Wow, just wow! Star Wars: The Force Awakens did not disappoint, it was fabulous. I won’t spoil the story for anyone but this was a terrific episode to take the franchise into the future. With younger heroes carrying on a time honored movie tradition we see good things ahead. JJ Abrams could have really screwed things up but he didn’t disappoint. I wouldn’t mind seeing this again in the theatres. You should see this in a theatre on the biggest screen you have access to. It is new but is familiar at the same time. Oh, by the way, BB8 is adorable.

Spammers and their blogs suck and make the whole thing difficult for those of us who are in this thing for the right reasons. They can go away and do something else like paint dry. Stop spam now!

It’s not Christmas without Love Actually. We saw this movie for the first time last year. Richard Curtis wrote a great story featuring an amazing cast. There is a lot of great British talent plus Laura Linney who is honorary because she introduces America to Downton Abbey on PBS each Sunday.
