Movie Review – Mary Queen of Scots
Let me begin by saying I’ve studied this beguiling queen for decades. I once spent a day at Holyrood Palace walking in the gardens where Mary once walked.

Virgin Movie Review – Sully
—
Let’s just open with this axiom: Tom Hanks can do no wrong. Done. That’s not much of a review, is it? Starting again: I just watched Sully last night for the first time. Somehow, I never heard about “The Miracle on the Hudson.” I shy away from the news, because “news” usually equals “bad news”…

At this time, there are exactly 19 movies in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Ant Man & The Wasp is coming soon (to make an even 20) but that tale will probably be a self-contained story: a palette cleanser after the lingering after-effects of mighty number 19, the Avengers Infinity War.

Origin of RunPee
—
The inspiration for RunPee came after watching the 2005 Peter Jackson remake of King Kong — a 3+ hour long movie. By the end of the movie we were in agony with the need to pee. So much so that we couldn’t enjoy the ending. All I could think was, “When will this ape die…
