Aubrey Plaza is now a Christmas Witch, and we're here for it
It means what we also would have missed out on some gems, such as this latest chat show appearance. Making a wondrous appearance on 'The Late Show with Stephen Colbert' last night, Aubrey Plaza showed up as the Christmas Witch.
Making an incredibly elaborate entrance into the studio (and making sure her cape draped elegantly over the sofa), Plaza turned up as a beguiling character which sounds like a perfect fit for the festive season. It's important to remember, however, that the actor shares a similarity between her 'Parks and Recreation' character April Ludgate - a love for the weird, wonderful, and dark. So, naturally, Plaza's Christmas Witch is quite spooky.
It's all an amusing and elaborate introduction to a character in her children's book, 'The Legend of the Christmas Witch', which she wrote with her creative partner Dan Murphy.
For those unfamiliar with the Christmas Witch, which is certainly not a fictional character that popped out of Plaza's head, she explains the origin story of her "misunderstood character"; she is Santa Clause's twin sister, who ended up getting "shafted" as she made friends with penguins in the South Pole.
Later in her interview with Colbert, Plaza went on to "spill the tea" on some of her former acting colleagues, including Kristen Stewart, Molly Shannon and Michael Caine, whom she stars opposite in the comedy/drama 'Best Sellers'.
From what we can tell though, Aubrey Plaza and her Christmas Witch persona spins a few questionable truths about each of them as she sips on her dandelion tea.
But his sister has a distinctly different holiday vibe.
Some praised the variety of songs and the inclusion of iconic classics, while others felt that the original songs did not live up to the same standard. Despite the mixed reviews, the album was well-received by fans of the film and reached number 26 on the Billboard charts. Overall, the Strange Magic Soundtrack is a diverse collection of songs that help to bring the film's magical world to life. Whether you're a fan of classic tunes or original compositions, this soundtrack has something for everyone..
Reviews for "Magical Mélodies: The Unexpected Soundtracks That Define Memorable Movie Moments"
1. John - 2 stars
I was really disappointed with the "Strange Magic" soundtrack. The songs just didn't resonate with me and I found them quite forgettable. The lyrics were cheesy and the overall production felt lackluster. I was hoping for a captivating and magical soundtrack to match the movie, but unfortunately, this just didn't deliver. I found myself skipping through songs after the first few seconds because they simply didn't catch my attention. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this soundtrack if you're looking for something truly enchanting.
2. Sarah - 1 star
I couldn't stand the "Strange Magic" soundtrack. It felt like a cheap knock-off of other fantasy musicals. The songs were generic and lacked any originality. I didn't feel any emotional connection to the music or the characters in the movie. It was just a forgettable experience overall. I was really disappointed because I had high hopes for this soundtrack, but it failed to deliver anything memorable or worthwhile. I wouldn't waste my time or money on this soundtrack again.
3. Mike - 2 stars
As a fan of musicals, I was excited to give the "Strange Magic" soundtrack a listen. However, I was left underwhelmed and unimpressed. The songs lacked depth and substance, and I found them to be quite repetitive. There were no standout tracks that I could genuinely enjoy or appreciate. The overall arrangement of the songs felt disjointed and didn't flow well together. I felt like the soundtrack missed an opportunity to enhance the storytelling and connect with the audience on a deeper level. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this soundtrack to anyone looking for a captivating musical experience.
4. Emily - 3 stars
While the "Strange Magic" soundtrack had a few enjoyable moments, overall, it fell short of my expectations. The songs were catchy at times, but they lacked the depth and complexity I was hoping for. The lyrics felt cliché and the melodies didn't leave a lasting impression. I found myself forgetting the songs shortly after listening to them. There were a few standout tracks that I did enjoy, but they were few and far between. Overall, the soundtrack felt average and didn't leave a lasting impact on me.
