that sucks. in the 80's, some people protested and got it removed from my local pbs. think most of them were censored for the most part already.

there is a Benny Hill doc floating around, guy was dead for a while before anyone noticed he wasnt answering his mail or whatever. PBS censored a lot of those shows. but it didnt stop people from watching. it was still a wholesome, funny show with some bawdy humor. channel 9 by me, same network that aired the Howard Stern show and Morton Downey Jr. also aired those Benny Hill episodes with hardly any censorship. those episodes were still killing it up to the 90s. nobody ever got sick of those halfnaked chicks running in high speed with Yakkity Sax playing.

PBS also aired a ton of brit comedy shows during the 70s and 80s. i mean how else would we know about Monty Python, The Goodies, Fawlty Towers, East Enders and Benny Hill? Benny Hill was such a hit here that they imported a lot of stuff including the Paul Hogan Show , years before he did that Crocodile movie.
final note about Benny Hill, after they cancelled his show he died alone and penniless, they should have brought him to the US. everyone i knew at school loved that shit.

oh and that first movie listed, S.O,B.. that movie is known as the only film Julie Andrews pops out her titties. it was glorious.

Probate records show he was worth millions of dollars when he died, actually.

Yeah, because he chose to live his live frugally. He purposely never owned a house or a car.

No Time to Die Needs to Earn $900M to Break Even as the Most Expensive James Bond Movie Ever

A new report claims that, due to the growing costs of No Time to Die, the movie now requires a box office return of $900 million just to break even.
movieweb.com movieweb.com
Breaking this down, No Time to Die was last costed at 214 million pounds according to Companies House in the UK, with the amount having increased from 199.5 million pounds due to interest charges. Now, a year later, that has risen to around 226 million pounds, or $314 million, and once marketing costs have been added into the astronomically priced mix, that comes to around $464 million at the lower end, making that the rough figure No Time to Die will need to make in order to be profitable.
However, where the $900 million box office figure comes into play is due to the split between the cinematic exhibitor and the movie's distributors, with MGM likely expecting to take around 50 per cent of every dollar spent on cinema tickets worldwide, meaning the movie needs to make at least $928 million. And thus, the most expensive James Bond movie was born.

Reminder Spectre barely made money they pissed a fuckton of money away on marketing that shit to get Bond revived again and then the budget for the actual movie was one of the highest.

God bless COVID. Bury this woke fucking trash.

It should be available for streaming on Apple TV but they haven't closed the deal with MGM yet.

There is zero chance of any Hollywood movie clearing a billion in worldwide box office for a while. China has more or less shut down their box office for hollywood and US theaters are half dead for another year now.

The two top box office movies for 2021 are both chinese movies, Hi mom has made $822m in china and Detective Chinatown has made $700m. The next billion dollar movie will be chinese, and the one after that, and the one after that.

Bond's origins and backstory. Was a huge plot that attracted a lot of people to check it out. It was considered a serious deep dive in terms of Bond's personal affairs.

and that asian bond girl was mint

Yeah she had braces, in her first scene jaws smiles at her awkwardly with his metal teeth, then she smiles back with braces to show him it's OK.

Did I get Mandela Effected?

This one has to be proof that there are multiversal cascades which we are falling through, what the fuck.

Maybe we died and our consiousness just woke up in a universe where we lived and for some reason Jaw's Girlfriend's braces is the butterfly event that saved us.
