the thing we can all relate to about The Queen's Gambit is that how engrossed we became with the story despite our lack of interest or understanding with chess...it being the center of the series and yet ignorable for those who wanted it to be and still being able to connect to Beth's passion for it.
Omg yes, The Queen's Gambit is, along Tenet, my favorite things to watch this year. The show was just unbelievably amazing, one of the best I've ever seen! Anya Taylor Joy is crazy talented 🙌🏻
Hi monika ! I am a French, I am using your videos for learn English I love your videos and i am also a ghibli movies fan ! 🤗 Your french accent is so perfect ! 😉
There’s a live action ERASED on Netflix which is pretty great. The child actors are great and their segments were truly heart tearing at some points. The ending was kinda muddled but totally worth a shot.
Always enjoy a little bit of Monika! Thanks for this! Recently i watched The Queen's Gambit, A movie called Run and an anime movie Penguin Highway, All great 👍
i absolutetly love the queens gambit too, it makes me feel classy, and ya know, i love the fashion, the scenries and all included in the show, im just so in loveeeee
Always happy to see more content from you😊 haven’t been having a great few weeks so seeing more videos from the always positive you puts a smile to my face. You’re the best!!
Recently watched Sorry to Bother You and The Devil All the Time! Had no idea what to expect going in and the stories of both movies took me by surprise lol
i recently watched La Belle Époque and i totally recommend it. really made my night a lot better. set design, actings, story, soundtracks everything was soooo beautiful. i just found some scenes unnecessary but other than it's really really great and a joy to watch.
The eczema on my hands has been bad lately too! I think it’s due to washing my hands more than usual during Corona virus... I hope yours gets better soon!
hope you get better soon too! i bought some gloves both for washing the dishes and for handling food while i cook, that way i don't have to wet my hands too much while i'm at home and that has helped. i've also been moisturizing sooo much especially every time i wash my hands!
TV shows I've been watching: Josh Gate's Tonight, The Mandalorian, Justice League (the DCAU), One Punch Man, & Mo No No Ke. Movies: Batman vs. The TMNT, The Muppet Christmas Carol, Castle In The Sky, all 3 Bill and Ted movies.
hola monika!! si te ha gustado shoplifters deberias ver our little sister del mismo director, es una de mis pelis favoritas y es super heartwarming y wholesone, creo que te gustaría!! 😊
ohhh i've been watching hannibal as tv show it's SOOOO good i can't- i mean really i'm in season 2 and already became one of my fav tv shows. alsoooo i started avatar,m watching it usually during breakfasts.
These picks are definitely going on my watchlist 💘 Your apartment looks lovely! Can u do an apartment tour when you’re done from decorating? ( your previous apartment was beautifully furnished! )
Omg your sweater in the beginning is so cute! Minari is having more virtual screenings, but the one at Film at Lincoln Center sold out :( But recently I've watched the movies Martin Eden, Sound of Metal, and Lovers Rock
Omg yess I’ve watched erased too in the past but didn’t remember it’s sooooo good and I agree with what you said about it doesn’t really feel like a regular anime soo dark but it’s extremely good.
The Vintage coffee storage 😋 I tried watching queens gambit but that first episode put me off, Maybe I should Give it another shot. Favourite movie I watched recently was "The Void" It was like every 80s horror movie all rolled into one 😊
I want to see an apartment tour! That place looks awesome! By the way, I just started film school at Full Sail University! You were a big influence Monika! Thanks!!
i recently watched looking for alaska and i did really like it! but it was a bit slow in the beginning (not gonna lie). however, it gets better and better each episode and i wanted to watch more after the show ended!
Hi! First I'd like to take a moment to appreciate how calm, chill and comforting your videos are!! They're always a joy to watch!! 🌟 I hope your eczema gets better :(( Sending good vibes your way! 🌟 Aaand for a tv show rec, pleeeease watch Anne with an E. It's such a wholesome heartwarming (but also sad at times) period drama set in the late 1800s that will surely lift your spirits up!!
I watched both The Queen's Gambit and Erased (anime) in 2 days. And let me tell you it was perfect. I *loved* them. I highly recommend both of them. Oh, and welcome back Monika! The video was awesome! The Queen's Gambit is my favourite tv show now, after Over the Garden Wall. I felt like I was reading a book. And I also watched A Silent Voice and Whisper of the Heart. And I am watching Avatar: The Last Airbender and it is great. Oh, and, Monika, I am still waiting for that Spirited Away commentary. It is my favourite movie after The Lord of the Rings trilogy. And then comes V for Vendetta and Christopher Nolan movies with Your Name. And so since you wanted tv show recommendation: I am watching Hilda right now, it's an animated tv show and it's like a mixture of Gravity Falls and Over the Garden Wall. I love it, you can find it on Netflix. I highly recommend you watch Person of Interest. It's a high quality tv show with an original concept. I recommend Sherlock, but you have probably already seen it. And as anime, I'd recommend Charlotte. and Noragami. They are both beautiful and Noragami's opening is on another level. And as sitcom, I recommend The Good Place. I am watching it right now and it's my fav sitcom. And I know this is not about books but I _finally_ started reading 1984, and I am *loving* it!
