Movie Pass Adventures: September 5

John Magaro as Geoffrey Mason in September 5. The picture has been altered to resemble an old television image.

One of the advantages of being a poor history student is that well-known past events in film can still be surprises. The most unrealistic part of the movie: A major television network only has one German/English translator available in Germany.

Retro Streaming Movie Adventures: The Muppet Christmas Carol (1992)

Michael Caine as Ebeneezer Scrooge in The Muppet Christmas Carol. He is all shades of red and black. The background is a grungy green.

My first pure Christmas movie of the year. Maybe my first for several years. A strong choice for returning to the genre.

Movie Pass Adventures: Wicked Part One

Cynthia Eviro as Elphaba in Wicked. Her head and upper body are visible. Her hands are up, out of focus, and partially out of frame. The image has been desaturated and recolored. She has bright green face and hands, and there is a yellow line around her. The background is hot pink.

FALSE ADVERTISING: I don't remember a single wick in this movie. No candle wick, no John Wick... NOTHING.

The same damn shot of the moon with a rocket in his eye that everyone talking about this movie uses.In this version the moon has green highlights and the rocket is red.

Undeniable proof that the moon landings weren't faked.
