So Mr. Bezos, you want to talk more Bond? Bond is back, with Amazon going ahead with a new movie. Let us muse over what we know and what has happened. The longest gap in the franchise’s history, the 28th film is in production, casting for a new Bond is underway, and filming is expected to begin in the coming months. Amazon has full creative control, though many of the details remain unknown. Denis Villeneuve is directing and everything looks promising, but so much could still go wrong. It will be the first Bond film made without EON Productions at the helm. Whether that is enough remains to be seen.

I’ve had my fill and I’m not sure there’s another story here worth telling. On balance, Devil Wears Prada 2 is good and worth watching.

Madame Web’s great sin is being boring, with a terrible movie behind it.

It somehow escaped my mind until I went back to update my recommended film list. But The LEGO Batman Movie is worth talking about. A love letter to a character that Hollywood keeps rebooting without ever really understanding him.
