  • ☹️ I was OK with the move from April 2020 to November 2020. And I was OK with the move from November 2020 to April 2021. But this one is tough. I have to admit.

  • I guess we know longer have to worry about Ben Affleck showing up at the premiere--if there even is one.

  • Another delay makes sense. Until November, though? Really? That is hard to swallow.

  • I am thinking two scenarios: 1. Push back to late summer (August, perhaps) 2. Streaming

  • I had not seen this film until recently, yet another 70s film I have come to know and love during COVID. This is definitely Eastwood's Bond movie. The climbing scenes are incredible, and it's impressive that Eastwood did most of the climbing work hi…

  • Well, well, well...as soon as I saw him in Bridgerton, I thought: Bond. I know there are those who don't see a person of color being James Bond, but I am not one of them. From Grazia: "And next? Surely the Regé-Jean Page For James Bond campaign s…
