"It probably would be one of the original Robin Hoods, with Errol Flynn, from 1938. Errol Flynn was my hero, and then when I was fortunate enough to get a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, I asked to be put next to his, which they did. If you’re going to go back to what was my first favorite movie, that was it, and still would be in my top five, without question."

This series...I really could imagine it as some Sci-fi blockbuster with some hot hunky Hollywood actor as Trey and some cute blonde as Kricket. It could be so epic!

In case you haven't figured I'm in love with this series. It's so good. Non stop action/romance/commeraderie. I pretty much love all the good guys. Kyon, I kinda wanna stab in the eye or something but everyone else ❤

Movie Favorite

"You know, a movie that I always come back to, which is a documentary — I hope that’s okay — is American Movie, which I think is one of the funniest and saddest movies I’ve ever seen. So quotable. And it really says a lot about hope, optimism, naivete, the movie business. Even though they’re hundreds of miles away from LA and have no real access to Hollywood… I just love that movie so much."

Mulholland Drive (2001)
2001 | Documentary, Drama, Mystery

"Mulholland Dr. and Blue Velvet were the two films that had the most impact on me during my college years. This was the first time I realized how cinema can depict our dreams and nightmares. This film represents our deepest fears of celebrity, fame, and identity—and how ambition, greed, and jealousy can make our realities a nightmare. I see it as a cautionary tale of Hollywood, blurring the lines between reality and dreams. "

The Wizard of Oz (1939)
1939 | Fantasy, Musical

"Like Xanadu, it’s a phantasmagoria – but more menacing. A lone teenage gal and her dog hit the (yellow, brick) road and pick up a trio of men along the way. Try pitching that idea to a Hollywood studio! The only film in recent memory with a similar story was the lugubrious indie Wendy and Lucy, which I couldn’t even finish. Maybe a flying monkey or a smartly dressed munchkin might have perked things up."

2018 | Family
I didn't think this was a necessary movie to create. The original was wonderful and full of laughter, while Mary Poppins returns felt like it was trying too hard to be the original. Nevertheless I do like some of the actors they choose and appreciate the talent they shared. And I liked the ending song and scene (that felt like Mary Poppins to me!) In short: sequels in Hollywood aren't ever quite as good.

Ok
While this one was a little better than the first one, it was still just ok. Thse acting was good. The cinematography was better than before and the storyline was similar, though played out a little better. The ending was a little weak(though typical of Hollywood). Leaving things open for a sequel, of course. If you enjoyed the first one you'll enjoy this one. It's entertaining enough. Worth a watch.
