Ditto. The only cheese-fest I really struggled with was the character Hangman...cheese on top of cheese
Good luck to You , Leo Grande.
Emma Thomson, brilliant for us of a more mature age.

Just watched the new Dr Strange film and this is where the MCU hits the same problem that the comics have had for years. It all becomes so reliant on you knowing past plots, lore and backstory that it starts to become impenetrable to new watchers. I thought it was ok but hell you need to know what happened in all of the main movies, the TV shows and have an even wider knowledge to understand the Illuminati fully.
We also watched Dr Strange in the Multiverse or whatever it's called. It was decent but I do think this whole multiverse avenue they've gone down is just an excuse to change things in silly ways, like (without spoilers) making female versions or different race versions of certain characters. Some of it even seemed like a rip off of Rick & Morty if we're being honest. Watchable nonsense though I suppose.
As @GB72 since, it was lucky we'd watched WandaVision and everything otherwise half of it wouldn't have made a blind bit of sense.

Lazarus Project finished. Better than I thought and last episode was decent.
Started new series of Star Trek on Paramount+. Different direction to Discovery, more back to the NextGen type where every episode is distinct. It's fair so far.

Blood and Bone. 2009 revenge action flick with Michael Jai White. A good example of the genre and well worth watching
Watched the first 3 episodes of this and I just don't get it 🤔🙄😳😵
Elvis. Austin Butler & Tom Hanks were brilliant, film is very good if a hair long, albeit it didn't drag too much. Really interesting seeing who he met around Memphis & who influenced him, especially as we'd been to some of the places concerned. If only he'd listened to B. B. King, maybe we'd have had him for longer...

Really enjoyed King Richard. Smith was very good in it. Slightly glossy version of Richard Williams though from what I’ve read previously.
THE HELP 2011, worth a watch .
