SEAN CONNERY as James Bond.

 Sean Connery would've been 94 years old today. Born in August 25th, 1930, he passed away on 0ctober 31, 2020. I've always been a big fan of all his movies but I choose to remember him today as James Bond 007, one of his most famous roles!

SEAN CONNERY'S BIRTHDAY

SEAN CONNERY was born on August 25th, 1930 in Edinburgh, Scotland. 
According to WIKIPEDIA: 
In 2004, a poll in the UK Sunday Herald recognised Connery as "The Greatest Living Scot" and a 2011 EuroMillions survey named him "Scotland's Greatest Living National Treasure".  He was voted by People magazine as the "Sexiest Man Alive" in 1989 and the "Sexiest Man of the Century" in 1999. Connery shares the record for the most portrayals as James Bond with Roger Moore (with seven apiece). In June 1965, Time magazine observed "James Bond has developed into the biggest mass-cult hero of the decade".

The Academy Awards in HD!

Watching certain TV shows in HD screens is not exactly the best viewing experience, especially when most programs are an insult to the average audience!

That's Entertainment?

What a disappointment! Last night's Academy Awards show was really dull and sad. Everyone making political comments and socially significant speeches. What used to be a fun evening has turned into a showbiz grandstanding. Maybe I'm becoming a grumpy old man but for Pete's sake...bring back the fun and glamour of yesteryear!
