Summer has officially started. And, I normally would not have started it off with a dinosaur movie. I believe that I watched the original Jurassic Park in the movie theaters years ago. (was it more than a decade ago?) But since then I have not been that […]
Back when George Clooney assembled his all-male assemble for Ocean’s Eleven, I watched the film but have no real memory of its plot. Sure, I know that he gathered some friends who each had a special skill needed for a heist. I believe that film was set […]
