willing and ready to meet in 'meat space' & how to insure everyone is
doubly-vaxxed, as well as staff & other patrons, as well as masking policy
& social distancing

Denny's now

REVIEWS:

John O reviewed 'Star Trek Prodigy', a new animated series on Paramount
Plus geared for a younger audience, as they enjoyed the first episode &
highly recommends it
    he then reviewed 'Dune', seen on the IMAX in the Hacienda Crossings
Regal, as the vast screen helped him feel even more immersed in the film
and thinks they nailed the characters spot on and this adaptation is
excellent - highly recommended & urges you going to see it in IMAX

Howeird reviewed a newish movie, 'Alienated' on Prime video, as he found it
to be kind of fun, although they won't win any awards for acting, but the
script is okay

    he also reviewed the latest 'Dr Who' as it seems to him like Jodi
Whittaker is flailing around and way too loud for the role & there are not
much by way of special effects other than the implosion effect, so rated it
as about a '5' on a 1 to 10 scale - and there were comments that the
writing has been lacking

Sandra reviewed seeing 'Donnie Darko' as it was a full restoration of the
film and still holds up pretty good & she says an adaptation of "Wheel of
Time" is going to show up, starting Nov 19 on Prime

captioning'
