| | WannaBe: Something I did not know/realize before, I probably seen "The Great Escape" 3 times, decades apart of course. Finally paid attention to the opening credit (unlike today, where the credit roll are at the end of the movie) James Clavell is one of the script writer!! He is (more) famous for Sho-Gun, Nobel House and many other novels. The movie is free on YouTube (with ads), but if you use ad-blocker (I use it on my Chrome), you don't see any ads. If you need to go bathroom, just pause the movie. =)) |

| | WannaBe: Oh, goodness gracious, watching "No Time to Die" the latest Bond movie... But this time at home on laptop instead on big screen because of Covid and now Omicron. Wonderful intro, that motorcycle scene is absolutely amazing (What else does one expect from Bond movie??) Best line so far, and there have been so, so, so, so, many is when James Bond (retired, no longer have the moniker 007) says "The desk is the same size. That is just about as British insult/humour as one can be (my opinion). I had to pause the video and really laughed out loud for a solid minute. Think I will watch that scene again. Ralph F. does do a good/great job as 'M'. |

| | WannaBe: Right after that scene, instead of throwing the usual hat onto the rack, well, he threw something else into the something else... Quite cheeky, as our distant cousin across the 'pond' would say... (I am trying to not ruin the movie for others) |

| | WannaBe: Personal log/opinion, maybe it's just me, but Star Trek Discovery just keep getting better and better, with the ethical side of the coin (much like the original) and the over-all script and story (line). Can't wait for Season Two of Star Trek Picard. Also Matrix 4. |

| | WannaBe: Oh yeah, just noticed also, the computer voice now have a name and it's got a hint of British accent, maybe Welsh, or Irish, could be Aussie, or New Zealand or South African or Nigerian or Kenya or Egyptian or Jamaican or any of the previous British holdings. It's definitely not American, Boston, New York, Alabama, North Carolina, California, Dakotas, Minnesota, or Texan. Definitely not Texan... Definitely, Definitely not Texan (to quote Rain Man) |

| | WannaBe: Star Trek Discovery (STD) season 4 episode 7 is something else (in a good way). Wow, a whole combination of old scripts presented in a modern day world. AI (Zora?) is not aware of herself and try to protect the crew. The idea of need of many outweights the need of the few. This episode have literally no action scenes what so ever, no fighting (hand to hand) or space ships firing at each other, but the tension and the messages were delivered pretty loud and clear. A++ |