Recently revisited Die Hard, for the first time in almost 20 years. I never got the appeal before, it just didn't click for me .... but now at last I truly love the film and like many other people I'm going to make it a Xmas tradition. I've also fallen back onto comfort food in the form of Robin Williams's "Live on Broadway" special. It still makes me laugh.
If you haven't seen Patrick Melrose,you should watch it. It has some similarities to Queen's Gambit,but it's very unique in its own way.Also What we do in the shadows and Derry Girls are very funny in my opinion😊.
Have you watched The Great on Hulu? It's kind of a cross between Queens Gambit and The Crown. Loosely historical with some quirk and dark comedy. Amazing cinematography and acting. I think you would like it.
I know three languages ..can read and write them and speak lol( no big deal coz I'm Indian and it's crazy regional here)🤓. Speaking of movies...Monika please pls pls watch this Chinese film "Better Days" . I recently watched it and it broke me ..absolutely devastatingly real and stark ..it made me cry so much. It's about 17/18 yr olds going through that crucial last year of high school just before college and the insane exam pressure and stress but most of all about BULLYING! I could relate to the film so much...it was so beautiful in ever way...it also happens to be a love story..honestly I want more people to know about it! Honestly it's just pure soul stirring heart wrenching portrayal of the human condition🤧🧡Just go watch it coz I am so short of the proper ways to describe it...i suck at articulating ...especially when I love something so much😅😁and also another chinese (cantonese) film that I wanna reccommend u is "Chungking Express"!! U have to watch this little delight of a film especially if you're a film lover. All I can say is that it's a classic cult arthouse indie film! It's like the poster image of that genre...just go watch it! The director Wong Kar Wai is a very reverred director who really made Hong Kong a character in his films😍😍. Also another one of his materpiece ...Fallen Angels..u wont regret watching these😍😍😍. I'm so in love with East Asian stuff right now🤩🤩
I started watching anime recently! Any recommendations? I love studio ghibli movies, and haikyuu is good too (the gameplay gets kind of boring though lol). KNY (Demon Slayer) is good as well if you haven't seen it. ATLA isn't an anime technically, but I 100% recommend you watch it. It's one of the best cartoons ever.
Kaleido Star. its low budget and kids like but I promise it is so beautiful and motivating!! Also Poco's Udon World is highly underrated and you'll surely cry. it is sooo adorable. the intro song is about mental health omg
i get little bubbles too :( it's so annoying. it was so bad recently but i'm starting to feel better cause i got gloves and have been moisturizing endlessly!
@@cinemoni I found out recently it’s called dyshidrotic eczema on a subreddit. I didn’t really know it was a specific thing. Heat changes set it off for me!
I want to know your thoughts on Slumdog Millionaire! I also think it would be so cool if you did a full Latin American movies list. I double majored in Literature and Spanish in undergrad, and I got to watch a lot of Spanish language (usually Latin American) movies. I'd love some recommendations. My favs are La Teta Asustada (Peru), Nueve Reinas (Argentina), Memorias del Subdesarrollo (Cuba, I know you'd appreciate this with your film knowledge), XXY (Uruguay, nothing like it in any language), Machuca(Chile), Pieles (Spain), La Historia Oficial (Argentina), Amores Perros (creo que Mexico?), El Traductor (Cuba), Fresa y Chocolate (Cuba), Maria Llena de Gracia (Columbia?). If you have a library card or are still affiliated with school, you can get Kanopy for free, which is a streaming service that focuses on indie movies and more educational/documentary/true events. You can watch some of what I mentioned there Also I LOVE ERASED idek I like fell in love with Satoru's voice actor... I have been watching The Office, Perfect Blue & Your Name (thank you for that), Kiki's Delivery Service, and rewatching Naoki Urasawa's Monster. It is a masterpiece, one of the best and most underrated anime of all time. It's psychological, crime, thriller, drama, philosophical (MAJORLY philosophical), and slice of life. Slow moving but I think you would appreciate it.
the thing we can all relate to about The Queen's Gambit is that how engrossed we became with the story despite our lack of interest or understanding with chess...it being the center of the series and yet ignorable for those who wanted it to be and still being able to connect to Beth's passion for it.
yes! i do think it was so interesting to learn more about chess and it made me want to play (something i've never even thought about before lol)
I think that series was based on Judit polgar
just like haikyuu lol
@@ariesangel4815 Word's first female chess player & first ever female chess Grandmaster who Defeated nearly all Legendary chess GMs 😌
@@ariesangel4815 just search Judit polgar on internet....
honestly i would die for beth,,, the queen's gambit made me question whether i'm actually gay or not
You look like a live action version of a Miyazaki movie character, in a certain way; it's amazing to notice 🤗😊.
Kinda notices that too 😂
Yaaaa I ve had that in mind for so long hahahahhaha
Yessss so true!!
Me too! She looks like an anime girl. Rare to see such beautiful, dark hair and big eyes + big lips lol
omg the candies from Grave of the fireflies in the background
i saw queen’s gambit in the thumbnail and i LEAPED here you don’t even know
Your channel always makes me feel so happy and calm! Especially when you speak spanish ✨
maybe i'll make a video in spanish soon 💕
Omg yes, The Queen's Gambit is, along Tenet, my favorite things to watch this year. The show was just unbelievably amazing, one of the best I've ever seen! Anya Taylor Joy is crazy talented 🙌🏻

