    Just watched my dvd of Goldfinger. His co-star, Honor Blackman, died earlier this year at age 94.

    If you get to pick a year to check out of this life, 2020 seems like a fine choice.

    It's probably better than Highlander 2.

    Watching it twice might be a mistake, but once is an experience... and yes, better than Highlander 2.

    Actually it's not that bad, it's just, strange. But I haven't seen it in 35 or 40 years so I could be off.
