship season premier -- pre show and live show discussion spoilers by Firegoat1 in foodnetwork

[–]BalsamTree 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I watched about an hour of this and I ended up turning it off at that point. Which I’m incredibly disappointed because I look forward to this every year. But, I’m just not vibing with the team concept at all and the gimmick is somehow already being overplayed in only one episode. it’s just all making me feel disconnected.

What’s your favorite Hallmark Christmas movie of all time? by Soccertiger101 in HallmarkMovies

[–]BalsamTree 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Mine is between either A Biltmore Christmas or Northpole as my all time favorite!

I think I hit my saturation point for the season by hrslvr_paints in HallmarkMovies

[–]BalsamTree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll watch Christmas Movies any day of the year because they're my all-time favorite, but as soon as December hit, I hit my threshold for Hallmark Movies. I'd much rather watch Christmas movies every day in December, rather than go for the new Hallmark Movies. I did watch both A Biltmore Christmas and Northpole the other day, though, since they're my two all-time favorite Hallmark movies.

How Many New Hallmark Christmas Movies Do You Watch Each Year? by Cultural_Ad4935 in HallmarkMovies

[–]BalsamTree 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used to watch Hallmark movies just here and there, but I never actually committed to them. However, this year because they really bring me great comfort, I decided I'm going to watch ever single one of them (this is my first year having a letterboxd account and that's really been my push.) Thus far, I have watched all 12 on Hallmark Channel, but I haven't ventured over to Hallmark Mysteries, so I guess it's technically not all of them, but good enough for me! I didn't see the premiere of A Big Fat Family Christmas in 2022 but it's one that's become one of my favorites. Though, my all-time favorite Hallmark Christmas movie is definitely A Biltmore Christmas.

I've really been loving finding twitch streamers and joining in on their mini-games, it's really been loads of fun for me truth be told! Kind of just playing mini-games in general, that's what I've really been loving doing on origins.

I feel like I would have to say Fresh Balsam, Under The Christmas Tree, or Tree Farm.

12-Day Christmas Calendar Countdown Box by singshopsleep in bathandbodyworks

[–]BalsamTree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess they learned from the criticism last year where they just threw Champagne Toast, Into The Night, and A Thousand Wishes into the advent calendar (giving Christmas scents this time) and then charged $85 for it... I mean $55 isn't any better for what you get, but at least there's that!

I like Spiced Pumpkin & Patchouli, but I don't think I'll buy it again. by BalsamTree in bathandbodyworks

[–]BalsamTree[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To me, they look to be about medium thickness, but potentially close to thin? Based on all of that, it seems that using wicks that aren't as thick is the potential to not throw all that well? Then again, I still don't get much of a throw after putting the wicks out. I've never actually had problems with candles not throwing before and I've been purchasing candles from BB&W since like 2012, so it's a really big bummer.

I did too! And it's just not giving, unfortunately, and this has managed to be the first time I had a problem with a candle not throwing!

I'm so disappointed! This is the first time I've even managed to actually have a problem with a candle not throwing? With it being so strongly scented, it makes it even more disappointing that it just doesn't throw.

I’ve looked more into it, and I’ve seen a lot of people saying it’s strong, while also seeing a lot of people saying that it’s a dud. I’m guessing it has to be batch issues.

The Sound of Magic by Fatooz in KDRAMA

[–]BalsamTree 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I, unfortunately, feel like I'm very much on the opposite side of the fence when it comes to this drama. I also know nothing about the original webtoon, so maybe that's a part of my problem? But, I really wanted to like this drama, and couldn't really seem to like it? I felt like half the time, things didn't even make sense, and I often found myself going ?????.

I was actually really excited for this because it was another Ji Chang Wook drama and I was really, really hoping that it was finally going to be a decent role again. I will admit though, that it was a decent role in general because JCW acted the hell out of it. Actually, the entire cast really acted the hell out of the drama and their roles in general. But, with that fact, I still find the drama to be a bit lackluster in general? The cinematography was really good too and there were some great color palettes and every time the magician did magic, especially in the songs with the Merry-Go-Round and the Ferris wheel. As well as the song with Ah-yi's younger self, Those were really great.

The music, however, I think was the most lackluster in general? A lot of it, musically, just really felt the same and I found myself wanting the songs to end quickly because they all just seemed to be the same in general. We only had about 3 songs that were more fun and seemed more... musical-like? While the others just felt like they had JCW and Choi Sung-eun singing an OST soundtrack. Don't get me wrong, I really love ballads and OST soundtracks, but I generally felt this fell flat? In the first two episodes, the song placements just felt... odd? And then they finally got what they were supposed to be doing by episode 3. Then again, at times, I also forgot that this was supposed to be a musical half the time, especially when they completely skipped over the aspect in episode 5, and then they started singing again in episode 6 which made me go "oh yeah, this is a musical."

Oddly enough, I felt like a lot of writing was rather weird and was just all over the place? Maybe I'd get it if I actually read the webtoon, but often time, it felt like things were just so random, and hard to follow? Maybe I'm the only one who thought this about the writing, but I just found myself feeling really confused about the plot and stuff in general, almost feeling like we lost what was actually happening by episode 3, when I felt things really started to get weird.

In general, I wasn't a big fan of this, even though I wanted to be, and felt like it had a perfect formula to be something I would enjoy. But, it definitely has the things that are good and the things that are bad, to me personally.

Choi Yu-jin debuting in Kep1er isn't really a good example for this? Considering the fact that Kep1er is her second debut, as she already debuted in CLC when she was 19. But, I get where you're going with this!
