    Happy New Year! We still have a pandemic, but, it looks like the omnicron is less dangerous (but more infectious) than the other variants. No matter what…..box office numbers are still lower and, in my opinion, the world of box office numbers to determine a movie’s success in the face of streaming is going to…

    Many years ago, the eggs belonging to Cleopatra were unearthed…..unfortunately only two of the three eggs were found. What happened to the third?

    Lots of new movies this week, most of them not doing as well as hoped while “Spider-Man” keeps kicking butt. The omicron variant is proving to be less powerful than delta, but, a lot easier to catch….even if you are fully vaccinated and boosted. Overall: It is still NOT safe to go to the theaters.…

    Twenty years ago, the movie magic began. Talk about nostalgia! Wow! Kristen, Sam, Carol, and Ashley LOVED going to Barnes & Noble to get the books and experience Harry Potter Night.

    As expected, the theater attendees went out for a blockbuster action movie! “Spider-Man” kicked major butt this weekend at the theater. But this is not neccessairily good news (except for the money hungry). Sure hope no one gets sick from omicron or delta……but, you know some people will, and a few may die: At least…
