Emmy® Award-winning late-night talk show host and producer Jimmy Kimmel will return to host the 95th Oscars®.

      Howdy back at ya! It’s been a weird year for movies and me. Studios have nearly stopped sending DVD screeners, and the studios all have different apps to download in order to watch—lots of hoops to jump through. It’s been a pain in the butt. Oh, and they’ve stopped the Movie Cash option to see offerings in theatres. I don’t know about you, but I find it difficult to judge a film created for a big cinematic experience on an iMac. (I know that doesn’t answer the question you asked…so consider it bonus content.)

      I really like The Fabelmans. It’s a thoughtful look at aspirations and truth.

      Blonde is a fictional (and nasty) replay of the tragedy of being Marilyn Monroe, but Ana Celia de Armas’ performance is worth watching—the fact is, she could win best actress.

      And while I’m not a big fan of Tom Cruise, Top Gun: Maverick is serviceable and entertaining, and I actually enjoyed it. Sometimes, I just need to revisit an old story retold through memorable voices.

      Everything Everywhere All at Once. I have a love-hate relationship with this one. The powerful expression of free will that Evelyn’s character shows kept me with it.

      Let me know what you’ve seen and if you’re more inspired about the 2022 movie season than I have been

      1. Hi. The movie I liked the best is Thirteen Lives. I really enjoyed The Batman too. Call Jane is a good one also.
