I used to love the Oscars. Loved watching the nomination announcements. I loved casting my own ballot. I even enjoyed throwing a few Oscar watching parties. Then, little by little, I stopped going to the movies. Then, little by little, I had no sense of connection to the […]
It was a foggy start to the new year. Realy foggy. Low visibility. However, that was not startling. Who knows what the new year will bring? Indeed, the forecast is cloudy. How can it not be? The previous years have totally upended our New years expectations. However, as […]
The theatrical release of Wakanda Forever, the sequel to Black Panther, got me back out to the movie theatre. I had loved Black Panther. And, as such, was excited to watch Wakanda Forever. While I found the movie visually engaging and liked it, I didn’t love it. I […]
