Potentially, a very useful accessory- an optical viewfinder with an estimated 35mm equivalent view. What took such an awesome accessory so long to surface?

The optical viewfinder is the retro camera feature that I miss the most. But this $49 accessory adds one to nearly any camera

It’s undeniable that “Fantastic Four - First Steps” is by far the best iteration of the last few decades in story line and provides emotional kicks that made past Marvel movies great.

#KarateKidLegends has all the winning formulae its prequels have. But it tried to do too many things, and the results lack depth and appeal. So, it’s a bit of a mixed bag, at best.

Watched #28DaysLater 4 the 1st time. Dated visuals & scares might not pass today’s scrutiny but it became a classic - it showed the violent side of humanity which was not unlike those that had fallen to the film’s Rage virus.
Do #28WeeksLater & #28YearsLater have similar premise?
