I watched The Dive earlier today only to find out it’s a remake of this Swedish film. Normally I’d say, “Silly Americans always remaking movies…” but The Dive was a German film (in English)… so I guess we can blame … Continue reading
I’m hardly current on the state of modern Peanuts (or “Snoopy Presents”) specials but I decided to give this Apple TV+ special a shot. It’s forty-five minutes devoted to Marcie who I’m going to assume has never gotten a star … Continue reading
