As an aside (and I only learned this the past few days), there was a major Mission: Impossible-Bond connection in that Allan Balter (one of the best writers on the original TV series) was married to Lana Wood. http://bit.ly/2GkWOK8

As an aside, the way I read Bamigboye's latest story was that Variety, Deadline and The Hollywood Report (all of which had a piece of the story) were, essentially all correct as far as they went. 1. Variety identified Boyle as a director candidat…

re: MGM fourth quarter results, next in investor call. Should be this month but I don't have the precise date. Go here. Go to 2017 results. Click on conference calls. When there's one labeled "Q4 2017 conference call" the recording will be availa…

re: David Ogden Stiers. Here's a blog post by Ken Levine, who wrote episodes of MASH, with some insights about the actor. Good read. http://kenlevine.blogspot.com/2018/03/rip-david-ogden-stiers.html
