It is Official - Coronavirus has stopped All Activities

It sounds crazy and unrealistic, but coronavirus has made it. If it's one reason for existing was to disturb life on earth, Yes this is done. As we speak sport, entertainment, and hospitality activities are fully out of function.

"Closed", "Postponed", "Cancelled" are the words we hear and read all the time these days. And, I'm talking about very important international activities. Activities that give sense to the life of billions of people around the globe.

Activities stopped by Coronavirus 

Allow me to mentioned some of the victims of COVID-19 Pandemic Crisis:

• Tokyo Olympic Games 2020

• Tokyo Paralympic Games 2020

• EURO 2020

• Coppa America 2020

• Formula 1 World Championship

• Various marathons in different countries of the world

• Various World Tours from Pop Stars (Dua Lipa's is the last one canceled)

• Various World Premiers of new Hollywood Movies (f.e. Mulan, etc) 

• UEFA Champions League

• Nations League

• NBA 

• Euro Vision Song Contest

• Football National Leagues in various countries 

• Religious Ceremonies 

In addition to all of these social activities, all bars, hotels, restaurants, and other entertainment businesses are closed as well. Even wedding or funeral ceremonies with many people are not allowed.

The only still remaining operative is the kind of businesses that operate or could shift their activity into an online and delivery operation. And, of course, food supplies businesses and pharmacies, police and hospitals.

Life in Coronavirus Time 

Life is pretty simple right now. The focus is only on basic needs. The rest should be waiting for when the crisis will be over. Oh yeah, the $1 million question: When life is going to be normal again?

I only hear experts about this query. Many of them, the ones I call optimists, think the isolation period should last around 5 - 6 weeks. Some others speak for 4 - 6 months, and I hate hearing such a thing 😡😷. Most health experts think COVID-19 will be back in September for the Northern Hemisphere's countries.

In other words, 2020 will the a year full of uncertainties. All plans made will remain hanging on the air, waiting for the situation to turn normal. At best all 2020 plans will be modified to fit with the COVID-19 situation and its consequences.     

I believe we should remain positive and optimistic. COVID-19 pandemic crisis will come to an end soon. Each of us can give a helpful contribution by following the rules of social distancing and personal hygiene. Let's stay in our houses to break the chain of infection spread. Lack of physical contact is the best solution for reducing the longevity of the coronavirus crisis.

No Euro Vision for this Year - Courtesy of Coronavirus

As expected, the Euro Vision Song Festival, the big celebration of European Music was canceled. The show was originally planned to be held in Rotterdam, Nederlands during May 2020. But, organizers announced the full canceling of this year's show.

Another great event that is well-known for its positive messages and great satisfaction for the public needs to be canceled due to the coronavirus pandemic crisis. To be honest, I was surprised why such a decision was not taken before. Considering that we've seen the cancellations of many other continental events such as EURO 2020 scheduled for June.

The delay came after the efforts of the Euro Vision organizing committee to find alternative ways to hold the festival. But, the limitations coming from the pandemic crisis made it impossible for the event to happen this year.

Here is what was announced by the Euro Vision team:

 "The health of artists, staff, fans, and visitors, as well as the situation in the Netherlands, Europe, and the world, is at the heart of this decision. Dutch restrictions on gatherings of large numbers of people and international travel restrictions mean that holding the event, even without an audience, is impossible.  

It's in the DNA of the Eurovision Song Contest to bring delegations, artists and fans together in one place and provide an equal platform for all artists to compete together on the same stage. We felt that under the extreme circumstances we face this year, organizing the Eurovision Song Contest in another way would not be in keeping with our values and the tradition of the event."

Yes, my friends. 2020 spring will be without the Euro Vision Song Contest. There are lots of questions raised and not yet clarified regarding the next edition of the festival. But, there is a long year ahead for all the details to be clarified. 

It seems that coronavirus is eating up all the good things we've worked so hard to have in our lives. But I'm sure, as the euro song team emphasized, Euro Vision will come back stronger than ever.

