I saw puss in boots with my younger teens back in 2011.

I have never seen Shrek and did not know it was the backstory to that film.

I went on the recommendation of the film critics for WORLD magazine. They always had good film reviews. Not the usual dreck.

My gosh. I had no idea. Time sure does pass very quickly. Very quickly.

If you had asked me, I would have said the movie came out in 2019 or so. Made me feel very mortal in that compression of time. Life flies by.

I will say, it is his Scottish accent that really fills the space in his video reviews and makes it entertaining for me...and his weird schtick of splicing together pieces of video he has used hundreds of times before (such as Will Farrell, an actor I don’t care much for, saying “Well, that escalated quickly!) and mixes those in with the same pieces of footage from the actual movie he is reviewing.

Many years ago, I used to go to two or three movies a week, I loved movies. Now, I go to a theater once every few years.

My next must see movie will be on July 3rd, when “Young Washington” comes out.
