Ballsy:   IDK.  But I’m going with – I have never needed to see a movie less than – “Benedict Cumberbatch with a big mo playing a guy who paints cats”.

Because “why”?  I mean that.  This whole thing is just too bizarre.  “Famed”?  Never heard of him.  The cast?  I’m sure they are fine actors, but … haven’t heard of them either.  

Or maybe I’m just not a “cat person”.  

Whatever.  This just feels too … forced.  

But then, I’m still SO excited for So-Fail’s production debut of the … thing … her sis-in-law wrote.  When is THAT happening?   So Dystopian Floods, much Motherhood.  

I know.  I know.  But … MY GOD!!!!!   This feels like such a pantomime step down.  It’s cringe-worthy.  :S

I’m…touched 😢. Just yesterday we were wondering out loud, “Where art thou Ben?” Ask and you shall receive 😂! Nice to see Ben’s waxed stache and Foy channeling Mary Poppins 😏. Wain’s descent into madness is interesting because it was so well documented. That said there is a bit of a debate as to whether or not Schizophrenia was all Wain was suffering from. It turns out he was still perfectly capable of drawing realistic cats towards the end of his life! He only did so on a whim lending credence to the theory that he was suffering from a neurodegenerative disorder. Back to SunnyMarch though, apparently they are no longer co-producing this project based on the hashtags? I’m sure TCW disaster had nothing to do with that 🙄…

PS: Will start filming in August? Old news is old. Oh Adam you don’t fool us, you daft coattail jockey.
