9. "Fury Road" Got an Oscar nomination?? SRSLY??!

Jan 2016

We got it from Netflix, and the giggles started about two minutes in.

By the time the guy on the big-wheel-truck was barreling along shooting flames out of the pegbox of his electric guitar, we were hooting so loud I'm surprised the neighbors didn't call the cops.

We turned it off then, and watched a re-run of a Season One "Foyle's War" episode to cleanse the palate.

The only conclusion we could draw is that we have emphatically aged OUT of Hollywood's "prime" audience demographic.

amazedly,
Bright