This is the real man that inspired James Bond character

I believe a few English speakers in the world have not seen the James Bond series. The charming spy that is very capable of women as he is with secrets. I've seen all the episodes played by different actors. And, I must confess. My favorite James Bond is Sean Connery 😍. What about you my friends? Which James Bond you prefer?

Meanwhile, we heard the bad news that the premier release of Bond 25 was postponed in fall, due to coronavirus pandemic 😞. Patients guys. The little virus is definitely influencing our lives.

Who inspired the 007 Characters in the First Place?  

But, is James Bond character simply a fruit of imagination, or a real handsome man has served as a source of inspiration? BBC has explored this query over the years and so far 2 real men are thought to serve as inspiration for the 007 characters.

One is a Serbian playboy, Dusko Popov, who was transformed into a double/triple spy during World War II. He worked for German intelligence services, MI5 and MI6 (British intelligence services), and the FBI in the USA.

The other one is another spy named James Charles Bond from Swansea.

Both these gentlemen had contacts with Ian Fleming, the author of the James Bond story. The personage of 007 James Bond seems a combination of both men. Popov has inspired the charming behavior of a man very capable of women and that could suit perfectly in every environment. While Bond-inspired the legendary name well-known around the world. Fleming is hermetic when it comes to quenching the curiosity of all 007 fans. However, I believe my idea of combined sources of inspiration sounds very logical. Don't you think so my friends?

Whatever is the truth about James Bond's inspiration, we should wait some more months to be able to see the new series of the movie. The same fate has the premiere of "Mulan" and the new shootings of "Fast and Furious 9".

The Famous "Indiana Jones" One More Time in Action

"Indiana Jones" considered the most famous action movie will be shooting the 5th series. The news was revealed by its star Harrison Ford.  

Harrison Ford gave this fantastic news during his interview at Ellen Generis Show. He revealed that the movie is definitely in the works and is set to start shooting this summer.

Ford said he was still 'excited to play Indie, 39 years after originally playing the adventurous archaeologist.

"It's gonna be fun," he told Ellen "I am excited. They're great fun to make."

The producers have not made public yet the title of the new series, which is still called "Indiana Jones 5". It is interesting to see the new adventurous events in the movie and how Ford at age 77 will be able to fill in in the role of Dr. Henry Jones (alias Indiana Jones). 

For all of those not knowing details, the saga of "Indiana Jones" is directed by Steven Spielberg under the production of Frank Marshall. These are big Hollywood personalities, so our expectations are high in the sky.  

I'm so excited about this news, as I'm a big fan of the "Indiana Jones" series. I can't count how many times I've seen each of the movies. And every time I was thrilled by the fantastic adventures and the fantastic feeling the movies left on me.

"Parasite" the Movie that confounded the World

"Parasite" is the big winner of Oscars' Ceremony 2020. The South Korean movie has entered history. It is the first non-English language movie that wins the Best Picture Oscar. 

The reaction of the "Parasite" crew was very emotive and show their surprise. Probably, none of them expected to win not only the big academy award but even 3 more Oscar Statues. It was definitely their night. 

The director of "Parasite", Bong Joon-ho won the Oscar for best director. Another Oscar statue was taken for the original scenario. And the last golden statue was given o "Parasite" as Best International Movie.        

What is the Story of "Parasite"?        

The film is a vicious social satire about two families from different classes in Seoul - one who live in poverty in a semi-basement, and another rich family residing in a large home. The poor family gets infiltrated to the home of the rich family though fraud and lots of intrigues happen. 

"Parasite" movie trailer.

The story of "Parasite" is partly based on real-life stories and it took several years to the director Bong to concentrate and work with it. If he knew this would be the most magical work for his life, definitely he should have done it sooner 😊.   

The 92nd Oscar Ceremony has spoken in Korean. Many people in social networks disagreed with the winner of the Best Picture Award and complained about the show itself. However, Oscar Ceremony remains one of the most attractive cinematographic events each year.

Second Time Oscar Winner - Rene Zellweger is the Best Actress

Rene Zellweger won the Best Actress Oscar Prize, for the second time. She appeared on the stage of Oscar Academy with a pretty elegant look. Her hard work for more than a year to be transformed into the feet of her character, Judy Garland, was fully rewarded.

