  • My plans: Today, I wished Kim Sherwood a happy birthday. Last year she responded! I teased her a bit by saying she missed having her birthday on James Bond Day by just one day. Probably play GE and TWINE on the N64 and EON on Xbox. My three fa…

  • Megalopolis (2024). Unique, that's all I can say. To describe this is to quote Q in Skyfall: It's like solving a Rubik's cube that's fighting back. It's going to take a couple of days to think this one over. It's no Godfather 1 & 2, that's for s…

  • https://www.cbr.com/dynamic-duo-movie-announced/ Really excited about this actually! Similar to James Bond, a lot of spinoffs for Batman's supporting cast seem to be on their way! However, compared to IFP, we know that WB and DC are definitely ke…

  • Happy 100th birthday to one my country’s most honest presidents: Jimmy Carter! Thank you for your service, in more ways than one. He watched more movies as President than anyone else. https://www.cnn.com/2024/10/01/politics/jimmy-carter-100-celeb…
