Recalibrating the Signal…
I know it’s been really silent on the blog here for a bit. I’ve been going through some personal … issues … losses … bullshit. I don’t know what to call it.
Plus after blogging 18 years on this site, I needed to refind my focus. Recalibrate the signal, if you will.
But I will be back by the end of March 2020, so please hang in there with me. In the meantime, I’m fairly lively on my social media, so hit me up there.
See you soon!
Movie Review: Dolittle Is Fun but Fairly Forgettable .. #SpoilerFree #Dolittle
Dolittle is the most recent film incarnation based on the titular character created by author Hugh Lofting. This one stars Robert Downey Jr. and is produced by his and his wife’s production company, Team Downey.
I’ve been a fan of the Doctor Dolittle character since I was a child, and a fan of Downey’s work for decades. So I had really high hopes for this film.
Zengrrl Movie Review: Lady and the Tramp (2019) .. #LadyandtheTramp #DisneyPlus
I loved the original animated version of Disney’s Lady and the Tramp, but was a bit dubious that it needed a remake – a live action one, to boot.
Having just watched it, I’m still not sure if the original movie needed a live action remake, but it wasn’t a waste of my time, either.

Movie Review: Is Toy Story 4 Worth Seeing? #SpoilerFree #ToyStory4
I’ll admit, when I first heard they were doing Toy Story 4, I was worried they might be going to the well too many times. But I recently had the chance to preview the movie, and I think it’s a welcome sequel.
As the film opens, Woody (voice of Tom Hanks), Buzz Lightyear (voice of Tim Allen), and the rest of the toys now belong to a young girl named Bonnie. When Bonnie’s beloved new craft-project-turned-toy, Forky (voice of Tony Hale), declares himself as “trash” and not a toy, Woody takes it upon himself to show Forky why he should embrace being a toy.

Today, May 30, is designated as World MS Day, to bring awareness to the disease – one which I’ve been living with for almost a decade.