In her acceptance speech, Rene dedicated the price to Judy Garland and the values she represented to the whole world. She said:        

"Miss Garland you are certainly among the heroes who unite and define us and this is certainly for you. I am so grateful. When we celebrate our heroes, we're reminded of who we are as one people, united, and although Judy Garland did not receive this honor in our time, I'm certain this moment is an extension of her legacy that began on a film set."

The actress that never stops creating fantastic characters (I love Bridget Jones 😍), now at age 50, will surprise the world with the 'one of the most special collaborations and meaningful experiences of my life' as she called her participation at Judy. 

Well done Rene! Oscar Statue looks so right at your hands! 

Her counterpart as Best Actor was Joachin Phoenix.

"The Joker" won the most wanted Best-Actor Oscar

"Run to the rescue with love and peace will follow" - these were the last words in his acceptance speech of 2020 Best Actor Oscar winner, Joachin Phoenix. 

His brilliant play as Joker rewarded him with the first Oscar Prize in his career. 

The 45 years old actor and producer used his speech to address some important messages about environmental issues and standings. And what stage is better than the Oscar Ceremony to appeal to the whole world. 

"When we use love and compassion as our guiding principles, we can create, develop and implement systems of change that are beneficial to all sent yet beings and to the environment."

The most touchy part of his speech was the moment when he remembered with tears in eyes his late brother, the actor River Phoenix. 

I always hated Joker as a character, as it represented the real evil on a human suit.  And this is probably the reason why Joachin Phoenix has today in his hands the so-much-desired Oscar Statue. 

Well done Joachin! Totaly deserved award!    

His counterpart as Best Actress was Rene Zellweger.

Brad Pitt wins Oscar - See his Dedication for the Prize

Yes, it is done. Brad Pitt has made it to win his first Oscar statue. He won the Best-Supporting Actor Oscar Prize for his role of Cliff Booth at the movie "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood". 

I could see the tears in his eyes when he dedicated the prize to his children.

"This is for my kids who color everything I do. I adore You" 

were the words at the end of his acceptance speech.     

He thanked two other people for the Oscar: film director Quentin Tarantino and Leonardo DiCaprio, who played the main role in the movie. 

This is a fantastic moment for all Brad Pitt's fans, who together with him has been waiting for so long to see the Oscar Statue in his hands. Even though he became a Hollywood star since early, he had to wait until turning 56 to get his first statue. 

Well done Brad! You fully deserve the Oscar! I am so happy for you! 

As a big fan of you, I must say this was a great Oscar Ceremony for me 😍.

One Hour with Fantastic Old Crew of "Friends"

The six stars of "Friends" will finally come together for an epic one-off special for HBO. This event is organized to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the beginning of the famous and most loved story of the nineteens.  

10 years working together and then 15 years separation are enough to make all fans hold their breath for this special reunion. I am a big fan of "Friends", and I loved to use their best lines in my daily communications. I can still remember many of them. And, not because I have a strong memory, but because I see the show time after time 😳

Backstage of the Special Reunion of "Friends"

You can imagine how happy I was when I heard the news for this reunion. But, because I am curious by nature, I dig a bit on the backstage of the event. 

The first question I asked was: Why this reunion after so many years? 

The one-off show is designed to help launch re-runs of the show on the new American channel.

 Then, I asked: Why it took so long to arrange the reunion? 

There are three parties involved in the negotiations. The decision came after a tough back-and-forth between the cast’s representatives, WBTV and HBO Max last. Negotiations are thought to have broken down towards to end of last year over cash.

Last question: As cash is mentioned, how much money are we talking about? 

It's thought that Jennifer Aniston, Lisa Kudrow, Courtney Cox, Matthew Perry, David Schwimmer, and Matt LeBlanc are each pocketing a cool $3-4million each by Warner Brothers. While the rights for the re-run of the show go around $425 million. Not bad, right 😎?

Another thing to be mentioned is that Matthew Perry (alias Chandler) dedicated to this reunion the opening of his first Instagram account. Even though he has not written any post yet, he had more than 190,000 followers. 

The only thing to do now is to wait and watch this special reunion we have been waiting for so long.
