Viewing Notes

So great to see this in a theater with a sold out crowd! I noticed some new things like the fact that Doc has a nose ring!

Fact: this was the last movie I saw in a theater before all theaters closed due to COVID lockdown. The irony is not lost on me, both in terms of the plot of the movie and the fact that it was a sold out screening.
