Today, I put Dancing Lady in my DVD player. An attempt by MGM to do a Warner Bros./Busby Berkeley style musical. Great cast (Joan Crawford, Clark Gable, Fred Astaire and the Three Stooges, among others), but the dance numbers were not that good. The…

Bild-Lilli, or the true origins of Barbie :

On the other hand, Guardians of the Galaxy 3 was really, really good. In fact, it's my second favourite Marvel movie, after Captain America : The Winter Soldier.

Well, Barry was nominated, and even won, but not for Bond, alas.

My top-pick would be the Bull-run in Pamplona, Spain. Well, it was used in a role-playing adventure module for the James Bond 007 Role-Playing Game in the '80s. More precisely, that one : During my Role-Playing and Game Mastering days,…

Last movie of my vacations : The New Mutants. A very efficient horror movie masquerading as a super-hero movie. And I know I've said it before, but Anya Taylor Joy steals the show.

Last night, I watched Captain America : First Avenger. Funny, that one was one of the few Marvel movies I didn't see in the theater when it came out. Well, it's a very fun movie, and because of it, the ending scene of Avengers : Endgame makes so muc…

The main problem with The Marvels, IMHO, is that you may have to have seen two series on Disney + in order to fully understand it. That's fine if you have Disney +, but I don't. I hope everyone involved will be able to bypass that little hiccup, but…

Funny, but I've see that title before :

Yesterday, I watched Top Hat. Fred Astaire, Ginger Rogers, and a great supporting cast, what more could anyone ask for ?

And here's the new Sonic Screwdriver that the 14th Doctor will use in this year's specials :

I shouldn't have to do that, but may I recommend the diary Roger Moore wrote about the filming of this movie ? Bought it in the seventies (well, the french edition - yes, it exists), and it's still on my James Bond shelf.

In the middle of visits to the family, and watching the last three discs of the second season of It Takes a Thief, I managed to see two of the movies I brought with me for my vacations in Brest. First, Everything Everywhere All at Once : For once…

While perusing books at the local FNAC store (in Brest), I opened the eleventh installment of the Lady Georgiana (Her Royal Spyness) series by Rhys Bowen, and discovered that the original title was : On Her Majesty's Frightfully Secret Service …

The next season of the "Classic" era to be put on Blu-Ray will be Series 20, with stories like "Snakedance", "Terminus", and "The Five Doctors" : https://merchandise.thedoctorwhosite.co.uk/doctor-who-the-collection-season-20-limited-editi…

It was a bit late to put on my Blu-Ray player this sunday evening, so I decided to watch Goldeneye instead of a DVD. As usual, I enjoyed it. Very much.

I took advantage of my vacations to put Tales of Terror in the Blu-Ray player yesterday. This time, three tales of Edgar Alan Poe reunited in a single movie (well, four if you count The Cask of Amontillado, mixed with The Black Cat). The first was s…

Good news : Jennifer Garner returns as Elektra in Deadpool 3. https://www.cbr.com/jennifer-garner-deadpool-3-elektra-return/ I've always thought that she was the best thing in Daredevil. Good to see her back in the part.

I've received this week the bill for the costs of my appartment (heating, gardening, cleaning, and so on. And I (and all the tenants in the neighbourhood) found it quite hishg. I have to pay some 535 € in august, in addition to my rent (458 €). Afte…

In France, in a week, Indiana Jones et le Cadran de la Destinée has already attracted 1 089 875 people. Given how packed the theater was, no doubt it will attract more. https://www.jpbox-office.com/fichfilm.php?id=21346&view=2
