  • The next Bond may now be the lead in his high school‘s play.
  • It’s refreshing to see art rather than the overused photo collage.
  • Solo is not a bad film; Ron Howard did a Herculean job in salvaging it .
  • Not bitter in the least; amused would be a more appropriate description.
  • So bizarre…
  • It’s so bizarre how triggered some are that someone does a video presentation. It’s just another format for expressing an Idea.

  • In short, he’s heard that it’s very good, premiering in Canne is a show of confidence. It will be accompanied by a tribute to Harrison Ford. He also absolutely DOES NOT believe that there were massive reshoots and revisions. I was unfamiliar with…
  • Yes a YouTube personality but what he says is reasonable , plausible and encouraging.
  • Michael Billington was mentioned above; I have to be candid I had never heard his name mentioned as a potential Bond., but after looking him up I have to say he had a great look, very intense. Physically he would have been that generation’ Craig.

  • I think his top form was in TWINE.

  • Ed Speleers Has been impressive on Picard.
  • To Kill A Mockingbird This is my all time favorite film; it touches me on so many levels. I’ve often said that when I’m on my deathbed, this is the last film that I want to see.

  • A strong script with a craftsman director and a great editor seems like a good combination.
  • Understandably age comes up when discussing Campbell, but at this point I don’t think that’s an issue. In recent videos he looks fit , vital and sharp.

  • The score is hideous and very distracting; what a shame because it is a very good film.

  • I have thoughts on this but think it’s better to disengage. Bring on Indiana Jones; I’m hopeful for a fun ride.
