HAPPY BIRTHDAY @StephenKing. You are lucky enough to share birthdays with my mom! Hope you enjoyed your day AND you liked my Dollar Baby - That Feeling!
@pinata_guy Not digging the voice. It reflects what he did in the past, but that was only one aspect of his emoting. I hope he doesn’t spend the whole movie talking like he’s squeezing his voice box.
3 non-writer facts:
I’ve had two surgeries on my left knee.
I was lead singer and rhythm guitar player in a band in high school and college.
I struggle with my weight. I overindulge a little too often. 🤷♂️ (but I’m down 50+ lbs and kept it off for more than a year! 🙌)
I think the problem is multifaceted and complex - however, 1) putting films on streaming while they are still in theaters keeps people from GOING TO THE THEATERS and 2) huge budgets need to be reigned in so movies can still have a chance to get out of the red.
3) movies are dying from the total ONSLAUGHT of reviews online. People who were going to see a film on a Sunday decide not to because they get two “reviews” in their feed that tell them it’s fine but not GREAT. The bar can’t keep raising. There has to be a ceiling.
Stephen King graciously offered to sign 50 copies of this issue when it is published later this summer. Sunday night, I will pick one random winner to receive a signed copy. Just have to Follow and RT to be eligible. Good luck!
