At its core, this documentary is a pleasant discussion of the impact, gratitude, and celebration of the great actor Peter Cushing (1913-1994)… so I felt inspired to take a similar approach with my words below.
Several months ago, May 2024, I decided it was FINALLY time to watch the two “Doctor Who” motion pictures from the mid-1960’s starting Peter Cushing. Way back when, however, I had an old VHS edition I was given as a gift… but even then, I…

“Skeleton Crew: A Special Look” is a brief behind-the-scenes teaser for the actual full mini-series. The crew enthusiasm is apparent and they seemingly have no side agenda to make things controversial… they just want to make Star Wars ‘fun’ within a kid focused standalone Goonies / space pirate themed adventure.

There’s something to be said about an apocalyptic “Mad Max” movie looking this crisp in 4K. Perhaps the “Black & Chrome” edition will help tone it down and give it a truer grit that my eyes prefer. It may also tone down a lot of the obvious greenscreen sequences. None of that distracted enough to ruin the experience, it was still a fun ride to witness and explore the Wastelands further.
I’ve been somewhat living under a rock with this one…

This movie grew on me as it progressed… but it took about half way through before I was safely buckled into the passenger seat and fully onboard for the ride. It was at that half-way mark that things nicely shifted into 5th-6th gear and the familiar/sappier first half was left in the dust. By the way, turn the volume… up. Edgar Wright knows his way around a playlist.
I don’t know much about Ansel Elgort (“Baby”), but Jamie Foxx, John…
