Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2103 KP) rated Cherry Cheesecake Murder (Hannah Swensen, #8) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
While Hannah tries to deal with the double marriage proposals from Mike and Norman, a Hollywood production company comes to town. However, the director is a jerk, and he is murdered by a rigged prop gun. This is another fun book, although it was slow getting started.
You've got to try the title recipe. It's wonderful!

Dean (6925 KP) rated Black Panther (2018) in Movies
Feb 22, 2018
Landmark film
A landmark film for Hollywood that has a great significance for the industry.
To the film and I did worry it might not quite live up to the hype. Thankfully I can say it is a very good film for many reasons. It has some great action scenes, Sfx, for the suit especially. Also featuring a strong complex villain and with some funny moments. One of the better stand alone character films from the MCU.

Dean (6925 KP) rated The Twilight Zone in TV
Jun 7, 2020
Mixed bag of episodes
I was quite happy to see a new series of the Twilight Zone suddenly appear. With Jordan Peele in charge and appearing as the Narrator as well. Overall the episodes are quite good with some top Hollywood actors starting in each episode. Some of the stories are good. A couple of them were a bit weak. Overall a good venture into the Twilight Zone.

Blazing Minds (92 KP) rated Waiting for the Barbarians (2020) in Movies
Nov 1, 2021 (Updated Nov 3, 2021)
In an age of action-packed Hollywood blockbusters it’s a refreshing change to have a movie that you can relax with, Waiting for the Barbarians is very much that sort of film, the opening sequence with its lovely landscape shot as a horse-drawn carriage travels across the arid land to an outpost in the middle of nowhere looks great and this does set us up for the cinematography that persists throughout the film.

Whatchareadin (174 KP) rated NYPD Red (NYPD Red, #1) in Books
May 10, 2018
Detective Zach Jordan works for NYPD Red. A distinct branch of the NYPD that is in charge of cases involving the rich and famous He's about to het a new partner and a new case all in the same day. The new partner, Detective Kylie MacDonald is an old lover The new case comes at the start of Hollywood on the Hudson, where the L.A. elite come to examine movie making in New York City. So people in the T.V./movie business will be everywhere.
The Good News: NYPD Red will be busy.
The Bad News: They have a serial killer on their hands.
The first murder is at the Regency Hotel. A movie producer takes a nose dive into his breakfast plate. Not long after arriving on the scene, do they get a call for a murder at Silvercup Studios....and the day begins.
Will they find the killer before half of Hollywood is dead in NYC?
I'm a big James Patterson fan, and this book didn't have as much Umph to it that the Cross or Women's Murder Club books do.
