This trailer for "Spenser Confidential" looks great!
The Netflix movie coming March 6 stars Mark Wahlberg, Winston “Black Panther” Duke, and Alan Arkin.
I wasn’t sure about the movie after reading on Wikipedia that it’s only very loosely based on one of the Spenser books and merely “uses the names of characters created by Robert B. Parker.” I’m a huge fan of the novels, and I was afraid this would be travesty.
But the preview looks great. It has some hints of the novels and the Parker characters, and that’s all – but that’s enough. It looks like it’s going to be its own thing.
A few months ago we re-watched Beverly Hills Cop I and II, and I rewatched Midnight Run. And I’ve seen 48 HRS many times, also Butch Cassidy & the Sundance Kid. I was commenting a few weeks ago that they don’t make action-buddy movies like that anymore. Well, looks like they did this time.

Great short essay by John Gruber. Among other things, he perfectly captures why iPad split screen, slideover and multitasking confuse the jeebers out of me and I almost always don’t bother.