The queens gambit sounds really similar to code gease. Code gease is an amazing series btw!
There’s a live action ERASED on Netflix which is pretty great. The child actors are great and their segments were truly heart tearing at some points. The ending was kinda muddled but totally worth a shot.

It is my most favourite show, sad that it is cancelled.
@@nabihakhan9455 same, I'll never get over it
@@nabihakhan9455 Anne's perspective on things literally changed my life
YESSSSS my notebook is filled with her quotes! and I graduated this year my senior quote was "Caring desply will always be the right thing!"

The vibes of the intro are ~immaculate~
Love the candy box from grave of the fireflies!

Omg u watched Erased. I love that anime. Highly recommended.

Shameless is a great tv show that’s on Netflix, you should really give it a go!
I completely agree, season 4 of the crown was wayyyyyy better than season 3, there was just a lot more happening.
Shoplifters is amazing 💙💙💙
Recommend the Show: This is us, and Outlander
So glad you uploaded 🤗❤️
I just added like 10 new things to my watch list...
For Erased, Netflix get a live-action with japanese actors. It´s pretty good.
always love your videos❤️
You should watch The Dragon Prince. It’s on Netflix and it is amazing. Me lo agradeces después ;)
I watched both The Queen's Gambit and Erased (anime) in 2 days. And let me tell you it was perfect. I *loved* them. I highly recommend both of them.
Oh, and welcome back Monika! The video was awesome!
The Queen's Gambit is my favourite tv show now, after Over the Garden Wall. I felt like I was reading a book.
And I also watched A Silent Voice and Whisper of the Heart. And I am watching Avatar: The Last Airbender and it is great.
Oh, and, Monika, I am still waiting for that Spirited Away commentary. It is my favourite movie after The Lord of the Rings trilogy. And then comes V for Vendetta and Christopher Nolan movies with Your Name.
And so since you wanted tv show recommendation:
I am watching Hilda right now, it's an animated tv show and it's like a mixture of Gravity Falls and Over the Garden Wall. I love it, you can find it on Netflix.
I highly recommend you watch Person of Interest. It's a high quality tv show with an original concept.
I recommend Sherlock, but you have probably already seen it.
And as anime, I'd recommend Charlotte. and Noragami. They are both beautiful and Noragami's opening is on another level.
And as sitcom, I recommend The Good Place. I am watching it right now and it's my fav sitcom.
And I know this is not about books but I _finally_ started reading 1984, and I am *loving* it!
are you going to do the perfect movie for each blackpink member like you did for bts? love your recommendations
I recently watched Fruits Basket. And I am in love with it. Please watch it if you haven't watched it already 😊
i love fruits basket!!
Recently revisited Die Hard, for the first time in almost 20 years. I never got the appeal before, it just didn't click for me .... but now at last I truly love the film and like many other people I'm going to make it a Xmas tradition.
I've also fallen back onto comfort food in the form of Robin Williams's "Live on Broadway" special. It still makes me laugh.
When I say I love your channel
I reaaaaaaaaally mean it
I remember that you liked the office? Well maybe parks and rec is almost better (it came out ages ago but still really good!)
I've been meaning to watch the Queen's Gambit so excited to watch!!
If you haven't seen Patrick Melrose,you should watch it. It has some similarities to Queen's Gambit,but it's very unique in its own way.Also What we do in the shadows and Derry Girls are very funny in my opinion😊.
cries cuz I thought the new movie of violet evergarden was finally out on Netflix
The queen's gambit is my favorite show :)
It’s one of my faves from this year
WHERE DID YOU GET THE GRAVE OF THE FIREFLIES CAN ?! was it in Japan :( I wanna go so bad
i dont think i have ever heard someone say chocolat in such a cute way omg haha
Finally a video !!!!😭🥳
Monika es la tipa mas vacana de TH-cam, just FYI
Hey! Just wanted to ask, what cameras are you using? (love your anime recommendations)
Have you watched The Great on Hulu? It's kind of a cross between Queens Gambit and The Crown. Loosely historical with some quirk and dark comedy. Amazing cinematography and acting. I think you would like it.
I recommend you to watch a beautiful music orientated anime called "your lie in April". It's available on Netflix and have only 22 episodes + 1 OVA
I LOVE YOUR LIE IN APRIL it made me cry so much
@@cinemoni thank you very much for your reply, it's really unexpected from a big channel like this. You are really sweet and grounded 😇😇.
I recommend the inbetweeners!!! It’s a super hilarious show and it’s on Netflix :)))
I highly recommend Donald Glover's show Atlanta, frankly one of the best things I've ever seen from TV.
hey may i ask where to watch shoplifters (2018) movie? i tried to search if it was available on netflix but it wasn't there.
The promised neverland! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!!!!!!!!!!
