Lisa Marie’s Week In Review: 8/21/23 — 8/27/23


What was the highlight of this week?  I finally watched Wes Anderson’s Asteroid City and I absolutely loved it.

What was the lowlight of this week?  Some will undoubtedly say that it’s Dune Part 2 being pushed back to 2024 but, honestly, that’s not the end of the world.  If nothing else, Dune will probably have the March box office to itself.  For me, the lowlight continues to be the heat.  I’ll be happy when winter arrives.
